    SMOKTech DC Tank: Tank=Awesome, Cartos=not so much

    As for the stock SmokeTech cartos (1.7ohm), QC is really spotty. I'm getting about a 33% clunker rating on them but the good ones cook quite well on a fresh 18650. My first lasted 3 weeks of pretty heavy vaping at 3.7v. I'd recommend either buying them in bulk and living with the high number of...

    1.7 carto on 3.7 mod same as......

    Though, working in a VA with a large patient population that REALLY NEEDS to quit smoking, I find going blatantly obvious with it can stimulate interest in those wanting to quit. (gotta remember to have Hoog send me a lot more business cards with my next order....)

    1.7 carto on 3.7 mod same as......

    If you're getting the stock DC carto with the tank that I got from MadVapes, you're actually presenting a 1.6-1.7 ohm load to the battery, resulting in wattage from about 10.7-6 watts (figuring a fully charged "3.7v" battery actually delivering about 4.2v at first tapering off to about it's...

    You know your a hardcore vaper when.....

    When leaving the house for work, you agonize over the big battery mod (more vape time), the box mod (just to be different) the VV mod (because you can't refrain from tweaking the wattage) and a standard pen or cig (because it's less obstrusive) and end up taking them all just be safe (along with...

    How many other's have you encountered vaping

    At the VA in Fresno, I did have a co-worker (since moved to Reno) that vaped an 801. I've been seen with a variety of atomizers and batts, currently am sporting a Big Chuck with an LR 501. I do need to find a better carrying solution, toting it around in scrubs feels like I'm carrying a small...

    What flavor are you vaping right now, and is it any good?

    I'm vaping a self-mixed Turkish. About 25% Dekang, various and sundry drops of Perfumer's Apprentice Tobacco Blend (from Scubabatdan's prescribed recipe) and a custom mix of 0mg VG and 100mg VG (mixes down to about 33mg at the end). All through an Indulgence running at 7.4v. Just enough burn to...

    Question about being thrown out of a coffee shop

    Given that the owner of the store apologized, you might follow it up with him/her, a well-cut suit can imply quite a bit of money and influence. The owner being aware of what e-cigs are, you might try a short presentation of the potential benefits of e-cigs (niche market, potential for future...

    the site for all your vapor needs?

    My first was Litecigusa.com. Excellent service and a good selection of juices and parts. Madvapes for just about any odd part for "do-it-yourself" mods. Eastmall and Greenhouse One for mass purchases, both have been quite quick on turnaround times from China to California.

    Must...stop....ordering...sample...juice...flavors

    A few good reasons to continue buying samplers - 1 - In times of economic uncertainty, you are doing your part to stimulate the economy! 2 - This is a new industry, peopled by mostly honest folks that are really trying to produce new and interesting flavors, including kung pao chicken (yes...

    After having lurked for more than a year, I'm FINALLY getting active. And after about 15-16 months of "tomorrow, I'll quit", I'm looking at the last 6 analogs I ever want to see. A recent $200+ via-China purchase has gotten me to the "just do it" point. That and the 2.5 heart attacks through the...

    New e-smoker! Needing a little assistance!

    Given the choice of buying blind versus driving an hour to actually "touch and feel", I say go for the drive. MadVapes is quickly becoming the premier American supplier as far as variety goes. They might not carry some of the more exotic (and pricy) parts, but they make up for it in sheer...
