    How much is too much?

    Coming from a few cigs a day at most I don't get a buzz off anything less than 18mg 100% PG, which I'm currently putting down to my PV being a 'cigalike' 808. May want to try 100% PG juices, I find they seem to hit a lot harder for the amount of nicotine in them, if you're using 36mg 50/50...

    Nicotine - Equivalent strengths - Disposable ecig v cigarettes

    I've never had a disposable dry up on me before I finished it, and I've tried both Premium and WC disposables as 'pocket carry' devices when I don't want to hassle with my 808s needing recharging. To answer about your nicotine levels, even with all the other information, I'd start with...

    Vaping inhale methods

    I have little to no trouble bringing it into my mouth and straight out my nose, using an 18mg clove flavor, 100% PG, though I tried it with a PG/VG mix and can't do it without it hurting like all get out, so your mileage may vary I guess. I never exhaled through my nose as a smoker, tried it...

    Working on my first mod, steampunk portable/desk use.

    So, finally starting on a mod, got tired of only having my two KD808s available to me, so I picked up a pair of double-A battery boxes, a sealed 510 connector, few LEDs and appropriate resistors, need to grab a switch at some point, and am now looking for something like this brass tubing: Square...

    Am I vamping too much?

    I've been analog free for nearly six weeks now and I still find myself chain-vaping, even liquids I know are 0mg, and even when the 18 I use isn't giving me a buzz any longer. I do however notice I only do it when I'm bored now, as opposed to my first few days vaping 6mg at a party when I was...

    Amount of menthol crystals needed in a mix?

    Thanks to you all, exactly the info I was looking for. MFS has pre-mixed 15ml bottles for the same price as it'd cost me to mix my own, so I'm going that route to start with just for convenience until I get a handle on things and start making larger batches of totally DIY liquid, then I might...

    Vaping in the heat/car

    What kind of a mix/juice are you using? I've been carrying my carto/battery loose in a pocket all summer and not noticed any issues regardless of weather, humidity, etc, and I'm vaping a fairly dark-colored juice, not sure how 'heavy' it is but I'd imagine it's fairly thick. If anything I...

    Amount of menthol crystals needed in a mix?

    Anybody have any experience using raw menthol crystals in 100% PG mixes? Have an excellent clove flavor here and I'm thinking of splitting it two ways since I've vaped half the bottle already and found the taste slightly lacking, was going to try a mix with sweetener, and one with menthol...

    510 X, 510 T, double ego T

    I'll chime in with what little I know about the 510s, the 510-T uses a different cartridge design involving a spike instead of a wick, or something along those lines, and you're locked into 510-T carts if memory serves. I don't remember advantages to the 510-T if there are any, but I know that...

    How old are you and how long did you smoke

    22, female, smoked on and off for four years, averaged about a cigarette per night over that time, counting days I smoked more at college, and the months I was too lazy or cheap to buy a pack. Off analogs for six weeks almost now and not looking back. I can say with certainty I was never...

    Wasn't even planning on quitting, it just happened!!

    I admit my quitting story isn't a case of illness, thankfully, though I remember one time smoking half a pack in a night where I was sick as a dog the next day..but that didn't make me quit, shockingly. I quit when I started dating my highschool sweetheart, partly for myself, partly for her...

    Quick question on vapor production and the strength of the hit

    As in the topic title, I'm wondering if there's a correlation between the amount of vapor, the amount of PG/VG, and the strength of the nicotine 'hit' experienced from a single puff. I started with an unknown mixture of PG/VG that produced a rather natural vapor cloud equivilent to that of an...

    Question on carrying/transporting vapes

    Depends upon what type of cartridge/cartomizer/tank you purchased. I've had no issues carrying cartos in my pocket, but I have a hard case just to be on the safe side. If you're using clearomizers, tanks, etc, you may not want to carry in a pocket due to risk of leaking or breakage. Post some...

    Looking for 1st experience - one that looks and feels like a traditional cig

    I don't want to recommend any specific company since the one I started with was rather high-priced now that I know what I'm doing, but as far as size, look into a KR808-style battery, I've been happy with the weight and general feel of them, just like a regular 'wide' cigarette weight-wise, and...
