even with that posted im confused. Right now I am having trouble fiquiring out if i have had to much or to little nicotine. THey have nearly the toll on your body in my expeirence.
When I start a new cart, I fill it up until it wont hold anymore then keep topping it off.
Good stuff. Thanks for posting that. Gonna add it to the IBOX.
Maybe a tad but not much.
Found this on Nicotine intake per drop
Here are the calculations I posted in another thread. As I said there, if anyone sees an error in how I'm calculating this, please post a correction and if I can still edit the post I will.
•There are 20 drops per ml of liquid.
•If you have 36 mg e-liquid, there are 1.8 mg nicotine per drop.
•If you have 18 mg e-liquid, there are 0.9 mg nicotine per drop.
•If you smoke Marlboro analogs, they are rated at about 1.1 to 1.2 mg nicotine per cigarette.
•Each drop of 18 mg e-liquid contains roughly the same nicotine as one cigarette. (Slightly less, perhaps.)
•If you're vaping 1ml of 18mg e-liquid per day, you're getting about the same amount of nicotine as from a pack of Marlboros.
I read in one thread that vaping is a less efficient way to get nicotine in your system than smoking an analog. I don't know if that's true. If it is, 1 ml of 18 mg e-liquid is probably somewhat less than a pack of analogs in terms of nicotine actually delivered. (I think this is based on some of the stuff published by that New Zealand "research" company... not sure I'm buying what they're selling, to be honest...).
Anyway, based on the tons of e-liquid I have left after my first week and a half, I'd say I'm somewhere between 1 and 2 ml per day. I'll have to see where I am after a month to get a better idea of actual consumption. I know that I'm still using the same carts without a top-off that I started using yesterday afternoon, if that means anything. I keep two e-cigs ready to give myself two different strengths to switch between.
good. I am trying to fiquire out how much i should have.
Like if the 24 mg drops are 24 mg PER drop? just cant fiquire it out
Well just added some juice and that certainly improved it. Need to order extra stuff now.
sweet !!!! a new smoke free life to start.
That i know i will because i also have a graveyard job and can't smoke there.
I have some trouble with utube - I am on a mcintosh and since i have to have it for my work, i can't play around with my system much. Thinking of getting a pc just for the online stuff.
awesome. Glad we have this board. We started this the same day so I expect you to toss the cigs out by midnight tonight
I agree - i sure don't mind it for smoking and once i get it down to what to use and how much i am sure it will work.
TOns of yutube videos and opinions on this subject.
Think dream has it and this is the way to go.
That may have been my problem - i used only two small drops.
The track is the only one where i smoke less because i usually play 5-6 tracks at once and am busy trying to keep up.
Casinos and stocks make me smoke more too.
I know I can quit somehow. Tried all that gum and garbage and it did nothing but cost me money.
I refuse to get anything like a prescription drug for it because i am afraid of what else i might get that could be worse.
more i hit this 555 ejuice more i like it. Is nutty though. is yours?
Well your carts on your starter kit should have enough for now. and if dripping I think 5 drops is a good medium from what ive watched and read.
Would have been nice if it wasn't white letters on black. I scanned it into my computer and made a 5 page PDF that i can read.
Took me a while to make sure I had it assembled right and still not sure on the amount of juice to put in it. I think maybe i didn't put enough the first time. Will break it in today though.
gambling: tracks or casinos or stock market has ALWAYS made me smoke more.
har. Yea its got a small font forusre
Sure did get the Joye 510 - only thing that got me was the instruction paper - Had to blow it up to read it. LOL
I totally agree with you on that. It is psychological as much as addiction for me. Got to have that comfy zone. I do intend to quit all of it as soon as possible.
Going to the race track to bet the Breeders Cup races this am. That is one place where I don't smoke as much because I am too busy. If i could get the rest of my life in this perspective it would make quitting easier.
I am very hyper and always need something to do.
Stock market doesn't help either - think i smoke more when i trade LOL
more i hit it .. more i dig it. Puffing on it now with a.m. second cup of coffee. Does have a very good throat hit.
You get the Joye 510?
toss em dude. save your life
Not yet. Want to make sure I will stay with this.
Definitely different - I think experimenting with the taste is what is going to make it for me. I sure hope so I am so tired of smoking but nothing else has helped me quit.
you get rid of all normal cigs? Full transition?
Just trying mine today too.
I got menthol but i can't really tell if it is for sure.
Will take some getting used to.
gl to us all
it does have a good throat hit but will take some getting used to cause it actually has a vaporish feel. Also I have nothing to compare it to. I would say that it is equivelant to the real deal ... just different.
As far as this 555 e-liquid it has a bit more of a nutty flavor then I like. (not a huge nutty guy)
Last cig was this a.m. with coffee and now on ecigs. God help us all !!! lol.
I ordered enough empty carts that have the stuffing.
I did try the tea bag mod. Works well but I think it can be modified better. Still working on it.
How is your e-liquid? Does it have a good throat hit if you take a long slow drag? That's the key imo.
I keep the cart as full as possible. I'l take about 10-20 long drags on it and put 2-3 more drops in.
I'm still experimenting. That's where this board can come in handy.
What is your initial thought about it??
I saw that video before and it may be the way to go.
you direct dripping or restuffing?
i got the strongest ... I think its 25 mg.
got mine today. Took a hit and found it very enjoyable but still on the cigs. Have 2 left (one for pre bed and one in a.m.) after that I only smoke cigarettes that are electronic ;)
What strength of nicotine did you get?
Mine should be here today - can hardly wait.
I am so ready to quit but need help.
Just tried the 555 from Vapor kings.
Taste is OK, great vapor but next to no throat hit.

