    ROLL CALL: Where are you from?

    I was born in Macon, GA (USA), but I've also lived in Florida, Tennessee, Pennsylvania, Colorado and Utah. Moved around a lot as an IT consultant - mostly corporate, but a few defense contractors and one gig for the NSA. I'm now back in Georgia, trying hard to recover from Cervical...

    Night vaping habits?

    I hadn't thought of it before, but yeah, I go through more juice after the sun sets than I do any other part of the day. I've always been a night owl, as some here may be able to tell from the timestamps on most of my posts. I'm in the Eastern US time zone, it's 2:38AM, and I'm definitely...

    Even if it doesn't, you won't find nearly as much help anywhere on Earth as you will in this forum to get your new vaping rig working to your satisfaction.

    My first post!

    Welcome J.R.. and Frontliner0. As Taowulf pointed out, we're always glad to hear of someone who has kicked cigarettes in favor of vaping. More power to you both! :)

    First vapes to buy question.

    Hi, and welcome to ECF! :) I'm still too new to vaping to recommend anything in particular. So far, I've only tried Blu, The Magic Mist and Halo. Halo is my favorite so far, but The Magic Mist was quite good as well (I got menthol flavors from both). The Magic Mist also does something I...

    Two Types of Laziness That Influence My Vaping Choices- Auto vs Manual rigs

    I've seen limiters on almost all the cigalikes and mods that I've looked at. The bigger rigs have timers that are 10-16 seconds, from what I've seen, which would be more than long enough for most vapers, I would think. But I agree with you about wanting to be in control of your hit duration...

    I have alot of questions but

    Speaking as a beginner who will want at some point to get into coil rebuilding, starting a thread pointing out to beginners how to avoid common mistakes in that area would be great. I've never been particularly good at "electrical math". I realized that when I was doing residential...

    Oh my God! does BS spread FAST!

    As did I. I don't abide liars. Never have. In conversation, credibility is EVERYTHING. Ignoring that fact makes communication irrelevant.

    DIY eliquid lasting longer than normal?

    Did you get the "Self Auto Fill" option with your Aerotank?

    Favorite Juices?

    Me too! I vape it straight sometimes, but usually SZ is too strong for my ADV. I mix just a bit of it with Halo Menthol ICE - 2 drops per mL. Perfection! (For me, anyway.) :) I know it doesn't sound like two drops per mL would be very detectable, but as I'm sure you know, SZ is some...

    Hi, New Member Here Who Needs Some Help!

    Hi Shawnna, and mazel tov on getting your problem fixed! The people here at ECF are, indeed, extremely helpful. I'm still a newbie, myself, and I'm still using off-the-shelf brand vaping gear (Halo Triton). Haven't gotten into mods yet like you have. Planning to soon, though. And I'm sure...

    New to the Forum!

    Those kinds of noble stories are the ones I like to read the most here in ECF. All of the friends I'm still in contact with quit smoking long before I did, otherwise I'd be doing the same thing. I've never had what I would consider actual "selling" skills. I've always been more of a techie...

    Relapsed last night, got some new coils in the mail this morning...

    I agree. Keep the faith, dudetheman. Like others here have recommended, having an extra battery in your pocket will help you tremendously. When I'm out with my Triton VV rig, I always carry a fully charged, standard Triton 650mAh battery with me. It's only three inches long, so I can hardly...

    What are you waiting for in the mail?

    So what happened? Did you drop her on her head? From what I hear, they're not very durable without the optional thicker skull.

    Placing My First Order Monday

    I second that emotion. I was SURE that my Halo G6 kit was going to be the only equipment I'd need, and I'd only be buying juice and blank cartos from then on. Yeah, not so much. I wouldn't say that everyone will end up spending a lot more than they ever planned at the beginning, but I sure...

    What are you waiting for in the mail?

    @jhelliwell: That Stingray is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen. Man! Just when I think I have my head around the extent of "vaping gear" available in the world, I see a whole new side to it. When I started vaping, I never thought I'd be getting into art collecting, but between...

    Tips for refilling Halo G6 cartos?

    I agree. I thought going from cartos (G6) to tanks (Triton) would give me more or better flavor, but all I can really say is that it's different - not better or worse. I had to reformulate my juice mix when I went to tanks because the flavor was, for lack of a better way to describe it...

    What are you waiting for in the mail?

    I have no idea what a Stingray or a Loki are, but they sound awesome. Maybe you could post some pics when you get them, eh?
