    Where do you put in the juice?

    Some modder is ordering this while I type. Can't wait to see what they come up with. :) Ande

    Used mod prices

    I guess...some people are just a little silly? ("Dumb" sounds harsh. But take your pick.) It seems clear to me that IF a used item is in on classies for more than it could be bought for new, AND it's available now, new...either there's something I don't know, or it won't sell. But there...

    Positive UK newspaper article

    I believe one cigarette is equal to about 1000ml of juice. THerefore, 20 liters of juice is the equivalent of a pack of cigarettes. And I would prefer to be taxed at that rate. :-) Ande

    Patent Threat to Europe E-Cigarette Trade

    Am I reading the dates wrong on this thread, or is this a long-dead resurrection? Correct me if I'm wrong, but all of this went on late 2010, didn't it? Is there any new information to consider that caused it to be brought back to the top? Best, Ande

    The best all around e-cig

    Yeah- the question was clear. It was also a silly question. That is really why you're getting the responses you're getting. I do not have a favorite food, a favorite color, or a favorite ecig. I like, as most people do, several in each category. The question comes up fairly often around here...

    The best choice, and especially with COPD and emphysema, is to QUIT. But...if he's still smoking, even now, he's probably not gonna quit. He really should talk this over with his doctor. The best evidence seems to be that quitting would be best, vaping would be worse than total quitting...

    The Guardian: "Sales of e-cigarettes soar, but do they really work?"

    I think the "do they work" question is odd, in the context of an article indicating that sales are soaring. Why would I keep buying something that doesn't work???? Best, Ande

    The best all around e-cig

    What's the best car? Which is the best computer? Best food? Best whiskey? When we smoked, we smoked a lot of different brands. Why would vaping be different? My "best" is unlikely to be your "best." Best, Ande

    12 Hours to find the Perfect Mod for my Wife... Help!

    With underpowered ecigs (ego) I tend to hold the button too long as well. With more "oomph" in the PV, short drags'll do me. Get VV. Best, Ande

    “Study finds e-cigarettes affect airways, and quickly”

    +1 DC2. I'd add- it's not just our lives. There are a LOT of people dying as a result of the slow uptake of THR. More than you can count. Maybe more than we can ever calculate. THIS is why we aren't "nice" to the poor misguided researchers who just have a different point of view. Too many...

    Budget Mod

    MORE VAPOR. This is one of the things you get from a good mod. More vapor, on demand, than higher production ecigs. Also, longer product life. Also, cooler. (In terms of style, not vapor. The vapor is hotter. ) Best, Ande

    “Study finds e-cigarettes affect airways, and quickly”

    These are wise, moderate, and sensible words. Problem is, in this media age, they mean less than one might think. The famous FDA press release of 2009 is a great example- the actual science behind it, though questionable, probably DID add a thing or two to the universal pool of knowlege...

    “Study finds e-cigarettes affect airways, and quickly”

    RE- the "no-nicotine" study mentioned here by others. Another problem we have in this field is that studies with very limited implications (say, a valid study of how clueless new users absorb nicotine in brief inefficient use of low quality ecig products), are referred to as if they prove...

    “Study finds e-cigarettes affect airways, and quickly”

    The thing is, I don't think we're going around debunking and criticizing articles and research procedures out of some blind prejudice that keeps us from seeing the truth. I think we're going around debunking garbage. The question you should be asking yourself is not "Why do Vocalek, Kristin...

    Home plus

    Hey- I've been in one country since August! That's pretty good for me. It's just a month, and probably will still be weekending in Seoul. (Have the fam with me, and only a studio in Daegu.) I've been vaping the juice from homeplus all week, and it's alright, but not inspiring. A good backup if...

    Protected batteries vs IMR - safety

    "Safe chemistry" is a little like "safe sex," and using "protected batteries" is a little like "protected sex." There ARE inherent risks in all of the above, but if you observe basic safety precautions, all can be done without too severe a risk. (and all can be a pretty good time.) Maybe the...

    Response from Senator Brown (Ohio)

    I agree that we should be able to count on vendors to supply what it says on the label. The best way to ensure this, though, is NOT to take them off the market. Which is what the FDA has tried (and failed, so far) to do. Interesting that they don't mention that the FDA was being sued (in a...

    Problems with FreedomSmokesUSA?

    Just wrote a reply to this that disappeared in the posting stage. Short version: Shipping overseas is a crapshoot. Into the ROK, more so. I've ordered from FSUSA and had no trouble, but there are so many factors that you're always taking a risk. Not much the folks at FSUSA can do about it, but...
