    how to dry atty faster! help - smoking real cigs

    If you have a hairdryer with a "Cool" setting, you've got a faster solution there, too. (Hot settings might work for short bursts - really don't want to get the metal scorching.) Hmmmm....other sources of forced-air drying....snowblower? air compressor? Definitely stock up on attys...

    Vapor making me cough?

    quasimod's got it spot-on, I think. it was a two-week learning curve for me to keep the attys juiced without burning them and getting nasty burnt smokiness (or flooding them). other ideas.... Quitting/reducing smokes can also you hack up a lot ... just your lungs clearing out now that...

    just got an ecig, incredibly disappointed

    I believe he means Joye510 (it's made by Joye and not DSE). Definitely worth looking into for vapor + throat hit. Cignot.com is a good and popular seller for first-time 510 buyers as they have a cheap no-box kit and also have a wide range of liquids. For longer battery life you'll probably...

    Anyone placed an order with Heavens Gift lately?

    I placed an order with HG on 12/04 with EMS shipping and haven't seen anything other than it's cleared to leave Shanghai. Considerable delay... Update: It was delivered yesterday. (Yes, Christmas day. Had no idea the USPS would deliver. I asked the carrier and he chuckled and said he's...

    can u use rubbing alch to clean atty?

    Another vote for safety. I use Efferdent or vodka; Everclear can work too. Then a hot water rinse or soak. Blow out, drain and dry overnight is what I do. I do use isopropyl (alcohol wipes) on the outside of my attys or batteries to get grease or juice off, but never the inside or where my...

    Who makes your favorite juice?

    One more vote for TastyVapor. Butterfinger and Cafe Mocha are fantastic (50/50 VG/PG is the way to go). Almost everything else just tastes...odd, now.

    Feet swelling

    I've made two -- one at my place and one at my boyfriend's -- but they're not aesthetically appealing at all! (Nor are their settings...basements.:p) One was a give-away treadmill from a friend and the other I bought on Craigslist for $75. On one I used a sheet of Plexiglass and on the other I...

    Tasty Vapor - Amazing

    Likewise. I doubt your attys are actually dead 'n gone -- probably clogged. I like doing an overnight Efferdent bath and then a hot water rinse, but you'll find a million atomizer cleaning ideas here. Bottom line, don't give up on the attys!

    Finally got my PV!!

    Congrats! (and yay for geeks. :D) I can't stand sweets for the most part, and sweet cigs were always nauseating, but now I prefer to vape the non-tobacco flavors. Sounds like you got a tasty start, and from a couple of good vendors!

    So - are we getting it or are we not - nicotine

    I think respondents have been indignant at the suggestion of a placebo and certainly not at you, TBob. (I've been cut down like crazy on other forums when I show evidence that GABA or certain other supplements do nothing. While it's very clear in this case we're not just getting a "placebo"...

    Feet swelling

    Dehydration can cause edema (water retention), so drinking water's a good idea. (Alcohol can also worsen edema.) Exercise can help a lot, even just walking. (I have a treadmill with a homemade laptop desk on top. :) Miles a day while I vape and surf!) Get your thyroid and glucose/insulin...

    Pronouncement: KR808D-1 = Kreight!

    You are the Sultan of Sly Sobriquets and the Czar of Clever Cognomens, Don, lord of BoomVape. We bow. I almost kroasted my kreightomizer, I was so entranced by this thread.

    Cartomizers at 5V

    Cartomizers shine at high voltage. Keep them juiced and drag for less than 2-3 seconds and you won't burn them.

    Do e-cigs stink up a room?

    This is a concern to me right now, cause I'm home for the holidays and my mother is very sensitive to smells. I've been vaping in the least-used room in the house and keeping the doors shut, but she says the smell leaks out and she's getting some eye and throat irritation. :( I've been vaping...

    Help An Overwhelmed Newbie!

    The atomizer on the 510 also gets quite hot if you vape constantly. In both cases you have to space yourself a bit more than if you were smoking a regular cigarette and could constantly puff. You get used to the rhythm, though. In terms of refilling: The nice thing about KR808d-1...

    Which Ethyl Maltol...crystals or 12% liquid?

    I'm afraid I can't answer your question, but who offers Ethyl Maltol crystals? I know that Menthol comes in liquid and crystals, but I've only seen Ethyl Maltol offered as a liquid...

    Help An Overwhelmed Newbie!

    Welcome! Sound advice here (it'll always be varied and conflicting ;))... If you go with the KR808d-1/Vapor King, keep in mind that you can also get parts and cartomizers from a number of good vendors (Nhaler.com, GoodProphets.com, Electronicstix.com, and so on). Vapor4Life, who makes the...

    So - are we getting it or are we not - nicotine

    Interesting to hear your experiment with the "liquid smoke" idea, TBob - thanks for sharing. (And why am I not surprised that you've already been there/done that/got the dang T-shirt? ;)) Wow.... This would contradict my experiments with a blood pressure cuff and heart-rate monitor while...

    Three Tasty Vapor Flavors

    Glad that is sorted out. All friends here, right? :) Just returning to the TastyVapor liquids themselves... there's been some talk of wanting to try out TV flavors before buying the big bottles, despite the low price. So I've started up a thread in the Sampler's Club social group. Jump in...
