    Need to Vent.....Is there anyone with free S&H???

    Ever heard the expression "There's no free lunch"? I have an e-store (not e cig related) and I ship "free" just to keep it simple. When I do my cost analysis, the true cost of shipping is added to the price. I can appreciate wanting to buy this and that from several different stores. I just...

    Apollo changed formula, now i'm really mad.

    The thread on the Extreme is dse 901. A lot of suppliers can provide adapters to fit other juice holders. I buy 510 cartomizers and tanks and my wife uses a 901 to 510 adapter on her Extreme batteries. I only used one box of prefilled cartos after learning here that you can buy them blank or...

    Thanks caff. You got me thinking and I found that the buttons are almost flush with the top. I think they collapsed into the batts. I posted this on the thread you linked.

    Ovale V8 VV discussion!

    The CCV batts are actually a bit shorther than some blue Ultrfires I bought from MV. Pretty sure I found the reason they don't perform (They won't work in my Gripper, either). The buttons on the CCV batts are practically flush with the top. The + contact in the V8 is recessed in the (really...

    I suspect this was an oversight. I have and e-store and I can tell you it's easy to do. I certainly don't think Eric would consciously deceive anyone. I bought it with the intention of getting the 18650 tube when I can afford the batteries. Speaking of batteries. I bought two of these...

    "It's Howdy Doodee Time" Is that too far back for 'ya? How 'bout "That fateful night the car was stalled, Upon the railroad tracks, I pulled you out and we were saved, But you went running baaaacckkkk." Oh, that's right, this is for vaping. I'm wondering if I missed something. One can purchase...

    NGIB...Owning a Provari...$150. Sharing your own experience about keeping it simple...Priceless. I think if I asked about enlarged prostate some of those simpletons would insist my problem is lack of VV and higher resistance devices. Please don't let 'em run you off. You are needed as a...

    I've been taking Welbutrin for over 5 yrs for depression related to post combat PTSD. I was quite surprised when after taking it for 2-3 months, I went from 2 ppd to 1 ppd without even thinking about it. In the past year that has been climbing back up along with my blood pressure. Vaping is a...

    Please recommend a good cartomizer

    I'm running 1200 mah 18350 batteries in a Gripper and I've been using the jumbo Resurrectors. Nice heay vapor and he sends a hard drip tip so you don't have to deal with the rubber tips. I've also been using CE3 - 5 Pack which are rated 2.4-2.6 ohms and I believe they vape a bit cooler and the...

    Yeah, I'd rather waste a little juice than burn a carto. I initially use a syringe and needle and fill them until juice builds over the top of the filler. I then shake them like a thermometer over a trashcan and blow thru 'em into a tissue. Then I let them sit for 5-10 minutes and try to drip...

    Good Morning Friends. OnnaB, I have two Grippers and they use 18350 batteries. Gripper Be sure to read the "Gripper Tips" below the description. Protected batteries are longer than flat tops and make it hard to close the cap. Putting them in backwards works and makes it a lot easier. I...

    Doc, I've tried 5 or 6 menthols and just as many tobacco juices trying to find something I like. What I'm happy with now is a homebrew, the supplies for which I got following advise from folks in this thread. I like having the control and I really like the savings. My menthol recipe (notice no...

The good news: she's 5 days without an analog so we are sharing the miracle. Should receive her surprise eGo batteries and charger in the mail today and I'm...

    Bunch of kids running around in here. I'm 65 and have the mind of a 90 y/o wino :confused: NGIB, man I love ya but you gotta quit buying new toys. I can't afford it. Actually, I was looking at the XL3 because I too have a stash of 18350 batts. I decided to wait until one of my Grippers goes...

    OK, I just rec'd, loaded and vaped my first CE3 and I love it. I still like the jumbo Resurrectors but I think the taste is a bit "cleaner" and the vape is slightly cooler with the CE3. I also like being able to see how much juice is left. The mouth piece that comes with them is kinda girly so I...

    I just had the same experience....fired up a tank (carto) that has had "chocolate" juice sitting in it for 2+ weeks. It was no where near a chocolate flavor but has mellowed a lot. The after taste is very pleasant and really nice with coffee. CigFreed, I found this brief explanation of...

    Good Morning Good People. Just when I think I'm set, along comes the urge to try the CE3's and then here comes a $7 tank. Also, their ego batts and charger will make a nice surprise for LOML. We went out to dinner and shopping last evening and she left her analogs at home for the first time...
