    Battery Wrapping 101

    I agree. I cringe when popular You Tube reviewers throw in some off brand 18650 battery that I've never heard of with a rating of 40 - 50 amps on the wrap. They need to educate themselves as much as the average vaper, maybe even more so.

    Battery Wrapping 101

    My 24 old son vapes. Out of curiosity I asked him what batteries he was using. (In a SMOK regulated mod of all brands :rolleyes: ) He only knew the color, so I asked to see them. They were some LG HG2's with terrible wraps, and an AWT brand who Mooch said was only a 10 amp battery. We went...

    Hi All New and upset

    I don't think you understand, or you didn't say what you meant to. They aren't banning nicotine e-liquid, but they are banning flavors in vape shops (exception tobacco flavors, possibly menthol). I would imagine "flavor shots" will be outlawed, too, because kids would learn to add their own...

    New York just banned flavored e-cigs, starting immediately

    Most probably will be the end for shops. Shops can't survive by selling only tobacco flavors. Most vapers vape flavored e-liquid and say it was the flavors that allowed them to quit cigarettes. The vast majority of shops get their profit from flavored e-liquid. They usually operate on a very...

    Hi All New and upset

    If you don't know how to DIY your own e-liquid, I suggest that you quickly learn and get stocked up on the supplies you'll need. If you can make a cake from a box, you can learn how to DIY. You can go to our General E-Liquid Discussion to learn how, or do a search on You Tube. Members here...

    California Vaping Ban

    I think that for you, the real issue will be the banning of flavors will be the end of the vaping industry in your state. Then again, if Trump and the FDA bans flavors nationwide, it will be the end of the vaping industry in the US.

    A general rant to clear my frustration... (re: the ban)

    Mark_Slis-Michigan_Testimony-2019-09-12.mp4 Above link works and is safe, the video is just in an mp4 format that doesn't work in ECF media player. This gentleman says it all. How banning flavors will ruin the industry. The highlight was talking about a 78 y/o customer who chose "Fruity...

    BT is NOT Trying to Kill Vaping

    Even when you learn that the FDA receives most of their operating budget from Big Tobacco and Big Pharma? Surely you aren't that naive? There is a serious conflict of interest here. Who Has The Most Tobacco Debt?

    California Vaping Ban

    Oh, I said nothing about ethical or honest politicians, they likely don't exist in today's world. I imagine nearly every politician didn't get where they are without accepting campaign monies, many from tobacco or pharmaceutical companies. Those companies generally expect some special interest...

    California Vaping Ban

    I read today that Trump received half million dollars in campaign money from Big Tobacco. His former health director bought interrests in BT while publically calling for less smoking. Former cabinent members are currently working for BP, BT, or Juul. They are all corrupt.

    BT is NOT Trying to Kill Vaping

    Tobacco cigarettes are stiil more profitable than vaping. Just compare how much we vapers spend monthly compared to what we spent on cigarettes. I think the master plan is to increase tobacco sales by banning vapes, or at least control the vape market, also.

    BT is NOT Trying to Kill Vaping

    It is about money, but not the way you think. Go to You Tube. Search for a video "FDA, living long enough to become the villian". It explains the Tobacco Agreement Act. BT gives the Fda a percentage of their profits every year. Goverment takes that money and buys bond loans and spends it all...

    CALLING ON THE VAPING COMMUNITY TO CONTACT PRESIDENT TRUMP

    I posted a link in The Deeming thread half jokingly. "How's that flavor ban going in Minneapolis?" The link leads you to full blown violent riots in the streets of Minneapolis. I don't know what they are protestng about but it bad.

    Deeming Regulations have been released!!!!

    I agree. That is why I blieve we vapers can make an impact in the election. But then I look at the possible opponents for Trump...wow. They're all pretty slim pick'ms. Lesser of two evils once again.

    CALLING ON THE VAPING COMMUNITY TO CONTACT PRESIDENT TRUMP

    Washington DC has proposed a sort of medical registration to vape. You would need a prescrption to buy gear and liquid. I guess that would be better than an outright ban.

    Vapers crashed the switchboards three days in row. I'm not on Twitter but allegedly the flavor ban is in the top three topics. Can videos be posted on Twitter?
