    The big tobacco companies

    Actually, RJ Reynolds produced a 'smokeless' cigarette around 1990, called, 'Premier'. It produced an atomized vapor with nicotine. It was nice electronic and the mist was produced by drawing on it. They spent millions on R&D. It enjoyed a minor success, but the bad taste doomed it. They...

    Highping Prodigy V2 Opinion

    Highping, I would be interested in your opinion (and anyone else's opinion) of the Prodigy V2 used w/ a 501 atty. It apparently operates at 4.5 v to 5.25 v. I saw that you like the 501 at 5 v. I've been using stock batts (mega batts) for quite some time (due to the appearance vs a large...

    Question for Geoff

    PS I don't know if the shipping cost involved would make it practical. Also, many folks would not trust 'used' juice. It could take off, but I doubt it.

    How many puffs is considered "heavy" vaping

    Well, it's highly individual, but I'll offer this. 2 ml. per day seems to be average which equals about 2 packs of cigs. I find it takes 10-12 puffs or so to equal a cig. So, 40 cigs in 2 packs would roughly equal 400 puffs a day. Since there are 20 drops in a ml., one drop roughly equals...

    government employees vaping in public restaurant.

    I too have vaped pretty much everywhere. Nobody yet has bothered me, although some have expressed curiosity. Except once, before I got silver w/ blue LED's. The white/orange LED must have looked like a real cig and a women reminded me that there was no smoking. So, I had some fun, said...

    Prodigy V2 info. please

    Puresmoker's web site says the prodigy vapes at 4.5 - 5.25 volts. I recall someone on this site saying that it had multiple voltage settings, namely, 3.7 v, 5 v, and 6v. Looks like a nice piece, but I would like to know if I can switch between 3.7 v and 5 v? It also uses (2) RCR123a...

    Where Can I Get A......? where to find vegetable glycerin

    You can buy VG much cheaper in a bakery shop. Gee, Tasty Vapor sells it for $4.00 for 4 oz., and he's an e-liquid supplier (& a good one at that).

    Non toxic E-Cig?

    Ni nic e-liquid is available everywhere. CAREFULL, the tobacco flavors (only) will contain very small amounts of nic even in zero strength (about 1 mg./ml.). This is because the flavoring comes from tobacco leaf extract. Just buy some VG (vegatable glycerin) at Walmart and cut the viscosity...

    The FDA is afraid of money loss, not health risks!

    The AMA will do nothing that isn't politically correct. They are a joke and only 15-17% of us belong these days. They represent such a small number of docs that they have no clout left. If you want anything screwed up good, let our government have control. I have a secretary who is so...

    Mint/menthol flavor thoughts

    Ya need to watch how you use the word 'ash' here. Here, 4 letter words are fine, but 3 letters are profane, like ASH, ATF, USC, FDA, BAN, CAD, GOV, etc.....with the possible exception of 'Leon', but that remains to be seen.

    Does high [36mg] juice make your heart race?

    PS 36 mg. is generally considered too strong to vape. One ml. would be equal to about 2 packs of cigarettes. 36 mg./ml. is generally sold to be cut. Mix it 50:50 with VG (or flavered VG) and you've got 18 mg./ml. Mix 2 parts 36 mg. to 1 part VG, and you've got 24 mg./ml. strength. Mix 1...

    Does high [36mg] juice make your heart race?

    I slowly cut down, and zero now satisfies me for a couple of hours in the evening, then I need to vape a bit of medium strength for a while. The portion of the habit that has to do with nicotine is very real, but a good part of the habit has nothing to do with nicotine. I enjoy chocolate...

    Can ANYONE stop the madness??

    Stop? No, it's an ongoing habit, until you stop for good. The expense certainly slows once you find what's best for you. I spent $330 a month on cigs, so there was a lot of room to play with. I quit cigs within a week and averaged $325 a month for the 1st 2 months, stocking up &...

    The History of Electronic Cigarettes

    ASH could be clearer, but I believe the largest contributor to ASH is Merke Pharmaceutical. I'm not saying that ASH is corrupted, just that they have a clear financial interest. We all know how lobby efforts and financial contributions work in politics. Personally, I think ASH should embrace...
