    A need to vent...

    The TW deal is so tempting, but with my luck I'd get the bad ones. I'm actually in pretty good shape with attys for a while, but still a bit nervous about the ban. I got the JS so I'd have something that takes regular batteries, but of course we don't know how long the Stick itself will last...

    RIP Teddy Kennedy

    I started typing my thoughts on what's been going on in this thread, but you just summed it up perfectly. For Ted Kennedy, who endured loss after loss, was essentially the loving father of 16 children and patriarch of a family of nearly 90... God bless, and rest in peace.

    Travel and Vaping Airplanes and Vaping doable?

    There are more than one type of smoke detector, and they have different triggers. Some will go off. Blowing the vapor at a lav detector in a plane has already been tried - it set it off.

    Introducing ourselves? I'll start LOL

    Hey everyone. MaryKay - my two word reply was about the best my brain could come up with at 7am, but thanks for the welcome. I was a chainsmoker for close to 40 years. I first heard of e-cigs in the smokers rights newsletter over a year ago, but didn't see much about them other than Crown-7's...

    USB Passthru works intermittently now...

    I've been through this, and the fix is easy. Your battery is probably no good, so try a fresh one. If the PT is new, have the supplier send a new battery.

    Who mixes their own juice?

    My first weekend of DIY adventure included nearly every Lorann flavor I had ordered, and i remember what my kitchen looked like when I started playing... in hindsight I should have taken pictures! After a few experiments you'll get your routine down. Now I have one drawer with everything I...

    So who misses smoking?

    I wish it were easy, but its not. Dad's 86, and has survived stage 3 cancer, an aortic aneurysm and a blown aortic graft. It's been 7 years, but test now shows the cancer might be coming back. I can't fault him for feeling he wants to be comfortable doing whatever pleases him at this point...

    Update: I emailed Ethan, and as usual heard back from him almost immediately... he got a replacement to me in less than a week.

    So who misses smoking?

    They're foul, I hate them... and every now and then gotta have one. Right now I'm having a bit of a problem, but it will pass soon. My parents are in town. They're in their 80s and no longer smoke when they're home in Florida. Our 'tradition' for years has been that when they're up north...

    what gives more vapor?

    Somewhere in the Modders forum there's a thread about it with instructions if I remember right.

    Who mixes their own juice?

    I make my own. I've got plenty of 36mg flavorless, and mix it down with PG plus a 20% VG for extra vapor - it's so simple with the hackomatic! (and saves a ton of money). There are a few JuicyLiquid flavors I adore, and making my own concoctions with Lorann Oils is fun. I keep a spreadsheet...

    what gives more vapor?

    I get a better throat hit and better vapor from my 510 when I'm not using the PT.The standard 510 PT is powered by the same 10440 battery as the JS. You have to let the battery charge before you use it, and pretty frequently between vapes to maintain power. That's my experience, as well. The...

    510 atty lifespan?

    I've been rotating two 510 attys for three months. They're both still good, and so far testing shows no increase in resistance at all. The only maintenance I do is blow them out and stand them on their heads for a little while before I go to bed.

    Vaping at work

    In spite of no smoking laws I was always allowed to smoke in my office, even though I was the only smoker. Good for my comfort, but as a chain smoker bad for my health. Now I vape all day, and can do it in meetings where I could not smoke. I love it... it's much easier to sit through boring...

    A list of symptoms when quitting tobacco and changing to an ecigarette

    When I started vaping I was worried about tingling in my legs... afraid I wasn't tolerating vaping well. But I did some reading and saw that tingling or itching in the extremities can happen when you quit smoking, for exactly the reason you say - better blood flow and oxygenation. It will...
