    Help, I don't think I like the brand I bought

    Here's the thing with batteries: The smaller the battery, the shorter the battery life. There's no two ways about it, it's physics. In order to get a battery that lasts all day you have to get a fatter battery - about the size of a smallish cigar. NOW, that doesn't mean you have to get a...

    Things you wish you had known when you started vaping.

    • It's not un-cool to like only one or two flavors, there's nothing wrong with that. I didn't have to buy about 100 gross flavors, because I still like the standard marlboro or menthol copies that I started with even after all this time. • I'm not a "bad vaper" just because I don't like to...

    Hi! I'm new and hoping for some advice

    On their website it looks like the highest mg juice they offer is 16mg. Most vapers use about 24mg. A different kit would help, but higher mg juice might be just the ticket too. I've heard great things about the Go-Go, never tried it myself but it's on my list. It's a bigger battery model...

    How did I do?

    :thumbs: Sounds pretty good to me. Here's my only *hmmm*..... • once you start refilling you'll find that you won't need quite so many spare cartridges • you must be super careful when refilling if you are using auto batteries because any moisture that gets inside can kill them • you'll want...

    how fast did you get off tobacco?

    I got my e-cig around 5pm and had a few cigs that night while I was tinkering around with the e-cig. The next morning I had another cig with my coffee just because I was afraid that the e-cig wouldn't be enough to keep me sane. I decided to just see how long I could go that day without smoking...

    Fellow drippers: How often do you blow out your atty?

    A. probably a couple of times a day or so... B. either the vapor drops off (oops, flooded it) or it gets dark and funky looking C. never (unless it's already a lost cause....)

    Frustrated... contemplating giving up, but too stubborn to throw in the towel... yet. Please offer ANY and ALL suggestions.

    It sounds to me like you are one of us that is as addicted to the additives in cigarettes as to the nicotine itself. Tobacco cigs contain "free base nicotine"; it hits your system faster and is more effective in providing a quick high. E-cigs just can't do this. One thing you can try is to...

    Throat hit question!

    Throat hit question!

    You won't become more addicted to nicotine by vaping -- even if you use higher mg nicotine than you are used to. For one thing, we are only absorbing a fraction of the nicotine that we inhale (somewhere between 10%-40%). For another thing, tobacco companies add stuff to the mix to make it...

    How does 100% PG juice vape?

    On rare occasion, some people really are allergic to VG.

    Why is Dehydration an Issue?

    They remove water not just from the air but also from your body. So you have to drink more water to replenish the water you are expelling.

    Old Member Returning - Few E cig Questions - What Model Do I Have ?

    Basically the 510 version uses 510 accessories and the 901 version uses 901 accessories. There are hundreds of 510 accessories you may like to try eventually, but not much in the way of 901 accessories. So for my money I'd get the 510 one. With that one you can try cartomizers, cartridges...
