    The cost of vaping

    I keep an Excel spreadsheet of what I would have spent on cigarettes versus what I have spent on vaping. So far I've managed to save $741.36 in the nearly 14 months since I quit smoking. Not even close to what my banner reflects. I was actually in the red for about the first 6 or 7 months...

    IBTanked vs Protank2

    If I remember correctly, you got the XL cartos. If that's the case then you should be fine. I don't know how much juice those hold but it sounds like you got it pretty close. I think the Standard cartos that I use hold about 1ml. I'm a firm believer that it's better to under prime than to over...

    IBTanked vs Protank2

    Glad to hear that you got your tank. The end caps do come off but there really isn't any reason to remove them unless they are causing your tank to leak juice. I've had my IBTanks for several months and I've never removed the caps. I simply never had the need to. When cleaning the tank...

    Quitters Never Win: The Nicoticket Success Banner Bribery Thread

    Yep, same here. My banner will eventually update on its own but it seems to take several days. Pressing the F5 button or the Reload icon will force an immediate update.

    Has anyone found that vaping has stained their teeth?

    No stains here but my dentist hated the stains I used to get from smoking. Try blowing your vapor through a white tissue and see if it makes a stain on the tissue. I haven't encountered a juice yet that does.

    IBTanked vs Protank2

    If you think the Protank is easy to use then you're in for a treat when you get your IBTanked. It might seem complicated but rest assured that it is not. In fact, ease of use and low maintenance are two of the IBTank's strongest points. Don't let it worry you too much. You''ll be fine and I...

    OK! OK! I am now a believer!

    You can use the ones you already have.

    OK! OK! I am now a believer!

    You certainly are welcome. Regarding the size of the cartomizers, I recommend going with the "Standard" size. They are 35mm in length and you can buy them from the IBTanked website as well as other vendors. I only use the Standard size so I cannot comment on the larger or the smaller ones...

    OK! OK! I am now a believer!

    Yes, with a carto tank you just pop in a new carto and you're ready to go. No wicks or anything. Doing a "hot swap" can be a little tricky for first timers but it becomes second nature after the first time. (A hot swap is when you replace the carto while your tank still has juice in it) If...

    Looking for a Good "Hands Free" Option for Vaping

    If you just want something for the fishing trip you might consider picking up an Njoy from a local convenience store. My wife had one of those a few months ago and that little bugger was just like a cigarette. It was about the same weight and size as a regular king size cigarette and she said it...

    Can someone tell me about Wakonda?

    I get a pretty good dose of coffee flavor from Wakonda. Not an intense, in your face coffee but dark and rich with some creamy notes in the background. The coffee flavor is very "authentic" for lack of a better word as it reminds me of the smell of fresh coffee beans. I like the Caramel...

    Glass bottle question? Blue or Amber?

    Specialty Bottle - Amber Boston Round Glass Bottles This is where I get mine but there are other places. 1/2 ounce bottles are 15ml and 1 ounce bottles are 30ml. I don't have any problems with scent or taste from the caps. Want to hear something really obsessive? I never let the liquid...

    Quitters Never Win: The Nicoticket Success Banner Bribery Thread

    This seems to work on any page. Not just the "Edit Signature" page. I just made a post in another section and afterwards I hit the refresh button. It has only been a little more than an hour ago since I first tried this. My banner went from 17 hours to 18 hours when I hit refresh. Something...

    Glass bottle question? Blue or Amber?

    I do the exact same thing that you are proposing to do. I even bought my bottles from specialtybottle.com. I use the amber bottles and I haven't had any problems. SleeZy is right about it being a pain to have bottles without droppers but I've gotten used to it. I have droppers that I use to...

    For those of you whose banners are slow to update: Try clicking on "Settings" at the top right corner of any page. Then click on "Edit Signature" in the left column. Once you're on the "Edit Signature" screen refresh the page. My banner was 4 days behind and it updated the second I hit...

    Hit it or Quit it - Wakonda (SR)

    Dang! This is good stuff! I'm reluctant to confess that anything could top H1N1 but my thoughts are starting to sway in that direction. I think it's safe to say that I like them equally well at the very least. Wakonda gets better and better the more I vape it. I'm finding that vaping...

    Anyone planning to stop vaping eventually?

    I have no plans to stop vaping but my wife is trying to talk me into it. In 2015 our health insurance company is going to start charging an additional $110 a month for users of electronic cigarettes as well as smokers. They're lumping us in with the smokers. She wants us to quit vaping (she...
