    Why don't y'all come over here?

    PS- if 61% of Dutch smokers question the harmfulness of secondhand smoke, what makes them so sure that this means they are "woefully uninformed?" Sounds well informed to me...

    Why don't y'all come over here?

    On my way over. :-) Seriously- been there a few times. Nice country. And good to hear that people are starting to see a little sense. Ande

    Where does throat hit really come from?

    Lots of factors. PG or VG, or what blend. Nicotine level. Some flavorings add to the hit, some don't. And the gear you're using matters too- hotter vapor, or more vapor per second, increases the hit. Atty and carto design plays a role- how close is the coil to your mouth? And with all these...

    Which interface do I need?

    Same switch- I got both, and have moved the switches back and forth between them. Personally, I'd get the atty interface WITH switch, though- then you've got a spare. :-) ANde

    Apex Vapor Alpha Information Page; Have Questions, Concerns, Suggestions, New Product Requests, or Want to Ask N8T the Alpha engineer a question? Post

    I haven't had found the ceramic to be as fragile as I worried it would be. But I do feel like they should supply it to those that break them at a reduced cost. :-) Cause they wouldn't be that hard to break... Best, Ande

    Reply From The FDA

    True enough, though it's often enough difficult to determine what we need to "pro-act." Honestly, we need to be both- proactive and reactive. Reactive, in doing all we can to raise prevent regulations that are arriving, worldwide, every day. My version of proactive: Spend a little time every...

    What terrible vendors do to us, and everything wrong with this industry.

    THat's exactly it. I happen to LIKE buying juice from one of the stores near where I work. The guy who works there is friendly, let's me try flavors, shows me the latest equipment they got. THat's how to do it- make a go of your brick and mortar store by giving the advantages brick and...

    Health Care Myth

    T.h.=b.s.

    And more hot vapor transfers more heat to your mouth and throat, which results in a warmer vape. Think of how quickly a drop of water cools, versus how quickly a cup of water cools. Best, Ande

    T.h.=b.s.

    For me, the feeling in my throat is what makes it work. Can't quite explain it, but...the day I quit smoking, I had HEAVY cravings, and it wasn't the nicotine that "satisfied." (Nicotine takes minutes or at least seconds to hit.) But the feeling in the throat is what "does it" for me. :-)...

    Institute of Medicine committee report on Modified Risk Tobacco Products to be released today

    I loved your sign. :-) I may have it printed on t-shirts. (But I am not a vendor, just a rather vocal user.) As for standing up in court- I think intent can often be a key issue in legal findings. With your font sizes, one could argue that your intent is to make a health claim, or to confuse...

    Analysis of electronic cigarette vapor

    It's like a monkey reading a book upside down. Don't tell US what to do, we're scientists. We have to do research to tell the poor misguided USERS what's wrong with what they're doing. Really. It's depressing. Ande

    Moving to Korea

    As far as I know, nobody really "inflates" shipping- it's just sort of expensive to ship overseas. A lot of (most) US and European vendors will ship to Korea. Import taxes can be an expense, but it's still more fun than smoking, and can be cheaper if you're a little careful about your...

    Health Care Myth

    Thank you to the New England Journal of Medicine. THIS is what I'm thinking about when I hear about how much it costs "society" for smokers to smoke. As other posters have rightly pointed out though- this article only considers bottom line health care costs. Outside of the scope of the study...

    Moving to Korea

    I don't know anything about the australia side of things- if nicotine is restricted there, as I believe it is, you'll be better off not carrying too much when you fly. But don't oversweat it regarding the Korean side of thing. Ecigs are catching on fast here, and no problems I know of regarding...

    Lava Tube: Better and cheaper than the Provari (video opinion)

    I had a teacher once who said that opinions are like buttholes. Everybody has one, but some stink. :-) Or words to that effect. Probably can't say stuff like that in highschools anymore. Shame. Seriously- A lot of folks here are trying to make a case for a right answer, when what people want...

    Lava Tube: Better and cheaper than the Provari (video opinion)

    Look guys- some want a provari. Some want a lavatube and $181 dollars extra in their pockets. Some want a provari but only have a hundred bucks and get the lavatube. I could say pretty much the same thing about watches, cars, or whatever. We aren't all made the same- pretending there's a...

    Most rediculous shipping policy I have ever seen.

    Here's the thing- vendors get a LOT of grief. Y'all have seen a lot of the complaints about vendors that get posted here. A lot of them are nonsense from losers with an overdeveloped sense of entitlement. But the best vendors find ways to deal with the BS without actually (or seeming to) shirk...

    Non-Face-to-Face Sale and Distribution of Tobacco Products and Advertising, Promotion, and Marketing of Tobacco Products Deadline Extended to Jan. 19t

    Sometimes it ain't easy. BUT...if you start talking to me by cursing me out, I tend to tune you out. Same for politicos. So be forceful, but respectful. No curse words, but...make sure to say (politely) that this regulation could make it harder for people to get products which reduce the...

    Where to get vaping stuff in Korea.

    Dorothy? Hmmm. Haven't heard of it. If you could post a general description (or better, a photo) in the general forum area, someone may be able to help you get it working better in the meantime. It does sound like you may be overfilling it, or something else simple may be up- try it out. I've...
