    Is extract ok for vaping?

    I got some high-nicotine banana juice, split it between two bottles and filled them up with vegetable glycerine and banana extract from the grocery store. I got a little heavy-handed with the banana, so the result tastes better than the original. Is there any known or suspected problem with...

    Yippppeeeee!!!!!

    My Joy 510 manual arrived today. :D I thought it would take several days longer. Thanks, Jason. (I'm the one with the color change. No biggie.)

    What do you use for a carying case for your E-CIG??

    In my pocketbook I have an outside pocket for pens and stuff. That works for me.

    A heads up about CVS humco glycerin

    I found "NOW" vegetable glycerine at the local vitamin store. Four ounces for $5, or a big bottle for $10 (maybe twelve ounces?) I imagine a health food store would have the same.

    So who misses smoking?

    Ranting is good. Keep it up. I do it all the time at my other favorite site and it helps a lot.

    So who misses smoking?

    That sucks. Do you know how long this is going to last? Is there any way you can put limits on it? With regular cigarettes, I always limited it to the attic (which is my little office) and outside. I imagine that your old man is able enough -- could you ask him to step outside or limit it to...

    So who misses smoking?

    No, it is not really working yet. I'm still smoking part of the time. Before, a pack lasted less than a day. (Maybe 25 cigs a day?) Now it lasts about two-and-a-half days. (So I'm using about eight a day.) I rarely see anyone who smokes. I received my SmokeStik in early June, and it's...

    ElectroNicStix -- has anyone dealt with these guys?

    Thanks, all. I see the other forum now. (When all else fails, read the instructions.)

    Who or what convinced you to try ecigs ?

    Hi. You're the first one I've seen around here mention the "SmokeStik." It's the only brand I've tried and I'm not overly impressed. I was smoking a little more than a pack a day. Now a pack lasts about two-and-a-half days. The SmokeStik is so wimpy and unreliable that sometimes I want to...

    Heaven Gifts DK-Tab flavour

    Pepper? Would that work? I have a bottle of juice that I'll probably never use because it has no throat hit. Is there some simple secret that would fix it? How much pepper or whatever per ml?

    Up or down? Does it matter?

    Thanks. I found out how easy it is to get a mouthful of juice... I also discovered that I can use a nail (couldn't find a skinny screwdriver) to rip off the extra little piece of plastic at the bottom of the cartridge. There's an extra wall of plastic in there, I still haven't figured out...

    Up or down? Does it matter?

    I've been keeping my SmokeStiks in the pencil cup, battery end up. It just seemed right to me and I didn't think about it too hard. Does it matter? Does it want to be upside down or on its side?

    Ok, NOW what's wrong?

    But it knew my name. And it let me post here. They could ask. :p I didn't need that with my first post in that thread. I have since applied, but I don't know how long that takes.

    Ok, NOW what's wrong?

    Arrrrggghhhh!!! I tried to add a new post to "Retail suppliers in New Jersey" e-cigarette-forum.com (slash) forum/new-jersey-central-vapers-club-looking-new-members/26598-retail-suppliers-new-jersey.html and I got the message: "Elphaba Thropp, you do not have permission to access this page..."...

    Allergy?

    And the list of qualifiers grows. Ok, so what kind/brand of juice has vegetable glycerin with more throat hit than the "marlboro" flavor and low nicotine? And where would I get it?

    Allergy?

    Thanks, all. PG, VG, PEG... I had to look it up. In the sticky thread about abbreviations, the OP says they're different. Then a poster says they're the same. But the OP didn't update. :confused: Now you say they're different. If there's a difference, how do you know what you're getting?

    What am I doing wrong?

    Thanks, everyone. Little by little, I might get this thing to work. That would kill me. That’s probably my main problem. “One way is to top off the cartridge more frequently.” I’m probably already doing that too much. “One way is to have two working units that you alternate...

    Allergy?

    I’ve never had any allergies before. I’ve been smoking for more than 35 years, about a pack a day. Don’t tell anyone, but I haven’t seen any real side effects, except for those rare occasions when go into a heavy binge -- stay up all night, not enough liquids… Then I pay for it with a...
