    blue aquarium foam?

    I LOVE the blue foam. I've only been vaping for a few weeks, but I grew frustrated with the stock filler almost immediately due to wicking problems and bad taste. Straw mod didn't work all that well for me (it increased vapor, but not wicking, would still get dry taste with 1/2 cart unvaped)...

    When 510 atties die...

    If you have a good 510 atty that's lasted a while, no problems, how does it usually die? *POOF* dead, or is it generally more gradual, with decreasing vapor production over time? Just wondering because I'm still on my first two atties, and one of them was basically doa so I've never seen one...

    Day one with my vaperator

    When you get a new atty, blow out that nasty factory primer! Put your lips around the battery end of the atomizer (the end with the threads) and blow through it into a paper towel. Keep blowing until you don't see any wetness coming out, and then blow more. Then take the corner of your piece...

    New Burnt taste, atty not dry?

    It was cleaned before I cut it and put it into the cart, and it was a fresh piece of foam, I had just made the cart. Using a horizontal spring at the lip inside the cart, and just a blue foam plug. Can fit 15-16 drops up to the top of the spring, and vape it completely dry before I get any dry...

    New Burnt taste, atty not dry?

    *UPDATE* I didn't notice anything floating in the Crest Pro-Health mouthwash, but I did notice that the color changed to more of a green color. I changed the mouthwash 3 times, and after the 3rd time (each time I let it sit for about an hour) I rinsed in hot water and then used a can of...

    New Burnt taste, atty not dry?

    Been using a spring + blue foam mod on all my carts lately, and they vape like a dream. Been getting awesome vapor and can vape a cart down to the last drop before I get that dry atty taste. But just now, while vaping Strawberry + Chocolate (which I've used before with no problem) I suddenly...

    Equipment boxes / cases

    I picked up a nice CaseLogic gps case at Target yesterday. Was expensive for a reinforced canvas case ($20), but it fits everything so perfectly that I couldn't resist. Has a mesh pocket that fits all my bottles of juice (a 40ml, 2x 20ml, and 2x 10ml), and then I have a bag of 6 carts, spare...

    Home, work, school, and Walmart

    So I got my first pv ever on Friday, a 510 from Nhaler (thanks for great service Drew). First off, having explained it to my parents, with whom I'm living for the time being, they had no problem with me using it indoors, even though neither of them smoke. In fact, my Dad, who hates the smell...

    How long and how much to draw?

    You're not going to be able to vape like you would smoke a cigarette, because your atomizer will get too hot. I generally take 2 or 3 drags, let the atomizer cool down, then take 2 or 3 more, and that gives me the same satisfaction that a cigarette would, without the nasty taste and smell that...

    Any good Cyber Monday deals out there???

    Not specifically for today, but MyFreedomSmokes.com is running a buy one, get one sale (buy one 10-40ml bottle of 0-24mg flavored juice, get one of the next smaller size free [same flavor or different]). Haven't gotten my juice yet, but from what I've read Chris does a very nice job making his...

    Best technique for throat hit on 510 manual batt.

    Couldn't agree more. If you start sucking away at the same time you push the button, the atomizer doesn't heat up nearly as much, and therefore you get less vapor. Also, if you're sucking too hard and not getting the atomizer hot enough, you'll probably end up flooding the atty. ~CTdl

    Best technique for throat hit on 510 manual batt.

    I can't believe nobody noted this, but if you want a strong throat hit, do a direct inhale. Don't puff the vapor into your mouth first and then inhale, just inhale it directly (like breathing normally - you don't suck air into your mouth and then inhale it, you inhale it directly; do the same...

    Raspberry Frapaccino 24mg

    The taste of this juice is very nice. Got my first pv ever (510) from Nhaler the other day, and chose this flavor and HV Cafe Mocha Tobacco for my free bottles. And while the taste of this juice is very nice, a nice mild, sweet raspberry and coffee flavor, I was very disappointed with the...

    NHale/XHale Juices

    I just got my 510 kit from Nhaler the other day, and got a 6ml bottle of Raspberry Frappucino 24mg and a 6ml bottle of High Voltage Cafe Mocha Tobacco 12mg. The HV juice produces thick clouds of vapor, but I was getting a mediocre vapor off the regular juice. However, I added around 20 drops...

    PV and Juice Suppliers by Area?

    Is there a list of all of the suppliers on this board that lists their location, which one could use to search for a local retailor? I couldn't find any such list here on ECF. I tried searching on Yahoo for a local juice retailor (in Connecticut), but because all of these sites have a form...

    No Health Warning on Ecig

    The only thing I think requires a warning label is juice. There's a lot of stupid people out there, who don't realize how potent some drugs can be, including nicotine. 40-60mg can be a fatal dose to an adult - these are miniscule amounts compared to what some members have on hand at any time...

    Placed first order

    Made my first order with MFS this morning, having just gotten my first pv ever, a 510, just yesterday. I don't care too much for the coffee-based flavors I chose from Nhaler, and one of them barely puts out any vapor, so I'm really looking forward to trying these juices. Placed an order for...

    Whistle tip alignment vs. atty

    Thanks for the replies. I figured the way Robert suggested was actually the correct way, but if you look at the bridge of the atty only it would suggest that the cart would go on the other way. I thought about filing the cart down as well, but I'm getting really good performance out of it now...

    Whistle tip alignment vs. atty

    When I'm putting my whistle tip carts on, how should they sit in relation to the atomizer? I got a small melt on my cart from vaping too fast and probably from having it in wrong position. Should the long edge of the cart be parallel to the bridge, with the under-bridge-wick perpendicular, or...

    liquid in the mouth

    Since putting a proper straw mod (messed the first one up) in my 510 cart, I'm no longer having ANY issues. I didn't take off any of the filler, just added the straw in as the 510 Straw Mod video suggests, and I no longer have any issues with juice in the mouth or any bad tastes or lack of...
