    Calling all Virginia Vapors!

    Well met JM! Quite a few of us have been doing the "Mickey Mouse Roll Call" thing over in the US E Smokers Social group within this thread: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/us-e-smokers/6748-md-dc-va-vapers-7.html#post472893 I live in Richmond and work primarily in the NOVA/ DC metro...

    the best start

    I just got my 601 yesterday! I had originally looked at pipes before I settled on a Super Mini back when I first started vaping. They were far too expensive only 8 months ago. However, when a supplier I had previously used for cheap cartridges etc. started slashing prices on pipes, I just had...

    Has anyone else been asked, Have you got a light?

    Standing in front of the theater a few weeks ago Him: "Hey, Man. Can I get one of those off you?" Me: "Well, I do have a spare but it'll be worthless tomorrow without the charger. Not to mention refills." Him: "Hunh?" Me: "But I suppose I could let it go for say... $40 seeing as how it is...

    MD, DC, VA Vapers?

    So cool to see so many of us Vaping in Virginia! The Richmond to DC commute is so much better with a USB passthrough, and dropping my e-cig on the floor out of reach is no longer an issue. Saves my batteries for on the job. A few people who see me vaping in public ask if "...that's one of them...

    Interesting comment by Phillip Morris USA

    Just as a tag on - why do people refer to cigarettes and analog? Don't wish to be pedantic, but both forms e-cig and tobacco cigs are strictly analog in the true meaning of the word. ----Nicotine "True meaning" depends on context. If nicotine delivery is seen as a signal transmission, then...

    What's your favorite cartridge filler?

    So far the coffee filters are working very well. Tried a tea bag but it just collapsed into a blob, maybe should use a whole bag. Started out rolling a narrow strip of coffee filter around a leather-working needle. Used too much filter. When I hit it with the juice it swelled up too tight to...

    Looking for RN4081 Passthrough

    USB Vaping in the car is the best thing to happen to my 2 hour daily commute since satellite radio. And since it's on a "leash" I don't have to worry about it falling on the floor and out of reach when I set it down.

    Just bought this supermini can anyone identify the type?

    It certainly looks like an RN4081. Not familiar enough with the other similar models to know for sure though. The USB passthrough is a godsend for home use. Tons of vapor, I think it runs a little hotter than the batteries, so be mindful. I now refer to on battery vaping as "going wireless"...

    Analog smokers forums-OMG how sad

    There are a few in every crowd. However, it is always the loudmouths that get the most attention. I always carry new cartridges with me for curious smokers who want to give it a try. The first thing out of their mouths is usually, "Wow! Where can I get one of these?!" Granted, I work in a...

    The pull is very hard on my RN4081 any ideas?

    If it draws hard no matter what battery you try it on, then you'll know for sure it is the atomizer. Valgar is right, alignment of the holes is critical, but also check to see if the atomizer holes are clogged. Do a search in the forums for cleaning techniques, there are entire threads devoted...

    Easier Cartridge Refills for RN4081's

    I'm currently out on the road, and have to use the materials I have on hand. It actually takes far longer to describe the process than it does to do it. And the idea of having a sharp needle drenched in Extra Strength nic scares the bejeezus out of me. Risky enough getting on your skin much...

    Easier Cartridge Refills for RN4081's

    For those of us who do not use syringes, refilling can be often be a hit or miss affair. I ordered liquid from Puresmoker for the first time just before the move. When I got the bottle, it's nozzle was shorter and stouter than I was accustomed to so my carts were harder to fill. I then hit...

    You actually get a throat hit from the RN4081 (Smoking Everywhere Gold)

    Most definitely Max. I ordered a pass-thru when I got my latest spare battery. Ye Gods! It's a mighty fine fog. I now refer to on-battery vaping as "going wireless".:D I'm going to get a USB phone charging adapter for the car so I can vape direct while sitting in traffic.

    What time for site to open??

    BeRight: Nashville is in Central Time Zone. I've got some friends and co-workers who are chomping at the bit to get their own after test driving my vaporizer. Their first intro was a standard factory cart at regular strength and the reaction was so-so, but after sampling some French Pipe from...

    Weight Gain?

    First off, Wally! Wow, Congratulations! I am celebrating your victory as I one day hope to celebrate my own. I am moved (and that's no mean feat at my current size.) I've been battling a weight problem all my life, really from childhood on. The only time I ever made it down to my "ideal"...

    Shipping question / EMS, then what?

    French Pipe is what I chose to go with when I saw he was out of Camel. Man, I'm almost glad he was out, otherwise I wouldn't have gotten to experience this truly delightful flavor. Not sure how it will fare on the palette of a Menthol Man, but it was surely satisfying to this Turkish Fiend...
