    Tasty first vape, but a crackling/gurgling noise?

    :thumbs: Exactly my feeling after 6 days vaping! I love that crackling sound as well. Cleaned my atomizers for the first time today (there are loads of methods, see the Maintenance forum - I used a hot water soak with a bit of lemon juice, blowthrough, then dry on a cloth on top of a...

    Hooray my kit arrived today!!!!!

    This! I'm glad I got a manual. I can "preheat" by holding the button on slightly before starting to inhale. Vaping outside, in a Glasgow winter (cold and damp), quite a bit of preheat is needed to get any kind of flavour.

    Hooray my kit arrived today!!!!!

    I'm still learning. Dragging really slowly works well for me. I mean a long, slow intake of breath, not at all the quick pull that works well on an analog cigarette. If you've smoked analogs, it seems counter-intuitive, but it makes sense: - On an analog, a faster airflow makes it burn...

    Testimony needed to defeat 70% TAX on e-cigs in Hawaii (and eventually other states!)

    Awesome! It makes my day when legislators actually scrutinise claims. Here in the UK it's generally the Lords who actually read and think about what's in front of them. (The Lords are unelected, which makes for some weird paradoxes - are unelected reps a good idea? Maybe if not bothering...

    Resize pictures?

    Hi Just started a thread in the Accessories forum. Weird thing is that you can't resize uploaded images. (There are other weird problems as well) To be clear, this is what I'm doing (according to the instructions in the sticky in the How-Tos) - Manage Attachments;add files from my PC - Drag...

    Made a tank-case out of a plank

    Hi all I'm definitely bitten by this vaping business! Loving the flavour I'm getting from my first PV. One problem though: how do I carry all those little tanks around with me? I'm still at the stage of trying out various flavours in 10ml sizes, and haven't settled on a favourite juice...

    Accidental absorption through skin - a concern?

    Thanks both of you. And you've answered my other question: my "12mg" juice actually means 1.2% nicotine content, I now know. I think the stuff in the aircrash story was 100% pure. Wouldn't want to go near that stuff!

    Accidental absorption through skin - a concern?

    Hi I read somewhere that spilling e-liquid on your skin is a really bad idea. The concentrations I'm dealing with (or probably, anyone vaping is dealing with) are probably not too dangerous - all my liquids, for example, are 12mg nicotine. But I was wondering how much of a concern...

    Terrible chemically taste in mouth and I smell weird. HELP!!

    I hope this goes away or settles down for you. I'm finding all kinds of strange things going on with my senses of taste and smell - after only 6 days off the analog cigs. It's quite disorienting. I think I'm used to the world looking/sounding/smelling a certain way - now I go to a place I...

    Would love to read a report on how it went. We may need the benefit of your experience here in the UK at some point...

    uk vendors

    Alba Vapours mix their own? I wasn't sure. Got 6 10ml bottles of their Alba Mist range, and I'm enjoying trying them all out. Highly recommended for speed of delivery. Their Red Apple is fantastic. Stealth-vaped it last night in the pub with a pint of Addlestones cider. (I think this pub...

    Where in the UK are you from?

    English-grew-up-in-Holland, lived in London, Newcastle, Oz, Edinburgh, now living in sunny balmy Glasgow. Smoked for 22 years; gave up just like that the day my PV kit arrived. :vapor:

    Cold outside?

    just under -15C. Yep, that's Damn Cold. Does vaping work outside?

    Cold outside?

    Quickie question. I know there are a lot of people here on the forum from continental N America. So I'm not going to go on about how cold it is in Scotland at the moment, when I could get a pop-up quick reply from Wisconsin saying "-5C, what, are you sunbathing on the beach? :tongue:" Vaping...

    Lo-tech attie cleaning? What about tanks?

    Hi all Hope you're all happy. I am. Vaping on a nice Red Apple juice from Alba Vapours here in Scotland. I've read a lot about cleaning atomizers; as a total newbie, it's coming up to 1 week of use, and I'd like to keep these things working well (while knowing they won't last forever). I'm...

    A Decision On a Vaping Policy at a UK Workplace

    Good on you for trying your best to make a change. I think you've been up against pretty impossible odds. Namely, stupidity (against which, according the quote, even the Gods can't win). The phrase bolded sums it up: rather than actually think about what's involved in the issue, it's much...

    Why have my farts...

    I can't believe what this vaping is doing to my gas-production... last night I let one off that almost knocked me over when it hit the nostrils. My friends were last seen running out the door. There's a nationwide TV appeal for any sightings of them. I learned from this; next time I held it...

    Juice Flavors...a feew questions

    Can I jump in here and ask about steeping? I've seen it mentioned, but no general guidelines. I've only been vaping a few days, and so I've just piled in there and tried all the flavours. Is there any general rule about what juices need steeping? And how do you "steep"? Is it dependent on...
