| Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving holiday!
I'm still a n00b at vaping. I have been enjoying my Tornado eCig with the USB Bypass by dripping directly onto the atomizer. I went looking for other brands of eJuice and clicked on one of the ads here for Johnson Creek. Browsing through the site, I found this statement:
"Drip, Dripping:
Bypassing a cartridge and dropping Smoke Juice directly onto the atomizer. Johnson Creek Original Smoke Juice strongly advises against using this method."
Am I doing something wrong by dripping? |

| I drip. I have my eGo 900 mAh battery, a simple 510 atomizer, and my drip tip. Oh yeah, and a cone for my eGo. The cone is what makes my dripping experience less irritating. Dripping, when you drip more than you vape (id est more than three drops), you end up having some leak out of the air holes fashioned in the atomizer. The cone actually helps to keep that juice from leaking down the battery as the threads seal off the bottom.
Dripping while driving is not a good idea. The only exception that I will make, as I do so myself, is to toss in three drops at a red light/stop. I won't drip while in motion. That's why I generally drive with a copilot. They can handle dripping it in there for me.

| I got pulled over last week in a small Pennsylvania town for messing with my dispenser bottle and drip tip at a traffic light. (They're cracking down on cell phone use while driving these days.) So the cop saw this probe-like thing with a coiled cord and a battery and thought I was trying to take my own temperature with a digital thermometer. He said he could have given me a ticket if he wanted to for distracted driving and recommended I stay off the road if I was so sick that I had to monitor my temperature that closely.
I started to explain what I was really doing and then thought....Nah! I just thanked him and made a decision to chew nicotine gum while driving from now on. | |

| The carts still have a funky taste to them no matter how well I fill them. Haven't tried a cartomizer yet. I'll probably be getting something better than my Volcano starter kit soon. The battery that came with it is puny compared with my portable LiPo battery and PT rig of course.
I can't believe I haven't killed the original atty yet with the higher current and voltage but I have a spare. I'm still trying to figure out what to get from reading the posts here. | |

Seriously try the CE'2 XL cartos or the mega cartos for ego. Gets away from the filling problem with typical atty cart

i am getting new stuff on monday and have read nuttin but good reviews on the lecig.com pig cig with the extra large d1 cartomizers.
also the tea bag reference is to using a specfic tea bag with out the tea and using that in the cart. i have not had good luck in a cartomizer but a cart is what every one said works best. or some outher filling. if you had bad juice in the cart you may want to clean it.
i did a post about how to diy clean one time use cartomizers but if it is not clean a mix may give bad flavor.
since i cleaned the junk juice out of my cartomizers i have mixed my flavors from vt vapor with out any complaints... | |
