    Can't... Stop... Spending!

    He's really a great guy. He's also a chef, and the fastest way to my heart is through my stomach. He won me over via dinner's at his place. He literally held a dinner party once a week for various co-workers of ours (we met at work in a restaurant) just to get me to his place and win me over...

    My response to a possible ban

    The OP isn't in the USA. The OP is in Isreal. I'm not sure how it all works over there, but if money is as important there as it is here in the USA, then the Isreali government is likely threatening the worst (ban) to make taxation look like a compromise. Kind of what I think the USA is...

    Nagging Spouse Rant

    I'm sorry OP. Luckily, mine also smoked, and he switched to vaping around a week after I did. Although he understands that simply quitting is almost impossible for me because it's also almost impossible for him, he doesn't quite understand the hobby aspect. He vapes to get his nic fix. His...

    Where do I start?

    Check out 101vapes for an express kit for around $25. Then get a glass mini clearo. Some liquids react with plastic, causing it to crack or affect the state of the juice. Glass means no worries there. The mini Protank 2, 3, mini aero tank or aspire ET-S would all look great on the vvv3. The mini...

    How many vapes do you own?

    It's become a hobby for me, and I've purchased a great deal since I started in November. I currently only have three in use right now though, as I like to pass on my older devices to my sister or other smoking family members as I move on to encourage them to stick to vaping. My husband actually...

    Where do I start?

    I quit smoking with a $14.95, ego style, variable volt, 650 mah, passthrough, ego kit that came with a bottom coil. Now, to explain what that is: Ego battery - This is a device that houses the power source needed to heat resistance wire in your toppers to creat vapor. Ego's are typically the...

    As for the other addicting substances found in ecigs, there was some slight withdrawal for me. I didn't need to use anything else, but some turn to snuff and others turn to whole tobacco alkaloid juice. If you feel you can't get past cravings at 24 mg nic levels, try looking into those options...

    Variable voltage helped me a great deal. I cranked up the power to vape my way through cravings. I smoked a pack and a half a day, and managed to quit with 18 mg juice. YMMV. The better the set up, the easier to keep nic level down if that's a concern. Dripping will enable to use the lowest nic...

    EMERGENCY!! My vapes taste like nothing!!!!!!!!

    Could be. I found that switching things up keep the vapors tongue at bay. Different tank, different flavor profile and plenty of water.

    new mvp2

    Air flow plays a very important role. As important as ohms and volts. For many clearos,the airflow isn't there for higher voltages. Just move up a setting at a time and stop at where you feel it tastes best. If you aren't satisfied, and it gives you a burnt taste before you are, then pick up a...

    new mvp2

    For clearos, I found that they could use a good cleaning at each tank fill. Especially for darker, sweeter, juices. For a clear, thin juice, I've gotten away with longer before flavor dropped off. I wound up moving to cartotanks for less maintenance time. They take a bit longer to prime the...

    Can't... Stop... Spending!

    Of course, I'm counting the smoking budget of two people while mostly buying for *gulp* myself. In my defense however, hubby is a vape gear thieving spouse who hates to admit he enjoys a quality vape and would rather just take what he wants then request anything or even consent to any offer I...

    Can't... Stop... Spending!

    This bit of math make me feel better: $14 per pack in NYC Pack and a half each for hubby and myself equals 3 packs a day purchased $14 x 3 = $42 per day $42 x 7 = $294 per week That's $588 per pay period for the former smoking budget. I've had pay periods where I matched it, but I'm still mostly...

    Can't... Stop... Spending!

    Come back when you have a $200 item in more then one cart at a time. OMG... I bought two Provari's within 48 hours one pay day. And those weren't the only purchases that week. In fact, for the last month or so I've been getting at least one package a day. It's bad. Really bad...

    Kayfun vent!!!!!

    I've been using Muji as well. I order it straight from their site. Came to 7.50 with shipping, and the shipping was faster then many US vendors. I'm really starting to think USPS is just garbage. Anything I get via DHL and Fedex overseas comes faster save for Fasttech and Focalecig.

    Kafun and Russian troubles. I have five authentics, and they all

    Please post the results. I, curious. Haven't encountered any issues like this in my clones, save for one Tobeco Kayfun Lite clone that I wound up giving away in frustration. I replaced the block, the insulator, the center pin, everything.... Never figured it out and chalked it up to being a flaw...

    The Erlkönigin : PICTORIAL

    The Erlkonigin actually doesn't look all that bad with the original 21mm copolymer tank without any ring at all on the Provari. The tapered endcap of the Provari almost makes it look like it flows to 21mm, although I think the end actually tapers to 19 mm? I still have that odd sized 22.8mm...

    Think I found the right vape...thought?

    Is it the box shape of the MVP, or the screen with the additional two buttons on both the VVv3 and the MVP 2?

    Mechanical mods

    Oh, and if you get a mech mod, make sure to get an ohm meter and a volt meter, or a multimeter to check for remaining battery life and resistance of your coils. Also, get some good batteries. Don't bother using the ones that come in the Kamry or Smok kits. Get some Sony VTC 4s, 5s, purple...

    Mechanical mods

    I'd go with a mid priced variable voltage/variable wattage set for the next step, along with a Kayfun style, single bottom coil RBA. Teh MVP 2 and the Ehpro Kayfun Lite will run you about $70 - $80. This way, you can learn about resistance, voltage, wattage, amps and how it all works together...
