    Why the hate on for recreational vapers?

    Sorry I haven't had time to read all the posts, I'm on my way to bed. Just thought I'd check in before I do so. I wholeheartedly agree with the OP. I'm on my last 300ml of 6mg, then I'm going for 0mg. The reason is that I hate any association between smoking and vaping. I even dislike the...

    Can someone please bring me up to date?

    The Spinners really are good, I have two of them. Just treat them with care. They seem not as robust as the ego. I've dropped my ego many times, and it's fine. I dropped my Spinner once, and it has problems now. EVODs are also really good. EVODs have a warmer vape than the Mini and a tighter...

    So Enough Already with the "You must do this" "You must buy that" Attitude

    I haven't really come across anything of that sought here. In fact last week I read someone ranting and raving about their kit not working, and the reply was, "look man, we're trying to help you here." The members on this site are only trying to help by giving their own personal recommendations...

    How do I know when a coil has gone bad?

    Interesting posts. I've recently been using 10ml bottles of liquid instead of the 50ml I usually use, (I'm going through an experimenting phase with flavors). At first I thought I may need to build a new coil, (EVOD/Protank coil), for changing every 2-3 days, ready for a new flavor. But simply...

    How fast did you lower your nic level ?

    I started on 18mg, quickly moved down to 12mg which is where I stayed for around 6 months or more. I moved down to 6mg last week when I was in bed with the flu and unable to vape at all. It just seemed like the right time to drop levels. I simply threw about 200ml of 12mg away. I have just under...

    The problem with electronic cigarettes...

    Good idea. Smoking a cigarette takes around five minutes, vaping the equivalent is apparently around 12 minutes. If there was some kind of timer, I could pace myself throughout the day, instead of having my MVP glued to my hand 24/7. Recently I have taken to stopping everything, relaxing and...

    travelling with gear

    Thanks Kent. This is part of the reason why I'm slowly going down to 0mg. I just don't know the future. If the future becomes a problem for Vaping, then if I'm on 0mg, I can always mix my own liquid and use Mech Mods. But I do enjoy a little nicotine. Einstein did and no one beat him up about...

    Why Multiple Devices ?

    I used to separate my kit into three: 1) MVP/Protank for home use 2) Vision Spinner/EVOD for out of the house 3) Ego/CE4 for use during any kind of work. But now, I'm so much in love with my MVPs that they are with me all the time now. I have put EVODs on them, I find them more portable this...

    travelling with gear

    Just a question, I'm currently on 6mg liquid, and will probably be at 0mg within the next two months or so, (probably). So, what are the regulations on 0mg liquids/vaping in those countries where vaping is banned? I have heard that vaping any liquid containing nicotine is illegal in Japan, but...

    If you could only one tip to a newbie what would it be?

    Selecting the right liquid. I gave up on many years of smoking in an instant trying out only a CE4 and non-vv Ego battery. I can only guess it must have been the juice that got me on board vaping.

    Giving Up on RBAs and RDAs -- Impossible for me to do!

    I understand your frustration to some extent, but as has been said, just try to enjoy it. It is a hobby after all. I have recently began building coils, and I've been experimenting with it for around one month now. I pick it up, give it a go with a few, then put it down for a few days. I've got...

    Have We Lost Our Flippin Minds..?

    Funny :) thanks for that! I guess it's part of the hobby. But you're right about the batteries. My Samsung gets pretty hot at times. Never worried about it blowing up though. I've reached a point in my vaping where I now want to stop all the researching and shopping, (for the time being)...

    New to Vaping, need all the tips I can get

    I would say that the most important is the liquid you buy. Whatever setup you have, if you don't like the liquid, then you're just not going to take to it. By saying the right liquid, I'm not referring only to nicotine levels, but flavor. It's so important! I regularly use an itaste MVP2...

    Tank advice?

    I'm going to go against the grain here, I would try an EVOD. I have the Protank II, (did have a mini but dropped it within 24hrs of having it arrive), but slowly I am beginning to enjoy the EVOD that little bit more. Sure, the Protank looks a whole lot better, I mean, it really is a good...

    iTaste MVP 2.0

    Ordered my second MVP 2 days ago. Just great vapers. I also upgraded from Vision Spinners, and I rarely use them now. When my second MVP arrives, I guess my Spinners will be redundant. I hear people say that they get 3-5 days out of one charge. I usually vape at 3.7v using 2.2-2.9 ohm coils...

    What are you waiting for in the mail?

    My second MVP2. Also some new EVODS. Contemplated for a long old time whether or not to get more Protanks or more EVODS. Decided to go with the EVODS. A selection of Hangsen 10ml 6mg oils. I've been somewhat narrow regarding the flavors that I vape recently, and have been buying only 50ml...

    Do you miss anything about smoking?

    Absolutely nothing. Don't even think about it. I look at all them smokers out there, and just think, they have no idea what they are missing out on. If smokers only knew: The enjoyment of keeping a selection of flavors Options on the great variety of kit to use Experimenting with...

    What are you listening to?

    Back in England I used to subscribe to a Hi-Fi magazine that every month recommended several audiophile CDs, along with a select cigar and wine to enjoy whilst listening to each CD. That idea has always stuck with me. I always enjoy coffee with my perfect vape, though I can't comment on...
