    Good mech mod + atomizer for beginners?

    Generally, I'd say hold off on the mechs and RDA's, particularly anything rebuildable until you've more experience. This is what most folks may tell you. However, mech mods are fairly simple devices, but because of this, they also have no protections built in except for perhaps vent holes and/or...

    eBay strangers to friends

    Welcome to ECF. In general, I agree with you, however I have come across some Ebay'ers who hadn't a clue what they were selling. But most do communicate, which is good.I buy most of my electronics and gadgets online as well.

    I agree with the above poster. If the old batteries are otherwise working fine, use em, till ya can't use em no more.

    After 16 Months, Tried a Real Cigarette

    It is something I've been wanting to do for some time now. To experience for myself what other folks say about trying a cigarette after vaping for so long (disgusting, nasty, etc.). I also needed to do it, to give myself some closure as it were and remind myself of what I used to do. It turned...

    How can I lose the urge for a real cigarette?

    Don't beat yourself up or think something is wrong with you because you either have cravings or are a dual user. Cravings are normal, after you have been vaping for a good long time, the cravings will lessen in intensity. And actually taking a puff or two of a real cigarette after not smoking...

    Confused & concerned

    I believe eGo type batteries are regulated and have safety features built in. As long as your battery can handle your resistance load, you should be fine. As far as blowing up hands and burning down houses, you probably have a greater chance of getting struck by lightning on a sunny day.

    DIY ejuice/eliquid

    So far I like most of the flavors from TFA and Flavor West. Capella is also good. The first two are nearly in the same price range with Capella coming in third in price. Also like some of Totally Wicked's Red and Gold label concentrates (particularly lemon, sex on the beach, and cocoa). I...

    Tank Fetish?

    Good to hear about someone with tanks. Seems like all I hear about these days are RDAs and dripping. Perhaps the latter is in vogue.

    Nic dropping anyone?

    15 months in and I'm still on 18 mg, drip or tank doesn't matter. But I'm also still at close to the same resistance, now around 1.6 ohms.

    how often should you take a puff of an ecig?

    You should vape in your sleep too. Could not resist. Hehe.

    Hello from australia

    Welcome to ECF. I must try this "vamping" of which you speak, Hehe. But seriously, I wish to welcome a fellow vaper from down under. Australia seems to be rather harsh on e-cigs, but I have come across several vendors/websites based in Australia. If you need links, just PM or let me know.

    Are IMR batteries really necessary with a regulated mod?

    Never had any issues with my Orbtronic (Panasonic) protected batteries in the regulated mods I've tried. Also tried a protected battery in the Hana DNA 30 clone. No issues. If its a quality battery, the most I'd think would happen is you'd trip the PCB in the battery when cranking up the power...

    Best mechanic mod under $50

    You won't find too many "authentics" in the sub $50 dollar range. The Nemesis (multiple variants) is probably one of the best clones made. Have 2 of them. Copper Nemesis perhaps.
