    New vaper here.

    Welcome to ECF. Good for you on your decision to quit smoking. Vaping does work. I smoked 2 packs a day for 46 years and was able to quit by vaping. Nothing else worked for me. It does take a little determination on your part too, but I was amazed at how easy it was for me to make the...

    New, and loving it already!!!

    Hi. Welcome to ECF. So glad you are going to give vaping another try. So sorry to hear about your daughter's car accident. I hope she is ok. I found out that we have an Australia Forum. Here is the link. You should be able to talk to people near you and find out how they get the products...

    This is a very unlikely thing to happen to someone who is using a cigalike or ego style battery and a clearo. This situation is more regarding advanced batteries and gear being used improperly, not beginner level gear, although there are safe operating measures and information every vaper needs...

    Is it just me...

    Hi. Here is an old thread that talks about Vaper's Tongue. http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/general-vaping-discussion/524221-dreaded-vaper-s-tongue-dealing-olfactory-fatigue.html Drink LOTS of water and you can try vaping unflavored nic juice for a day or two and that will help reset...

    Hi and welcome to ECF. Great to have you with us. There is a lot to learn if you are going to start your vaping career with the type of gear you have. To be safe and keep those around you safe you need to understand how your gear works, how to maintain it, and how to use it. You may want to...

    Why why why

    Hi all. Glad I read this thread. I smoked for 46 years and stopped smoking by vaping. Never had any understanding why someone who never smoked would choose to start vaping. This thread has opened my mind up to a lot of different viewpoints and stories. Thank you all for posting.

    Smok, each tank will have its own little personality but on the whole, you do not want to let your tank run dry. It will burn the wick and with replaceable heads, once you burn one, you have to put a new one in. Some you can rebuild yourself to save money, some you can not. So it can get...

    One of zillion things I have read about the istick is something a couple of people have said about the 510 connection. I know a couple of people that have the first istick to come out and one of them mentioned that they are keeping a 510 connector on it to help preserve the threading on the...

    The Provarinati Saloon IV - Back Alley

    Please do let me know how that kfl center pin works for you. I have 5 of the r91 and the one that gives me problems is the v2 that I put a VaporDNA r91v1 center pin into to replace that floating pin. I would love to fix that r91 once and for good. All it has been is fiddly for me. The others...

    Still smoking support and chat thread

    I agree with you, those hospital socks are pretty nice. I have a pair from last surgery and do wear them sometimes. I am thinking slippers that I can slip into and out of without help. I am partial to Dearfoams. Plus, having something to worry about besides surgery is good for me. The 'what...

    The Provarinati Saloon IV - Back Alley

    I hear you there. I have only a handful of juices from one vendor that I vape on a daily, adv type of vaping. I am not interested in even trying new vendors at this point. I have found enough variety that I know I can vape so I am staying put for now. I am going to try DIY in the next...

    Ahlusion E-Juice Part 3

    Some of the reading I have done on DiY juices and high vg tends to suggest that either they take longer to steep or some people use a higher % of flavoring. I would suggest you ask Ahlusion. I do not vape high vg so I have no personal experience with their steep needs.

    Hi Top. Sorry to hear about your phone adventures. Hope you find a solution that does not send you to the poorhouse. No real tips on the nano coil. All I remember reading about them is you wrap your cotton around and over the coil. I think there is an old thread about nano coils out there...

    BRAND New Vaper

    Those are great vendors with great prices. I do want to let new vapers know that different vendors will use different nicotine bases and different brands of flavoring. That means that strawberry or blueberry muffin or RY4 tobacco will probably taste different from every individual vendor...

    The Provarinati Saloon IV - Back Alley

    I could not agree with you more. I have a cardiologist that is all for my using my Provari. He even checked it out and had me explain to him how it works. He recommends ecigs to his patients. I have had one GP doc and office recoil in horror when I told them I stopped smoking using an ecig...

    Sure is fine by me. I am just a PM away. Oh, and here is another fun thread that will give you all a decent idea of what top 5 vendors where people were buying juice from online a while back. http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/general-e-liquid-discussion/304212-top-5-vendors-e-liquid.html

    The Provarinati Saloon IV - Back Alley

    I have found a few vendors where I do not like the nic base they use. The MBV and HDV stuff tends to taste peppery or chemical like to me. Cheesecakes taste like chemicals to me no matter how long I steep them, and I love cheesecake in real life. I have found that if I do not like several...

    How sweet of you to say that bryonir. Thank you. I am not a techie person but I try my best to explain things as clearly as I can. I want people to be successful in their vaping. It can be quite an enjoyable experience or quite frustrating. Remember, backups for your backups!
