    Why are my teeth killing me now

    There is no sugar in eliquid. If you put sugar in eliquid you will wind up with a coil that is gunked up with caramel.

    Why are my teeth killing me now

    Just a thought: How hard are you sucking on your ecig? Vaping is not like smoking, vapor is created by the eliquid being heated on the hot coil, not by feeding oxygen into the flame as a cigarette. By sucking hard on your ecig, you're causing blood to be drawn out from your gums. Again, just...

    breaking news,child dead after ingesting nicotine.

    If I were the parents, I would insist on an autopsy to determine the real cause of death. Other than that, it's all conjecture.

    Worried vaping won't help me

    Nicotine is not absorbed through the lungs when you vape, it's absorbed through the nasal membranes. Try exhaling through your nose without inhaling to your lungs. There's a slew of threads dealing with inhalation techniques that may help you. I've read quite a few postings from asthmatics who...

    Very new to vaping

    This was my experience as well. I smoked for more than 45 years and promised myself I would smoke at least one cigarette a day when I started vaping. After 1 1/2 weeks, I forgot to smoke my allotted cigarette and lit one up. I almost vomited and put it out after only 3 puffs. That was 3 years...

    Prejudice against vaping

    I'm pretty sure the same person would not react the same way if you came to your meeting with the flu or a cold. The chance of such a case would definitely affect other people around you in a more immediate way of others getting whatever it is you're bringing to the meeting. But, if you did...

    Am I vaping too much?

    How much is too much? Well, that depends on how you feel. Trust me, you'll know when you've had too much vaping, and that goes for pretty much everything in life. Relax and enjoy!

    new member intro from Texas

    Welcome to ECF and congratulations on your decision to quit smoking. I've been vaping for a few years now and my advice to someone new is to get an eGo Twist or Vision Spinner type battery they're in the $30 or less range. As for the tank, I recommend Kanger Evods, they're easy to fill and...

    Scary...PG Allergy Attack Tonight

    As a rule, when the bottle is labeled 80/20 the first number is always the pg content. I have seen this consistently with all the vendors I've dealt with. So if your bottle is labeled 80/20 then what you have is 80pg/20vg.

    Does vaping make you more vulnerable to respiratory illness?

    My one and only reply is "I haven't had a cold since I started vaping 3 1/2 years ago." Check out the CASAA website and you'll find a slew of scientific studies there. BTW, join CASAA, it's free.

    Going to the Doctor

    Vaping is not smoking. When a doctor asks me if I smoke, I answer "I quit smoking 3 1/2 years ago." If they asked me how I did it, I then would say "With electronic cigarettes" but so far the doctors are not interested on how I did it. How would anyone consider vaping the same as smoking...

    Is vapors tongue a real thing?

    Don't know if it's real or not, but my taste buds have a mind of their own. Vaper's tongue became a thing of the past for me when I started vaping at last 2 different flavors every day. It keeps my taste buds busy enjoying the difference between the flavors. I have 2 tanks that I constantly...

    Relieving big cravings.

    I've been vaping for 2 1/2 years now and have gone down to 6mg to 0mg but I didn't start decreasing the nicotine until 6 months after I started. At the beginning I started with 18mg. Even now I buy a bottle of 12mg once in a while. Why are you worried about staying at low nicotine strength...

    What does a harsh throat hit mean?

    Cotton wool is the same as cotton balls or just 100% cotton here in the States. OP, you may have used the silica wick coil for too long. I use Kanger Aerotanks and I go through one coil a week, I can use it longer but the taste is not the same. I figure the silica coils are cheap enough. I...
