    itaste clk 1280

    I have a couple of those batteries, and the only time I get lots of red flashes is when it wants to be charged up again.

    I so wish I would have seen jj's post before mailing off my iStick, but now I'm in the "waiting" situation. Oh well, at least I have other decent batteries for now.

    Tank for Aspire CF SUBΩ Battery ?

    OK, fair enough. I don't discount that you saw what you said you did, as compared to the pure cotton. I just feel that there's a lot of negativity about vaping, and particularly Aspire, going around right now, and I think a good portion of it is undue. At any rate, when I looked into my spent...

    Tank for Aspire CF SUBΩ Battery ?

    Say what? Your statement makes it sound like an irrefutable fact, but in reality it is not a "fact" that anyone is inhaling bits of the wick with Aspire coils. It is far more likely, that gunk builds up on the coils and then pops loose due to higher power used with the Atlantis. It is...

    Tank for Aspire CF SUBΩ Battery ?

    One other thing. When I inspected the coil that came with the Atlantis, I peered down through the coil and I noticed that the center portion of the coil seemed a darkened color, sort of like the burners on an electric stove, whereas the beginning and end portions of the coil were shiny silver...

    Tank for Aspire CF SUBΩ Battery ?

    I had this same experience. My Atlantis with the first coil it came with was crackling and would spit molten drops of juice into my mouth every time I pushed the button. I had all but given up on the Atlantis because I felt like I was getting a sore throat every time I used it, but my Nautilus...

    Well, my 30W showed up yesterday. Turns out the 510 connector was too shallow on mine, and so none of my tanks (or even their ego adapter) would site flush on the iStick. Today, back in the mail to the vendor--they claim they will either fix or replace as soon as they receive it. Bummer...

    eLeaf iStick 30w and bending adapter

    Just received my 30W, and not one of my tanks will sit flush, all about a millimeter too high, and ever so slightly crooked. For some reason, the 510 connection is too shallow for a flush connection. I have emailed the vendor, so we'll see...

    vaping banned on campus

    But still, if we're all adults, and we're all outside on an expansive campus, then who cares if someone blows a cloud, smokes a cigarette, tokes a cigar, or enjoys a pipe while walking to the car? The real problem is this ban-everything mindset that has taken over everywhere.

    vaping banned on campus

    Yes, and they are, openly. It's too bad that sometimes we have to fight even for rights we've already been guaranteed.

    vaping banned on campus

    Um, this is outrageous on more levels than I have time to elaborate on, aside from that security officer performing an illegal detainment of that vaper. I feel sad for the younger college students now days--the university lifestyle used to be a lot of fun, I really enjoyed being in college, the...

    vaping banned on campus

    These university outdoor bans are the most irritating of all--you pay through the nose to be there, then they make you feel lucky they let you in and then treat you like little children while you're there. In reality, it has no effect on anyone else if someone has a smoke on their way to class...

    What a crazy two years it's been

    I also don't disagree with the OP on all counts, either. I am not a young hipster and I don't feel comfortable wading through them all to get what I need. That's why I just buy online--it's cheaper, and I can take my time to study these things, and also read ECF posts about the stuff I...

    Well, we'll see.

    What a crazy two years it's been

    Sure, I get that. I imagine that it's compelling because vaping offers them the chance to vape without the down side of addiction and health effects. I met a 19-year old guy in a vape shop that was dripping, but mentioned that he had never smoked. When I asked them why start at all, he said...

    What a crazy two years it's been

    Yes, and how many times have they been sent back to drawing board to come up with more reasonable proposed regulations? I think vapers forget that the FDA does not rule in a vacuum, rather there is a process of check & balances. That process is continuing right now, too. I recently read an...

    What a crazy two years it's been

    Um, yeah I do think they care about small business--or at least they care about appearing to care, which can still be beneficial. A big mistake I think nearly everyone concerned makes is forgetting that all those "frat boys winding coils" would probably be smoking/chewing tobacco, or worse, in...

    What a crazy two years it's been

    I think it's precisely the popularity, the continual innovation, the community of vapers, and the ubiquity of vaping now, coupled with the foundation of quitting smoking that will make the FDA's squishing attempts, at least, much more difficult. The bigger the vaping industry gets, the more...

    Support for the initial transistion & 'emotional' breakdown/withdrawal?

    I know exactly how you feel. I've also been smoking for 30 years, about 1.5 PAD, never less, sometimes more. And, you're right, there is a weird emotional connection that goes beyond the chemical side of things. I've always felt that I could live without the nicotine, but then depression...

    Joyetech eGo one setup

    This sounds like the Joye coils may not be as sturdy as the Aspire coils. I've had the coils stay in the chimney of my Nautilus Mini before, and then I just unscrewed them and put them back into the base with no worries.
