    "Only way to get better battery life is with a multi-battery buck regulated mod, or lower your watts". I will say again that I think that's an extraordinary claim. I read the thread, athough I will not swear in a court of law that I completely understand buck and boost technology yet. I am...

    HI, I'm a newbie; Please tell me I did OK

    OK Iffy, that's your cue. Careful jesse, better not say anything about what you might see as the advantages of variable voltage. You might end up getting a lot of arguments from those who seem to think that people should just content themselves with constant voltage, and also seem to think...

    "Your posts are starting to come off as a campaign more than an opinion. Let people make there own choices". I'll offer you a deal; don't tell me what to do, and I won't tell you what to do. And my posts are both opinion and campaign. This is a war against cigarettes; a war in which...

    What are some good VV mid size devices that are regulated?

    No problemo. :) I've been taking so much "incoming" lately that sometimes I get a little jumpy. LOL You peace out and vape on too. :) :vapor: :vapor: :vapor: :vapor: :vapor: :vapor: :vapor: :vapor: :vapor: :vapor: :vapor: :vapor: :vapor: :vapor: :vapor: :vapor...

    nicotine and depression

    I'd like to try something. Please PM me so I can give you me phone number. I would like to personally mentor you. I am about 90% sure I can get you off, and keep you off cigarettes, and you will be enjoying a very, very good vape. I will not charge you anything.

    ohm's...mahs....volts....oh my!!

    I think that the discussion of variable voltage vs. fixed voltage has very much to do with the discussion of amps, watts, ohms, and volts. And I really do not see how turning the knob on the bottom of the Joyetech eGo-C Twist clockwise for more heat at the coil and counterclockwise for less...

    HI, I'm a newbie; Please tell me I did OK

    Iffy, you know I love you, but this is gettin' old for me. IMO Variable voltage > constant voltage. IMO Constant voltage is not > variable voltage. IMO constant voltage not = variable voltage.

    "A mistake I see on here every day is the idea that a different voltage (or PV) will solve every issue". If I have ever given the impression that I think that variable voltage will "solve every issue", I would like to distance myself from that notion, which I disagree with 100%. That said, I...

    HI, I'm a newbie; Please tell me I did OK

    Your eGo Mega Dual Coil cartomizer isn't going to give you a great vape at 3.7 volts. Please get some (2-3) variable voltage Joyetech eGo-C Twist batteries that will power it much better, and ideally some single-coil 2.0 ohm cartomizers and/or CE3 clearomizers and/o a couple of Vivi Nova tanks.

    ohm's...mahs....volts....oh my!!

    We seem to be dancing, yet I don't hear any music. I'm not saying that you can't adjust flavor, amount of vapor, or any other metric of the vape more readily with a .1 - .2 volt adjustment on a VV device than you can be adjusting the draw. I will say that it seems to me that using variable...

    ohm's...mahs....volts....oh my!!

    With a constant voltage device, you can't adjust for variances among or between lots of cartomizers that are often slightly different resistances. With a VV device, you can run a (reasonable) variety of different attachments of varying resistances. With constant voltage, you cannot. Would...

    What are some good VV mid size devices that are regulated?

    It is never my intent to "knock" anyone for anything; judge not, lest you be judged and found lacking (which I am). That said, I think it's fair and in accordance with the Golden Rule to ask questions like "what is the compelling reason to recommend a kGo battery over a Joyetech eGo-C Twist"?

    Please Google "nicotine benefits" and "nicotine memory seniors." A very small part of a large and amazing answer to your question lies within.

    EPIC POST! The "ring of truth", well-written. The grammar and phrasing speak volumes. I tells me that someone who writes that well and clearly also obviously thinks well and clearly. I am keenly interested in what goes on at the molecular level, no matter what the subject. The human brain...

    nicotine and depression

    Antalp, I hear you loud and clear about the "acute episodes". Been there, done that, got the T-shirt. Between the daily 20mg of citalopram (generic for "Celexa") and the nicotine (12mg, eventual target 6mg), I am in a better frame of mind that at ANY prior time in my life. Sharp, focused...

    Hello everyone

    Smitty, you are the most heavily-armed, best-equipped, and most knowledgable "5-poster" I have EVER seen on this site! If I had a nickel for every time I've typed the words "Smoktech 3.5ml DCT tank" I could buy the ProVari factory. You impress me, sir! I believe you 100% when you say that you...

    "So I can understand someone who is using a Fixed Voltage PV and are Happy with it. And I can understand wanting to Recommend something that works for them". That reminds me of a funny little saying my Mom had: "You're not happy, you just think you are". LOL The funny thing is, it can be...
