    This year's MI Vaper's BBQ

    Well I'm not in Jackson but have arranged to meet my friends (they live near Michigan Center) from around there afterwards for dinner and movie...I'm sure they could come early to bring juice. PM me if that sounds like a possibility.

    Are you obsessed with your e cig, juices and vaping?

    Obsessed...naahhh. I only check in here twice a day, well maybe three times. Or four or five. I only have about two dozen as-yet-untried juice sellers saved in my "NICOTINE" folder. I only tell every single person I know about vaping and let the smoking ones try as many flavors as possible. I...

    Nicotine Myth Busted - Nicotine does not cause adiction IMO

    That was an impassioned OP, but with not a single cite or reference, I don't find it persuasive at all. (Except the part about BT manipulating nic levels in cigarettes to make them more addictive, which is certainly true.) John Phoenix, you make a whole lot of claims and definitive statements in...

    Please, find an alternative to LiquidWeb

    I do that about once every week or two, doesn't everybody? ;) Don't want to come across like a total grinch: I love the forum and appreciate the work mods and owners put into it! Slow loading is a smallish price to pay, I guess.

    OMG I Vape a lot

    I'm going through 4-6? ml per day...top off with a few drops here and there at least a half-dozen times daily. I enjoy the ritual of "topping off." By once every two weeks I assume you mean the bottle, not the carto/tank?

    What's the best e cig under $200?

    What's the collective ECF opinion on LavaTube? I also have a KGO (two, actually) and thus far am delighted with it, but like WayneH86 am wondering what my next upgrade PV will be. Buy Lava Tube | Get Lava Tubes | Find LavaTubes Carry Case and Accessories

    New to vaping. Need some advice please.

    Welcome to ECF. So far, apart from disposable e-cigs I started with the only real PV I've tried is the KGO and I'm totally happy with it - so much so that I've bought two kits. I've used BOGE cartos and Resurrectors (hold more juice). Whatever you decide on, stock up on extra cartos (or...

    go back to smoking

    Hypothetically - and at only seven weeks into vaping 24 mg - I certainly would go back to smoking because I'm still addicted to nicotine.

    Help! Who had a hard time first quiting

    I didn't start vaping in order to quit smoking either...just for "harm reduction" to cut down, have less stinky vehicles, whatever. So it's been seven weeks since I got my first real PV and I still have the occasional cigarette. They taste nasty, for sure. But the addict part of my brain wants...

    DC2, that's hysterical. :D

    "I comb my eyelashes and eyebrows to capture the mites. And then I throw them in our spaghetti sauce so everyone can get some extra protein..." OMFG that was the funniest thing I have read all day, "like" x 10 on that whole post.

    Pet hair sticking out of label on juice bottle..

    I should add - I don't mean to sound completely cavalier about pet hair stuck to a brand-new bottle. I certainly think someone who is bothered by that has every right to decide not to use that vendor again, or to complain. And I respect the OP's decision not to mention the vendor (unless I...

    Pet hair sticking out of label on juice bottle..

    People who are allergic to animal hair are allergic not to the fur but to the dander. Dander is similar to dandruff in people - it's the little flakes of skin that we all shed throughout our lives. And if someone were to have a "catastrophic" reaction to a single dog or cat hair...well that...

    Updated "are you in my area," thread

    Bummer. Hopefully you got some tasty juices so when you get the replacement you'll be good to go!

    New, but determined

    Welcome! Don't be hard on yourself for having the occasional smoke, be proud of yourself for starting a program of major harm reduction and pat yourself on the back for every cigarette you DON'T smoke! You don't say what you're using to vape, but I started out with disposable e-cigs and I...

    I just killed a KGO battery and my charger in one shot. Help.

    Thanks Vegas. :) Well my replacement charger is on its way and I was able to get the mangled remains out of the battery with needle-nosed pliers, so I'm all set! I think I'll get a replacement charger for "just in case" though.

    Pet hair sticking out of label on juice bottle..

    Honestly, one hair on the outside of a bottle wouldn't faze me one bit...probably wouldn't bother me much if it was inside the bottle either, to be honest. Although I'd send a friendly heads-up email to the vendor in that case. Then again I have three dogs, plus occasional foster dogs, living...

    Whoa! Too much Throat hit! Help!!!

    Hi rajani, I was a hard-core RYO non-filter smoker for many years and 36 mg seems insanely high to me! What have you been smoking up until now? I've been happy with 24 mg, tried some 30 mg juices and the TH is harsh and also seems to mute some of the flavor. On my next order I'm getting some...
