See that little white thing on the very top of the cartomizer? You should be able to get that off, put liquid onto the filler material (just a drop at a time and don't get any liquid into the center hole -- try not to over fill). Put the cap back on and vape. You can buy replacement cartomizers (with your battery, it's a fixed 3.7 volts), you'll want to stick with either a 1.5 ohm or 1.8 ohm cartomizer. Any higher resistance and your battery won't be able to give you enough oomph to heat the coils before the 10 second cut off. If you're refilling, make sure to use the same liquid as the filler material will hold onto the last flavor you put in. If you wind up with two flavors that don't play well with each other, it's going to taste nasty. Some other flavors like a fruit and a vanilla would taste pretty good together though. You can get empty cartomizers for pretty cheap: http://www.litecigusa.net/Smoktech_510_1_7ohm_Single_Coil_Blank_Cartomizers_p/510-smok-1.7-blk.htm $6.95 for a 5-pack of cartomizers. I've done business with Litecig before and never had a problem. Man, but I had a hard time finding these LR (1.7 ohm) cartomizers. The Vapor Talk store only had 2.0 ohm and up. Same thing with The Veteran Vaper. While there's nothing wrong with cartomizers, they're pretty old school. We need to get you into a few tanks with replaceable bottom coils. Much cheaper and I'm sure you'll like the taste of the juices better.

And by the looks of your picture, it's a very small eGo battery -- probably a 400 mAh. You'll definitely want to get a back up for that -- most likely something with longer battery life like 1300 or 1600 mAh so one battery can last all day. You don't want to have to wait for the battery to finish charging. Sing with me: ~back ups, back ups, you can never have too many back ups! Tanks, batteries, chargers, juices, etc.

By using just your description, it's impossible to tell what you have. Can you upload a picture so we can see? The more detail the better. Welcome to Vapor Talk. We'll be happy to help you spend some money and will promise to only steer you to genuine name-brand, quality equipment and vendors.

What Comp said. Thank you for your service! And welcome to Vapor Talk.

Yep. A week of steeping is good. Two or more and it becomes spectacular!

Step 3. Hide real set from significant other so he doesn't take it out of your toolbox and put it into his where you won't ever find it again.

You're a GENIUS, Earthling! Thank you, cutting back on the airflow did the trick.

Just built a simple single coil using 30 gauge A-1 Kanthal on an 18 mm bit, 6 wraps (1.2 ohm) in my new Magma RDA and I'm running it wide open. This thing is amazing! Except that at the 3 second into the draw...it pops. I'm not too concerned about hot juice exploding in my mouth as I'm using a 2.25" drip tip. Other info is it's on a Magneto with a Sony VTC4. I'm not sub-ohming so I'm not too concerned about the battery. My question is this: is the popping something I need to be concerned about? I've never had this happen before in a build so I'm not sure what to do or think. What causes this popping? How can I make it stop? Did I do something wrong? Any help is very much appreciated.

See? I knew there was someone who would find it useful!

There's somebody somewhere who desperately needed that review, you know. Probably. The lack of oxygen up here does strange things to people.

The regular sized Nautilus is $25.95 at the VT store. The mini is $25. The vertical coil will work in both . So far, these seem to be the best tanks around for flavor and performance. My deepest condolences on your dad's passing, Patricia. Update: The mini is $24

I think we tried something like this once and only managed to help others spend even more in the guise of commiserating with them over how much they spent on vape gear. Lol.

I believe most of us on this forum pay it forward, some more than others and many prefer to keep silent about it. We have a great bunch of members here who just rock!

We're all happy to help. I'm glad you were able to get that fixed, and now you're truly on your way to being a non-smoker.

Hola.

My B&M have excellent employees who recognize awesomeness when they see it.

Broke down and bought a genuine Magma RDA from my local B&M. It turned out to be $50 less than the posted price.

What Comp said. Here is a rough estimate: 24 mg of nic is roughly equal to full flavor cigarettes like Marlboro Reds. 12 mg nic = Marlboro Lights 6 mg nic = Ultra lights Keep in mind that these are just guidelines and are not exact, but it will give you a ballpark to start in. I was a pack a day Marlboro Light smoker but I started with 24 mg of nic until I got off the analogs for several months. Then, I dropped it down to 12 mg for daily use. Now, I'm all over the place. When I can't vape very often I go to 24 mg so I can take a few draws and I'm good for a bit. During a "normal" day, my go-to is 12 mg. At night when I'm chain vaping to my heart's content I'm now dropping it down to 6 mg so I don't get too much nic. YMMV.
