    Might sound like a really dumb question about voltage but...

    I endorse the plus two rule, not guaranteed, not absolute, but a good starting point. Then adjust to fit your tastes. For me this can sometimes vary a little from day-to-day even when using the same carto and juice.

    USPS Poll – How frequently do you have problems with mail delivery?

    My office is on somewhat of a combo route, lots of small office buildings with 10 to 30 suites in most buildings, with some single business and a few retail buildings. The carrier drives to the different buildings, but then walks the buildings to serve the individual suites. She's 50'ish...

    USPS Poll – How frequently do you have problems with mail delivery?

    At my home there is really no safe/secure place to leave a package that will not fit in the mail box, and depending on what I have ordered some would fit and others would not. My mailbox is a smaller box attached/affixed to the house. I would be worried about the possibility of theft or other...

    USPS Poll – How frequently do you have problems with mail delivery?

    Okay folks, I’ve got to vent a little… and explain. I have my vaping supplies mailed to me at work. I own my business, I am here at the office more than I am at home, and I’d rather have my supplies delivered at work instead having packages left by my door when they don’t fit in the mail box at...

    Anyone Add Menthol Juice to other Flavors - Where to Buy/How much to use?

    I use, and sometimes experiment with, menthol drops from Alien Vision. To me, and this is very much a personal taste issue, mixing menthol with AV's Flue Cured or Blend 4 has come the closest to replicating a real cig. These menthol drops are pretty strong, one or two drops in a 5ml bottle is...

    I've been using one of these for about 10 months with no problems... main point of dislike is not having a LED for each battery slot... works good though

    Is charging too much.. Bad?

    I was an electronic tech for about 15 years until I changed careers in the early 90s. Any ET worth his salt would always completely discharge any rechargeable battery before recharging - the well known 'memory effect" of the batteries of the day as the reason. Of course this was before modern...

    effects of pg allergic??

    For me it was sore throat and sinus, with a slightly bloody discharge from sinuses. This was when I first started vaping almost a year ago now. Stopped vaping, ordered some 100% VG juice, and went back to smoking while I waited for my juice to arrive. Two problems I have found with VG, vaping...

    boba's bounty

    Boba's has been great for me in Smok cartomizers, no problems at all in the eight months I have I have vaped it. Only cartomizer problem I have had has been with Boge cartos. I vape it in cartos and clearo tanks, cartos can last a week for me at moderate use, the clearos require cleaning after...

    Drying cartos

    I put my cartos on the dash of my van when I am parked at work, or at the mall, or as I did this weekend, when I am at the movie theater... green energy baby! I also think this helps some with any residual taste/odor that might be present in the carto. Just be sure to secure all of your cartos...

    mods

    I should have also mentioned that my cotton swab mod fits nicely in my hand, and since I am using NiMh batteries, it's not going to go nuclear and burn my house down while the batteries are charging!

    mods

    I have a 3.7V box mod that I made from a MadVapes kit. It was a good step up from my pen/cig style sticks. I use it from time-to-time, and it is a great first mod for beginners, but it is not my fav. Next I built a VV from a MV kit. I didn't like it at first, but now I use it every day. Good...

    question for the more knowledgable

    I would go with the LR clearos or cartos.

    Who out there vapes Gorilla Juice?

    I use Gorilla Juice on a daily, or almost daily basis, in all of my mods and even my 510 stick. I am stocked extensively now with Boge cartos after using Smoktech exclusively for months, and I can not wait to use these so I can restock with the Smoks. Hate, hate, hate the Boges with all of my...

    Is This Juice Bad - Johnson Creek Valencia

    Thanks ComfyChair, this Valencia just seems very strange to me, in a very bad way. Vaping some JC Domestic now, and glad to say that it is much better.

    Is This Juice Bad - Johnson Creek Valencia

    Recently bought a Red Oak Sample Pack... tried the Tennessee Cured first, loved it. Tried Valencia next, smelled really great, very fragrant... filled a 2ohm carto, waited awhile to let the carto saturate completely, tried it at 4.8V on my Puck... some taste/flavor, but very, very, very little...

    What's your favorite menthol?

    I like Alien Vision's Menthol Drops... comes in a separate bottle for you to add to your juice to suite your taste... I didn't smoke menthol analogs, but mixed on the light side this gives me a hit similar to an analog when used with AV's Blend 4 or Gamel. One word of caution, this stuff is...
