    Need battery suggestion for 510 atomizers

    I'm an old school vaper for the most part. No matter what other devices I've tried over the years, I've always kept a classic Joye 510 in the mix. I just like the simplicity and reliability of it. I also really like it paired with a mini Ego battery so it's pocketable. But because mini Ego...

    atomizer mod idea

    Any time my atomizer starts tasting burnt or I'm just not getting much vapor, I inevitably find that the wick has fused itself to the coil. I'm wondering if that could be prevented from happening by placing a piece of ss mesh inside, in between the coil and the wick—allowing liquid to flow...

    Leaky eRoll? Your tank may be the culprit

    I put some new tanks on my eRolls last week and then started having nonstop leaks. I've been losing my mind trying to figure out the problem, but tonight, I think I've got it. First, I'll list the trouble I was having so people with leaks can see if their symptoms are the same: - hard draw -...

    Patience is a virtue... that I lack

    Have you ever used up your eRoll and reached over to swap it with the one in the charger only to realize you didn't properly seat the one in the charger so it wasn't actually charging? And then you had two dead eRolls and had to wait for one to charge? :facepalm: Hate when that happens.

    Vision Nano clearomizer - refilling question

    Is there some trick to refilling these things to prevent liquid from seeping out the bottom hole? I'm not getting any liquid in the little metal air flow tube and I'm not delaying in putting the mouth piece back on after filling. But while I'm refilling, if I don't plug that bottom hole with my...

    Two years and counting!

    I'm a bit late in posting this, but two days ago was my two-year anniversary of quitting smoking :) Although I quit smoking all at once by using an ecig, it wasn't an easy process for me. I'd documented some of what I went through on my blog and I was just rereading it... I'm so glad that's all...

    Travel and Vaping Vape-friendly hotel: The Clarendon in Phoenix

    Happened across this article today, so I thought I'd share. This hotel is actually going to start selling ecigs so people who might otherwise sneak a smoke in their room (or light up a cigarette by the pool or at the bar) can vape instead: The Clarendon Hotel in Phoenix Will Sell E-Cigarettes...

    Nic absorption in VG vs PG?

    I've mainly used PG liquid since I started vaping. For about a year now, I've been mixing an 11mg with a 0mg to get around 8mg. That works well for me and I'm used to it, but I never feel a hit of nicotine. I know I get it because I feel more alert/awake/clear/better/satisfied, but there's no...

    Looking for Blucig style blank cartos

    I have been on a quest for cartomizers for a while and I finally found one I like: Blucigs. The only problem is that they don't sell blanks and the prefilled flavors are all VG based. I really don't like the VG liquid, so I'd like to find some blanks of these same kind of cartos. I heard...

    One year!!!

    I did it. I really did it! With no plan and no set quit date, I spontaneously decided to see how long I could go without smoking if I gave it an honest try with my e-cig. And it's now been a whole year. Not a single cigarette since then, not even a puff. Do I miss it? Yes and no. I don't...

    Good ol' DSE901

    Hubby is off to bed, so I'm sitting here alone, surfing the web, watching TV and vaping back and forth between my eGo with carto and a regular 510 with regular atty. Then I decided to organize my tackle box o' gear. Heh. I didn't get very far with that. One of my old 901 batteries still had a...

    510 carto + eGo cone + 901 flat tip ??

    I had no idea how to title this thread... I've got an eGo, a 510 cartomizer and a 901 flat tip mouth piece. I want these things to all work together, but I think I'm going to have to make some modifications for that to happen. Here's the situation: eGo cone + 510 carto The eGo cone fits a...

    Just tried Ariva

    I enjoy the occasional snus, but since it's not exactly discrete in my mouth, I'd been wanting to try some dissolvables. Someone on here mentioned Lil Brown Smoke Shack as a good vendor so that's where I ordered (I hadn't been able to find the products locally). They arrived today and I just...

    eGo charger and/or battery problems

    I got my eGo on Thursday and the first full charge for each battery gave me a glorious 10 hours of vaping each. Second time through one battery didn't charge at all — the indicator light on the charger never turned green, but I'd read these take about 3 hours to charge fully, so after like 4...

    Before I use my Ego...

    Should I charge up the batteries fully or can I just start vaping if they have a charge? I don't have it yet, but it's on order and I'm expecting it today or tomorrow :)

    Sanjay Gupta answers e-cig question

    I didn't see this on here anywhere, so hopefully I'm not duplicating a post. My boss smokes e-cigarettes in the office. Is this safe? While he doesn't totally bash the e-cig, he does rehash the FDA's misinformation. I posted a comment, but it's still awaiting moderation.

    Will I ever find cigarettes unappealing?

    It's been over seven months since I quit analogs and I still love the smell of smoke. Aren't I suppose to be hating it by now? Or do former smokers always love it? I'm also amazed at how completely natural it still feels to hold a cigarette between my fingers or in my lips. I still have my...

    wide band vs regular 510 atties

    What's the difference between a regular 510 atomizer and the ones that have a wide band on them? The ones with the wide band seem to be more expensive, but after so many bad experiences with the regular ones in recent weeks, I'm wondering if I should just try the other type. Are they made by a...
