I've been on it since yesterday and not charged the battery once.

So you have already saved yourself £10-15? \:D/



Correct and no cravings at all, I'm not using it like I would a normal ciggie, I just have a few drags then turn it off.

Put the battery on charge over night, and the spare on charge through the day.
That cartomizer wont last the coils burn out after a few days, get a couple of the ones in my link, I got 2 of them and the first is still running after 3 weeks
I have also got 2 lazylad pass through battery's http://www.vapourzone.co.uk/High-power-Batteries.html
and a car charger, so you can plug it into the car to keep the battery charged and the other is for when at the comp so this also keeps it charged.
Just for those following my progress I am into week 9 :D and saved £162 so far, 2 packs of duty free backy a week at £9 a pack, that would have cost £15 from the supermarket or £270, minus about £50 to get the kit right

Have you got it wired to the car battery Nidge, looks like it.
I have the pass through ones they can plug into the comp or car to keep the battery's full

I charged it last night when it went flat, I've re filled it 6 times so the vendor was right when he said they last 4 days.

Have you got the long wicks in your's Skip, I've noticed that the wicks in mine are very small, I might upgrade to some new wicks.

as i say just a surprise really as long as you dont go back to the fags great.remember the device that really matters is the bit that holds and heats the liquid to produce the vapour.
i struggled thru various clearos,tanks and finally went mental and paid £80 for one of these http://ukvapers.org/Thread-Hi-Def-Revie ... e-Atomiser it sounds expensive but i reckon ive broken even on it now.its easy to rebuild and the flavour is brilliant.

good luck

Obviously, being a non smoker all my life, I don't have a clue about these things, but are these e cigs just a replacement for proper ones or are they meant to be an aid to giving up completely?
