    Not sure I can explain why we love purple - maybe because in my mind it equates to Royalty :blush: I was so excited as I opened the package - had my husband shaking his head. His comment - oh my - you are actually shaking :blush: ah well sometimes it is the little pleasures in life that keep us...

    Ordering different strengths?

    I would not order to much at the 24mg - especially if you find you only need it in the morning. I started with 18mg and actually found it too strong - at first. So my second order I went with 15mg and then only used the 18mg when I was having thoughts about smoking. Now at almost 2 months in...

    Well looks like my whining earlier paid off - my Purple Spinner and Purple MT3 arrived today :banana: Ken - I am really liking my Vivi Nova - but I didn't at first. Seemed like it needed at least one tank full and a cleaning - but now it is great. I just got my Mini Vivi Nova yesterday...

    Oh I am so happy - my purple spinner arrived today. Now as a mother, I always told my kids not to whine that it would get them nowhere. So I don't know if my whining earlier made any difference :unsure: but I am just so happy that it is here. Loaded up the MT3 - so far not too much flavor - but...

    Well - I am not even sure if my taste buds are "alive" yet - but I keep trying. :p I usually find that first thing in the morning - but after brushing my teeth (coffee or no coffee) is when I can taste juice flavors the best. Sometimes something I could barely taste the night before is to strong...

    Looks like the topic today is coffee flavored juice. I have only tried one - but it was a pre filled carto and definitely not to my liking. I think I prefer to drink mine - and don't even like it flavored. Although I do have to admit to adding Bailies once in awhile - but it has to be the real...

    Janet, that is a good idea and I will try that. I will probably give it until Monday - since by then it will be 2 weeks since the last update. With the ePuffer kit - the first order came from Toronto and took 4 days. Then for some reason the second order came from New York and it took two weeks...

    Oh Yay I got mail today :mail: in preparation for my heading into the DYI - at least for juice - I ordered an atomizer to drip on 8-o Since I didn't want to just order this one thing from someone else - I went ahead and ordered it from my juice vendor. So of course he is limited in what he has...

    I have lost a few long winded posts - and I had to chuckle because it probably was from taking a little nap :blush: I blame my mother because she could fall asleep anywhere - I even found her hanging up clothes one day - having a little nap :laugh: the worst part was the number of times she set...

    Welcome - to all the other new to the thread folks. Looks like a lot of you have been around a lot longer than I have. I am just happy that I found ECF and this thread. It lead me to the eGo Twist and to quitting - after smoking for 46 years. Lots of great folks hang out here :thumbs: ETA: Not...

    Sleep troubles

    Ok - I have been fortunate - I basically found that I am sleeping better. Less waking up - other than the washroom trip because of all the water - but I just feel I am getting a more restful sleep. Maybe because I am breathing easier? I guess what I don't understand is if a person smoked...

    Hi, New member in Edmonton, Alberta

    bk - I don't actually know dredd0606 - but we have chatted on ECF a couple of times. I just ordered a bunch of DYI stuff last night and I know he is into DYI so I figured if I needed "closer" help I would call on him. I think there are a few others from Leth now too - pretty quick we will have...

    Hi, New member in Edmonton, Alberta

    Welcome all you folks from up north from a fellow Alberta. For the new members - you can definitely do better than those no nic disposables. I am pretty new too and I started just to see if an ecig would help me cut down on the 30 cigarettes a day I have been smoking for over 46 years. Still...

    Welcome jacki and Chap and any others I have missed. I definitely have to give credit to all the great information in this thread. It did take me a while to go thru it all - but in the end it lead me to the eGo Twist. I am currently using the Vivi Nova, Kanger T2 and T3 and occasionally a CE4...

    Ok - distilled water - that one is easy :) Oh and notes - that would be me. I take notes for and about everything - even now that I am retired - I have sticky notes, note pads everywhere. Usually it has been about vacation stuff :blush: but now with vaping it is about different juice...

    Well - I don't see it as a mistake at all. Since Tx started both - and they are both great threads - I personally think it is great to share the excitement of having the #1 viewed thread here as well :wub: In fact if this thread was in the General section too - it probably would have been the #1...

    Ok you have all gone and done it :glare: after all this reading about new regulations and what it would mean. I spend a lot of time yesterday reading thru the DYI sticky's and while I am still on information overload :ohmy: I pulled the trigger last night and ordered some nic base (chickened out...
