    Alot of what I am reading in this thread causes me to despair. :( I am new to e-cigs, less than one week now, but in that short time they have changed my life. For the first time in 25 years I have hope that I can finally stop smoking analogs. I have not smoked a real cigarette since Tuesday...

    And it all started so well...

    Hey everyone! I have been vaping for about 4 days now and absolutely loving it. But today I noticed that the taste is becoming sort of bitter. It's not a burnt taste like many describe....it's just....bitter. Some info: DSE901b I have been topping off my carts with Camel High from...

    New video - Re-stuffing M-401 carts: up close and personal

    I tried the polyester filling that Terraphon used, but it didn't work out too well for me. I just can't seem to get it into the right shape and STAY that way. Maybe with a bit more practice... I instead tried washing out the filling from one of the pre-filled carts that came with my e-cig...

    eCigs to be on CBS The Eearly Show - today 2/27

    I tried to post a response to the story, and it said I had succeeded, but for some reason it won't show up. I decided that posting the Summary from the Health NZ study was a good idea, but the text might have been too long and exceeded the character limit....that is my only guess as to why my...

    New video - Re-stuffing M-401 carts: up close and personal

    Terraphon, Thanks for the great video. I went to Walmart today and found a bag of that Poly-Fil you mentioned, came home and followed your video step by step. The results are great....my 901 seems to be smoking better than it did before....fresher taste, easier draw etc. My only problem is...

    Smoke Free Quit Banner

    Lordmage, would you please elaborate? I am not sure which code to add....the BB Code, or the HTML code? Also, I tried adding one of them, HTML I think, but I got a message saying that it is too long. I am only allowed 3 lines of text in my sig, but the code is longer. I tried backspacing to...

    My 1st e-cig (901b)......initial impressions.

    Update! Thanks for all your advice, good people. I'm happy to say that I'm getting the hang of this methinks :D My first bottle of e-juice came today from e-smokeytreats.com.....Thanks for the speedy delivery Phil! Since my carts were causing me some grief, I decided to drip a few drops...

    My 1st e-cig (901b)......initial impressions.

    Hey folks... My first e-cig arrived today. A nice shiny black 901. This is not a review per se, but more a rambling collection of thoughts and observations. Everything arrived as advertised, in good condition, and it was a prompt delivery. Thanks to Phil at e-smokey treats! Now, since this is...

    e cig budget

    Oh boy.... I just bought a starter kit......cost me about $80 from e-smokeytreats.com (6 mo. warranty on parts :)).... I'm already trying to decide which juice to buy, how many extra atomizers I will need to have on hand, what my next kit will be, etc..... The thing is, I haven't even...

    Intro

    Steve, Nicotine addiction has been a horrible nightmare for me. I wish every day of my life that I had never started smoking. I would be very careful if i were you......nobody knows for sure, but I suppose it's *possible* that e-cigs could be a gateway to analogs and trust me, you don't want...

    Nic levels

    So in my research (reading articles online) I've heard that it's estimated the smoker gets about 1/3 the level of nicotine from an e-cig as from an analog. But around here many people say that e-cigs have a higher nicotine level. I'm sure it varies depending on how you smoke your e-cig and the...

    question about liquid/juice

    I am a bit confused. I have been looking at the possibility of refilling cartridges, but the lingo is confusing. Would someone please explain the difference between 'smoke juice' and 'e-liquid'? There seem to be some other names as well: From puresmoker.com there is 'pure e-juice' and 'cash...

    Greetings and a few questions

    Cool....thanks for the replies. If I like vaping, I will probably order a few supplies pretty soon. As far as filling my own cartridges is concerned, you say to order a few blanks, but where do I find these, and are they sure to fit my 901b? To ensure they fit, do I have to order them from...

    Greetings and a few questions

    Hey all, I went with most people's advice and bought a 901 kit from e-smokey treats. I still want something that is close to the size of a regular cig, but if the 901 is a good beginner cig I'm ok with it being a bit larger. It comes with 2 atomizers, 2 batteries, and 10 carts. I didn't get...

    Greetings and a few questions

    Thanks for the replies....good solid advice. Kate...I have been checking out the videos you recommended.....it is a great resource! Keef, thanks for the tips. I have smoked a pack per day steadily for many years. Do you think this warrants 6-8 battery changes daily? As far as the taste issue...
