    I guess I'm going to have to die sooner than I thought.

    LOL! The reason I asked about the alcohol is I was watching a YouTube vape vid of a guy telling of 4 things you DO NOT want in your e liquid. One was the Diacetyl, alcohol, Caffiene and Whole Tobacco alkaloids. Now, of all of these, I think the Diacetyl is probably the worst. As far as whole...

    I guess I'm going to have to die sooner than I thought.

    Actually, I use alcohol too. Everclear. I actually use it to make my menthol drops. I crush the crystals and fill a dropper bottle with crystals and then pour the Everclear over it and it melts the crystals.......I now have menthol drops....so when I mix my eliquid, I add drops. I never thought...

    I guess I'm going to have to die sooner than I thought.

    I haven't been to the forums in quite a while......I just saw a tweet so that's what brought me back here. I've been vaping so LONG but I have a dumb question, because, although I have vaped for YEARS now, I don't really keep up with much because I'm happy with my setup. I buy 24 mg HUGE bottle...

    From Zmax to Vamo V2 (I hate the Vamo V2)

    OK?? I had the prodigy V2 (which was my first mod) I used for a LONG time. I still have it as a backup........Then I got the Smok Zmax......The only reason I got the vamo v2 was A) it was on sale B) the vendor said it was the closest thing to the z max that I was replacing. They are giving me...

    From Zmax to Vamo V2 (I hate the Vamo V2)

    Yes - the Smok Zmax resets to 3.0 Volts every time you change the battery. That's normal. What isn't normal is after about 2 months of having it, it resets to 3.0 volts without having removed the battery.....For example, I put a fresh 18650 battery in, move it to 3.7, start vaping, perhaps 15...

    From Zmax to Vamo V2 (I hate the Vamo V2)

    Sorry it's the Smok Z max.....I didn't even realize there was another z max! And the z max vapes fine. What I mean by acting funky is it sometimes resets itself to 3.0 v for no reason, and I have to move it back up. But when it vapes it vapes great. For this reason, i decided to get another mod...

    From Zmax to Vamo V2 (I hate the Vamo V2)

    I haven't been on this forum in a long time but haven't really posted or been here very often lately.......I've been happily vaping along for a long time, using different mods over the years and I LOVE the dual coil tank triple punched carto's.....they are my fav......I've used the bolt mod, and...

    Zmax mini extender sleeve

    I need to buy this.........But do you know if this will work with both (2) 18350 batteries AND / OR and 18650 and more importantly, is it stainless? I can't believe they didn't note that in the description...Since I have a stainless z max mini, it only uses the short 18350 battery and the...

    Reducing Nic Results

    I heavily dilute my 24 mg menthol juice by mixing it with pg and vg and just adding menthol drops. I also add a few drops of tobacco absolute. I'm guestimating I'm bringing the nic down to perhaps below 10 mg and I don't miss it. I buy a 250 ml bottle of 24 mg e liquid & by mixing it lasts me 6...

    Vaping + Drinking (Uh oh)

    I quit the very day I got my ecig in the mail 2 years ago next month. I remember the first few days were a learning curve, but definitely better than just quitting cold turkey. I can't remember if I even drank alcohol the first week or two......I don't know......Over time you won't even notice...

    Almost a year ago

    I bought TWO 500 ml bottles of 24 mg menthol flavor from Myfreedomsmoke. I don't vape 24 mg. I mix my own e liquid. I use four things: The 24 mg menthol (50 percent) VG (40 percent) a little tobacco absolute and a few drops of Everclear and a few drops of menthol drops so it doesn't lose flavor...

    My 510 T Experience

    I mix my own menthol juice 12 mg. That's the only kind of juice I like. It vapes perfectly and it didn't take the atty very long to break in at all. I don't know what's considered vaping (A lot) but the thing is with me constantly.....unless I'm sleeping......I just fill a syringe up with liquid...

    My 510 T Experience

    It's been a while since I've been to this forum......I've been using my Prodigy v2 that's over a year old now with the 510 adapter that came with it and doing the blue cart foam for a long time because it seemed to work for me mostly.....I still would have leaking/wasted juice.....I accidentally...

    Straight up Antifreeze in our vapor...more bias reporting.

    I wasn't saying that..............But a LOT of people listen to him and I was shocked that not only the fact that he said e cigs are pure poison, but the fact that he said if you're going to smoke, smoke real cigs, as if real cigs were less dangerous......As a matter of fact, on the wrap up show...

    Diabetes & Vaping

    Nicotine raises blood sugar? Really? That's interesting. I've heard that coffee drinkers run less risk of getting diabetes for some reason. I can't remember where I read that. I know caffeine, like nicotine, is a stimulant. I'm not sure if it's the caffeine in coffee that helped though; perhaps...

    Straight up Antifreeze in our vapor...more bias reporting.

    As I sit here right now listening to Howard Stern on Sirius talking to Gary the ...... who is coughing; Howard was asking Gary if he's still smoking and Gary said he's using E cigs. Howard says to him, "those are dangerous, if you're going to smoke you should be using regular cigarettes, not the...

    Should other tobacco alkloids / constituants be added to e-juice?

    I think that's the reason I strictly vape menthol; it gives me the throat hit that I feel all the time even when drinking. I don't miss smoking at all.
