    Harvard medical school adviser lies about health risks/benefits of e-cigarettes

    The doctor deserves to experience a smoking-related disease for at least a month, (the horror of lung cancer?) Then he would know what he is inflicting on his readers and patients. Or maybe he would prefer a month of emphysema. That's not very nice either. He deserves to know what his words...

    Starting to feel more "outcasted" vaping than smoking

    Well, that's interesting. And good luck with your vaping. Really that's great if you have quit smoking! On this forum we don't discuss the other thing.

    Are all 3.7 volt devices the same?

    The device makes a big difference. I proved this to myself only yesterday. I was testing my Indulgence PV with a freshly charged 18650 3.7V battery. Performance was lackluster. I removed the battery, put it in my Silver Bullet and attached the same carto. The difference was incredible. Much...

    Delivery in China

    You are right. Nobody in China would save money by switching to e-cigs. Cigs are very cheap here. But I'm happy to be saving my health by vaping now. Even my closest friends can not understand the difference between vaping and smoking, even if I do my best to explain it. Totally weird.

    Delivery in China

    I live in Xi'an. I would love to have a vaping buddy. Vaping is almost unknown here, except for the crap they sell at the pharmacies. I've known a few smokers who try them and then go back to smoking.

    Help! I cannot post to the New Members Forum

    It happened to me once, but I got over it, with counselling and a high dose of FDA approved anti-depressants.

    NYT: A Tool to Quit Smoking Has Some Unlikely Critics

    The anti-smoking movement and tobacco control etc are going to have to admit to the fact that their policies don't work, and that they have been lying. The NY Times article is likely to spread and have a huge impact. Abstinence only is a nonsensical, cruel, but highly profitable approach...

    How do you quit?

    Nearly all of the anti-smoking groups hate e-cigs. The biggest reason is that e-cigs are so successful as an alternative to smoking. If everyone switched to vaping, the anti-smoking groups would all be unemployed. Also, if you switch to vaping, you literally have quit smoking. E-cigs produce...

    Self Conscious ??? ... Problem Solved !

    Stealth vaping works much better if you are using 100% PG juice.

    E-Cigarettes Deliver Nicotine - JF Etter

    I consume caffiene and I enjoy it in my coffee. I consume nicotine, and I enjoy it in my e-cig vapor. Both are stimulants. And to my knowledge, both have a similar effect. Not identical, but similar. If you think that's callous, then we can agree to disagree.

    E-Cigarettes Deliver Nicotine - JF Etter

    Nopatch ,I have read all of what you are trying to say, but it's difficult to know what point you are trying to make. This is a forum for mostly former smokers who use e-cigs as a means of getting nicotine in a much safer way than inhaling cigarette smoke.

    Important !!!!!! V3 16340 set

    I got my Indulgence in the mail today. If anyone is considering the 6V, please be aware of two things. 1. The charger can only charge one battery at a time. It is not long enough to hold two 3V batteries. I'm lucky I ordered an extra charger. 2. Choosing the 6V option limits your choice...

    Family members that successfully quit smoking years ago are now vaping..

    And really, Player30, maybe my post was too much, and off the point you made. No offense intended.

    Family members that successfully quit smoking years ago are now vaping..

    Even if a former smoker or non-smoker started vaping 36mg, is it anyone else's business? Nicotine is perfectly legal and has beneficial aspects. I agree with you completely, but let's not allow the anti-smoker movement's fear-mongering of nicotine to infiltrate vaping.

    NY Times article on e-cigs maybe the best mass media article to date

    Actually, I'm sure they do understand it. Unfortunately the truth is not what they want to hear. The majority of the anti-smoking movement is built on a foundation of misinformation and lies about safer alternatives, and is driven by a greed for profit which is generated by their on-going...

    I had a cigarette today

    I smoked like a pig for 30 years, but I have no desire to smoke now. I have my PV and my snus. That's all I need.

    What's On Your Vaping Wish List For Christmas This Year?

    I want a servant. Someone who will fill my cartos, mix perfect juice for me, and keep my batteries fully charged. Let's face it, we could all use a vaping servant. Or maybe a vaping slave would be more cost effective.

    Obama's position on e-cigs ?

    Thanks for that. And I bet it didn't take long to do the math. This kind of common sense logic is noticeably absent within the anti-smoking movement. Although, we all know they are not anti-smoking at all. They are pro-profit.

    Who we going to trust?

    That's a really good point. Perhaps we should make a list of juice manufacturers who actually HAVE killed their customers.

    Who we going to trust?

    I have been vaping only non-American juices for one year. I'm still alive. To the best of my knowledge, the entire industry is unregulated and there are no quality control standards in place anywhere, except those that individual manufacturers set for themselves. So, unless you make the juice...
