    Closing in on 2 years + 7 months tobacco-free. Not a single analog since my first vape - and I don't miss them at all.

    Why do all the experience vapers out there seem to all use mods?

    I've been vaping since October 09 and I do not use a mod. My preferred e-cig is the KGO.

    Is there any way to lower nicotine levels with an e cig but still have a good throat hit?

    I've found that most of the flavors from Virgin Vapor have a great throat hit at the 12-16mg nicotine level. No other juice I've tried does as well below 24mg.

    Best Coffee (complex/deep/rich/stong/sweet) opinions

    I like this juice because it has a very clean taste but the flavor, even at double flavor, is pretty weak. If I order again it will be triple flavor.

    20 yr smoker taking the plunge

    That kit comes with cartridges, not cartomizers. I would strongly recommend that you order some LR cartomizers for your KGO or you may be very disappointed.

    Cartomizers ???

    I tried the tank and hated it because you lose a lot of the flavor of the juice. I love LR cartomizers.

    20 yr smoker taking the plunge

    That's an overpriced setup and it's probably not a very good ecig. If you feel that you must have a slim ecig I'd recommend the Volt from Smokeless Image or the 808D-1 from Vapor4Life. If you're ok with trying something that will last longer I'd recommend the KGO with LR cartomizers. I got...

    Best Coffee (complex/deep/rich/stong/sweet) opinions

    My current favorite coffee flavor is from Virgin Vapor: Kona Coffee Milkshake. Other good ones are WowCoffee from Vapor4Life and Keoke Coffee from MyFreedomSmokes.

    How long have you quit smoking?

    Closing in on the 2.5 year mark now - no lapses. I started at 36mg and now vape 12-19mg on my KGO. Favorite juices are from Virgin Vapor.

    getting sick

    It depends upon what you mean by "getting sick" I think. When you quit smoking your body tries to get rid of built-up toxins, so you may feel almost flu-ish during the process. If that's what you're experiencing, don't worry - it will pass.

    Help me purchase for my longtime smoker dad

    I managed to quit with one of those pen styles from V4L. I was a heavy smoker of 37+ years and I quit immediately. Not only that but I used those 808's exclusively for almost two years. I still use them occasionally. You do NOT need a large e-cig to be happy. My reason for recommending the...

    Help me purchase for my longtime smoker dad

    I would recommend a KGO with LR 1.7 cartos like the Resurrectors from Crystal Clear Vaping, though other vendors sell them using different names. For e-liquid I would go with an assortment of strengths: 18mg - 24mg - 36mg. You can't be sure what strength will suit him best.

    i wont be able to vape. where do i get my nicotine from???

    You could use the patch and buy some VG from the drugstore to put in your cartos to satisfy the hand-to-mouth urges.

    Looking for guidence

    Yes, you can buy a tank that will work with your KGO. - A KGO is a 510. - An atty is an atomizer, which you use to drip on for testing flavors - or for all-around vaping. Personally I hate them and they drive me nuts but you can make your own decision. - A carto is a cartomizer, which is an...

    nic is a poison please don't kill a kid

    I'm guessing the vapetv host meant it tongue-in-cheek, though it was an irresponsible thing to say. You honestly believed that it was safe enough to drink? If a vapetv host told you to go eat an entire pack of cigarettes because it was safe, would you believe it - and do it? That could kill...

    nic is a poison please don't kill a kid

    I read your whole post and while I can't argue with you, I have to wonder why you feel the need to point out the obvious. I'm pretty sure that we all know nicotine is poisonous to children and it should be stored safely, out of their reach. I routinely keep all sorts of dangerous things away...

    I'm not trying to be difficult but...

    I have seen it, too. It's not your imagination. In my experience it's not the vets who are dissing particular e-cig models; it's people who are fairly new to vaping and have found their Vaping Nirvana. They want to spread the joy but they're making the mistake of thinking that their way is...

    I'm not trying to be difficult but...

    I feel that way when I see people dismissing the 808's out of hand as somehow inferior - they're not. Lots of vapers have been using them successfully for years. The bottom line is that everyone is different and their tastes in e-cig models, juices and accessories will vary widely. That's ok...

    Wierd taste in some Canadian flavors

    That's a first - baby powder taste?! I wonder if you're describing that chemical taste that so many e-juices have. I hate that. I can recommend several vendors whose juice does not have a chemical smell/taste, and I'm sure others will chime in soon with their favorites. Remember that taste...

    I think that voltage info is here somewhere but I'm not sure exactly where.
