    FDA Sued Over Electronic Cigarette Embargo

    It's my feeling looking at most of the posts in the past about SE (and granted, I may be 'new' here, but I read a WHOLE lot before I joined up) is that most people wouldn't have a problem with SE, or any other large corporation selling e-cigs in storefront/kiosk settings, if they were more...

    FDA Sued Over Electronic Cigarette Embargo

    Nicotine is found in other things like potatoes and eggplant, but not in sufficient volume to make extraction from anything other than tobacco worthwhile. There is, I believe, a synthetic nicotine, but I don't know if the costs to manufacture it would be at a level where it could be used...

    FDA Sued Over Electronic Cigarette Embargo

    Right, and one last thing to consider is that, if the PV is classified as a 'tobacco products', then it falls under the same usage bans that cigarettes currently fall under. So, the more I think about it, the more I agree that classification of the device as a 'tobacco product' does not serve...

    FDA Sued Over Electronic Cigarette Embargo

    I, for one, would not want my PV categorized as a tobacco product. Regardless of the type of product, anything associated with tobacco gets attacked relentlessly, especially with the 'think of the children' types. Cigarettes, chewing tobacco, snuff, snus, tobacco 'candies', you name it, all...

    FDA Sued Over Electronic Cigarette Embargo

    Neither would be my obvious choice, but honestly, I do believe that the e-liquid (not the devices) need some sort of manufacturing regulation or oversight. As it is now, we're taking the manufacturers at their word about what is in the E-Liquid to begin with. Yes, the ingredients appear to be...

    FDA Sued Over Electronic Cigarette Embargo

    Not only can we, as the public, inform the court that the injunction serves our interest, but we as users can also briefly explain that, without access to this technology, many of us may return to smoking tobacco products again, thus showing 'likelihood of irreparable harm in the absence of...

    FDA Sued Over Electronic Cigarette Embargo

    I've seen links to the judge's official information, but does anyone have any history of this judge and any similar cases that may have been brought before him? Might give some insight into which argument he may lean towards. Ivisi

    Unbelievable service

    Holy Wow! I ordered on Friday afternoon, and here it is, Monday afternoon, and I've just opened my purchase. Great communications, awesome shipping, love the products, couldn't ask for a better experience. Also, the menthol crystals smell like the offspring of Vicks Vap-O-Rub and Halls Cough...

    New Hack-O-Matic Sheet

    Found a bug. It doesn't allow for 0 strength nic-juice. If I choose 0 for Step 1, it sets Commercial E-liquid to a hard 100%. This is a side effect of the formula you're using to calculate the percentage of Commercial liquid. I'm no Excel programmer (work mainly in C#) so I have no idea how...

    The use of water in your DIY juice...

    Just for giggles, I asked my wife what she thought, since she was a chemistry major in college and has been teaching chemistry for several years at a private school. While not being too knowledgeable on how the atomizer works specifically, she said it would make sense that the water could...

    Crazy flavourings

    I'm starting my flavor trip this weekend. I'm still using the standard nic juice you buy from pretty much anyone, but I'm going to start experimenting with just VG, distilled water, and flavorings. That way, I won't have a ton of money invested in ingredients, I can mix small batches and...

    E-Liquid -What do you think is the correct level of regulation

    Here in Florida, I can buy patches and gum at Target, but Target also doesn't sell tobacco. They do, however, have a pharmacy, and that's generally where I see things like patches, gum, and lozenges for sale. (You'd think it be more beneficial to put it next to the tobacco products, but what...

    E-Liquid -What do you think is the correct level of regulation

    Like most of you, I went middle of the road. I'd like to know that steps are being taken to keep this out of the hands of minors (as much as is humanly possible, anyways), labeled properly, and all ingredients tested and disclosed. And a question. Do you have to have a specific license to...

    E-Cig Success Rate?

    It's been 8 days since I received my first PV, and it's been 8 days since I smoked my last analog. Nothing else over the last 18 years has worked. The second longest I've ever went without a cigarette has been 2 days, and that was the longest 2 days of my life. These last 8 days, no issues...

    One week in, and I'm loving it...

    I've had my M401 since Wednesday of last week, and so far I've been tobacco-free ever since. I have been researching the personal vaporizer (I do like that name better, not for distancing the devices from cigarettes for the public, but for distancing the devices from cigarettes for my own...

    Received my Pilot kit order yesterday...

    I like the M401 so far. I ordered my first kit from David Yang, as it appeared everyone else was either vastly overpriced or out of stock. I was hesitant to order directly from China, considering the troubles with the FDA and Customs, but the experience was superb. I decided, though, that now...

    Day 1: Kicking the habit

    Well, my M401 arrived yesterday, my first PV. I was itching to try it, but my juice had not yet arrived, so I was stuck charging the batteries and hoping my juice order would get here soon. And soon became today. Thankfully, I didn't have to wait long. Now, first day using the M401, and I...
