    Bartleby PV review

    My 3 week old bartleby broke today (well sort of). The tab snapped off the cover as I was changing the battery. Now the cover will not stay on without tape(which looks SO attractive). The tab is SO small I could not find it anywhere. I missed half the Eagles game trekking down to Radio Shack...

    I am so glad I never gave you any money.

    There are no laws on "the books" concerning ecigs. How can you make an educated decision as a consumer if the suppliers are legally held to zero standards for to you compare and contrast against?

    Slightly confused about CASAA

    The figures from the US Department of Justice show that in County and State Facilities, 60%+ of those incarcerated are there for non-violent drug offenses(possesion and intent to distribute or non violent crimes related to drug addiction). In Federal prison, the stats are a bit better, but...

    Slightly confused about CASAA

    Sorry for continuing the derail, but Mordred, you hit the nail on the head. That's why the Swiss ...... program is such a resounding success. Instead of jailing ...... addicts , they give them clean pharmaceutical ...... for free. Crime has dropped ENORMOUSLY. HIV/Hepatitis transmission has...

    Protege charger broke, Help!

    Here's a fairly inexpensive, USA sourced substitute for the Trustfire multifunction TR-001. I've read on a few candlepower forums that this Ultrafire wf-139 multifuntion charger is actually preferred by RC & Flashlight enthusiasts over the TR-001. Apparently the charge rate is somewhat faster...

    Problems with the BB

    I initially had an issue with my BB which I attributed to the powdercoat, but it seems that it was the switch that was the culprit. No matter how clean I got the interior, it just wasn't working right. I contacted Chad and Rob and had a replacement within a few days and it's all good(Hopefully...

    E-Cigs will never be Legal

    The actual long term US smoking statistics don't really bear this out. Over the past 4 decades in the US(since 1965) the percetage of adult smokers has declined by more then half(from about 43% to about 21%). It took no legislative action or regulatory enforcement to cause this drop, simply a...

    Also, get rid of the suppliers that obviously have gone belly up(i.e. not shipped an item nor responded to a post since the Reagan administration), regardless if they're paying their dues or not. They're just taking up space.

    Dear ECA and Njoy

    I can see strawberry, mango, kiwi and cherry as "flavors" and MB, Kent ,Hilton, Camel, Menthol as "tobacco". But what about products like the RY series(RY1,RY2 etc...) 555, Riskee, taboo, etc... . These are all slightly tweeked tobacco varieties(i.e. RY4 has vanilla and caramel overtones, but...

    Care for bb

    Hey Chad, With the SB the "polishing product" of choice was the Mother's Aluminum Mag Cleaner. Is there any analogous cleaning/polishing agent for the BB(smooth version or Krinkle)?

    Bartleby PV review

    Oh I agree, no doubt, I just personally enjoy 3.7V vaping over 5V(except on a direct connect passthru). My 5V Prodigy is one of my most unused mods. Don't ask me why, but , on battery operated mods, the 5V experience just doesn't do it for me.

    Bartleby PV review

    I emailed him as well and here is the response I got : The 5v mod I make uses a 3AA box and a voltage regulator and has ZERO USB capabilities. I charge $40 for the 5v. Your choice of 510 or 901 ( 801 if you send a dead stock battery ) Jay Not really into the random $10 jump in price...

    Bad Juice/Health Hazzards

    Theoretically,(rather then your lungs being covered with shellac) your pulmonary alveoli absorb PG(then 20-25% of that is excreted unchanged in urine) the rest your body converts first to pyruvate then either to lactic acid or CO2 and H2O , which is then excreted by lungs or kidneys...

    You Decide...

    Add a Lot #, just in case there is a bad batch, it can be recalled. I know there are currently no labeling requirements for eliquids, but I would also add a Useage statement(for electronic vaporization only). I don't know what ancillary info(additonal info sheet) is being provided, but go with...

    Bad Juice/Health Hazzards

    Propylene Glycol, USP is the only grade of PG allowed by law to be incorporated into pharmaceutical products(syrups/suspensions, dermatologicals, opthamic preps, inhalers and nebulizer solutions etc...). The FDA has made a general statement in regards to FCC grade PG(in fact all FCC grade...

    The BB - Updates and Information.

    This one: DYNEX UNIVERSAL 1.5v to 12v CAR POWER ADAPTER - Cowboom Store is a bit suspect, as I can't find what the current output is(should be 2 Amp at 5V to be safe) on the website. The other 2 look OK(at least at the voltages below 7V), they list the amperage on each one at each...
