I've been vaping a few months now, tried quite a bit of kit, and found some nice little tips along the way, so now i'd like to pass that on and help any new vapers who'd like any questions answered.

So, feel free to ask any vaping related questions in this thread, and i'll try to find you an answer.

;)

whats your routine for trying new liquids? do you fil a new carto and then chuck it if you dont like or drip onto an atty and then clean it and move onto the next?

hi jambo, like vapeman says, an atty is much better for testing liquids, that way you don't waste a whole carto. you get better flavour dripping too.

A bridgeless atty like the bauway 306 is good too, because there isn't all the wick in there holding juice.

if you blow it out through the drip tip, into some tissue, you should be able to fill it with a new juice and get a clean taste.

have a good one

Did I mention I can't feel that either? That one's blocked so I'll go for the right, - thanks.

Sorry about that Boad, I was having a moment; good coverage of your particular prob in Health and Legal but you're probably sorted by now.

No, it's all coming back to me now and I've not gnashed my tongue off this time. (more to everyone's disappointment) :wub2:

Hi easy, watched your reviews, they're very good, thanks for them.
I just ordered the mini mixing kit from vapourzone, so I'll be doing my first mix this week. I've read all the guides in the mixing forum so got a basic idea where to start.
Wondered if you have any tips of your own for a noob. I've ordered the usa mix.
Are there any other flavours you would recommend?
Thanks
Paul.

If 901, I would recommend the V3 50mm refillable cartomisers from Jacvapour... http://www.jacvapour...36&product=2192 I have refilled two of them 20 times each now, and still good flavour and absortion.

But I thought the Screwdriver was 510 fitting ?... if so a 510 to 910 adapter would be needed to use the V3's.

the USA mix is good mate, but you'll need quite a high percentage in the mix. i use about 15/20 drops per 5ml. i'd say don't try measure your flavourings to start, add them drop by drop and taste it so you know where you're at.

remember to let them steep, they might not taste great for a day or two.

hi mate, it'll probably be 901, and if that's the case, you'll be a little limited with what native atties you can use. mainly the 901, lol. like alan said, if you get an adapter, you can use any 510 stuff on it. for cartos i would recommend the bottom coils.

OK :good:
As in the intro thread I mentioned I'm an E-lite user and I've come to the conclusion that its time to look at refilling the Carts, the actual refilling isnt causing me any problem as I've already stripped several down just to see whats inside, also watched all the Cart refill vids so the refill isnt the problem, however I'm unsure of the Nic levels I should be looking at as Elites say their regulars are 2.4% per ml and their menthols are 1.6% per ml , this doesnt really equate very well to the juice folks ?

Any idea what Nic levels I should be looking to buy when I get just the juice ??
