Are people refilling their carts with the E9s or just throwing them away?
I have tried refilling my carts but seem to have some difficulty in "judging" how much is the right amount to put in (and have had some overflow issues).

This is primarily the reason why i have ordered the eGo-T as i like the idea of "no mess - no fuss" refilling with their tank system.

6-10 drops to refill for an e-9 cartomiser...Make sure you can see through it! if you over-fill genty blow through the mouthpiece end and collect the overflow on a tissue (keep the fluid off your skin).

I ordered one as well - got shipped today.

In hindsight I'd advise the following:
  • Get at least two long batteries for the E-cigs E9. I'm constantly running out of battery power during a day.
  • Use a higher than what you expect nicotine level as vaping doesn't have the same nicotine transfer it seems as smoking.
  • The E9 probably isn't the best option. Good for public use.
  • Cartomisers are not the best with the E9. Don't seem to last as long as they should.
  • Getting a bit annoyed between the cartomiser problems and battery consumption.
  • Probably best to get into the habit of mixing your own nicotine levels with your favourite flavouring.

I'm still vaping but am looking forward to not being beholden to cartomisers which are hit n miss with vapour delivery. That with the battery issues is leading to some frustration.

Tried analogue again and it just tasted like licking an ashtray. Couldn't finish it.

Looking forward to when the Ego-T turns up. Hopefully tomorrow.

Thanks Wayne. Can feel the benefits already, smells back, tastes are great and quite new (in comparison), even went to the pub and didn't have a cig with beers.

Just really hoping that my supply of carts gets me to when the next delivery from China comes with nicotine liquids to mix with the E-juices I ordered from Aus.

Not having much luck lately with prompt deliveries lately.

In the end, having missed out on smoking about 60-75 analogue cigs since Tuesday is a great start for a chain smoker that I was. I'm not expecting miracles and any "lack of cigs" is worth every second. I am wondering how I'm going to get off the nicotine though.

Baby steps as Tino would suggest

It's a learning curve - my favourite thing to learn is I don't need a lighter in my pocket now BUT miss carrying my favourite bottle opener

Curious why you guys aren't using products such as Smokestik like Katherine Heigl uses?

Or are these the same but re-branded?

I saw the Letterman interview she did with the e-cig and it seemed pretty nifty.
