    Underage vaping (warning - rant)

    That's true, but how many of the young uns out there think carefully about such things? I'm guessing most people who started smoking young, which is I'm guessing most smokers, didn't think carefully before smoking. I'm not pro-vaping for kids and I'm sure no one is BUT if those teens who would...

    Underage vaping (warning - rant)

    This sentence wins the thread for me just for the mental image! :p

    Would this be considered going backwards

    I remember when I first started vaping with cigalikes the cartomisers only came in one 'tobacco' flavour which was OK but tasted nothing like cigarettes I smoked or the baccy I rolled with. Probably because one of the main attractions in upgrading to a clearomiser for me was having other...

    Underage vaping (warning - rant)

    I totally agree. Vaping is all about harm reduction in my opinion, it's not going to improve your health unless you're already a smoker. How bad it is compared to smoke in the long run is something no one can actually tell right now and it's likely to be complicated to find out with so many...

    Underage vaping (warning - rant)

    Should maybe clarify I don't want cigarettes banned - I just use that argument to face off people who say they want vaping banned, or treated more severely than smoking is. And I refer to plain packaging vape products because that's how cigarettes are sold in my country. It's not something I...

    Underage vaping (warning - rant)

    I've actually had a thought - anyone remember all the scare stories in the early 90s about alcopops? There's many similarities with the 'somebody think of the children' media reporting then as there is of vaping now. And it passed when the media found other things to whip up moral outrage about...

    Underage vaping (warning - rant)

    Very similar issue was in the Times yesterday (paywall) Vaping flavours sold on Amazon dodge rules to appeal to children Now it's not a great article - it doesn't actually have evidence of children buying juice online for a start, and I really don't think teen vaping is a 'thing' in the UK as...

    How did you choose your SECOND everyday vape?

    I never went out of my way to get back ups exactly, it's just that over the years I've accumulated new tanks and batteries and so on when I've fancied trying something new. As others have said there's so many options out there it always seemed a bit boring to buy something I already have one of...

    Up in smoke

    Another vote for the Zenith - it sounds like from what you've put you're after something that mimics smoking more and a mouth to lung tank with a higher PG liquid should help. I use it on 16w with the 0.8 coil and tbh that's quite high for that tank,and even then it's not a particularly juice...

    Innokin Zenith MTL tank--Phil Busardo

    I'm actually writing notes as it's an interesting comparison between two tanks trying to accomplish the same thing but are very different. Solution - change the drip tip. The N2 came with a spare, using it on the Zenith and not had that issue since.

    Back to the beginning

    I couldn't go back to my very first setup because it was primitive stuff you probably can't get anymore! I moved to these MTL things you can still get in some supermarkets in the UK with a brand name '10 Steps' or something which were similar. I wouldn't want to go there again, they were like...

    How Many Smokers in US Using Vaping to Quit Smoking?

    Fair - should never believe every single thing you read anywhere. That said this is one of the more concise but fully referenced rebuttal to the popcorn lung myth so it's why I like to send this link to people :)

    How Many Smokers in US Using Vaping to Quit Smoking?

    I usually find Snopes a reliable and balanced mythbusting source and this is where I direct people if they ask me about popcorn lung blah blah blah FACT CHECK: Vaping Causes 'Popcorn Lung'?

    How Many Smokers in US Using Vaping to Quit Smoking?

    Tbh I've never met a 'dual user', save from people in an initial transition phase (say the first few weeks of buying their own vape). The majority I know stuck with it and gave up cigarettes straight away. I know 2 people who went back to smoking and gave up on the vaping. All anecdotal evidence...

    How Many Smokers in US Using Vaping to Quit Smoking?

    There was something in The Sun (unreliable UK tabloid) that had the popcorn lung myth as the headline followed by a clarification about it's higher percentage in normal cigarettes hidden at the end: Vapers 'at risk of irreversible POPCORN LUNG' if they puff on flavoured e-cigs On the other hand...

    Alternative to Nautilus BVC

    I think the main problem was that because the tank was new it was very stiff. The first time I refilled it the glass unscrewed out the tank along with the cover and juice went everywhere, then I had trouble unscrewing it at all and the third time the coil came unscrewed when refilling, it got...

    Alternative to Nautilus BVC

    This is interesting because already that's what I'm thinking. Bought an N2 today out of interest, and although a big fan of the Zenith 0.8 coils I do find there's a couple of juices that don't agree with it as well as other tanks. It's only been a few hours with the N2 and so it's early days...

    Innokin Zenith MTL tank--Phil Busardo

    Yes I know what you mean I sometimes get that - I've realised it tends to be if I'm vaping in a reclining or lying down position Funnily enough I just bought a nautilus 2 today mainly to compare the flavour differences so will look out for that too
