    Korean eliquids

    THanks for the report. I've been around Daegu and Busan recently, haven't passed through Seoul for a couple of weeks. Much the same scenario. Several shops seem to have closed, a few remain, and those that do are relatively expensive. May be time for me to learn to DIY juice... Best, Ande

    E-cig charger for 220 volt socket marketed as for 110 volt socket

    That's the thing- Ecig mod batteries are not entirely safe (and neither is anything else), but are more regulated and controlled, as they have been imported for a longer time and are imported for a wider variety of purposes. If I run out of ecig batteries, I can borrow a set from my wife's...

    hairloss??

    Genetics play strange dice. See a doctor if you're concerned, but...when a man starts losing his hair at age 19, there's usually only one reason. And only one possible conclusion. About going bald when you're married- don't worry. Any hair you have left at that time, you're sure to tear out...

    E-cig charger for 220 volt socket marketed as for 110 volt socket

    Just had a glance at the link- I really feel that someone is, yet again, reaching to find negatives on electronic cigarettes. Putting a 220 charger into a 110 volt socket won't be dangerous, though it may not work, or not work well. (The reverse isn't true. Put a 110 volt charger into a 220...

    E-cig charger for 220 volt socket marketed as for 110 volt socket

    Another thought- I'm about to follow the link and see what's up with this. I just wanted to chime in, though- Electronic cigarettes, at least according to my Canadian friends, are legal and available in Canada as long as they are the nicotine free variety. Best, Ande

    Korean eliquids

    PS- If you order more juice in your overseas order, you can improve the numbers a little. But...living here has many benefits, and some downsides.

    Korean eliquids

    I buy some locally, order some from overseas. IF your overseas order is stopped by customs, it works out slightly less expensive than local bought juice. Example- order 4 30 ml bottles from FSUSA- cost, ~$60 for juice, ~$20 for shipping. $80, plus, if customs gets it, another 72,000won for...

    Korean government attacks e-cigarettes

    This thread is to important to those of us who vape in Korea to let it get divisive and divided. I edited my previous post to remove rudeness. Those of us who live here (and others) need to see this for what it is. It is NOT a quality control measure. It's an attack on the ecig industry as a...

    Korean government attacks e-cigarettes

    The only reason (that we can be sure of) that Ovale (or any other company) wasn't named in the investigation is that NOBODY was named in the investigation. It has nothing to do with quality control. This "investigation" if I can dignify it with that name is worrying because it's trying to turn...

    Korean government attacks e-cigarettes

    Many brick and mortar stores were sort of worrying anyway (high prices, ignorant staff) but I'm worried to see them closing. And I can confirm that several have shut recently, though I can't confirm the reasons. Homeplus in Daegu, until recently my local supplier for reasonably priced juice...

    Korean government attacks e-cigarettes

    I guess I sort of DO see it as an attack on ecigs per se. Their refusal to name WHICH juices, cartridges, or products they tested certainly points in this direction- if they only wanted to crack down on substandard products, not damage the whole market, they would name names. Then nobody who...

    Which mod and some other questions

    1) What's a good cheap 5V mod iyo? 5v box mod from madvapes, of 5v WOW from clouds of vapor. Both well under $50. 2) Do I need a volt meter? Nope. It'll just vape around 5v, all the time. A meter would only bore you. 3) What is generally the lifespan of a mod in this price range? This I don't...

    Just received a "Fake" AW 18650 Battery !!

    The way I figure it, a new IMR battery is going to cost you less than $15. My face is worth at least $20. So why mess around with possibilities of blowing my face off? Ande

    artcile from Utah Deseret News

    An on/off switch? I'm not sure what this means. My ecig is currently off. If it were on, it would have burned a hole in my pocket by now... Of course, if it were left on for long, this would have ruined it, rendering it harmless to children and useless to me. I might find this consequence...

    Hawaii legislation (HB 2557) would tax e-cigarettes at 70% of wholesale price, ban sales to minors

    It's a gateway drug, alright. For me, it has been the gateway FROM smoking. Guess we have to tell'em. Again. Has anyone got addresses for Say et all? I'm overseas and can't visit, but would like to drop them a letter... Best, Ande

    Just received a "Fake" AW 18650 Battery !!

    Probably the same battery as the ones that were coming from Volcano. Would I use it- no. Not sure what it is, after all. I think, without being sure, that it's probably an unprotected lithium ion battery. This might (is often considered to) be safe to use in a mod with a protection circuit...

    RES with cartomizers

    Works well. In theory, you could fill the carto as usual (while not on the ecig), fill the RES to max by opening it and painting the ceramic wick, and have a good long vapetime on your hands. More often, I simply put the cartomizer on the ecig (with RES) absolutely drown the carto, blow out the...

    Well said- this is sort of the essence of harm reduction. I'm glad my wife didn't use nicotine, in any form, during pregnancy. IF however, she had been unwilling or unable to quit, I'd probably suggest that she go with the lowest risk products available. For her and the baby. Best, Ande

    analogs suck

    Could we get a link on the side effects you name? Haven't seen any reliable studies that make these sound more likely with snus than with analogs... Best, Ande
