    confused and dont want to waste any more money

    The other thing to consider, even at this early stage, is jettisoning cartridges altogether and instead dripping directly on the atomizer. (Search the forum on "dripping" or "direct dripping.") In my first few months of vaping, I struggled with the difficulties of keeping the cartridge...

    ignorant analog smoker!

    There's something about one's smoking that I think is way too individual and personal for others--even best friends and loved ones who themselves are/were smokers--to understand well enough to offer guaranteed useful advice. Different people get different things, physically and emotionally, out...

    Site Upgrade - The Aftermath

    Small matter, but I'm assuming somebody wants to know of every hiccup. Some threads on the New (or "Today's" from some pages) Posts listing that show and actually have replies are listed as having been viewed 0 times. I didn't notice any pattern as to which threads showed up this way.

    wow i have a problem

    I still use my 510 batteries for whatever flavor #2 I'm carrying around on a given day. Makes it really easy to tell which is which.

    Can someone help me with cig. taste e-liquid?

    I've tried quite a few, and I've also read what others have to say--that, to them, this or that tastes just like a cigarette. So far, I can't say as I've found anything that does (much less, anything that tastes like any of the several cigarette brands I've enjoyed over the decades). But I...

    Low-battery Vaping Consequences?

    My main hardware these days is my eGo, along with a 510 for whatever alternate flavor I'm vaping throughout the day (makes it easy to tell which is which). But my morning chain-vape is with my Joye 510 pass-through for a couple hours everyday. I just noticed how flawlessly (knock wood) the atty...

    Dripping VS Cart Filling and Quitting Analogs?

    Dripping. Haven't filled a cart since March or so. Seriously, I can easily see myself having lost patience with e-cigs if I had continued to fuss much longer with carts. When driving, I just resign myself to maybe having to go without a few minutes if conditions don't permit refilling. It's...

    top 3 USA juice suppliers?

    I can't help but wonder, though-- who here has bought from the most different U.S. vendors? I'd be most inclined to be influenced by the top 3 of somebody who has tried five or more different ones.

    What TV flavor are you vaping right now?

    New mix (my first custom): Blueberry with tobacco & vanilla. I intended to open it up and let it steep (still will), but I liked it enough already for several driploads!

    Maximum throat hit

    I haven't played with higher voltage. Nicotine content provides that scratchy sensation that to me plays the biggest part. Other ingredients can also contribute. Cinnamon (as in Atomic Cynacide, mentioned above) works. I've also found ginger is a good TH ingredient--Tasty Vapors' Gingerbread...

    TV Tobacco + ???

    I'm really grateful for this advice as my instinct might have been to go much heavier than necessary, and what I think I'd like is just a slight hint of Latakia. For me, maybe one drop to 5ml would do what I want.

    Seafood flavored e-liquid? Seriously???

    Best line: "I should have ordered it in not quite as strong a nicotine level." :laugh: Thanks for taking one for the team!

    Do you leave your chargers plugged in all day

    I've kept a stock 510 wall charger plugged into my car lighter socket (via a 12-volt -> mini plug wire) constantly for six or so months, nearly always with a battery in it. No problem. Likewise my multi-charger, always plugged in at home. Maclean, I haven't been at it long enough to know...

    TV Tobacco + ???

    You mean like less than a drop per ml?

    Chit Chattin away!

    BTW (he said, conversation-bendingly...), has anybody here seen lately (or at least remember) a wall-cleaning product that's sort of a green putty that you rub on the wall, periodically kneading the glob to expose a clean surface? Consistency kind of like Play Dough. I recall it working quite...

    Newbie seeking that 'sticky' analog aftertaste...

    Welcome, Bobo! This could have been a posting of my own from a few months ago. In fact, it just about is. You may well hear from a few who consider the relative "cleanness" that way a virtue of vaping, but I feel your pain. (It may be part of why I still smoke just a few every day.) Best you...

    Chit Chattin away!

    I need something in between the Tasty Vapor style cap (goes down half an inch into the bottle and really hard to remove) and what I've got (just glance at it and it comes off). No, actually I've just got to learn to be more careful!

    Chit Chattin away!

    OK--please tell me I'm not the only one who ever did this! Up early this morning, half bleary, and quickly discovered I was going to have to mix up some of my favorite morning vape right away. Painstakingly removed the taut caps from my TV bottles of juice and doubler, and measured out 7.5ml...
