    One of my red dragon batteries is defective. It worked ok the first time, but now it simply will not recharge. I'm sending it back, as they say they'll replace it for free. I also bought another battery from LeCig. It's black, so that's cool. Something a little different. I was going to buy...

    Wow, sounds great Bass. French Toast, huh? Mmmm! How do you like the 9mg nic? What are you used to vaping? I'm on 6mg now (using the cartos that came with the red dragon kit.) But I got 12, 18, and 24 juices from velvet vapors that I'll try out as soon as these first cartos go empty. Does 9mg...

    Momma Getting Headaches

    1 gallon of water a day? Yikes! I'd rather not vape if I had to drink that much. I hope these 'dry' symptoms don't last forever. I've only been vaping for 3 days, and I haven't noticed any strong withdrawal/side effects other than a bit of a dry throat. I plan on upping my nic level, and vaping...

    I hope I don't have to constantly drink something forever while vaping. That would be a real pain in the ...., especially with how dry it gets in the winter. I really hope there's a nice pg/vg ratio that works out for me. Time will tell. That's cool you play bass. What kind of music are you...

    After about 30 hours of vaping experience, my throat is quite dry. That's one negative thing I noticed. You think it's just the PG that's doing this? I hope so, because maybe I could switch to mostly VG sometime soon. The thing is, I do like throat hit. I don't want to give up that feeling...

    Thanks for the info Ropetrick. I will take a look at the dehydration issues associated with vaping. So far, I've only noticed a dry feeling in my throat, but no overall dehydration to speak of yet. Again, I've only vaped for about 28 hours so far. If I find any new info on dehydration, I'll post...

    Thanks Shan! Wow, you smoked and have Rheumatic heart disease? My goodness. I think it's great that you exercise as much as you do. Hearing about your lung capacity improvements really has me optimistic about the upcoming months. I don't consider myself very 'hard core' about working out. I know...

    Glad to hear the Dragon it's working well for you. I like mine so far. I've only had it for 24hrs. I smoked 2 analogs during that time: 1 this morning, and it was good. Then 1 at lunch, and it tasted awful. I think they'll start to taste even worse as I vape more, so that's a good thing...

    Wow, Red, that's great. That's the kind of info I was looking for. It's nice to know your cardio improved. I would guess everyones cardio results would improve, but you never know. We are, after all, inhaling substances into our lungs that probably shouldn't be there. But I am happy to hear that...

    Hey everyone, I'm a pretty active individual. I play multiple sports, and I'm in the gym 7 days a week. When I was a full time cigarette smoker, I was able to maintain this workout routine while smoking 8 cigarettes a day. Yes, I knew smoking was bad for me, but I found it hard to quit. I was...

    Nicotine Levels, need some help.

    Good point Curlygirl. I usually take a couple of quick primer puffs to get it warmed up, then on the the third pull, I drag longer. That seems to produce decent vapor. I'm awaiting the arrival of some higher nic juices too, so that I don't have to smoke analogs anymore.

    Hey Bass, I can't remember, but you're also vaping the Red Dragon, yes? I'm pretty sure that's why I friended you, so we could throw ideas back and forth. How's it working for you? I got mine in the mail just yesterday, and it's been going ok so far. You making your own juice? -Odyssey

    Two quick questions...please help the noob.

    Thanks for the links! I now see what a passthru is, and I don't think I'll be needing/wanting one just yet. I've only just started vaping a few hours ago. StormFinch- You've been answering a lot of my questions lately, so I thank you for that. I checked out that link, and might give them a try...

    Two quick questions...please help the noob.

    Thanks basilray. My Red Dragon came with a usb charger. I can charge it on my computer, or put the usb into the wall charger and charge that way. I cannot vape while it's plugged in. Is my usb charger considered a passthru? And what's the use really? I heard it may give a stronger charge than...

    Two quick questions...please help the noob.

    Hey all, I tried searching this site for the following information, but I after a while, I realized I should just ask. I recently purchased the Red Dragon, (KR808-D2, or E9 model). I searched the 'model specific' forum, but only found one for KR808-D1 models, nothing for the D2(E9). I'm...

    Do you still get the buzz from nicotine ?

    Results here seem pretty mixed, although they lean towards the 'non buzz' side. My first e-cig arrives tomorrow (hopefully) and I was wondering this exact same question. I tried my friends 6mg last weekend. I too admit that it doesn't 'feel' like an analog feels. That being said, I puffed on...

    Hello Folks! :)

    Welcome Mac. I'm in the same boat, although I didn't smoke as much as you. The fact that there is such a huge, dedicated subculture devoted to vaping is really a plus for me. Everyone here seems genuinely interested in helping each other out with tips and information. You've stumbled on to...

    Noob from NY

    Nice, yeah once I get to vaping, I'll know exactly what I like in terms of VG/PG. They have a 'Velvet Blend', which I guess is their signature blend. Have you tried that before? I can't find the PG/VG ratio of the velvet blend listed anywhere on the site.

    Noob from NY

    Hey coz, I'm from NY as well, and just ordered my starter kit too. I went with the Red Dragon. I like the fact that it's a super-mini. Plus my buddy vapes Greensmoke, and the cartos are interchangable. I ordered a sample pack from VV as well. How long did it take to arrive? Just curious...

    Organic VG

    I wouldn't ask for a refund or anything like that. Kat makes sample packs readily available. They're inexpensive, and easy to order. Perhaps you should have tried a sample pack of the organic VG first. FYI- I laughed when you wrote "hamster bedding." That's funny. Maybe velvet vapors should...
