    Fabricating a Y-Connector for dual 510 atomizers?

    Hi all, My first post in years. I've recently gotten back into vaping. I am currently using two old school Joyetech Egos (with the 510 atomizer), and rubber-banded the two together, so as to vape both at the same time. Very impressive clouds of vapor, but have three problems: - The heat...

    What I've learned and gained, in my first year of vaping

    Hi All, I haven't posted to this forum in months, but, with one year under my belt, so to speak, I decided to post this. I recall that afternoon well - July 24, 2009. I had recently received a batch of 901 stuff in the mail and was elated. I recall my last analog, a Pall Mall light 100. I...

    Battery Issues

    I have never tried the 510, though it has a good reputation, as far as the manual batteries go. It could be that instead of the true Joye 510, you may have gotten a cheapie variant. Any 510 users here that could advise?

    1 Month Smoke Free

    Just from my experience, I found the first few weeks were the hardest. It gets easier everyday, though. It's pretty smooth sailing now, for me. Congrats to you! One thing that kept me going was this video from a gravely ill Yul Brynner: "Whatever you do; just don't smoke." YouTube - Yul...

    Whats the fastest way to get rid of Primer?

    Here's a quick technique for getting rid of 99%+ of the primer. -Blow through the cart end of the new atomizer pretty hard, until no more primer juice comes out. -Fill atomizer with cheap juice, or pure PG or slightly diluted VG. This time blow through the battery threading side until all...

    Eissenberg study

    What could account for finding very little nicotine being absorbed? It seems to me, any or all of these, could be to blame. (I am CERTAINLY getting nicotine from vaping.) -Neophyte vaping technique - the subjects may have had no clue as to how to properly inhale. They may have pulled hard...

    New here. Ready to Buy. Just a few questions. KR808

    "Do you know if they are automatic batteries? It doesn't say on the web site. (Sorry, I had to take out the link, it wouldn't let me post.)" I have no idea. Your best bet would be to email the site, or check the owner's forum, here: ECigSupply - E-Cigarette Forum They have a 5 dollar off...

    Exercising

    I can't jog anymore, as I've got bad knees from doing it a lot when I was younger (used to do 35 miles a week or so). I walk for exercise, now. I have noticed that since I quit smoking, I can walk quickly up long, steep hills with relative ease, whereas before, I'd be panting a bit. Weight...

    Did everyone quit analogs as soon as they got their e cigs?

    A couple hours after my first DSE 901 PV shipment arrived, I smoked my last analog. I got half way through a Pall Mall light 100 and, in disgust, put it out. I have not smoked since. That was 180 days ago. The first few weeks were tough going, at times. But, with nicotine gum and...

    Throat hit and green gunk

    It could be that the plating done on the screw threads varies greatly in quality from batch to batch. My guess is that, the metal under the gilding is brass. Of course, "brass" is just a catch-all term for a number of copper alloys.

    Alcohol Content.

    Well, Kurt and Wall, your reasoning seems sound. Well, starting tomorrow, I'll give distilled water a shot and see if there are any appreciable differences. BTW, this could, incidentally, be of interest to another thread here in the new members' forum: the one on "green gunk" on atomizer and...

    Throat hit and green gunk

    Hmmm... I don't have enough chemistry under my belt. Can someone else take this? The mix I'm using is like 83% VG, 15% PG and 2% alcohol and I have zero corrosion troubles.

    Throat hit and green gunk

    Come to think of it, I haven't had this problem in a good while. I am not sure why. What sort of juice are you using? Is it a homebrew?

    Alcohol Content.

    This thread has me concerned, though I haven't noticed any such effect from using a small amount of alcohol in my mix. It seems to me that the heat from the atomizer would break down at least SOME of the alcohol. Wouldn't it? Neither would all of it be absorbed, of course.

    Throat hit and green gunk

    Greetings, I've always assumed that "green gunk" was copper sulfate - corrosion. Nasty stuff. It's a good idea, methinks, to periodically clean the atomizer and battery threads. As to your first question, I have no idea. Anyone else?
