    Joye eGo Cartomizer

    I bought a few of these on a whim to fill out a Cignot order for free shipping, and having had a growing curiosity about cartomizers. I'll quickly admit I hadn't researched the purchase enough, choosing instead to read up after my order was made. Syringe fill went fine, but I'm not sure I'll...

    Suddenly eGo-less - Advice sought

    Mine were the hard translucent switches. I agree basically with Brad's diagnosis, although I'm skeptical about LR as the sole factor, as I've been using them almost exclusively for months. What I suspect played a part (or at least knocked the switches over the edge) was that I had been hitting...

    Suddenly eGo-less - Advice sought

    Bad vaping day yesterday. I've been relying on my two eGo batteries for months, and both seem to have died yesterday, pretty much simultaneously, yet in different ways. I was having a run of lousy atty performance throughout the day and switching between three or four older ones (all LR) that...

    First e-cig: not enjoyable enough to quit analogs so looking for suggestions...

    Early on, I had that harshness issue for a while (weeks), especially early in the morning. It seemed like my lungs just didn't want to "welcome" vapor. For a short while I switched to VG liquids which seemed to help in what I guess is a conditioning process. When I eventually switched back to...

    White Glycerin film on Monitor (How to Clean?)

    I've seen this at Wal Mart/Sam's Club: Walmart.com: Digital Innovations Clean Dr. LCD/Plasma Screen Cleaner: Computers and the reviews look good.

    Your Favorite Flavors?

    For the past couple months, Gingerbread from Tasty Vapor. I only (and always!) vape it early in the morning through the PT at the computer because I'm afraid I'll tire of it if I start going all-day with it. Plus it's so pungent that a couple drops spilled or sweated in the bottle make me and...

    Getting ready to place my first order - Questions

    Welcome RedneckHippy. From your questions, it looks like your initial research has put you at a better starting point than many (myself included) here. 1. Yes: Omg just means no nicotine, but the typical blend of PG or VG with flavoring. Good for quitting nicotine altogether or for mixing...

    Do any of you vapers still smoke a few analogs once in awhile? If so, how many a day?

    It's interesting to hear from those whose remaining smoking impulses come while driving. Natural, I guess, especially since in our cars has become one of the few OK-to-smoke places in recent years. For me though, it's pretty rare that one of my 4-6 a day is smoked in the car--maybe once in a...

    Survived atty rebellion, unscathed

    I had a weird one the other day. I had been noticing an uncharacteristic harshness in my TV Tobacco (which I've been vaping happily for some weeks) that prevailed through several re-drips. In too much of a hurry to mess with or replace the atty, I just accepted it as additional throat hit. At...

    Earpish Query

    Along with my first FSUSA order came a sample bottle of Wyatt Earp. I love the generosity and smart marketing of an added sample, especially because I'd read a lot of mostly enthusiastic reviews of WE. I was surprised, though, by a strong note of cherry both in the vape and sniffing the bottle...

    Do any of you vapers still smoke a few analogs once in awhile? If so, how many a day?

    Even after quite few months, I allow myself 4-6 a day. Usually 5, lately. Haven't had that 7th cigarette in months, though. (I never call them "analogs." One is not required to... <g>) Of the ones I smoke, I truly enjoy the two, usually one right after the other, early in the morning. The...

    Can't find an all day vape

    Irwink: I think Irwink's right--unfortunately. I too would like to strike up a longterm relationship with one flavor/strength, at least to span the time I leave for work until I come home in the evening. It would keep things simpler and provide some of the "crutchiness" my Marlboros did...

    ADDICTS, and nicotine...

    As I understand it, the medical definition of "addiction" has been messed with in recent decades to include a lot of habits not previously under its umbrella. The one element I'm aware of that used to be a prerequisite to calling something an "addiction" is tolerance--the ever-increasing need...

    hi from madtown! any vapers in madison?

    Welcome electrowoman! I'm not currently from Madison, but spent more than a decade there in the '70s-'80s (going to school, more school, more school, then working). Loved it in many ways, but extrapolating from how things were there then, I suspect it has become a very good place to not be a...

    convert 510 to ego?

    I went on the cheaper cheap and just bought batteries, cone and a charger adapter for my 510 wall charger. I understand it's slower than the USB charger, but I have yet to run out of juice in one before the other is charged.

    TV Tobacco + ???

    My little vial of Flavourart Latakia came in a few days ago, so yesterday I thought I'd experiment--very conservatively, and I needed to mix up some more TV Tobacco and doubler anyway. So I made up 8ML and added just two drops of Latakia. Ideally, I guess I'd be waiting some days to let the...

    Do people own stock...

    I think it's kind of like the old (probably no longer true) saying that "nobody ever lost their job recommending that their company buy IBM hardware." The eGo gets the new vaper past THE two most serious starting pitfalls: equipment that costs too much and equipment that doesn't work. I don't...
