    Cool Random Encounter in New Orleans (at Robert's Market on Claiborne)

    Bump. I need to find this guy, and thank him. I'm thinking of moving to NOLA soon, and it'd be nice to have a fellow vaper there

    Brother? as in.... lodge brother? or should I refer you to getajobyoudamnhippie.org? lol Tell me, are you a traveling man? Mostly I'm posting to bump this in hoping that "dude" near Robert's on Claiborne will see it. Oh, and for all you damn Yankees out there... it's New Orleans, and it's a...

    Cool Random Encounter in New Orleans (at Robert's Market on Claiborne)

    Thanks, Classwife. Yeah, it was pretty neat. Having a horrible night at work, and all of a sudden a random vaper makes my day. I was stuck there until 1:20 am getting everything working, but meeting "dude" and getting that break to talk & share vaping... well, it made it easier. I just wish...

    Cool Random Encounter in New Orleans (at Robert's Market on Claiborne)

    Yeah, it was kinda like when a 'brother' notices my Masonic ring... like vapers are part of a club with a Secret Handshake (tm). Way cool. I hope "Dude" sees this, because, like I said, I was pretty shy on sleep at the time... and I can't remember where he said he got this carto he gave me.

    Cool Random Encounter in New Orleans (at Robert's Market on Claiborne)

    So, I just had to share this... I just got back from a work trip to New Orleans. I was installing new credit-card readers at Robert's Fresh Market on Claiborne (I work on cash registers). Anyway, some guy in one of the lines says, "so what model ecig are YOU using?" with a smile. I'd been...

    2 hours of normal use. Probably about 10-15 minutes of continuous pressing of the button. That's the only drawback to the 510... look up the Ego or Riva if you like the 510 and want to move up.

    New to e cigs and loving it

    Congrats! The 510 is a great starter. Well, if it's a manual... I used to just put 'em in my breast pocket. As long as you're not leaning up against anything, you're ok. Some vendors sell cases, or a hard-sided case for reading glasses will work. Unscrewing the atty or carto is kind of a...

    Newbie here, just got a 510.

    Um... let's see here.... You've already got a 510. (almost) Everything I've got is 510 threaded. Kudos on the Mega; you've already got something with better battery life than the "stock" 510. There are 2 ways you can go without changing so much that you're "starting over" with all new...

    Newbie here, just got a 510.

    Actually, if I knew then what I know now... and as much as I *loved* my little 510's... I'd probably skip it and go straight to an Ego or Riva. But that's me. For purely technical interest; the Ego and Riva are 510 threaded, but have batteries in the 650-1100mah (that's milli-amp hour, and a...

    Reanimator, Ooooo.... no. Are you asking about the SmokeFree I see advertised on television? Run, do not walk, away from these... You can get a good 510 kit (2 batts, 2 atomizers, charger, some carts) for $40 or less. Yeah, my first model was a rip-off too. I actually had to cancel a Visa...

    I am always amazed at the "OH MY GOD, IT HAS NICOTINE IN IT!!!" people.

    Well, thankfully, the Chinese really don't care so much about what the FDA says. Risky to order direct, yes... but I actually had a Chinese vendor offer... OFFER... to leave out any mention of "electronic cigarette" on the bill of lading. It just mentioned "electronics". They'll most likely...

    Newbie here, just got a 510.

    Wow, that's awesome... I hadn't even thought about a brick and mortar shop. Closest real one to me is in Dallas, I think... good call. Yeah, MJT. It's always nice to see it in person before you buy (or get to try a sample). FreedomSmokeUSA has a good rep here, though I've never ordered from...

    Newbie here, just got a 510.

    Oh, I started at 25mg & stayed there for my first year. I mix my own liquid, so I can minutely control the strength of everything... I'm down to 21.333 mg/ml now... in about another 2 weeks, I'll drop it to 20. If you're in a pinch for liquid (wow, this is like deja-vu... same thing happened...

    Newbie here, just got a 510.

    Too true. When vaping, the nicotine is more readily absorbed by the esophagael lining & the sinuses than it is by the lungs... remember, there's no tar to make it "stick" in your lungs anymore. Plus, hold it in long enough, and you're getting the first steps of "stealth vaping", lol. You're...

    New to vaping, not as good as cigarettes.

    Vaping is definitely preferable to smoking, IMHO. Try getting stronger juice, and experiment with some other equipment. As a general rule, the more a PV looks like an actual cigarette, the worse it will perform & the shorter the battery life will be. My "sweet spot" is a 3.7v box mod with a...

    What is the nastiest ejuice on the market?

    I agree with the "Crab Juice"... can't believe no one has posted a link to this review: Eliquid Review: Crab Juice Flavored - YouTube Sound is a little low, so turn your speakers up some. Believe me, it's worth it. The first time I saw this, I literally cried laughing.

    I'd suggest 100mg nic base for a couple of reasons: 1) makes the math easier. 10ml batch at 8mg nic? 0.8ml nicotine base. 2) it works out to be cheaper... often by a wide margin. Especially when 2b) boxelder chemical supply is having a 50% off sale through Sunday.
