    Good day to all! Hope everyone is well. Well, I took the plunge. My Kayfuns came in today, and after washing and drying them, put in my very first coil (1.3 ohm Kanthal). This things works great!! P.S. Josh, you're absolutely right--this forum is the greatest :thumbs:

    Good day to all! Andria and Vape Suzette, I understand what you're talking about when it comes to asthma. I have 2 inhalers (Ventolin and Symbicort) that I use, usually when I get a cold. Haven't needed to use them in a while, thank goodness, but they are here for when I do. I've updated my...

    It makes perfect sense, FQ. I feel just as you do on this, and I join you in giving a hug (((Shari)))

    Andria, I find replacement coils rather affordable where I shop. I don't feel extorted at all. The Stardust clearos are the kit I have that works. I'm looking for single-coil tanks to add to my kit, as I vape like I smoke--mouth-to-lung. Any recommendations?

    I guess I am, Lox. Above-ohm coils, under 20 w power, stronger e juice (because I'm still trying to quit smoking), mouth-to-lung hitter (tried a couple of straight lung hits with what I presently have, and it nearly took my breath away). Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

    Good evening, all. Hope everyone had a good weekend. Just a small update. I'm making headway to being smoke-free. I bought a pack of 25 on Saturday afternoon. Today (Monday), I still have 2 left in the pack. I'm beginning to understand my MVP 20w a little bit better, and how user-friendly...

    WTA in Canada

    As far as I know, there are no Canadian suppliers of WTA juice. I know of one WTA supplier that ships to Canada, though: WholeCig I've personally dealt with this company in the past, and will do so again once I get the funds to do so. Hope this helps.

    I found out early in my vaping experience that I was super-sensitive to PG--I can't vape any more than 20%. Right now I'm vaping 0 nic peach, max VG, until I can figure out what nic strength I need. The dual coil tanks are fouling me up some. Also, I started playing with the wattage, going...

    I've been DIY'ing for a while now, because it's hard to find good juice that's 100%VG, or even maxVG. I have to relearn what nic strength I can handle, however, because I'm not used to this MVP 20w.

    I'm sorry to hear about your dad. A cancer diagnosis at any age can be frightening as hell, not just for one one who has received that news, but to all those near and dear. As a cancer survivor myself, I understand how frightening that can be. As Andria has said, smoking won't help you feel...

    Thanks, Thaya! I have to remember to take it one day at a time, and not be too hard on myself when I do light up. I beat myself up a lot the first time around, and I got discouraged.

    I know I can't take part in the swaps, but it looks like a great thread for those wanting to try new juice flavours. Juice is one thing I don't have to worry about at the moment. I spent a while today checking out my stock, and reducing the nic in all of it from 18 mg to 12 mg. The iClears and...

    Thanks to all for your help and support :-) The iClear 30's read in at 1.6 ohms, and they are dual coil. The Vivi's have both 1.6 ohm and 1.8 ohm coils, and they're also dual. Everything that I've found out about voltage has been for single coils. Can these charts be used for duals?

    Good day to all! It's been a long time since I posted here, but life got in the way, and I fell off the wagon (I'm back to 20 cigs a day). Congrats to all who have been able to stay off the cigs, and a warm welcome to all who are new and/or still struggling. I'm ready to give vaping another...

    Lori, I wish you peace to bring comfort, courage to face the days ahead and loving memories to forever hold in your hearts. Vicki, terribly sorry to hear about your kitty. Shari, thanks for the PM. Sent my card out today. I hope it gets to you by the time you wish to send your parcel out.

    Excellent banner! Personally, I think it's perfect just as it is. As far as linking it to direct someone here, though, you may have to talk with one of the ECF mods to see if it can be done. Edit: Darn! I have the link to the img, but I can't see it.

    I feel your pain, Top. Here in small-town Ontario, the temp, with wind chill is -15 degrees Fahrenheit. Tonight, the temp, with wind chill, will be about -21 degrees Fahrenheit. Trying to stay warm is a real challenge these days.
