    I am beginning to understand what Big Tobacco really fears about vaping.

    Big tobacco has been in the e-cig industry since 2012 and loving it. They still have 20% of the population smoking and now they've got hobby vapers. Lorrilard owns Blu Cigarettes for instance. (I can't remember what brands Lorrilard has, Benson and Hedges maybe?) British American Tobacco and...

    Why do all of my DIY mixes suck?

    Hi there, Dickbutt in North Carolina! And Jobe84, this might interest you too. In post #2 at the below, TFA suggested percentages are given for you to play with according to your own personal taste. Start on the weak side then slowly (and keep notes) add more flavoring. But also make sure...

    Halo Drama?

    Well I for one, have no clue why there was even a lawsuit happening. How can Halo own the term, "Evo" ? Evo is a brand of ecigarette that has been around a looooong time. As has the Intellicig's ECO-pure brand of eliquid. And how similar sounding is "Nico"-pure to "Eco"-pure? Thin ice and glass...

    Need help switching to ecig

    Hi Tawney and welcome to ECF! I have been vaping for 5 years. I started with, still have, and am a die-hard fan of, the M401, which is a cig-alike. The M401 'automatic' battery is a bit longer than the sisters M402/3 battery. The M401 battery is a 280mah battery and runs around 2.7 volts. The...

    M401 Cartomizers and Aquamizers? a dream come true?

    for those fans of the M401, we are not left behind, maybe. I've been perfectly satisfied with my personal hoard of batteries and atomizers for the last several years, but decided to see what progress had been made in the meantime. Found a lot of 510 connectors, and a lot of KR808 connectors, but...

    CBS News Article..Interesting comment by Mitchell Zeller, director of the FDA's Center for Tobacco Products

    I was hoping for a good announcement for a change, after reading that Blu (and ws it NJoy, USA?) was/were snapped up by Big Tobacco in a recent move. And with Playboy Empire in the game, maybe our industry just took a quantum leap?! If that paraphrase is confirmed as a quote, I'm all in. Now...

    im so frustrated cant find the right cartomizer

    what you have, my friend, is a Smoore Xpower900 and it is not a M401 or 2 fitting (a 401 cart would have recessed not protruding threads). Do a forum search on xpower900 and see what you find out about it. The good news is, they now have seethru cartomizers (aquamizers) coming on the market for...

    Why is everything i make so harsh on the throat?

    try upping your VG percentage - the nic solution is likely PG based so when you add it to a 50/50 mix you're drowning out the VG and increasing the overall PG content = raspy throat. Happy Vaping!

    Have my vaping stuff but still caved in and smoked today :(

    if you're going with VV and tank mods, it might be best to keep your nic level where it is or even cut it in half to 6mg - reason being, you will go thru much more liquid with high-powered rigs than with a mini. You're gonna want to smoke that VV like a freight train - unlimited almost liquid...

    New to e-cigs, need expert advise please...

    Hi John and welcome to ECF ! the mini's 'are' the M306/510 and the M401. You can find M401 and 510 starter kits at several of the registered vendors. I strongly suggest you compare pricing before you pull the trigger on any purchase and bear in mind supplies for the M401 such as atomizers...

    Which type of Atomizer or Tank that gives the most flavor vape.

    Hi Mookster and welcome to ECF :) do you use the same atomizer for both liquids? if you are, then use different ones for different flavors decide what are you looking for in the citrus? more orange-y? lemon-y? decide what are you looking for in the apple mint? more apple or more mint-y? buy...

    What flavors mix well with cinnamon?

    If you're looking for just a cinnamon taste, try 90/10 pear cinnamon and work up from there maybe? - pear is a very subtle flavor with a sweet undertone that might cut that aftertaste. Coffee would be an entirely different experience you might also like. strong flavors tend to 'stick around'...

    What else is out there of the same size as the M401?

    Hi there Sludge, has it stopped raining yet? some summer, eh? I just popped on after an absence myself, and being a die-hard 401 fan, myself, started looking around the old haunts. I found M401 cartomizers (fancy that) at Sharp-Smoker.com so I know they exist, but haven't found them anywhere...

    Long time gone, what did I miss?

    Fluval - the badge of pioneers LOL - at least we knew it was 'fish-safe' green ! right? I'm off to discover the new world of adapters, there's something I can evolve my 401 into, I'm just sure of it :) See ya around ECF!

    Madvapes is admitting to being hacked.

    Hi Train2, and welcome to the forum! Just to expound a little on your post, we HAD paypal at one time - they shut our community off. We HAD good mc/visa processors - they also shut our community off - all compliments of, yes, our little government helpers at the FDA who are there to...
