    AHHHH I'm moving to Korea on Wednesday morning

    In theory, if it's for personal use, you shouldn't have trouble. In practice, even if it's industrial quantities, they're unlikely to check. (But if they do the tax can be high- 600won (60 cents US) per ml.) So I'd bring what you need, b ut don't go overboard. Ande PS- What mods have you got??

    Pre Veteran Thread (2012) - Everybody is Welcome !

    HEY! I'm about to turn vet!! Haven't been around the forum too much lately- got busy with some other things. (New baby in the house, and we've moved as well. And work has been heavy...) But...I'm still with you in spirit, and in the flesh occasionally. Most importantly, it's been a year with...

    Using dip tobacco like snus

    Has anybody tried this? I've used snus occasionally over the years. It didn't get me off the smokes, but I like it. (vaping got me off the smokes.) But living where I do, snus is hard to come by. Mail order only, and tax doubles the price. I live near an army base, though, so US smokeless...

    Dead shipments ,plz help ?

    A lot of countries, including most I've lived in, don't do well with USPS tracking. My packages to Korea show on tracking as "in the US" until they get to my house, and sometimes for several days after I have them. Ande

    All RESed up again...

    Just got my new ceramic wick for my ultramax. VERY happy to be using the RES again. :-) Advice to everybody- the RES is a great system, it takes a little practice to use, but it's worth it. Consistent juice delivery, perfect flavor, never leaks. It's not as hard to break as I would have...

    More on ecig availability in Korea

    ...I was in technomart yesterday, and went to a few places that I've bought vape supplies before. Two were selling their remaining supplies and not planning to get more. (One of these two showed me the anti-ecig article on the Korea Herald website to explain why.) The Janty store seemed...

    Local NW Floridian with severe injuries from exploding ecig battery

    I believe that a number of manufacturers have failed to be as safety conscious as they should. But I own a couple of mods, all of which came with very specific information about which batteries to use, and how to use them. It seems that the serious explosions may be tied to using batteries...

    GG and Other Random Parts

    I'm not sure if he's got a GGTS to spare, or just GGTS parts. (the post isn't too clear on this point.) Sexual discrimination? Ummm...until now I thought you were a dude. But whatever- everybody struggles to come to terms with all the technology and terminology when they start, guys and gals...

    Another RES Question

    As far as I know, the RES doesn't (yet, hopefully) have an adaptor to allow it to be used on other devices. (It's an integrated piece of the alpha, and doens't have a standard sort of connector that would enable you to use it on other devices. Best, Ande

    Got my Apex Alpha Ultramax+R.E.S. Looking for tips on using.

    I'm gonna say that half an hour is WAY long enough. Try this- start with a dry RES, put ten drops in the atty. Then instead of waiting, just slowly blow into the drip tip. (Slowly and gently) This should force the liquid into the RES. Wait a minute of so for any excess drops to soak in, and...

    GG and Other Random Parts

    You are in for a treat. Lots of fun stuff to learn. A GGTS is...hmmm. Search the forum. It's a fun search. (Just go to the "Golden Greek" subforum, and you'll find lots. A buzz is an early variable voltage device. :-) And a pretty cool one, I think... Ande

    Got my Apex Alpha Ultramax+R.E.S. Looking for tips on using.

    I'll bite- I'm a semi-new Apex ultramax user. Had it since november. About the driptip getting hot- you'll get used to it. OR get the delrin ones. Same shape, much less heat conductivity. (I often use cartos with mine, and the heat is a lot less.) 40 drops is a lot- if the draw is too stiff...

    GG and Other Random Parts

    Dammit. First time I ran into you in the pub, I was perfectly satisfied with my 510. Then came mods, toys, all kinds of cartos and atties...spending too much time and money on vaping... Hell yeah, I'd probably be interested. If you have anything cool to play with. :-) Maybe we should get a...

    Cartomizers

    Hey Darkpoet- Did you order nic from Healthcabin, or just flavors? I've been having trouble with nicotine juice getting intercepted recently... Did yours make it through without customs hassles? Best, Ande

    Stacking Batteries?

    Safe? Not completely. How unsafe? Or how safe? Or how dangerous? It really REALLY depends. Buy good batteries, and the right batteries. Use the right charger. CHECK that you're getting the right voltage off the charger. Use only either protected Li-Ion batteries, or safe chemistry...

    Will be seeing you in the pub, I believe. I assume you'll be carrying the wow round with you for a while. And if you're really not using the DCCs, I'll always take some... :-) Ande PS- Waiting to see how health cabin delivers to Korea...

    Snap, Crackle & Pop

    New cartos (or atties for that matter) are a little hotter (and make more sound effects) than they are when they've been in use for a while. (Build up on the coil cools them down just a little bit.) Recently filled cartos generally have a little extra liquid on the coil (which also means more...
