Not me. Once I move on from this planet I will not give a :censored: what happens here.

LOLx1001+2 :lol: :lol: :lol:
I don't give a :censored: about what happens on this planet currently because it's very plain to see that the trajectory isn't good and it's completely out of my control. I just do my best not to contribute to the pollution and corruption, and will enjoy sitting back, watching, like at the end of Fight Club but with a vape in my hand. :toast:

I think we are in the midst of a negative development within the EU but also in UK.
They sit together and create new tobacco rules and in that pot is also everything that is used for electric cigs, UK is included i those new regulations.
When the bureaucrats work on something, it rarely turns out well for the common man in the street.
You are correct. Money and power is the root of all evil.

What Device and E Liquid combo is everybody using?

I vape from 3 Vaporesso Luxe XR pod systems, and 1 GeekVape L200 box mod system. The box mod uses 2 18650 batteries, and I rotate through 2 stacks of 18650 batteries with 20 batteries in each stack. I use one GeekVape coil in the box mod.

In my pod systems right now I'm vaping Charlie Noble Pistachio RY4 at 25mg/ml.

In my box mod right now I'm vaping:
- Five Pawns Castle Long Reserve at 12mg/ml
- Element eLiquid Pink Lemonade at 6mg/ml
- Charlie Noble Pistachio RY4 at 12mg/ml

and to a lesser extent I am also vaping:
- POET Grandma's Lemon Cake at 12mg/ml
- The One at 6mg/ml
- Five Pawns Nana Berry at 12mg/ml
- Cuttwood Tobacco Trail at 12mg/ml

HEADS UP - NEWS - UPDATES! (When we know, you'll know!)

The WHOLE story? Ms. Hall smoked for 22 years before vaping. She vaped without issue for 5 years and, after initially being diagnosed with bronchitis but not improving, she was found to have had a previously undiagnosed autoimmune disorder. (Yet her doctors blamed vaping.)

Ms. Hall's father passed away due to an unnamed "terminal illness due to smoking." This suggests she may have already been genetically predisposed to be higher risk for smoking-related diseases.

Doctors said her cause of death was post-tracheostomy bleeding, with secondary staphylococcal pneumonia & interstitial lung disease.

Post-tracheostomy bleeding, as the name suggests, is caused by the medical procedure.

Staphylococcal pneumonia is caused by a bacterial infection that is usually spread to the lungs through the blood from other infected sites, most often the skin. It is found twice as frequently in pneumonias in hospitalized patients.

The term "Interstitial Lung Disease" (ILD) covers many different lung conditions, but from the article it appears she had pulmonary fibrosis (PF). A history of smoking--even decades after quitting--is associated with a significant increased risk for the development of IPF.

Given her family history, her history of smoking and the short period of vaping, it's highly unlikely that Ms. Hall's health issues were caused by vaping. It's far more likely they were caused by 22 years of smoking.

But headlines blaming deaths on vaping get the Daily Mail a lot more clicks.

It'll be interesting to see how the UK's influence plays out over the next 20 years. I will be rolling in my grave when Americans are still dying to cigarettes as the #1 cause for health problems and death, and the UK will be over there snickering.

The absolute worse part is that Americans will not be able to connect the dots and see this as a prime example of how much lobbying is f'ing criminal - that would require a double digit cell count in the brain and just a shred of care about something other than money.

I have two of them. I thought I got them from sourcemore or maybe vape sourcing or 3F. I’ll see if I can find the receipt but it was definitely from one of the Chinese stores. And I got them at least two months ago.

Now that I’m thinking more about it maybe it was HealthCabin. Again I’ll try to find out.
Are you sure you aren't talking about the Blaze Solo RDA and not the Blaze Solo RTA? The RTA was just released.

Officially taking that step over to Rdtas/RDAs. Wish me good good luck in my travels lol.

I'm over 21 and live in Illinois. I could go to a local maryjane shop, plunk down my money and get high legally if I wanted. I could go to a liquor store and buy a fifth of vodka and drink the whole bottle legally if I wanted.

What I don't understand is why so many hassles to vape nicotine! Is it anyone's business that I want to vape grape eliquid? These politicians and wayward doctors should mind their own business.

When I started vaping many moons ago, I had one nurse practitioner that had me go get my vaping gear out of the car and show her how the gear worked! She had tried to help me to quit smoking, and I was having a rough go of it. She was totally awesome. There should be more people in power like her.

IT IS BETTER TO VAPE THAN SMOKE 100% OF THE TIME.

Random DIY mixing and More

I was out of nic in the fridge so got one out of the garage freezer. Now I have a problem cause my 60mg nic is gone and now I have 100mg. So now I need someone that's good at math. @hittman @ShowMeTwice or anyone else. OK, here's the problem. I have 100mg nic and I have a 240mg bottle. How much nic do I need to put in the bottle to come out to 6mg when bottle is full (pg/vg)??

Afternoon Shinys! Not too much going on. I rewicked about 8 RBAs last night and have probably another 8 that need rebuilding.

I bought a bunch of the Hellvape Ni80 dual core fused claptons at .36 ohms that I really really like. I ordered one package when I was purchased the Blaze and Tauren RBAs just to try them out.

I don’t really care for anything more than a dual core of whatever. The ramp up time and power needed is annoying to me without any benefit in better flavor or denser vape.

These ramp up quickly and have been lasting quite awhile before needing to replace.

I got them at one of the Chinese stores and at a really good price.

Wow, well done! I was planning to get some rebuilding/rewicking done this weekend but got distracted by other things. Maybe your post will give me the motivation now :thumb:
