    Good life vapor opinions...

    Both The Keys and Tahitian Pearl made the line-up at first, but I ended up replacing both of them. I kinda wish I had kept The Keys, but since I'm getting the 30ml sample pack, I thought I should stick a little closer to my comfort zone the first time out. I tend to revolve around sweet(ish)...

    Good life vapor opinions...

    Just ordered my first sample pack from this vendor - Deadly Sin, El Kamino, Newminster 23 and High Five. Really looking forward to these.

    Members of ReoVille, please sell me on getting a Reo...

    Gotta have your priorities, no doubt. I have twin freshmen who will be ready for college before I get turned around good, and some day, I'd like to retire, so I had to plan and wait for mine, too. The trade-off is maybe appreciating and enjoying it even more when I finally got it.

    Members of ReoVille, please sell me on getting a Reo...

    I just got a VV Grand a couple of weeks ago and haven't put it down. Hate to sound like a fangirl, but honestly, after just a couple of weeks, the concept of dripping or futzing around with various tank attys just seems ... silly. In fact, I'm about to list my Provari and maybe a couple of mechs...

    Rba/Rda tools. What do you use? Custom?

    I keep looking. My sister makes jewelry and owns a bead shop. There are all kinds of nifty jewelry tools that could be adapted for vaping. She gave me a wire winder thingy that I'm sure somebody could adapt to make coils. I'll have to post a pic of it later and see if anybody has some ideas.

    Long-term Vapers

    Haven't touched a cigarette - or wanted to - since July 5, 2010, the day that first KR808d kit came in the mail (my, how things have changed). I'm currently enjoying the fourth winter in a row without a single bout of the bronchitis / pneumonia that I used to get at least once every single year.

    Faithful Companion

    I'm blessed to have both two-legged kids and four-legged kids and love them all fiercely. My heart goes out to all of you.

    Like a ROCK

    I was out and about with my VV Grand / RM2 set up for the first time today. It's perfect for errand-running - more than enough juice and battery life for a full day and then some (for me, anyway). It doesn't leak, no matter what position it's in (well, I guess if you gave it a big squonk right...

    Rba/Rda tools. What do you use? Custom?

    That's perfect. I have the same problem, and it's my number one source of frustration. May have to give this a try. FYI, these would be great: They're called parallel action pliers. This particular pair is $40 though, so you're method wins unless I can find these a lot cheaper. *your*

    Slow Cooker Extraction of Tobacco and Tea

    OMG, I can't believe I haven't even thought of doing this - Sherman MCD's were my cigarette of choice back in the day. I'll definitely try N-E-T.com's offering, but I want to give the extraction a go myself. I was reading this thread back to front just to see what's going on currently, so I...

    Happy Birthday Reo Grand

    I think the purpose of the suspenders is to hoist your pants up in such a way as to facilitate the high notes.

    VV Reo Stacked batteries?

    Turns out the matched pair are button-tops - I have one flat-top that is odd man out. Batteries are working, coil is just right, MOV Pendragon is delicious and the REO is outstanding! Good juju for the new year.

    Cannot find a good ejuice

    Finding a juice you like can be extremely frustrating when you're just getting started and the memory of tobacco is still fresh in your mind. In truth, you won't find anything that exactly replicates the experience of smoking. If flavor is the sticking point for you, you're best bet is going to...

    Selling used equipment on eBay

    +1 for the ECF classies. I've bought and sold several things that way, from a $5 box of cartos to a $200 mod, and they've all been good experiences. You might also want to check out the P.I.F. (Pay it Forward) Group in the Social Groups forum.

    VV Reo Stacked batteries?

    Speaking of batteries ... Unfortunately (and typically) for me, the phrase "two 18350 batteries" rattled around in my head without really registering for a couple of days after I ordered my VVG, so now my pretty new REO is smiling expectantly at me from the coffee table, but my new batts won't...
