    Praline & Cream and atomizers

    I've only had two attys die. I know its inevitable, but both went with Lorann's praline & cream in the carts. I used 20% in a 50/50 PG/VG mix, which is essentially the same proportions I use for other flavors. But it makes the darkest liquid of all my recipes, and looks thicker in the bottle...

    Merged old sticky threads (3)

    Arv, I bet you'd make a great diplomat. As for me, I've got 64 attys (I think that counts as plenty), but no 510/Dura. There's so much good said about them... when the adapter comes out I will definitely try them out. The only problem will be that I like it, since that means I'll have to buy...

    I don't expect to need it, but it can't hurt to have it. Having helpful documentation has already saved my .... going through security with something else. Ya never know.

    Travel and Vaping American Airlines

    I wrote to American Airlines requesting an explanation of their ban on using e-cigs during flights. Here is their response: "Thank you for your comments about electronic cigarettes. While we do permit passengers to carry electronic cigarettes aboard, their activation is prohibited...

    NOW is your chance to comment on Florida TV channel

    I'm in, and don't care if it's old or Tampa. Anything positive out there to be seen is a plus.

    Retaining water, sneezing - PG?

    The bottom number is the diastolic. It measures blood pressure in between heart beats (when your heart is at rest). If it goes below 60 the blood won't oxygenate cells properly. Lightheadedness is more likely with hypertension. Nicotine tends to raise both diastolic and systolic pressure, as...

    what do you do when you get new components?

    I've seen it, and other articles agree. Between that info, and the fact that Li-on bats have a defined shelf life, I think my method of rotating bats and storing in the fridge between uses may be the best way to go. They're also not supposed to have a memory. So what always puzzles me is that...

    what do you do when you get new components?

    I test, drain and store my attys, but I'm not sure long term storage is the best way to handle bats. Li-on batteries have finite shelf lives, and capacity decreases over time. So while I store my attys, I keep batteries cool, and rotate them. I'd love to hear from others about battery storage.

    Amazing service!

    Jerry, I'm impressed. And I don't need to check your feedback - here's mine: 5 stars! Stuff happens and there was a bit of a goof with my shipment. It's what happens next is that's important. Even though I caught you on the road you managed to get a package on its way to me within hours (on...

    Accord?

    First test market was in the south, in Richmond... if you were at the arena its a good bet it was the Accord. And yes, PM was advertising the reduction of second hand smoke. RJR came out with the Eclipse a couple of years earlier. Vermont's attorney general sued them for claiming health...

    Accord?

    No question about it! But their newer version, the Heatbar, was testmarketed in 2006 - more recently that Hon Lik's e-cig that we all know so well. When I look at it in its charger I can't help thinking it looks a bit like an electric toothbrush. Heatbar photo

    Accord?

    It's not, and they did release it for test marketing back in '98. A few years ago they came up with a newer version that was tested in Europe. It didn't sell... our e-cigs are better devices.

    After being harrased by the cops

    Somehow many generations managed to survive childhood without the multitude of laws and contraptions our illustrious government has come up with in recent years to protect us. As CSN said, "Teach your children well". Our parents protected us, and taught us to protect ourselves. With all the...

    Has anyone tried Nuvape's liquid?

    Nope, it's not just you - the website sucks, and they don't send an order confirmation. I placed an order (might be my first and last), and then sent them an email with some comments about its shortcoming. I also have concerns about their non-PG formulation. My post about it is here.

    Loranns Bavarian Cream- So gross i wanted to rip my own throat out

    I also got the Bavarian Cream for mixing. Just tried it in a 6mg mix. Most of the posts I've seen say that the blackberry is very weak and the cream is sweet and strong, so I went heavy on the blackberry for my first batch. Blackberry Cream 8% Bavarian Cream 27% Blackberry 33% VG 15% PG 17%...

    Anyone else shy about e-smoking in public?

    Amen to that! At least for now, I think we should also be cautious in other places that we've been accustomed to being nonsmoking areas for years. How we present ourselves while e-cigs are controversial and not well known will impact ultimate acceptance by a public that is strongly against...

    NuVapes Non Pg Formula- Ingredients Here!

    Maybe, but this combo bothers me, all in all. I'm guessing the α-Ionone is what makes it work with the atty, and I don't think the Damascenone bothers me, but I wouldn't be comfortable with the other 2 ingredients.

    Best recipes for these flavors? Chagin that elusive throat hit as well

    Pesok, are you using the Hackomatic? It comes up with 3.08mg nic. If you're aiming for 4.8 it looks lilke you need to up the 14mg strawberry to 34-35%, and then adjust everything else to balance the flavoring to your taste. Nic level affects the throat hit, although I don't think there would...
