    Anti-smoking petition - Please sign!!!

    I'm finding talking to people around town that the biggest problem PV's face is bad science. Cigarette smoking is the WORST way to consume tobacco. Zero is best, but the fact is almost everywhere in the world that tobacco is available around 20% of the population will use it no matter what...

    Hi, I'm Scott, and I am a nicotine addict.

    It's really interesting to read this (again). It looks like for some people another side effect of switching to vaping is less of a desire to drink cola or flavored drinks. I haven't managed to completely quit smoking just yet (down from around 20 to about 3-5 per day) so I find I'm still...

    Carrying Case suggestions

    I tried setting up an old glasses case but sucked at cutting foam to make an insert and gave up on the idea. I ended up creating several kits depending on situation: Black standard Joye PCC - Great for going out, as 3 whistletip tanks and I'm good for a night MapVapes Black...

    How much is a pack where you live?

    Again, I laugh at you're response to *just* $13.50. I remember in my early 20's always thinking "if ciggies get to $15 I'm totally quitting". Well $15 came and went and I just kept on smoking. For me the final straw was a pregnant wife and an absolute NEED to quit. I'm so thankful I discovered...

    First time vaping in a pub

    Great points there. When you think about it, the only real difference between a Nicobate Inhaler and a PV is the visable "smoke". I totally understand that unless you've been exposed to vaping before (and the majority of the population hasn't) you see vapor and you think it's smoke. That was...

    How much is a pack where you live?

    I always forget how cheap smokes are in the good ol' USA. Last time I was there (start of last year) a guy at a convience store was amazed at how much we pay for smokes down here, and even more amazed that the population stands for it! He said any polly who tried the same thing there would be...

    First time vaping in a pub

    Hi all from down under! A few weeks ago I was travelling through regional Victoria for work (if you've never been to Oz, think large stretchs of nothing but brown land and the occasional pub). I stayed at two difference hotels and had dinner at a different restaurant each night (except for...

    ProVari -->> Black or Chrome, any comment is welcomed. :)

    Another "black" owner here. My Provari tends to cope a fair beating and there isn't a single mark on there yet. Definately the best purchase I've made so far...

    The New G4 Cartomizers!! In stock now @ COV

    -1 for the G4's. I ordered a pack as I love to try out new things. 1st one worked for about 2 mins and shorted out 2nd leaked like a sieve right off the bat 3rd lasted about 10 mins and died. I'm in no hurry to try no 4 and 5...

    Just ordered an eGo-T

    I've only had one eGo-T tank leak and I think it was my own fault. I was twisting the tank to be on the same side as the Provari's button. I think the twisting opened the hole a bit more and big leaks. Stopped doing that and haven't had a problem since!

    Love my Blu's....but whats next?

    I fell in love with one of those the moment I saw it. I joked to my wife that she'd kill me if I ordered that too since I'd only gotten my Provari a few days prior. She said I can have one for my birthday. Woot! Just waiting for here when they get the cherry red back in stock and they order's...

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

    Similar situation for me. I really shouldn't be allowed to shop online. I've spent a total of $1388.93 on vaping gear so far (Aussie dollars) and have "saved" $376 on not buying ciggies. At this rate I should break even by around the end of August myself. Of course, I'm sure I'll order...

    How do YOU organize your cartos?

    I've got a great "Stanley" box that I'm guessing is designed to be used to store electrical bits and pieces, or maybe fishing supplies. It does a great job of storing vaping gear! Unopened cartos stay in their original boxes in the second bottle draw along with some 38mg/ml unflav VG juice...

    Silly QOD: What's in the exhaled vapor?

    @SC: That's great news. More ammo to add to the pro-vaping arsenal :) Since of the concerns the "anti-ecigs" groups like ASH US keep crowing about is that we are exposing "evil nicotine vaper to non-smokers". Looks like that's not the case...

    Fear of replacing one addiction with another

    My wife is still a little concerned about how much I vape compared to how much I used to smoke. What can I saw, I enjoy it! Seriously though, according to the figures I've read on nic content and absorbtion my vaping habits seem to match quite well to how much I used to smoke. Having read all...

    Love my Blu's....but whats next?

    I've been using the duel coil cartos on eGo batteries without any problems at all. I do prefer to use them on my Provari, but I don't tend to take that little baby outside the house much (too bulky compared to using a eGo or 510 PCC and looks to much like a pipe bomb ;)

    Confused Old Lady - 50 Yrs Marlboro Reds - Grateful for Any Help, Advice, Recommendations

    Reading stuff like this just re-inforces to me how wonderfully supportive the vaping community is. I wonder if it's the flipside of being treated so badly as smokers for so long. It's such a shame that "health" groups won't recognise the benefits of e-cigs since there doesn't seem to be a...

    Well second post might as well be here as a little introduction: Hi everybody! Been a regular on AussieVapers since I first starting vaping about 6 weeks ago. Went from knowing practically nothing about electronic cigarettes to having a huge collection of gear, running an educational blog on...