I give it a 5 out of 10. Not recomended.
epuffers 555 is MUCH better.

yea. 2 ... alright. just fear running out of stuff in 3 weeks of non smoking and not being ahead of the game and boom .. i smoke a real cig again.
You are getting 2 right? Like I said, you can clean them when they stop working and they'll work again (so they say).
You should be ok for a while.
oh dang well I need to possibly order more atomizers right away then.
I've read that the batteries last months and the ionizers last weeks. With the atomizers, once they stop working, there was a video suggesting soaking it with pop (coke) for about 10 minutes, putting it in boiling water for a while and letting it dry for a day.
Very important ecig review
sweet. as I was looking at them one review talked about the atomizers goign out. do you know how long they last? and how about the recharable batteries?
Don't forget to do this... (From the sticky)
Even after this, the first few drags may taste a little funny but it gets better.
"Second, blow out your atomizer. The atomizer comes from the factory with a “primer fluid” to keep it moist, but it tastes terrible. Simply place your mouth over the threaded end and blow hard onto a paper towel until no more liquid comes out. "
nice. cant wait ... im sooooo eager with anticipation

Hello all:
I put out my last cigarette on October 8th, 2009 and started using an e-cig (Electronic Cigarette). I have not had a real cigarette since.
This board is open to discuss the e-cig and anything associated with them. I think it will be a useful board as people can share their experieces.
I'm using the titan 510 'manual'. There are other 510s out there as well, all the same, just different names but they all say '510'. I also got the PCC (charging box) for the 510 which is a must have.
The 510 is a refillable e-cig so you can buy e-liquid which is MUCH cheaper and have more of a flavor variety to choose from. I am VERY happy with this model and its performance.
The 510 is the most popular e-cig so it can be hard to find a supplier that has some kits in stock.
DO NOT buy "smoking everywhere" e-cigs. The reviews on them are horrible.
You can search youtube. There are a lot of reviews out there for all type.
Here is a review of the 510: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7YWmRSa4tEM
Here is a good educational video on e-cigs. Start with the first one if you are interested.

Nicotine levels: http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=43313652
btw, I feel like my lungs are twice the size as they were. These are life savers and soooo easy to replace a very bad habit.
I wish all smokers the best of luck when attempting to quit no matter what avenue you choose.
This thread is mainly about the e-cig but if anyone wants to discuss other quiting methods, they are welcome.
