    Vote for e-cigarettes over cigarettes in online doctors' poll

    Why wouldn't the vaping industry be paying for their own studies in regard to safety? The people who take Symbicort did not front AstraZeneca the money to run the tests on it. The users may end up paying for it afterward, but not until it's been proven safe and effective by AstraZ. Why should...

    Diacetyl is in tradition cigarette's. Why the outcry in E-Cigs? Just don't smoke the contaminated flavors

    While you attempted to deflect, you still did not deal with my post, instead some goofy strawman argument (which had nothing to do with the discussion at hand- since diacetyl does appear in our juices and is unnecessary in our juices, it is not by definition strawman, but if that's all you could...

    Diacetyl is in tradition cigarette's. Why the outcry in E-Cigs? Just don't smoke the contaminated flavors

    Then there's really no reason for people to switch to vaping for health reasons, is there? You can't call it a safer alternative if you acknowledge that it has crap in it, but that's okay because so does car exhaust. Using that reasoning, we all may as well continue to smoke cigarettes. It's...

    smoking rates and harm reduction

    The article was about an upcoming global conference of 171 countries to create a worldwide antismoking initiative and tobacco's less than thrilled response. It basically seems that everybody has the small and/or developing countries by the short hairs playing tug-o-war. Tobacco is suing them...

    Looking for a good tobacco juice-no flavors.

    I never appreciated any sweetness in either the Texas or the Tampa; I know there are a few other VS users on-board so hopefully they will give their opinion. Some of their other tobaccos though, like Tennessee, do have a bit of sweetness, as do their RY4 and VS4, although not as much as some...

    smoking rates and harm reduction

    Yes, it was the NY Times. US smoking rates were down 13%, British down 22%, and New Zealand down 25%. And if I'm following the little arrows correctly, it looks like Norway's smoking rate has gone up considerable despite a complete ban on cigarette advertising. The only reason I could think...

    Looking for a good tobacco juice-no flavors.

    I second the Vapor Station. When I first started vaping, I had absolutely no interest in baked goods or anything sweet. The Vapor Station Texas was the perfect substitute for my ultra light smoking. Depending on what your husband smoked, the Tampa may be better suited for him, as it was a...

    Why E ciggaretts is not been studied probably ?? what effects and side effects does it cause to our body? is it safer than regular cigs??

    They don't use PG in most asthma medications anymore (it may be in some, but none that I'm familiar with). I know in some instances it is either not used at all or they have replaced it with polyethylene glycol (as is the case with Symbicort). Even at that, there may be a difference between a...

    Horse back riders

    I've done fine with a cartos on a Riva, carrying a spare filled carto just in case. However, most of my rides are hour or so. If I spent a lot of time in the barn or out riding, I would probably invest in something from the Reo family, as they have the 3 or 6 mL juice feed and the aluminum is...

    Capellas Ingredients (label vs website)

    You have to keep in mind that for Capella's, the vaping industry is only a very small part of their business and pretty much an afterthought at that. Their primary clients are the diet industry and using their liquids for their true purpose, flavoring. I believe the thinking is that there a...

    thinking of DIY juice kit but have 1 question

    Some of those flavors you want to make are a little tricky, and your best hope would be to if your vendor also offered flavoring (for instance, you can get flavor concentrate from Vapor Renew if you wanted to DIY your own juice in their flavors). Otherwise, Perfumer's Apprentice makes a tobacco...

    Don't like low res atty

    I was the same way. I started with standard 510s on an Ego/Riva, and used LR atties and a 5V passthrough for about a week and completely quit smoking, but then went back to my standards. I still will occasionally use the LR atomizer and/or passthrough if I find a particular flavor weak...

    Auto batttery

    I was lucky and avoided the learning curve for the most part- starting with an Ego, adding a couple of Rivas, a box mod, and a black Silver Bullet. Lately, though, I've gotten the urge to try an automatic battery. I did get an automatic generic 510, but it has a really hard draw. So I guess...

    Good luck with getting your package. Hopefully it won't take too many more emails or phone calls.

    About Ready to Give a Bad Review to a (Good?) Company

    I'm not sure I really understand this. The same vendor is being vaguely alluded to in multiple posts about delayed service, bad customer service, ignoring emails, snarky emails, etc. But this is like flippin' Voldemort in that nobody wants to say their name, whether because of the abuse that...

    All these threads regarding safety and regulations, and my ranting

    I googled, too, but maybe there is a difference in sources. Your number three is correct, but that is the number of cases diagnosed with bronchiolitis obliterans at one particular popcorn plant in Missouri. There were also several other cases of pulmonary compromise among the employees at the...

    Pink

    You can get a pink Ego or Riva. Off hand, I believe Cignot carries the pink Ego and Liberty Flights has an unbeatable price for the Rivas ($30) although they are at the moment out of stock (I believe they're due back in a couple of weeks and then the frenzy begins anew).

    Ask your favorite suppliers to remove diacetyl from their e-liquids!

    I don't really agree with this analogy in full. If you were talking the Dekang premixed stuff, yeah, I could maybe see it, but if you're talking all the vendors with their custom mixes, then, no, it is not an appropriate analogy. As a matter of fact, it should be their responsibility to know...

    Hopscotch recipe?

    ROFL. Yes, I do believe that's been shown in clinical trials.
