THATS it. Thanks!

"Just think of what smoking a pack a day, every day, can do to your teeth!". Gotta love that. Never mind about the lungs, worry about the teeth. A smiling corpse always looks good!

Okay so how much nicotine am I getting with e smoking compared to analog. If I order ejuice at 24 miligrams, does that mean I am getting that with each cartridge I fill? Because I think the nicotine in an analong is like 1.5 mgs. That would be like 20x as much for ecigs. I did not major in math nor do I pretend to. Someone help with this equation.

Thanks a ton!

I can easily answer this one for you, (as a former two pack a day smoker).

I bought 2 30ml bottles of Menthol that were received on 6/15, three weeks ago today. Right now, I am down to 5 of the 3ml travel bottles until my order arrives, which will easily last me 2 or 3 days. So two bottles lasted about me 3 and a half weeks.

At $20.00 each, $40 plus S&H spent for 3 1/2 weeks of vaping. Figure $45.00

Compare that to smoking 2 packs of analogs a day for the same period. $7.00 (and that's cheap) a pack x 2 packs a day = $14.00/day x 17 days = $238.00 in analogs burnt during the same period.

So, what does that mean? I ended up saving $193.00 for the past three and a half weeks I used to buy two more kits and more e-juice. And all the while, I still save money.

The government hates that, and they can suck my .

I thanks for that. I am just wondering If by dripping 24mg into my carts, am I getting 10x the amount of nicotine than that of an analog?

Just ask the FDA. Those idiots should know

Okay I think I might have figured it out. If 1 ml contains 11mg of nicotine from my e juice at a total of 330 mg of nicotine per 30ml. And say a regular pack of analogs contains about 40mg of nicotine. 15 days of a pack of analogs a day = 495mgs and 15 days of total 30ml ejuice bottle consumption = 330mgs. So still less nicotine with the ecigs.

I don't want to just rock. I want to ROCK and ROLL.

But I just want the truth put forth. It can be done, with out collective foots smashing down at once, it can be done.
