    Why Can't I post to RI's Forum Board?

    I'm kinda in the same boat so I'm just sticking to the Newbie threads for now. As for these restrictions, I totally understand why they do it. SPAM. The Internet is full of it and they don't want any spammers here. If you are willing to post 15+, chances are you're not some idiot spammer or a...

    Cart or atty problem?

    Carts seem to lose there flavor pretty quick. (10-15 draws) I use cartomizers for a longer time between refills or I just use the direct drip method if I'm at home. Cart mods like LowThudd mentioned are a great way to get more draws from any cart. Good Luck.

    Finally after wasting money on cheapo ecigs

    Unlike regular cigarette, e-cig takes a lot more getting used too. You have to be the kind of person willing to go through some trial and error before you find what's going to work for you. However, even if you "waste" $200 finding this out. It still beats the pants off of $150 a month smoking...

    I am Almost There!!

    PG is propylene glycol. Safe for human consumption but not yet approved by the FDA. VG is vegetable glycerin. Also safe for human consumption but not yet tested for vaping. Keep in mind however that the steak you get from a butcher might not be FDA "approved". This don't mean it's unsafe. Just...

    1st week and I'm all in!

    Dawolf, I'm with you. I bought a Blu e-cig and hated it. No vapor, bad flavor, but I saw e-cigs potential. I surfed YouTube and went with a 510 starter kit. I love it. My wife has also quit smoking now and has converted to vaping herself. I figure we will save $1200-$1500 per year so $500 is not...

    No more analogs!!!

    After making my first order, I wished I had ordered a Drip Tip. Also, most people don't order pre-filled carts, just order some e-juice samples at different flavors and nicotine levels to help you find the one your going to like. Carts are VERY simple to refill, just check out YouTube for tons...

    Good vapor, little flavor

    I've found dripping to give the best flavor and TH. Also, you might try one of those $15 USB Passthrough @ 5v. Got mine at Electo-Nic-Stix.com and it is awesome. Wish I could give you more advise, but I'm pretty new at vaping myself. Seems the main thing is to not give up until you've tweaked...

    E-Liquid Newbie

    Steve, $1 per ml seems to be on the upper side of juice prices. If you're paying a dollar a ml, it should be really good stuff. As for "Bang for the Buck", try VaporRenu.com. Totally USA made e-juice. Custom made, PG or VG blends are around $6.99 for 30ml. Bests the crap out of $55 a carton! As...

    Direct dripping question.

    Sounds like it's different for everyone? I can live with that. How many draws do you get before you re-drip? Either one, 5v or 3.7.

    Direct dripping question.

    Problem is, I love this 5 volt. Tons of vapor and works well with my cartomizers. I just need a ballpark idea of how often I need to re-drip. Lots of info on how to drip out there, but not much continued use of dripping.

    Direct dripping question.

    Hi everyone, I'm new at dripping and have a quick question. After dripping 3 drops of e-juice on a clean atty, how many vapes should I get on average before I need to drip again? Seems if I drip too much it leaks, if I drip too little it tastes burnt. I'm using a 5 volt USB passthrough. Thanks!

    I feel like an idiot vaping in public

    I'd agree with BradSmith. Vaping in public is a great what to meet people even if you are shy. I'm shy too, but quickly found 80% of the people are smokers that have heard of, but never seen an e-cig. I'm happy to spend a few minutes sharing with someone if I think there's a chance I could save...
