    anyone else NOT want to quit?

    As with many, my goal is the simply eliminate my dependency on nicotine. I don't enjoy being addicted to a substance; activities I'm fine with. I'm currently at about 2-4mg of nicotine. Once I hit 0, if I quit vaping completely afterwards I'll have no problem with that!

    Losing weight

    I've been able to lose about 30 pounds since quitting cigarettes. The mere fact that I can breathe easily made that possible!

    Moving up

    Smoktech Magneto and an Igo-L or Igo-W seems to be a go-to entry level mechanical/RBA setup.

    New eCig User - Hello and would like a bit of help...?

    You can use anything with 510 or Ego threading, down to roughly a 1.6 ohm coil on an Ego battery. The H2 bottom coil clearo is simply what came with it. Compatibility comes down to two major factors. 1) Threading, in 95% of the time it's 510. 2) Ohms...devices have an amperage limit based on...

    The Magneto or the MVP?

    Unless you are planning on doing sub-ohm vaping (hopefully you understand the principles if you are), the MVP would be the way to go. You can still use rebuildables on the MVP, down to around 1.2 ohms. Otherwise, the only benefit to a mechanical mod, the Magneto, would be smallish form factor, a...

    MVP or vamo

    I went from a Vamo to a MVP just recently, and I gotta say that both are awesome first mods. I had the Vamo for over a year, and it never gave me problems. The length is a bit rediculous, especially in the 18650 battery configuration, but the look, feel and functionality is really top notch for...

    6 days and counting

    It sounds like you're just dehydrated more than you're used to. PG/VG plus coffee would definitely require a lot of H2O :). Might I suggest Smart Water? I love that stuff...and it's Vapor Distilled!! It's meant to be used by us vapers!

    Is dry burning really such a good idea...?

    It's fine to rinse and dry-burn a few times, that is if you're refilling with the same/similar juice. If you're swapping flavors, it's best to do a thorough cleaning...some flavors just don't play well with others. After a while, you'll learn what works for you and the longevity of your...

    6 days and counting

    Congrats on making the switch! In regards to vape tongue, are you staying well hydrated? During the first few weeks, you're going to be really dried out from the PG/VG. Just make sure you're drinking enough water and you'll be fine. I've been vaping for over two years now, and I still will get...

    Speaking to kids about E-cigarettes

    So I stepped outside of the office for a few to have a nice vape break. As I was vaping, I heard a kid behind me say,"Hey, can I see your hookah pen?" I turned to see a child, about 12 years old, fascinated by my "hookah pen." I was using my MVP and a protank, and he excitedly said," Wow, that's...

    Trying this again...

    Hang in there! The trick is, as you said, to find that magical juice to keep you satisfied. For me, it was something as simple as Rootbeer. I love the taste of the rootbeer barrel candies growing up, and was hooked the moment i tried it. I spent all those years sucking down ash trays, and all of...

    Why B&M stores have to be higher priced. Should Manufacturers have minimum pricing?

    Excellent customer service definitely helps mitigate the feeling of paying more for something you know you can get cheaper. Couple that with the sense of being a "regular" and at home at a shop is what justifies my willingness to shop at a B&M. However, marking things up too much is silly...

    I just moved from Birmingham this last June, and if I recall, Great Lakes Vapor was located in Dearborn. Aside from that, I never saw, nor heard of, any Vape shops. But this community is growing out of control, so they may be popping up! Check that...just saw the link from above and it's in...

    That's awesome! Congratulations and well done! It's definitely cases like this that need to be shared publicly so that the world can be more informed about the effects of vaping! Thank you!

    My story to share as it relates to my health...

    So I began "vaping" in the fall of 2011. My wife and I were out running errands when she pointed out a sign in a gas station window. She, being my wife and a surgeon, always had her reservations with my smoking, but she allowed me to make my own decisions; one of which lasted far longer than it...

    Who else is bored ?

    I hear ya! I waited for over two years to decide to enter to RBA scene this week! Looking forward to doing something new with vaping!

    Suggest a mod for a newbie

    There's so many devices out there, that it's rather difficult to narrow it down to just one. Being that you want it for home use only, that does help quite a bit though. As others have suggested, Provari's are of great quality, but you are really paying for a US made device. The Vamo, Lavatube...
