    Do direct lung inhales mean more or less nicotine absorption??

    This is a good question, glad someone asked it. When I smoked, I never did lung hits nor when I started vaping. But now I find myself doing more and more long slow lung hits, exhaling a bit from the nose for flavor. I do this at standard power levels (8-10 watts) and low to standard resistance...

    Formaldehyde Fraud

    Its good folks are setting the record straight. Me worried? Nah. But I do believe there is formaldehyde in cigarette smoke though. Along with a very long list of of other "good" stuff.

    Dizziness After Vaping

    Welcome. I must learn what a "shisha" is (time for Google), must be similar in origin to the hookah. Sounds like a non-smoker getting a buzz from nicotine but you say it is zero nic. Perhaps there is nicotine, maybe a small amount, in there, despite what the packaging says. However, if this were...

    Oh the many considerations about what tank to buy

    Of the four channel bottom coil/kayfun bell/chimney types I have tried, I liked the Aqua the best. Only downside was tiny juice capacity and for some, not being able to see your juice level. It was also a 21 mm device from what I recall. Don't know about the new versions though.

    No vapor from new Kanger Protank 3 Mini!!!

    Hello and congrats on quitting smoking. I don't know much about the new protank minis. Power can affect vapor production (dialing up the power on a regulated mod/spinner/VV/VW or else lowering the resistance). Other things affect vapor product type of coil, surface area of wire, airflow, PG/VG...

    What to set charger at.

    Edit: I had the trustfire charger as well. Always kept it set at 4.2v if I recall correctly.

    What to set charger at.

    A fully charged 18650 will read 4.2 volts, so I'm guessing the 4.2v setting. But would need to know the charger type as previously mention by another poster.

    Mainly VG with strong menthol to overcome VT/burned tongue

    My minty menthol is good and strong, adjust the VG up. A mix of menthol, mint, koolada, and wintergreen sounds nice as well.

    Oh the many considerations about what tank to buy

    I love a tight draw myself. If your into genesis style, I would recommend the Kraken with a narrow drip tip (Kayfunesque). Also like the AGI, its versatile and has a single tiny airflow. Also liked the Aqua and the Squape when I had them.Both have ample decks, particularly the Squape.

    The Diketone Debate: Which Position Do you Take?

    I put in my vote, as close to my thinking as possible. Saw this thread mentioned on the Bull City website. Kudos to them for doing it BTW. Could cost them business. I don't have time to read like I want to, I'm not on forums like I used to be, but seems the voters have spoken, However as the OP...

    You ever partake in auctions?

    I agree. If anyone really wants the item in question, real bidding won't start till its close to the end, last hour(s), last minute(s). But I have seen some brand new 7 day or 3 day auctions at some crazy low price like 99 cents, but there will be a single bid, that will remain there for days...

    portable power pack.

    I did a write up on my blog somewhere on external USB portable powerbanks. I love em. I use em to vape or to charge any of my other gadgets. If you vape normal resistance with a stick-style 5v manual 510 passthrough, you won't trip the protections circuits. Anything over around 2.4 amps being...

    Polycarbonate tank buster test?

    Very interesting experiment. However I cannot make out much of anything where the A is on the photo. Probably my old eyes. I can see drops of liquid on the disk, but not much else. I still love my tank crackers, however, I do use them in moderation, but aside from a chemical reaction between the...

    You ever partake in auctions?

    Welcome to ECF. Do you mean online auctions such as eBay? If so, generally I don't win what I bid on. When I see very low prices and only a short time left or auctions that are brand new with only a single bid, its because their is a reserve bid, or someone perhaps connected with the seller has...
