    Massive smokeless tobacco tax increase

    Registered, voted and commented: The taxes on cigarettes were originally applied as a "sin" tax, were they not? With the percentage of tax on other tobacco products going lower according to the danger they posed to public health? Then how the heck do you justify taxing smokeless tobacco...

    New Here

    Ditto to what the above posters said about trying an e-liquid that uses vegetable glycerin as a base. But first you have to get a new e-cig! : ( Continue to read here on the forum and get a dse901 or a 510 both of which can be found for under $30 and get some blank cartridges with them and some...

    Reviving Burnt Taste Buds

    After years of smoking your taste buds are a bit fried. They will recover as you smoke less and less. What flavor of juice are you vaping? To be honest, nothing you vape is going to taste exactly like a cigarette does and many of us have found that we prefer non tobacco flavors of liquid just...

    I don't hate analogs yet - will I ever?

    Welcome to the forum Rwood9! Many of us here still smoke as well as vape. I've been vaping for a long time and I still have several cigs a day. But you know what? I still feel good about replacing over 2/3's of my cigs with vaping. Every cig I don't smoke is better for me, right? This is a very...

    can you answer this?

    Welcome to the forum couch magnet, glad you found us! Can't answer your V2 red question but can vouch for American made juice. There are MANY great "chefs" to choose from. My favorites are eJuiceMonkeys.com, Evolutionary Vaping Supplies, DIY Flavor Shack by E-Cig Smoke Store, and everybody loves...

    Atty's

    When their performance drops off is when I do it. That would be less vapor, burned taste or if you want to change to a completely different flavor you might want to clean it first. I use this method: 1. Blow out your atty until no more juice comes out. 2. Over the sink, put some baking soda...

    Hello Vapers, How's the Weather Treating You?

    Hi folks! Yes, isn't this rain a blessed relief? Ahhhhhh, love a good thunderstorm and any time it's raining in August that's a good thing! Maybe I'll get something out of my garden yet. So, ejuicemonkeys rocks, right? I'm vaping Citrus Splash right now (taking a break from Pearfection) and I...

    2nd day with Riva 510 getting very frustrated

    I second demon72's suggestion about trying to "lift" up the connection ends of both the battery and the atomizer. Yes, you can do this on an atomizer too. It's all about making sure they are making a good connection to each other.

    Wow. Lots of info on this forum!

    What is nice about vaping is that you don't HAVE to stop if you don't want to. I pretty much hit mine whenever I want to all day long. Many people report getting a headache or feeling quesy if they have taken in too much nicotine, so if you just pay attention to your body it will let you know if...

    Former 510 Dripper - Drips 901 on VV - First Impressions

    I've always been a huge fan of the 901. It fell out of favor for a while but it's nice to see some people coming back to it after the gleam of "new stuff" wears off.

    Any Vapours in India?? Need Help ..Newbie here...

    Unfortunately the situation is VERY different and difficult in India. Ordering direct from China is not an option as India customs will not allow anything in from that country. This is not to say you can't find products in India that were "Made in China" but when you do you can bet they came in...

    Vaping 15 days...smoke free for SIX!!

    MrTiedye--That. is. just. perfect! Love that story!! Ppoi420-- You know what? There is no rule that says you have to quit smoking while using an e-cig. In fact many of us, myself included, still smoke a few cigs a day. But look, every cigarette you replace with vaping is one less cigarette you...

I can't tell you how many people over the last couple years I have URGED to join us here because I know it can make the difference between a good or bad vaping experience. But I bet only one person in twenty actually does what you have done...

    In Defense of the DSE 901

    Hi CC, in my experience with 510 and 901 atomizers I think they can both be leaky if overfilled. I don't think the 901 is more prone to leaking than any other type, in other words. And believe me, after 2 1/2 years of vaping, I still tend to overfill from time to time. It's a user problem more...
