    Could some experienced e smoker possibly tell me how many drags you may expect to get from 9 drops of e-liquid in a cartridge.
    Thanks.

    That's a difficult one to answer as I guess it would depend a lot on the device you are using.

    FWIW I get about 15 drags from 2 to 3 drops when direct dripping on my ego

    Just counted: I'm getting 10 good drags from 2 drops when dripping. Don't know about the cartridges tho.
    Has anybody tried flavorings from www.flavourartexpress.biz for diy? Are they ok? Is ok to mix their "ice blade" nicotine base 36mg with PG to get 12 mg liquid and then add some VG and flavorings? Just want to mix my own juice and not sure yet what should I mix....
    Btw has anybody tried thei vape wizard? Is it worth a try?

    Thanks. So that would mean approx 50 drags from 9 drops. 9 drops fill the Jasper cartridge and thats what I got last night. The guy on utube suggests im using it wrong but if anyone gets 180 odd drags from a Jasper cartridge please let me know.

    From what I've read the majority of people seem to end up using around 2 to 3 mls of juice per day. Most ex smokers being 20 to 30 a day users.

    Given 20 drops per ml that would be somewhere between 40 to 60 drops per day. The claim of 180 drags from 9 drops just seems ridiculous to me, exaggerated claims won't help vendors or users.

    You can get 180 drags. They just have to be very tiny.

    In the youtube video the guy is using a pre filled Jasper & Jasper and he gets 196 drags with loads of vapor right till the end, definitely not possible with the Jasper.

    The youtube videos are misleading ,When I started with e-cigs I bought the highly acclaimed DSE-801 and the guy in the video got huge vape off it and right till the end of a pre filled cart.The reality was very different and I wasted 60 euros on it and pre filled carts.If its the same guy im thinking of he's in all the videos promoting every kind of e-cig

    I have tried their liquid which is pretty tastless and boring. As a supplier they went against all other suppliers in choosing to push the UK Government for a medicalised environment selling e-cigs. They have been pinning their hopes on being the only company allowed to sell e-cigs if restrictive legislation comes in so on UK Vapers, for example, they are very unpopular. I personally won't buy from them again on that basis.

    That's terrible if it happens.I would buy nothing off them based on that alone.

    Yeah a bad e-cig can put people off.I would recommend the Joye eGo ,I have three of them and they are robust and excellent for vape.Big long drags each time.I would also recommend buying liquid and just drip onto the filler inside the cartridge.liquids ,menthol is very good

    That cig is smaller looking than the one I have.Mine is about the thickness of a cigar and isn't a starter kit.Im not mad on tobacco flavours although some people are.liberty flights tobacco liquid is meant to be one of the best tobacco liquids around.I have ordered some of their other flavours which I hope to get tomorrow.1 30mil bottle lasts me 1 week.I used to smoke 20 blue per day.I haven't smoked in months

    I can't believe i'v never heard of these before, my sister showed me this thread and I ordered the Joye eGo starter pack last Thurs so hoping to have it tomorrow or Tues. I smoke around 3 cigs on a normal day but on a night out or when I have a drink I could easily smoke 20-30 so my lungs are feeling pretty ****ty after the christmas season. Thanks for this thread, really informative and a life saver if it works out for me :)

    Get yourself some liquids and just refill the pre filled carts you'll be suprised how good it is

    The difference is in the battery only. The eGo is no different to any 510 pack except for a battery that lasts most of the day whereas the one you link to there has a battery that will only last a couple of hours.

    Yeah I got my ego from thevapourstore too. But joye 510 I got off that shop. Both batteries died just after a couple of days. So I'd be very carefull buying from them. Maybe it was just a bad luck tho.

    You didn't by any chance charge the regular 510 batteries in the eGo charger?
