Guys, just a question. how do you change liquid? Like theres still a little bit of liquid left in the tank, but it seems like a waste to just throw it away. Do i just pour a different juice and continue vaping or do i just vape everything out first?

maybe you can drip the remaining liquid directly on the coils and take a couple more drags? lol

We are starting a new thread for newbies as the old one had stale information.

To ease the new members, I'll be starting this thread with an FAQ. If you think anything should be added, feel free to lemme know.

Our location will not be stated explicitly. It will hereby be known as "local" or "here".

Helpful Guidelines for Local Vapers, Newbie to Veteran | E-Cigarette Forum

Where do I get PVs or Juices here?
PVs and nicotine juices are illegal here. Anyone caught supplying them will face a fine of up to $5000.
No one is going to tell any tom, dlck or harry that walks into this forum such information.
Bear in mind that the authorities are watching. We are not being paranoid. They are watching.

So how do I get those information I need?
You can try the old threads, but chances are, those stores are all closed.
Now get yourself verified on ECF.

Let the veterans be sure that you are who you say you are. If any of them trusts you, they will give you the information you need.
Do not PM the veterans constantly, that will only cause you to be added to their ignore list.
And frankly speaking, there are no local stores right now. Zero. Nada. Nil.

Should I get them from across the border?
It is illegal to import any PV or juices. Do so at your own risk.

What about other countries?
It's best for you to check with any foreign suppliers if they are willing to ship here and what precautions do they take to ensure a successful delivery. Bear in mind that there are numerous members who got their package confiscated by the customs. Everything is at your own risk.Do not share any shipping information or precautions taken publicly.

So what the hell is this subforum for?
It's for us to talk about vaping as a local community. Not a place for you to get supplies.
I understand that many of you are new to the vaping scene and have no idea how sensitive the issue is. So I'm giving you an example.

Importing and sale of PVs and Juices. $5000 fine.
Vaping in Public. $500 fine.
Unlicensed importation of nicotine may land you with a $10000 fine under the Poisons Act.
More than 7 local suppliers have shutted down over the past 4 weeks. Some by the authorities, some for precaution.

This is how sensitive everything is around here. I seek your understanding and hope you'll enjoy your stay here.

I'm visiting the country soon, is it safe for me to bring my PV?
Under the current legislation, e-cigarettes are prohibited under Tobacco (Control of Advertisements and Sale) Act. Any "sales, distribution and importation" will result in a fine of up to S$5000 upon conviction and S$10000 for subsequent convictions. Usually the Custom Officers will warn you of it and you may have to throw your PV away.

To avoid having to throw away your funky PVs at the Customs, bring a cheapo set, pray for the best and plan for the worst.

Thanks for the info

btw, why does it seem like my clouds are not as thick as other vapers? Does the watt play an important part in this?

 

[Imperialchugger]

It's depends on your gear. What are you using now?

im using a kanger subox mini

 

[Imperialchugger]

Those big clouds could very likely be from rda. Subtank still gives off decent vapor production being sub ohm.

i tried changing from occ to rba, but i got dry hits, im not sure if its the coil or the juice ...

 

[metzmania]

thanks for in the info. we need to keep this community safe and healthy. after all the hassles of quiting analogs, now come the challenge of our local laws. haizz

its probably the way you wick. with cotton, less is more. try less cotton and make sure ur wicking is not tight nor loose.
practice makes perfect!

 

[Xrimo]

does the material of the coil causes the dry hits? because i tried to reduce the amount of cotton but theres little change

Im assuming ur using kanthal as its the most common. try lowering down ur wattages and check resistance. if u have flutuating readings try resitting the coils and screw them down properly.

I was wondering if using the device infront of our electronic stuff like monitors, laptops are ok for the electronics? Cos vapor engulfs my monitor whenever I puff away while using the computer... and vapor is somewhat water right? sounds stupid I know.. but I don't wanna damage my stuff
