    can you charge an ego with a reg 510 charger?

    i'm having trouble finding the answer to this. i have a 510 and love it, but am thinking of buying an ego for longer battery life and more convenience. can i just buy an ego battery and use my 510 charger or does it not fit?

    Vanilla?

    agree wholeheartedly. vanilla cream is the only flavors that come close. reg vanillas don't seem to work from my experience. i totally gave up on vanilla after many failed attempts and wasted money. just as a note: stay away from dekang vanilla. chemical tasting and gross. they go under...

    any way to safely remove LED light?

    hey, quick question. i'm vapin' a 510 and suddenly sick of having to cover up the blue led light with my pinky. i thought it was cool at first but it's just too strange to me in public now. any way to remove or disable this light safely and quickly without buying a new battery or damaging this...

    Feeling very very low :(

    yea just this week. i manage to vape when i'm not busy, but notice i've been grabbing my regular cigs more and more, almost naturally. caught myself today, i forced myself to just vape all night at work, but when i got in my car there was a pack of smokes on the seat. i just picked it up and...

    Food coloring in flavoring

    still unknown, but to be avoided if possible. there's really nothing we know about vaping in general being safe, other than the logical assumption it's safer than cigarettes. how unsafe is it though, no one has the slightest clue.

    frustration

    it's tough. if you put in the work to go about a week without analogs, even if you crave one, and just continue to vape, you'll notice you'll finally detach yourself from the need of a regular cigarette. doesn't always last though. i've gone 3 months without the thought for an analog, but then...

    LOL think i overdid it...

    lol well at least you're organized. i've got all my stuff layin' out on my kitchen table and it looks horrible. definitely feel like some kind of pathetic junkie lookin' at it all! haha

    New here... this looked like the best place for me to vent...

    a cigarette is not the answer. i think you've done very well in that regard, and should stick with vaping. it's not the end of the world if you have an analog though. fortunately you can smoke whole packs of cigarettes and return to vaping without issue most times. having an analog, you may just...

    Feeling in the minority re: cartos

    i'll fill a cart every once in a while on special occasions when i have some time on my hands. i like the taste of my juice in a cart, but yea cartomizers and carts are actually less convenient in my opinion. just carry juice and drip, because most of the time you're going to be dripping a drop...

    How do you de-stress?

    music. constantly listening to music when i have free time, or i'm making music, even if it's terrible, sound is something you can control and it feels good to manipulate it to your liking. meditation is my last resort. i don't meditate in any way other than just sitting on my bed and...

    Depression

    I have bipolar depression and this is so true, i def agree. it's always looming somewhere, but it's just a matter of whether or not it's going to come my way, full force, on any particular day. i was on an obscene amount of meds for a while, but i didn't want to be a zombie any longer so i just...

    OK..got the 510.. waiting! More noob "?'s'

    vg, or glycerin, can be found at wal-mart by the pharmacy/lotions. uhh don't think you can extract your own nicotine in any way that i know of. i think it's a pretty complicated process for manufacturers. a lot of mods aren't related to building their own attys, it's more about the power...

    How long did it take you to get used to not having a cigarette?

    that was the hardest for me to get used to when i switched to vaping. that initial "always warm' feeling. the increase in oxygen makes you lightheaded and feel dizzy and you're constantly hot from the better circulation. that took about 2 weeks, now i don't have a problem with it.

    Dealing with depression....anyone want to start a group?

    I'd be interested. i've struggled with bipolar depression, had a few weeks hospitalization twice at age 23. been great for a year and a half but it's creepin' back up on me from time to time. talking about it always helps for perspective!

    How long did it take you to get used to not having a cigarette?

    definitely agree. unless there's some serious health issue, don't worry about having an analog. honestly, after you might realize it's not as great as you thought, and it's always good to go back to one just to see how many misconceptions you have about how good it will be. the transition back...

    When do you crave an analog?

    i work in the social work field and occasionally i have to go back to an old place i used to work. it's at a much faster pace with very little time for a cig break. on these days i'll just smoke analogs because when i only have 2 minutes to smoke, i need something reliable and quick. other than...

    Sore throat?

    i had this problem when i first started vaping, because your throat is still recovering from smoking analogs. as your body repairs itself, especially in your throat and lungs, you'll get "baby" tissue that starts growing back making everything sensitive. after about 2 weeks i didn't have any...
