    Mt. Baker Vapor juice no good after 2 weeks!

    No worries. I've never had a problem with their juices. I'm sure there's more to the story

    Canada E Juice Suppliers that Accept PayPal

    I don't think paypal or canadian credit cards allow it. All the canadian vendors I've dealt with use interac email money transfers.

    Well, you guys convinced me.

    Warning: it doesn't stop there. Prepare for a wallet flush

    Just upgraded tank, what battery to pick?

    The MVP2 has both ego and 510 threadings, so no adapter is needed. MAH means milliamp hours. It determines how much electricity the battery will hold. The higher the number, the longer it will last before you have to recharge it. Your 900mah battery would last on average 8 or 9 hours. The MVP...

    mum's birthday soon - please help me choose an eGo setup for her?

    I agree the Aspire BDC tends to leak, especially once you get down to 1/3 full. However, I find the Aspire ET-S doesn't leak at all even if you vape it down to empty. AND it's glass. AND it's ego-threaded. Perfect for a spinner or an MVP

    Questions and Advice for Dry Burning

    1. I don't know why they'd tell you this. 3.8 volts on a 1.8 ohm coil is pretty well perfect. Use whatever setting works best 2. When the draw starts getting hard, the flavor goes bad, or it starts leaking badly 3. When you first start vaping, your taste buds will really act up. Sometimes you...

    FDA to propose rule on ecigarettes Monday 4-28-2014

    The last thing I worry about is a ban on flavorings. That's an easy work-around. I can see sites selling unflavored juice and also selling pre-mixed "food" flavorings. The real problem is if they make regulations that are so expensive to comply with that only the tobacco industry can afford it...

    Problems with coughing

    Every smoker I've offered a puff to coughs the first time they try it. Remind them they likely coughed the first time they smoked too. You get used to it. For the first few weeks I had to remember to take a smaller puff first thing in the morning or it would make me cough too. I don't have that...

    How come im not coughing up 10 years of crap?

    It probably depends on how efficient your cilia is while you smoke. If it's doing a good job cleaning out the crap, then I suspect there would be no reason to start coughing once you quit.

    feeling on back of throat?

    Vaping is harsh at first. Every time I let a smoker try out my PV, they always cough and choke. For the first few weeks, always have a glass of water with you and drink constantly. Eventually you won't need it anymore.

    Any advice on how to deal with biased health care professionals?

    I'm not sure where you're getting this information. A nurse practitioner is a nurse who has taken extra training and education and advanced to a higher level of nurse who can substitute for a doctor in many ways. Personally, I'd have told this particular nurse practitioner that she ought to...

    Can you really taste your vapor????

    Don't go crazy on juices for a while yet. Juices are a mixture of flavors and you are tasting each separate flavor to varying degrees. As your taste comes back, your juices will taste dramatically different. At some point you WILL load up on a juice you use to love, take a vape, and make a face...

    Please Help Me Decide!

    All batteries have to be replaced in around the same number of cycles. The MVP should last 1 or 2 years. I agree it's a shame to throw the whole thing out, but financially what have you lost? If you use something with replaceable batteries, you need 2 of them and will have to replace them around...

    No case for the FDA or city councils as I see it

    I think this is the reason the FDA is taking so long. They know it's going to be challenged and they're having a hard time coming up with any data to justify their regulations. They're getting a lot of pressure from Congress now, so I expect they'll come up with something a lot milder than they...

    Aspire BDC ET-S gargle

    I have 4 of them and have had almost no problems. These coils are know for gurgling when you get low on juice. I have this problem on the full size Aspires, but not on the ET-S, except every once in a while. Usually just means I have to take the tank off and clean out the well on the battery...

    My MBV orders are steeped automatically. By the time it gets through customs my biggest concern is that it's expired! :tongue:

    Easy, cheap glassomizer or tank other crack-proof solution to go with an iTaste VV 3 (for a total newb)

    The Vivi Nova has 510 threading while the Aspire ET-S has ego threading. I think the ego threading will look better on your VV

    Newbie here need help about Vaping

    Instead of sucking hard and quick like a cigarette, draw softer and longer. If that eases the irritation, then it's definitely dry hits.

    Looking for a straight forward answer

    More VG will produce more clouds. Order with higher VG or simply buy some USP grade Vegetable Glycerin at the drugstore and experiment with it. Vape it straight or mix it with your juices. Add a couple drops of water to thin it.
