    Vaping openly in hotel

    Good point about the smell. I vaped some Backo in my house and was told it smells like cigarettes, so gave the bottle to my son. The memory of having to smoke in the garage is still fresh, so not going to put my house privledges at risk. ;-) Hig

    What changes have you seen in yourself since going analog free?

    LOL - that is so true!! I read a post a couple months ago I'll never forget. The person said, "the whole world stinks!" and I laughed out loud. Our dog would pass a little gas and I'd just laugh and push him off the sofa, but now I get up and move. My wife has never smoked and she said...

    Vape outside with the Analoggers

    I don't have to go outside with the smokers, but they are my friends and I still go out every now and then. I need to stand upwind because it smells bad now, but have known them for a lot of years and don't want them to think I've turned into an anti-smoking nazi like some non-smokers have...

    How Long Have You Gone Without Smoking?

    Vocalek - congrats on two years!! And congrats to tinstar15 for 0 nic. I was impressed with myself using 6mg at home and 12mg at work, however 0 is fantastic! Of course that could bring up a legal problem. If you get stopped by a police officer because you are vaping in a car with a child...

    Dual coil carto help plz

    I'm new and love cartos, so will try to help. I'm only familiar with Boge or Smoke Tech and I use the condom method because I'm lazy. Of course I just received some 1.5 dual coil that didn't come with condums. That's the little rubber caps on either end. I'll cross my fingers and hope you...

    Copd

    I have severe COPD and since I started vaping, no more Advair and very seldom need the rescue inhauler. It seems when the weather changes I get a little tight in the chest, but the overall change is like getting my life back. Still use the steriod inhauler at night and expect I will always...

    Boycott PayPal

    One vendor I buy carto's from uses PayPal only and I just bought a great mod and used PayPal with no problem. Of course the black helocopters keep flying around my house. ;-) Hig

    Riva batteries and chargers all died at the same time!

    No, it didn't say why, but might have something to do with the protection curcuits in the battery. Only a guess, but you could maybe e-mail Vapor Junction and ask. I'm sure he isn't an expert, but he was probably told by his supplier why. Hig

    Riva batteries and chargers all died at the same time!

    I bought my Riva (1100 mAh) from Vapor Junction and there is a warning about charging these batteries from wall socket only. Not sure if this is connected to your problem, but might be. Hig

    LR is harder on batteries.

    I don't understand the bottom line here. Don't use LR atomizers or cartomizers because they will shorten battery life? How much shorter? It is great to have detailed information, however a 1.5 ohm dual coil cartomizer is just wonderful at 3.7v. And a regular cartomizer is fantastic at 5v. I...

    Bantam BC-8 e-station battery charger - can it be used on protected batts?

    I have a BC-8 battery charger and would like to charge 14500 900mAH batteries for my box mod. I don't have the slightest idea about anything electrical and would not know how to even hook them up. I used the charger when I was flying remote control airplanes, which was a disaster, but I'm...

    Quality 3.7v Box Mods from $19 5v Box Mods from $28

    I've seen the little buildings and mountains with tunnels, however I was real impressed with the two box cars that look old and used. You buy them that way or color them yourself? That looks soooo cool!! Steve - you were into flying model planes, I have a top of the line e-station BC-8...

    Now that's a good one. I had forgotten about that. What a panic!

    When the other half still smokes...

    He will have to want to quit. Believe me, I was so impressed with how easy it was to stop smoking that I had to share this great find with all my smoking friends and only one ordered an e-cig. I guess it is just too easy to pull one out and light it up. At least my son switched to e-cigs, but...

    Quality 3.7v Box Mods from $19 5v Box Mods from $28

    I used to fly fish the Klamath. My grandfather had a cabin near Dillon Creek and Blue Nose bridge, but that was many years ago. That picture is my son holding a large mouth from the San Diego river. Fun to catch and release. Hig

    Quality 3.7v Box Mods from $19 5v Box Mods from $28

    I wish I had saved the thread, but there was a great one (complete with pictures) on testing voltage on a bunch of different e-cigs. Most were coming in about 3.4v and I think I remember the Riva being the closest to 3.7v. So it is nice to have a true 3.7v and as one that owns a Riva, I CAN...

    Please Help! Confused about First Purchase!

    If small is still a big thing for you. Try the 510 with the XL batteries. They won't fit in the PCC, so just take an extra XL battery with you. When I first started vaping, one XL battery lasted me all day and had a bottle of juice in my drawer to top off the cartridge. Manual batteries are...

    New to Forum and New to Vaping

    I like to have an extra charger in case one fails. From what I've seen, the tobacco shops that sell e-cig stuff are more than double the price and most the Mall stuff is ........ what's a nice word for crap?......... not so good. Good luck and welcome to ecf. Spend lots of time reading...
