    how fast did you get off tobacco?

    Even with health problems from smoking it is hard to quit. Severe COPD and could not stop smoking. I had 4 cigs left in the pack when I finally understood the 510 instructions enough to make it work. Wasn't going to waste any money, so finished those 4 on the 6th of March this year and...

    Lost and Frustrated

    I'm on my 3rd cleaning of Boge 2.0's and can not tell the difference from new. Remove rubber cap, boil them, stirring every so often. Dump out water, refill and boil again. First time I put them under a small fan to dry, but took two days to dry good. Second time I put in a 200 degree oven...

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

    If you have the 5v and hold a draw long enough to cycle through the colors, I should be able to see the cloud of vapor from my house. ;-)

    State of vaping (in my opnion)

    Make sure you let a juice steep for a couple weeks before you trade it off. I can remember someone telling me casablanca was very good, so tired it. It tasted like ear wax smells. It was awful! Let it sit for 2 weeks and it was wonderful. Was one of my top ten favorites. Then I tried it at...

    Riva 510 a few questions

    I got a little over 2 days out of my Riva (1100 mAH), so a little less battery life isn't going to hurt you. Plenty of videos to show you how to fill cartos and carts also. I'm on the lazy side, so use the condum fill for cartos and then top off. I just received the 1.5 SmokeTeck cartos and...

    Silly QOD: What's in the exhaled vapor?

    JW50 - I've looked at our bottles and they say mineral oil and come in different flavors. I haven't noticed any difference with all VG or 50/50 mix. No headaces at all, but seem to be sore all over. Probably just old age and not serious enough to look into. If I drop a dime on the floor...

    Looking for a good high volt pv.

    Provari is top of the line!! Not exactly something to drop in your shirt pocket, but I'm going to ask Santa for one. ;-)

    Looking for a good high volt pv.

    I bought the 5v of this one and love it. foxyboxmods.com - Home I also bought the 3.7 because it puts out a true 3.7v. Most the others put out 3.4v. Also catch the thread at...

    Silly QOD: What's in the exhaled vapor?

    Until further studies are done, we should not stand around a sick person in the hospital and blow second hand vapor on them. All kidding aside, I have severe COPD from 45 years of smoking and 35 years in the fire department not always using good safety habits, so can identify with folks that...

    catomizer cleaning

    What kind of carts are they and have you tried only one? I have boiled my Boge 2.5's twice now and no problem. How did you dry them? Blow in the threaded end and make sure no water came out? It took mine a couple days to air dry. Of course I don't think water would short them out, since the...

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

    adeline - I hope you ordered both. Some of these juices at 5v are a whole new experiance. BRB casablanca was in my top ten of favorites and jumped to tie Boba's as my very favorite at 5v. WOW! Steve - my FSUSA RY4 is very dark and doesn't do well at 5v. Sure was nice to read your comment...

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

    Steve - you were right about the dual 1.5 cartos for the 3.7 mod. Very nice!! Mine arrived today and I'm enjoying the RY4 again. It holds twice the juice and lasts a long time. I'll be taking it to the golf course tomorrow. It doesn't look like it will hold up to boiling for cleaning, but...

    Filling Joye 510 cartos.. funny taste?

    I'm a little lost as to what you have. To the best of my knowledge, a "carto" is a cartomizer, which is a cartridge and atomizer in one unit. You don't pull the filling out of those. A "cart" is a blank cartridge that you put into an atomizer. Which do you have? The method you described...

    Vaping in public

    I was in the non-smoking area of a casino a couple weeks ago and from 20' away an attendant said, "you can't smoke in here", which turned a few heads, so I said, "sorry" and put the 5v box mod back in my pocket. Casino folks have no sense of humar, so thought it best to comply intead of trying...

    Vaping in public

    I'm with you Red, but having to stand upwind from them now. These are friends I've smoked with for years, but most of those analogs really stink. Not much luck converting any either. A couple have looked and thought it was too much work. I'll keep trying. Hig

    Do you smoke err vape a different flavor when you drink?

    Great question! I got my son to quit smoking, except when he's working in the garage and drinking beer. He said the e-cig doesn't do it for him. I don't drink anymore, so couldn't help him, but will direct him to his thread. Chime - try casablanca at 5v, it is soooo good. At 5v it ties my...

    Help..newbie messed up.....again

    I doubt it is the nic giving you a headace. I smoked untra lights also and 24mg was no problem at all. I worked my way down to 6mg, but now 12mg at work and 6mg at home, where I vape more. I would suspect you have a problem with PG or VG. Might want to experiment with that first. Your body...

    Joining in on the fun!

    Welcome to ECF and I am sure you will enjoy it here. There is a sub-forum for juices and you might want to ask your juice question in there. Sorry to hear you are out of work and I hope things pick up for you. I also ordered some dual coil cartos and looking forward to trying them. I...
