    Need some help and some advice

    There are just soooo many variables that could come into play here, but it almost sounds that by not vaping you are doing much better. I have been vaping and not had a cigarette in over a year now but I know for a fact that if I used 24mg strength e-juice right now I would probably hack up a...

    It was one year ago today...

    ... at 11:30 a.m. I heard the mailman come up the street and I lit a cigarette. I went out and greeted him as he waved my package out the window of his mail truck, he knew what I was expecting. I took it from him and told him that this just might be the last cigarette I wll ever smoke. He gave...

    5+ Months of 510 atty cleaning...

    It just so happens that the kind I have and use is the "Triple Mint" and even though I give them a very thorough rinse I still taste the mint a little in the first few vapes then it goes away.

    Jumbo Push Pop turned Eicig How to with 18650.

    As always Connman, a very well thought-out and very well made mod that will last a long time and provide outstanding performance. Great Job! :thumbs:

    Non Smoker Class?

    Like your avatar, the "Mod Monkey" has jumped on your back and you'll be making your own before you know it. It happened to me and I still love to tinker with new mods. Congrats on your initial success! :thumb:

    One year down

    One year is a HUGE accomplishment and you should be proud of it! Like youreself, I only tried my first e-cig on a suggestion from a good friend who said he quit instantly after 30 years of smoking with one. I believed what he told me and ditto, I quit instantly with mine, now 9 months today...

    Yea glycerine

    I agree. When I first started vaping I also found that I had a sensitivity to the PG, which many do. Sore, irritated throat with a unusually harsh throat hit and I then learned about VG here on the forums. I bought my first VG at WalMart (HUMCO brand) and also found some at an A.C. Moore arts...

    Base order now prohibits e-cigs

    I'm glad that I'm retired military and don't have to deal with such childish non-sense. I remember back in '91 during the first Gulf War, Philip Morris donated some 15,000 cartons of cigarettes to send to our troops in Iraq. Anti-smokers got wind of it and got a court order stopping the...

    Waiting for the other shoe to drop

    No other shoe, no curtain to fall, no tricks, gimmics or gags. The e-cig is the future and the the future is here. I also never would have thought or expected that quitting smoking would be this easy and more importantly, that I would enjoy vaping more than I ever did smoking. I've been...

    Smoking was supposed to kill me

    A HUGE Congratulations to you and your success. That was one great story and so very similar to my own. 36+ years of 2 packs a day and I quit instantly when I took my first vape, and I remember sitting back in my chair with a BIG smile on my face amazed at just how much I liked my first e-cig...

    I could kick myself

    As already posted, don't beat yourself up about it, it happens quite often. For most, e-cigs are not an instant cure and there is a big learning curve. Besides the nicotine, there are many other chemicals in cigarettes that your body has become addicted too (mildly) that e-cigs do not have...

    A little confused with Regulators and resistors

    Madshock follow the below link and you'll find an explanation about resistance and two really handy calculators to tell you how to use resistors in parallel and in series. Go Here :thumb:

    A little confused with Regulators and resistors

    As far as the LED and resistor are concerned, you can go to this page and by putting the correct numbers in the boxes it will calculate which size resistor you should use. So many times I read about using 470 ohm resistors which is not near what you should use for the basic 3mm and 5mm LED's we...

    Told I had not really quit

    It probably won't be the last time you'll hear those types of comments. I've heard that one more than a few times and from some surprising sources who I thought would be happy for me and support me, but instead decided to chastise me instead. And the interesting part is that the only ones who...
