    Shipments being seized

    The FDA is fda'ing you raw with their 13 inch pole of power. This is the problem when a regulatory/enforcement agency has the power to dictate what "rules" they want to enforce.

    Shipments being seized

    Haha. Please, as if everyone doesn't know. It's not like there's anything "secret" about mainstream shipping methods. Gimme a break. "Last week I flew an e-cig shipment in on a private water-plane from Columbia to Florida... They were packed inside stuffed pandas which were crated up with...

    Cold and Vaping

    Blech! Colds! It might be the H1N1 Swine Flu. Seriously. I was quarantined in China for a week because of some people on our flight that had it (the flight from the US - damn San Franciscans). It's actually more like a bad cold than it is the flu - I think I had it a couple months ago...

    e-cigs vs. Nicotrol Inhaler Stats

    Nice. Therein lies the "real" problem with most laws today. Written by people out of touch, approved by people who convince each other they're right, enforced by people who take them too literally. Very nice example seminolewind!

    A vaping fool is born - and more stupid questions

    I take it easy like I'm smoking an analog. 15-30 seconds or so - maybe longer. I also feel the outside. When the atty feels warmer than I like, I wait a little longer. Probably ok. Unlike NiCad batteries of old, Lithium Ion batts don't have memory problems. Dark, cool place. To fridge or not...

    Doing some more searching (which I should have done i the first place) tells me the tight atty fit with V2 is pretty common. So, guess I'll just live with it and get a mini pair of pliers to put in the little JS belt case. ;)

    Thanks for the tips Christena! I'm glad to know it isn't just my JS! I really like this little guy. It's a nice PV. I'm using Janty's Polar Ice (Mint) juice with it right now - I'm so/so on it. I want to try some of Janty's other juices (like Boost maybe).

    The other great thing I'm finding about the JantyStick over my 510 (I just got a JS as well) is longevity! Both in the battery and the cart. This little guy just keeps giving and giving! :) It's quickly becoming my fave for a quick puff or a longer after dinner "smoke."

    I just got a JantyStick V2. :thumb: At first I was getting pretty ...... about it. It took me a long time to get the atty seated correctly - I actually thought the stick was broken. Sliding the atty into the chamber revealed it was very tight. I finally got it got it touching the battery...

    e-cig with caffeine

    Man I was really interested in this stuff until I saw the fine print: Not intended for use as a substitute for sleep. Seriously!? Well forget it then. I was hoping this was a substitute for sleep. Oh well, I'll have to keep looking I guess...

    e-cigs vs. Nicotrol Inhaler Stats

    Coal Tar Extract!? :( That crap's in my dandruff shampoo (I was amazed at that fact when I read it on the back of the bottle years ago) and it smells pretty nasty! Uggh. Well, at least they tested those Nicotrol inhalers for carcinogens... What!?!? Oh, no! Well, thankfully they tested...

    WHY am I NOT using my e-cigarettes!!!!

    :lol: That's an understatement! I find that flavor and nicotine level has alot to do with throat hit for me. What PV you use also makes a difference. My M402 (IntelliCig) hits pretty hard with most juices but my 8084 (84mm) mini is much, much smoother. I also usually stick to low nicotine...

    Whats your favorite gangster movie?? :D

    Those are great pictures. Goes to show the "coppers" we're pretty bad shooters - bullets all over that thing!

    Time to draw the line - but who is on OUR side?

    That seems to be an eternal truth. Certainly the FDA realized this with their report.

    Chinese Suppliers Response to FDA's Finding

    Blu has foil on their carts too and claim they're made in Holland (I asked them via email a month or so back).

    Shirt : "FDA proves E-cig's at least 1000 times safer than traditional cigs, about as safe as the patch"

    :lol: bwahaha. Well put. I think people have this image in their minds of some old, hunched over Chinese guy stirring a boiling kettle with an iron bar and pouring it into glass bottles - ready to ship to the US. Most of this stuff (including 90% of e-liquid - all from Dekang) is made in...

    Why is the FDA doing this?

    Sorry. I don't think big tobacco is interested honestly. They've had their beat down. It's big pharma. And the reason is that big pharma and big oil sleep together - alot! Big oil is the power right now with big pharma right behind them. It's big pharma that wants to capitalize off the social...
