    Testimony needed to defeat 70% TAX on e-cigs in Hawaii (and eventually other states!)

    Speak for yourself. I haven't been a smoker for over two years thanks to vaping. Just because it looks like smoking doesn't mean that it IS smoking. If using nicotine is the standard of measure, that means that anyone who stops smoking by using the patch or gum is a smoker - and we know...

    Ego vs Kgo

    I think that the KGO operates at a higher voltage than the EGO, which makes it superior for some people. I have one on the way from Hoosier and I can't wait to give it a try.

    Ready for my first PV purchase... Almost

    If you're buying your KGO from Virgin Vapors, I'd strongly suggest that you buy your e-liquid there, too. They have some of the BEST juices out there. Try Kona Coffee Milkshake.

    Dealing With Negativity About Vaping

    I remember that some smells really bothered me when I was pregnant. She may be fine with the smell after the baby is born.

    cartos won't work w/ epower- HELP! (and a kinda funny story)

    My E-Power just started working for some reason! I've been using it now for nearly a week without a problem which is strange because I bought it a couple of months ago and it would not turn off. I changed the switch - no joy. Then I changed the spring but it still wouldn't work. I left it on...

    Got some new gear, now have some questions....

    If you really want to salvage your e-liquid you can use a pipette like the ones they use for DIY and suction it out, then put it into a new carto. I do this with the excess liquid that collects in the condoms. It doesn't take long to get enough to fill a carto. Waste not, want not!

    I think it takes about an hour after your 5th post.

    Dear Non-Smoker,

    Too many nonsmokers nowadays believe that they have a license to be rude.

    Travel and Vaping Flying with E-Cig

    I flew recently and they advised that if you are carrying lithium ion batteries they need to be in your carry-on. They saw my e-cigs and never gave them another glance. The tube of Dora bath gel, however, got us a stern warning from the TSA man! (It was oversized; Santa should have been more...

    I chain-vape while I chain-mod-hunt

    I think we have lots of chain-vapers on the forum and I'm one of them!

    New user looking for opinions and input

    Every 100mah translates into roughly 1 hour of vaping time, depending upon some variables like the resistance of your cartos and how frequently you vape. A 1300mah battery will probably last you all day before it needs recharging.

    Does anyone use nicorette while vaping?

    You should try moving up to 36mg. That's what I needed to stay off analogues and I was @ 36mg for over a year.

    Vaping 100% VG In A Carto

    I think it depends on the vendor. The 100% VG from Virgin Vapor is quite thin and works beautifully in cartos. I've tried others that were quite thick but given enough time and care, the juice soaks into the carto eventually.

    36 MG liquid to start?

    I was a ~1.5 PAD smoker for 37+ years and I used 36mg for well over a year. I needed it to keep me off the analogs. I gradually cut down to 24mg and stayed there until fairly recently; I cut down to 19mg a couple of months ago. I figure that I'll probably cut down again sometime this year but...

    Feel, not flavor, vapor, or throat hit, feel! Nic strength is not feel, that’s throat hit... FEEL!!!!

    I don't know how much has changed in a year's time but there are certainly plenty of new models to choose from - and it sounds like you need at least 5v so you'd probably do well with a VV mod of some kind and low resistance cartomizers. Make sure that your nic level is high enough to satisfy...

    What can I do thats right for me?

    I was a heavy smoker who quit instantly with the Vapor King Ultimatum kit - and that's all I used for 1.5 years. Then I got a bit tired of constantly changing batteries/cartos, so I started trying other models like the IGo, Riva and E-Power. Of the three, the Riva is my favorite. (And I still...

    Honey E-Juice

    I've tried the honey flavor from MyFreedomSmokes and it's really good. I ordered it with extra flavor.

    Looking for another e-cig option

    They are both good bets but I would strongly recommend that you go with a manual battery because they're just better in my experience. I think that the first one is slightly more powerful but it probably has a shorter cutoff time. Edited to add: They both come in pretty colors but the Diamond...

    Any E-Liquid sample pack suggestions?

    Virgin Vapor has several different variety packs of samples. They have some truly tasty e-liquids!

    After 1 week of Vaping .. Still not craving an analog :) , But.....

    I think you'll be very pleasantly surprised. I smoked heavily for 37+ years and from my first vape, I have not smoked since.
