    Need help finding a good vanilla

    Ack ... I'm in the same boat. Been waiting weeks, but it's not showing up. I'd appreciate some recommendations too! Thanks! Jan

    HELP !! Night Sweats and insomnia.... 5 weeks now ! :(

    I would definitely mention it to him ... my guess is he'll run your thyroid blood work to make sure that lowering your nicotine intake (and removing all those nasty other chemicals in cigarettes completely) hasn't changed the dosage necessary for your meds. I'd also keep that nicotine as low as...

    HELP !! Night Sweats and insomnia.... 5 weeks now ! :(

    This sounds like hormones to me ... according to a quick search nicotine reduces estrogen levels essentially by binding to estrogen receptors making the cells unable to absorb as much as they may need. If you are vaping like me (pretty much 24/7 while I'm awake), it sounds like you might want...

    Favorite V4L Battery

    I really like the new Diamond Series even though they're auto. I was initially exclusively a manual battery girl ... but now that I've gotten pretty good at not overfilling my cartos, I'm finding I like the autos better. I've got a red and a blue Diamond, both with white LED. The white LED is...

    That type of non-compete agreement is essentially industry-standard ... no matter really what type of specialty industry you happen to be in. This is a very good question, indeed. Why aren't government employees with this type of likely conflict held to the same standards as the rest of us...

    How many uses or refills are you getting from your cartos?

    Wow, that makes me feel a bit better. I don't get nearly a week out of a cart. Mark, if I may ask, how often do you top off? I've been pushing it a bit too far recently and going through cartos faster than I'd prefer. Jan

    While I am not a soccer mom, I am a Mom ... and how I parent is my business not the government's. Oh yes, I forgot ... it's all about the children. I'm starting to think this guy is an FDA/BP lacky. Jan

    No, actually you have the right to take your child(ren) somewhere where they won't be exposed to the things that you find questionable. What parents expose their children to is entirely in their purview ... has nothing to do with my right to a healthier alternative to combustible tobacco. Jan

    Is it normal?

    I would have called mine hot ... in my experience this can be due to overfilling (flooding), too frequent use, or due to a need for cleaning. I usually attributed my experience to one of the first two ;) Jan

    Please people, don't be this guy [Passenger Removed From Flight]

    Except the researcher, himself, took part in the discussion linked and admitted that he would change his approach to his testing methodology for any subsequent testing he performed due to flaws in the approach used in the topic research study. In another thread irrc, he discussed ordering a...

    Almost crying.

    Haven't gotten to the end of the thread yet ... but all of the suggestions I've seen so far are good ones. One I will add though is to lay dryer sheets about (e.g. Bounce). I've used this method to remove the smell from a car by cleaning the ashtray and then placing a sheet in there ... and...

    DC Court of Appeals rules against FDA 3-0 and in favor of NJOY

    While I respect your right to your opinion, stop being a kill-joy. Whether or not you consider yourself a smoker, do not presume to speak for me. I haven't been a smoker for the last 362 days and this decision hasn't changed that fact one iota. Jan

    Expected life span for chargers?

    If this could get a response from V4L personnel that would be wonderful, as I've been wondering myself if there's an incompatibility of some sort between older chargers and newer batteries that's starting to show itself. Jan

    Expected life span for chargers?

    I have used a dry q-tip on one of the usb ones, and I did get a little bit of dark stuff on the cotton. The interior post contact seemed to move as I tried to clean ... is it supposed to/is that okay? I was afraid to get too aggressive with it, as stated I'm experiencing a shortage of chargers...

    Expected life span for chargers?

    I've recently had my original wall-plug charger and both my usb chargers stop charging. The original wall-plug was ~9 months old, and the usb chargers were ~6 months old. I had some older batteries that began to not hold a charge around the same time, which have been replaced. I'm trying to...

    WOW, why does that evaluation actually give me a little bit of hope ... in a couple of different respects! Thanks Vocalek, for your evaluation and everything that you do for this important cause. Jan
