    Birds and Vaping (bird owners please read)

    I'm glad you were able to know it wasn't right for you; not everyone does, and there are a lot of mistreated parrots out there...at least as many as there are well-treated ones, sadly, I think. Amazons and the large birds are difficult to care for properly -- and a lifelong commitment (40-60+...

    Birds and Vaping (bird owners please read)

    Cheers to you for erring on the side of caution around such delicate creatures! And yay for birds. :) They are much smaller and more sensitive than dogs or cats, for sure. Some things that do not induce toxicity in humans/dogs/cats, such as small amounts of Teflon fumes or mild...

    Health Concerns From A Medic

    Or, print/show him the post at the top of this page, from an MD and harm-reduction researcher: The Rest of the Story: List of Identified, Known Carcinogens in Electronic Cigarettes vs. Conventional Cigarettes, and Which Anti-Smoking Groups are Telling Smokers to Smoke As far as nicotine intake...

    where can you buy pure nicotine??

    Unless you have years of experience handling hazardous chemicals, and understand the full laboratory setup (more than just a suit and tongs) required for reducing the enormous risks, do not mess with pure nicotine. There are people here with that kind of considerable background who still would...

    FDA names Tobacco Scientific Advisory Committee

    'Evidence' to them means published studies. Our anecdotes don't really count in the research world. (I'm as convinced as you are about the benefits of vaping, but testimonials are not taken as the criteria for efficacy...and generally in medicine, that's a good thing.) In the US the FDA report...

    FDA names Tobacco Scientific Advisory Committee

    I think the only remotely 'good' news in there is, as Bill Godshall pointed out, these selections are not relevant unless and until the FDA classifies PVs as tobacco products. But out of curiosity, I did a publication search on the chairman, Jonathan Samet. If interested, go to PubMed and type...

    What's under your lip/in your nose right now?

    forgot the important part! Snus: Not regularly now...I come back to the General Mini Mints on long drives when I need to relax. Seems that without whole alkaloids/relaxation from snus I'll either smoke or drive like a maniac...well, more of a maniac...but that's only once or twice a week at...

    What's under your lip/in your nose right now?

    OK, you got me back with the group hug. Though with enough of us it's going to look more like a scrum. Sounds like dark times for many here. Back at a very low point for me. Would be bad enough on its own, but also dealing with addiction relapse in a loved one. TV...your whole post was...

    Apologies...

    I've found it pretty pleasant and refreshing to buy from a straight-shooter with clear policies. Or so say the >20 bottles of TV I have opened since November. ;) Take the time you need to focus on operations and core stuff, and maybe even (gasp) relax a moment or two. We'll still be here.

    Apologies...

    If you ask for a special exception from a business, you have to accept that maybe they won't fulfill it....especially if it's explicitly against their policies. The no-sample thing is a very clear policy on his website that he's had to defend here on the board in the past with good reasoning...

    Bad cartomizer?

    Almost all KR808d-1 cartomizers are manufactured by Kanger as far as I know. So the variation among suppliers is not going to be drastic (though their return policies may vary, I'm not sure that any will take returns on cartomizer packs that have been opened). But there's one difference I've...

    Think E-Green?

    Check sources, then think. Sample of that crap you're wondering about: Synthetic polymers in the marine environment: a rapidly increasing, long term threat The pollution of the marine environment by plastic debris: a review Increasing frequency of plastic particles...

    Hello! Green Smoke? Kinda long, so TIA!

    GreenCig and Greensmoke are two different models -- not compatible. The Greensmoke is an E9 as NOptionsGuru said; some parts are also offered by Nhaler; I'm sure you could search the forum for other E9 suppliers. I would avoid the Blu. Some people like it, but...it's just not that popular of a...

    Stonewall swallowing?

    A few people do get muscle spasms or irritation (i.e. hiccups or heartburn) from swallowing saliva containing nicotine, but if it doesn't bother you, then go right ahead. Swallowing the saliva never bothered me with the Commit lozenges, but that's about the only good thing I can say about...

    Introducing Nhaler High Voltage Octane Liquids-10Mg 100% USA MADE

    Edited for clarity It's true that d-nicotine is quantitatively much less active than l-nicotine (animal studies here, here, and here), but l-nicotine is what we should have been getting all along, correct? Drew, I'm not sure where you are getting the information that e-liquids commonly...

    Where Can I Get A......? Your Favorite Vendors for 901 & 510 Parts...

    I've always been pleased with Jason @ Electronicstix ... gotten 510 and 306 parts (genuine Joye) from him, but he also sells DSE901s (and Rath juice). GoodProphets, another good one, has a whole variety of adapters at 3.99. Most vendors are able to answer if they stock low-bridge or high-bridge...

    Chilli heads?

    If you find a good online source for the peppers, do tell. For the fresh ones, seems you'd have to wait for the July-November harvest. The dried flakes I found here, tempted to order. The seeds are available in a bunch of places, but the soil temperatures required are way too high to try...

    Where can we find the 'purest' flavorings?

    If you want to avoid colorings, Faeries Finest offers some very good flavors in "clear" versions (quite a few of their flavorings not marked as "clear" are also colorless, such as apple, blueberry, and peach). I find their fruits very good, if a bit mild (need to add a higher % in DIY, that...

    Emergency: Wisdom Tooth Extraction Help

    So your concern is about vaping during recovery? (Sorry, I'm not familiar with wisdom tooth extractions...yet, at least. Still young and waiting for the next x-ray to tell.) You could also try either the nicotine patch (for a steady dose) and/or nasal snuff (for a quick rush; check out...

    Chilli heads?

    Naga Bhut Jolokia. Rock on. :) I heart capsaicin. My daily sauce is Huy Fong sriracha liberally used on all savory foods, but I'll often spike eggs or chili with something truly atomic. The unfortunate thing is that it's hard to get ahold of truly hot sauces that aren't jacked up with pepper...
