    Vaping at the pub? (or bar if you don't live in the UK)

    The "I'm not breaking any laws so leave me alone buttface!" response isn't going to work, though. Most places (def the UK, I used to tend bar there.) have laws that allow owners/managers A) to refuse service or admission to most anyone, at their own discretion within broad limits; and B) to set...

    Does that thing work????

    It's an old post- let it die. This is not the place for discussions of meat eating. (I accidentally started that whole digression, by mentioning that vaping in public, sort of like being publicly vegetarian, sometimes causes others to act defensively and make silly comments.) Some of the...

    NEW Call to Action!! Tacoma-Pierce County Bait & Switch?

    ....ity .... ..... Just wanted to take a moment and say thanks to all of you. I haven't been to the affected area for years, but...you gotta fight it where it is. I'll go and post my comments for the board of health... But thanks guys. We're in this together. Ande

    Ban Birthday Cakes!!!

    You've been lucky. But remember, even thirty seconds of exposure can elevate your risks. It CAN kill you in minutes. And within 100 years, it's sure to. The only safe thing is never to be near smoke. Ande PS- The safest thing, which would avoid smoke, candles, cakes and birthdays...

    Concerned about my Blood pressure and cholesterol, vaping constantly...

    My BP has always been normal- last few years (smoking too much, got a too sedentary job) it was tending towards high. Not enough to medicate, but enough to watch. Since I quit smoking, and started vaping, I've dropped right back into the middle of the normal range. Just one person- does it...

    Abroad for a couple months, worth trying to go electronic?

    I've travelled quite a lot, and wouldn't have found it easy to take up ecigs while traveling. There are too many elements to the learning curve, and cigarettes (the other kind) are so convenient. If you decide to go for it, I'd say give up on the "cigarette lookalike." You'll have a somewhat...

    In trouble from spouse for spending money again!

    I wear the pants in the family. :-) My wife wears the skirts. And I gotta say, she looks a LOT hotter in the skirts than I do in the pants. I wash, and iron, both the pants AND the skirts, it's true. But I never liked the way she ironed. Seriously, though. Gotta love her. I've spent...

    Dr. Murray Laugesen: How much nicotine do we absorb?

    As I understood it at the time (don't have a second to go check in the article now, so correct me if I'm wrong): That's "10% of the nicotine that we would get from a similar sized puff on a real cigarette." (ie, vaping provides much less nicotine, puff for puff, than traditional cigarette...

    Jessy e-cig in the US

    It makes a decent difference. I've tried it in a shop, probably should have bought it. Didn't then, but might one day soon... It's really well made, and has a LOT of cool features. "Safety" which means "off" mode. USB passthrough. Two or three different "voltage" settings, depending on model...

    How Long Does a Cartridge Last

    THat may explain why you're not flooding- I'm probably running quite a bit cooler than you are... (Regular resistance atties at the same voltage as your egos...) Ande

    Who Else Vapes All Day? I mean ALL DAY..

    Times sure have changed. Helluva story though. I vape pretty much all day at the moment. (I'm in a work from home period, and pretty much on the computer from sunup to bed-time.) Got a pass through, got a drip tip, never seem to stop. When I started vaping, though, I was teaching at a local...

    How Long Does a Cartridge Last

    And now I'm wondering if we're vaping at different temps- 5 drops will flood heck out of mine. :-) Ande

    How Long Does a Cartridge Last

    Depends on how you puff/drag, I guess. 20-30 drags, that's a good two ciggies worth for a lot of folks. The bridge on my 510s holds 2-3 drops, depending on how dry it is. That's maybe 5-8 drags, depending. 20-30 good drags off a cart sounds okay- it's always "more or less" depending on how...

    How Long Does a Cartridge Last

    There are LOTS of ways to get juice to your atty. I'm one of the few, apparently, who like the "regular" carts okay. As long as you fill them properly and replace the "stuffing" when it needs it, I find them to be more durable, reliable, and leak proof than most other options. Also like smart...

    Sucking a Golf Ball

    Could be clogged holes, but if you can inhale/exhale easily through it when it's not on the battery, I think you're tightening it too much? It should be tightened enough to seat it on the battery properly, and no further Or possibly flooding it. Ande

    510s still the bees knees?

    But maybe the simple answer is...the 510 (meaning the "original" Joye 510 and all the differently labled versions of the same thing) is a pretty good ecig. 510 is my favorite kind of atomizer, especially for dripping at home. It's hot, lots of vapor, easy enough to clean. Easy draw. I'm not...

    E-cigarette article on ACS web site

    But of course, that doesn't matter. According to the AMA, "Cutting down doesn't reduce your risks." ( http://www.ama-assn.org/ama1/pub/upload/mm/433/hl_smoking.pdf ) Nonsense science, of course (last I checked, dosage was an important factor in assessing risk in toxicology and carcinogenesis)...

    OK, so how much money have you spent so far???

    I'm two months and a bit in- closing in on the $400 mark, I think. In two months of analogs here, I would have spent... $130, maybe. So I'm way behind, and it won't get better. But I'm enjoying it... ANde

    Linn County, Iowa attempting to ban dissolvable tobacco products

    But keep writing to them, folks, if you haven't yet. Cause...the other side will. If somebody changes their vote...then it's a majority on the other side. Let them KNOW that the products they are talking about are safer alternatives to cigs that people NEED. Best, Ande PS- I haven't lived...
