    Happy two months to me, thanks ECF!

    congrats! Christmas day was my 2 month mark so I am right there with you and loving the benefits......energy, breathing, taste, smell (sometimes for better and for worse), oh and did I mention ENERGY??? Glad you have stuck things out and things are good for you.

    uh oh what did I get myself into??

    as far as atty life, my wife and I are over 2 months now and our originals are still doing well.......yes I have gotten spares but have yet to have a need for them except to put on a spare battery for an inquisitive friend or two to try out. A quick cleaning once in a while and not running them...

    Juice Question

    I thought I was vaping a lot more than smoking and have come to two conclusions: When I first got my 510 I was........new toy syndrome. As long as you are not having any symptoms of getting too much nic you will be fine. Second, I find myself vaping MORE OFTEN but probably less overall, as I can...

    need a pv

    short answer.........BOTH. Money well spent and since the carts/cartos/atties are the same, you will immediately have a few spares no matter which unit you like better. I find there is actually a good time for each. Couple hours to dinner where I want to be inconspicuous....510. Long drive...

    New and Liberty Flights order.

    My last order from LF was also over a holiday weekend (turkey day). My shipping info finally posted on Tuesday but I received my order on Wednesday which was really good in my eyes taking into account the holiday. My impression would be that they prioritize on getting orders caught up and out...

    "OLD" New vapor

    don't know the why, but WATER consumption definitely helps me.

    Airing e-liquids

    I think it benefits some flavors more than others. from what I have tried smooth/sweet flavors have been good right from the get-go. I have had a few that tasted "perfumy" or harsh and found that several days to a week later they really started to shine and taste more like what I expected...

    refill

    by "cart" do you mean cartridge or cartomizer? (cartridge is used on a 3pc PV; batt,atty,cart. or cartomizer as in a two piece PV; battery and carto).

    the Dekang Cuban Cigar liquid I got from MadVapes has a very good cigar/leaf tobacco flavor although quite strong. added to something sweeter like an RY liquid it is very good.

    need a pv

    I also like the Ego for battery life and the size really isnt awkward at all, like holding a sharpie pen. If you really want to stay with the smaller pv though, a 510 with a couple batts and a PCC works well and is what I started with. The charging case and alternating batts meant I never ran...

    figured out why my at work experience differed from at home...

    possibly the material the different bottles are made from? You said the bottles at home are clear....something else to consider at least. maybe try a small clear bottle for portable and see how it does. That would also let you monitor your juice for visual color changes.

    I'm a bad girl...

    on LR............I love my bogue 2.0s. Big difference over stock atty. From what I understand 2.0 ohm is about the lowest Id go for an EGO/Riva. Too low is said to overstress the switch and hurt the battery. welcome back !

    Thanks for all the good information - made my first purchase

    Welcome. Fortunately for me, we have always had the "no smoke in the house" rule so I didnt go through the be big cleaning phase so many others have. (I remembered helping my grandmother move and how you could see outlines of where alll the picture frames were hung on her walls when we took them...

    Its on the way!

    Congrats on the order, you may now begin the ritual of "stalking the mailman". I got a sample of cappuccino which I like; great flabor, but is REALLY strong. I do find it enjoyable though when mixed 50/50 with either my 555 or virginia tobacco juices.

    Newb Here: Owner of a 510

    gurgling: as already said, new or slightly overfilled. If I experience a gurgle, I take a lighter+longer draw. Even filling myself (know not overfilled) I sometimes get gurgling.....this lets me know I am taking too stiff a draw. Slow down a bit on new or freshly filled carts and it should go away.

    1 Week!

    congrats to ya lordnordeth. I remember how good I felt about making it through the first week. Mlinky.......wow on a month already, seems just yesterday you were posting all your questions about which PV to buy. Come to think of it, I just hit 2 months myself........how time flies...

    It really works! Wow!

    Have had good luck with cignot, LF, and MadVapes. If you are looking to get a couple extra attys, and remotely curious about bigger batteries, check out some of the deals on EGO/Riva starter kits. Right now the riva kit w/ discount is 29.99. For all the stuff included, it is a steal compared to...
