    Are you done stocking up?

    How to know if you "are done stocking up"....you haven't even opened up the last 50 emails from suppliers for their "special, limited time sales"

    Are torn wrappers really dangerous?

    Ask the question in another way. If the wrapper (insulation) wasn't very important, why does the manufacturer bother with the added expense of installing it?!? Insulation, grommets, strain reliefs, fuses, etc, are all engineered to protect living things from electricity.

    How often do you crave a cig?

    Noticed something last night, watching TV. Character on the show lit up a cig, drawn out scene for dramatic effect, had a craving, thought of "boy that looks good" for a second. Sat back and vaped some more. p.s. I've been vaping in the low teens forever. Only time I've gone to higher...

    Can I microwave my ejuice to speed up steeping?

    Try it, but taste it before on fresh wicking, then taste it again after 3 seconds, rinse and repeat. See if the heating actually makes a difference and how many seconds it takes to make it better (or worse)

    Can I microwave my ejuice to speed up steeping?

    Time is something to try, but it won't always make a bad flavor good, or a good flavor bad. I have some juice I tried early on, then after a week, then a month, then a couple months, then a year, then a few years...nope still needs more time....:lol::lol:

    Can I microwave my ejuice to speed up steeping?

    Ummmm, so try it, it may be good already. If it's not OK, try it again in a few days, weeks months.... Most of my DIY, I shake it up and fill a tank and go, by the time it's steeped there is so little left I have to mix again.

    How often do you crave a cig?

    Yup, way to do it. Vape if your eyes are open (my method early on), worry about putting it down to eat later....:D Once your cravings are beaten for the last time, then just sit back and have a nice vape.

    How often do you crave a cig?

    My first couple years I vaped 30mg - 36mg/mL juice to keep the cravings away. Since then I've lowered it very slowly, always keeping some high-nic around just in case. Guess that was the time the cravings lessened also because the vaping and lower nic persisted. p.s. Whenever I had tried nic...

    Why do we still call them mods?

    Why do we still call them mods?

    Those "Pucks" with CE-2 and MAP tanks served me well for a couple years back in the dark ages...and it was always a Puck, not a mod to me...:lol:

    It will depend on your equipment and the nicotine strength you are using. That said, starting out I vaped near constantly (time outs to eat) every waking minute. After a while I was able to set it down for a few minutes, then an hour, finally much longer. If you need to up the strength of...

    Tank Crackers List

    Cinnamon is one of the flavors usually mentioned. I gave up the flavor before I gave up metal 510 attys or cartos, so never tried it in plastic.

    Tank Crackers List

    I've vaped DIY Root Beer, Lemon, Lime, Orange and Grapefruit in plastic toppers from CE-2's and Vivi-Nova's to Kanger Subtanks, Orchids, Kayfuns, and only had a problem once. It was a CE-4 style (exact model escapes me) and I didn't like it's performance anyway. Tossed it and didn't look...
