    Travel and Vaping E-smoking on an airplane?

    OK, so I went on my trip, and didn't have any problems. I flew Delta out of Tucson. In my carry on, I had packed my Bartleby (box mod), and Vypr from Vaprlife. I also had several atomizers/cartomizers, and a couple of bottles of juice. Since you have to declare liquids at the checkpoint, I...

    Travel and Vaping E-smoking on an airplane?

    So I have spent a LONG time reading this entire thread because in a couple of weeks I am taking my first plane ride since I started vaping. I understand that no one has really talked about troubles with bringing their devices through airport security. Everyone talks about their penstyle, their...

    Need a GOOD menthol flavor recommendation

    To break him in easily, I thought cartos would be good. They are so easy to use and you don't have to mess with them much throughout the day. I'm pretty exclusively a dripper, but I tend to use cartos sometimes when I'm out and about, so I don't have to worry about having to mess with dripping...

    Need a GOOD menthol flavor recommendation

    This is all great info guys, thanks. Not being a menthol person myself, it is pretty clear to see that menthol has its own subrealm within the realm of e-cigs. I can talk pretty intelligently about the sweeter flavors (my pref), but not menthol flavors at all. I'm glad once again to have a...

    Need a GOOD menthol flavor recommendation

    I am sending my Dad my old Joye 510 and some blank cartomizers. He seems a little reluctant to replace his 4+ decade cig habit, so I want to make sure he has a good experience. Personally, I do not like menthol flavors, so I haven't tried many. Dad seems to be concerned that it will be hard...

    Considering a 12 Volt Mod.

    Isn't THIS really what we are all waiting for? The "big bang" of throat hits!!

    Maybe... e-gel instead of e-liquid?

    All great ideas going here so far. It would be pretty cool if gelatin would work. I bet it would be even cheaper! I can imagine mixing jello, water, PG/VG, Everclear, and nic in appropriate amounts that would last for a month! I'm guessing spoilage might be a concern. I also understand the...

    Maybe... e-gel instead of e-liquid?

    OK, I don't know if anyone has thought along these lines or not, but please feel free to shoot holes, create and sell to me, whatever. E-juice has its drawbacks. It leaks, it is difficult to contain in carts, it must be wicked. What if it were more like a gel, or paste? Obviously, atomizers...

    My DRYING/cleaning method you WANT to read!

    I'm surprised no one has mentioned this yet. Originally being from (very humid) Alabama, my grandmother always taught me to put some rice into the salt shaker with the salt. It keeps the salt from getting all clumpy, especially in the tiny holes of the cap where it is supposed to come out...

    Vypr 510 from Vaprlife

    Ah, good to know Stu. I did wonder about it, but I never actually have been curious enough to mess with it. I kinda thought that what you said might be the case. After I got mine back from Vaprlife (for the button repair), I noticed a very slight tool mark next to the screw that wasn't there...

    Vypr 510 from Vaprlife

    I've been vaping on my Vypr 510 for close to two months now, and I'm still loving every minute of it! I did get the LR atties, and WOW! 3 out of 5 have died, but two are still going strong. The vape is certainly much better than the standard atties, and now that prices are equivalent and supply...

    Dripping stinks!

    I drip exclusively and can't stand using carts. Yeah, there's more to mess with, and that certainly seems to be a deal-breaker for some folks. If I have a freshly blown-out atty, I put 5 drops in (I use 510 atties, btw). After about 3 drags I'll add 3 more drops. I get a few hits then add 3...

    Possible material for atomizer sheath?

    I would love to be able to see inside my atomizer, but the stainless steel, black or other color sort of makes that hard. Is there any reason why the housing (sheath, I guess) of the atomizer couldn't be made of glass? Obviously it would need to be thicker than a metal one, but that wouldn't...

    LRs and a 510 (inline battery)PT

    I'm the original poster on this thread and I have been using the LR atties on my cheapo 510 PT with inline 10440 for a month and a half now. I use it heavily for 3-5 hours per day and have noticed no problems whatsoever. The only thing I am getting is consistent power, and a nice cloudy...

    Time for an upgrade

    I used a Joye 510 for awhile, and then on my birthday I decided to splurge a little and get myself a Vypr from vaprlife. I was wanting to try 5 volts, but I don't like the idea of stacking batteries. The Vypr 510 is a 3.7 volt device using a 14500 AA size 900 mah battery. This is the perfect...

    Slipped after almost 4 months

    I literally quit analogs after two days of vaping, but tried 3 analogs again at various times during my first couple of months. I didn't see this as a "slip", but more as an "experiment". What I found was that each time, analogs tasted worse to me. I actually forced myself through the third...

    Burning throat

    I think this part of what you said is key. It is obviously not nicotine that is causing this, I think the question is, what did you use to make your own juice? A small number of people discover that they have an allergy to PG. In this case, many switch to VG and find their problems go away. If...

    Tucson & Southern AZ Vapers Congregate Here!

    If you like Safehouse, you'll love Crave next to Scoot Over between Columbus & Swan on Broadway. Shannon is way cool and doesn't mind vaping at all! The place is a little small for analogs, so I doubt they'll ever allow them there. Same coffee as Safehouse. Ron the mechanic at Scoot Over is a...

    Low Resistance Magnum Atomizers

    Of the first three I got, one died after maybe 25 drags. Oddly, that was the one I had reserved for "dark" juices like Rath Waffle, Ms T's Caramel Chocolate Brownie, and Ms T's French Toast. The other two, I rotate daily (lighter juices only), and both are still going strong after about 3...

    Looking for a new device, I want to step it up.

    I'm with Dox on the Vypr 510. I have a black one, I'm using the Low Resistance atties from Nhaler, and I love my stainless shorty T-Tip. It's small, looks cool, and vapes like a smokestack. The 14500 battery lasts forever, and I'll generally change it out in the morning before I take it to...
