  1. We don't warranty against general wear and tear which sounds like what it is. But if you'd like to fill out a warrenty claim you are welome to in the support system :)

    Naw, I won't waste your time or mine.....I guess I only asked since I took the time to figure out my total spend in vaping since the beginning of the year this morning - OUCH.

  2. Well thats kind of whats happening. I wouldnt think I have hit the 300 charges, normally each one is charged once a day.

    I think when it comes off the charger I will hit it with the volt meter to see what I see.

    So since you replied Chris, what was/is the warranty on there (yep I got it from you).

    I do have a mod on the way but I might just pick up a pass through since so much of my daily vaping is here in the home office with 2 puters running all day.

  3. So I have my eGo for just under 2 months now. I have one battery that is starting to worry me. I feel like the battery dies much quicker than the other, it occasionally works inconsistently. One minute it works, then the next not so much, then i jiggle the atty a bit and it works again.

    Are these the warning signs of a battery thats about to crap out on me? If so, is two months a realistic time for this?

    thanks

  4. Got it.. so the juice would go around that little wic looking thing in the atty.. I cant wait to get my juice today and try it. I smoked for 40 years and I cannot believe that I quit smoking 11 days ago. The same day I got my tornado. No more smoke smell on my clothes.. I dont even want a cigarette at all. I tried many times to quit. I just wish this had been around 20 years ago.. Thanks for all the help

    Yep, you got it.

    Let us know how it works out for you!

  5. I just got the regular tornado.. so are you saying a tornado is the same as a joye ego then? Please don't think I am stupid, although I do feel very stupid about this.. So I have the cartridge here with the filler removed.. so I put the drops of liquid in the empty cartridge and then just put the atty on top of it.. connect it to the battery and that is it? Is that what you are saying? Does that use the liquid up alot faster? I am waiting for more liquid today.. I am all out and I really dont want a cigarette so I have to wait it out.. thanks so much

    Not at all, its all overwhelming at the beginning so I totally get it.

    You are close but not exactly. You have the battery, with the atty attached, and the cone cover. Stand it up on the table on the fat flat battery end. With the blank cartridge removed from the atty look down into the ecig - thats your atty bridge you are seeing, drop a few drops 2 or 3 right onto the bridge, put the blank cartridge back on and vape. You might want to take a tissue and dry out the inside of the blank cartridge first just the grab any juice on the side walls first.

  6. Hey there

    So the Tornado is an branded "Joye eGO". You didnt mention if you have a tornado tank, or a standard one. The tank has the 1.1 ML clear or blue tanks that you fill up with juice, verse a cartridge that you saturate with Juice.

    So a few things. the Tornado (standard) has a 510 atty, so any drip tip that works with a 510 atty works with the tornado. Also if you want to try out dripping, just take the filler out of your cartridge, remove it and drip into the atty, put the empty cartidge back on as a mouthpiece and you are good to go. I used this method for several weeks before I bought some drip tips.

    If you have a tank model you only need to get a new 510 atty, and atty cover and drip tip, these will fit on the tornado (eGo) battery without any adapters.

    As far as how you drip, go check out this video, http://www.vaportalk.com/forum/forum/forum/topic/7308-how-to-direct-drip/

    Let us know if you need more information.

  7. This really is a great question, sadly with no answer in sight. With increased usage, and attention will come increased focus by regulators.

    If I had to speculate, which is all one can really do, I would predict the availability and supply of eLiquid will not disappear. It will become regulated in some form or fashion and will likely be taxed as a sin tax since federal and state governments are just as addicted to the tax revenues they receive from smokers as we are to the nicotine.

    Flavors will dry up as well - but that can easily be self remedied as long as they allow the sale of unflovored juice.

    Just my thoughts - who knows I could be way off base, but thats where I see this going in about 2 to 4 years.

  8. Well the "Juice crap" is the key to vaping so any choice you make is going to involve the juice. It seems like a lot of effort when you first begin the process of vaping verse smoking but trust me it quickly becomes no more of a hassle then lighting a ciggy was. A couple of drops and you are good to go.

  9. Hey there and welcome to the forum. The PA folks should be along shortly with any information they have for you. In the meantime welcome and good luck with your vaping!

  10. Darn it you guys.. I swear this is the LAST thing I'm buying now until I break even.. :)

    I ordered the 3 mL sample pack.. Apple pie, cake batter, bacon (I just have to try it..), Cappuccino, and chocolate peanut butter brownie.

    Plus they have 15% promo code for first timers if you enter SWEET :)

    I know right - gezzz peeps - I think I am going to have to do this, now five flavors....plus I have to do a shamrock shake!

  11. I have to tell you - I have been looking at their site and considering making a purchase, but call me crazy the one time accountant in me kicked in and their pricing is a bit weird if you ask me.

    For example all assuming a 18 MG so plus 50 cents

    a 5 X 3ML sample pack works out to 39 cents per ML

    but a 5 x 15 ML sample pack is 70 cents per ML

    a 5 x 30 Sample pack is 61 cents per ML

    Then individual flavors work out to be the 3 ML/ 83 Cents, 15 ML / 70 Cents, and 30 ML / 68 Cents ?!?

    It seems odd to have the sample packs be cheaper then ordering individual flavors outright, it almost encourages you to just order the "5 x 30 ML" sample pack every time you order as it would save you over 10 dollars for an order of 150 ML.

  12. Hello and welcome, as you can see the trend of many of the posters here is to provide you with personal accounts and help you with the core information that will help you find the right choice. It seems so many of us (me included) started out with the - "I want it to feel like a cigarette" thinking - only to find out battery life is and will always be one of the critical issues that a new vapor finds in determining if this change in habit makes sense.

    So for what its worth - I bought the ciggy style and it just frustrated me, I switched to the eGO with the longer battery life and its made the world of difference. Its light and comfortable in the hand, it vapes like a champ and it works consistently for hours and hours. I start with a freshly charged battery every morning, work from home and chain vape in my home office and around 4 in the afternoon switch over to my second battery.

    Everyones needs and preferences are different - yet so many here point to the eGo, I think that speaks volumes.

    Good luck and feel free to ask anything that comes to mind.

  13. Crap now I have to try another supplier - Urgh, so far one of my favorites have been the vanilla flavors (vaperite french vanilla) but I would really like to find THE flavor, it seems like you all are quite pleased with sweet vapes - I might just have to give them a go, although I am starting to build up a lot of so-so juice here.....urgh.

    P.S. I see they also have shamrocky shake now, having had my first ever shamrock shake yesterday thats somewhat tempting!

  14. So far I am enjoying two of the four flavors I got from them

    Both the Andy's mint which is a classic chocolate mint is very nice and the Maiden Coffee are working for me.

    As noting vapor production is not the greatest (80/20 PG/VG) and I would expect more vapor, but I can live with it.

    But the Dr. Pepper and Vanilla Gorilla are not working out so great, neither has enough flavor for my taste. I am not getting a funny taste, more just lack of any real taste.

    I guess since I got the juice at 50% I should be happy 50% of the order is working for me but not so much that I would think I would repeat with them.
