    Looking for RTA that vapes kinda like Nautilus

    As a 4 year veteran of Kayfuns i can honestly say that the SXK Doggy style RTA is perfect for MTL (and -very- restrictive Lung vaping). Coiling and wicking is a breeze, no leaks, no dry hits. It's a faff to refill because you have to unscrew the Top cap but that is the only negative for me. Got...

    Official ProVari Procyon Page

    It was a huge fluke ! I rarely visited the Provape site but the last time i did there was the gold Procyeon for $99. I thought about it for a bit because i didn't really want gold then hit the Buy button (thinking i could wrap it). I think this was a week or two before they closed up. Now i have...

    Official ProVari Procyon Page

    Provape sold the gold Procyon for $99 at one point. That's when i snagged one. Add the $40 postage and the import duty of $30 to that and it was still cheap compared to UK prices. Last one i saw for sale in the UK was $300.

    mg per ml?

    10MG e-liquid is 1% nicotine. There are still some e-liquid makers who label the nicotine in their juice as a percentage; 1.8% = 18MG (per ML). Scarily there are even some makers who get confused. I have seen 2.4% (24MG) eliquid advertised as 2.4MG. I vape 5ml a day of 1.2% (or 12MG) which...

    Occasional chest pain?

    Ninja'd by Alien... I ignored my sporadic chest pains right up to the day i had my heart attack. Doctors first, vaping website second (a good rule for life).

    Oh my goodness, Provape is no more!

    Then i am pleased for you. I have had 3 Segelei mods, a Kanger mod, an ipv mod and countless '$25' mods stop working for no discernable reason. They are mass produced factory products and designed for quick obsolecence. Denying this is not rational. Provape spent a lot of time in ensuring that...

    Oh my goodness, Provape is no more!

    If the FDA is the sole reason for Provape shutting up shop then that is unforgiveable. I believe equally to blame is the current attitude of a lot of new vapers; they want the biggest at the cheapest cost. (I know a lot of vapers who use 70-100 watt devices with 12 watt atomisers). Chinese mods...

    THANK YOU, ProVape

    This is a sad day (and totally unexpected), i started with the v2 which i still use every day. My heartfelt thanks go out to Provape for providing me with the means to stop smoking. I can honestly say that without my Provari i would have struggled to kick the habit. :(

    New to vaping, lungs feel tight?

    Forget about the nicotine content and the ratio / flavourings until the basics are covered. Start at the beginning. You didn't smoke and now you vape; how many ml do you vape in a day ? I.E. how much liquid are your lungs trying to process...

    bored so I polished

    Whatever mod you do next; Put the chisel down and try using wet and dry paper instead ! Certainly look 'industrial' if that's what you were aiming for. :)

    Omg -all the eliquids I'm looking at max at 6mg - I usually vape48mg! HELP ! :)

    I share your pain. It is becoming nigh on impossible to obtain high nicotine liquids in the UK. I tend to buy the nearest i can get and then top up with nicotine base.... The TPD has restricted eliquid to a max 20MG strength but a lot of vendors are selling only 0, 3 and 6MG liquids. Great for...

    Funny comment from smoker

    'OMG, popcorn lung' is the latest comment i've been getting (guess it must be being rehashed in the tabloids). It's always from smokers. My days of trying to educate smokers are over since i've realised the're just looking for an excuse not to switch...

    Why don't more vapers use TC?

    All but a couple of my mods have TC capabilities but i rarely use it. I guess i have just got used to controlling the heat by the draw i use. In my limited experience TC seems to favour those people who take long draws. I typically never take a toot over 3-4 seconds. Plus a LOT of mods are just...

    Nicotine deactivated at high temperatures..?

    I was lead to believe - by something i read many years ago - that the nicotine from a cigarette is not from the actual burning tip but from the hot air being drawn through the tobacco....

    Non-Smokers .... Vaping

    I sort of miss the days when people used to ask me 'what's that ?' when i took a chug of my cartomiser sat on a ProVari..... Now all i get is 'where's yo clouds, is that even working ?' I blame the vaping yoof.

    Non-Smokers .... Vaping

    Once upon a time i would have said live and let vape. Unfortunately it is becoming a bit of an issue with me now when i see youngsters (anyone under 30) blowing clouds in my favourite watering holes. They annoy the sh*t out of me. In answer to OPs question - it doesn't bother me that non smokers...

    Kamry Micro - a good successor to the eRoll?

    I've used them and was pleasantly surprised by the experience (especially at that price point). The big issue for me was the lack of a PCC...

    E-Roll Replacement - Running out of options

    It's a shame you're in the US. I bought up 6 kits from TW when they were virtually giving them away. I have no use for them anymore. Sorry, that wasn't much help.... You could try 'Alchemy Z5 100mAh Rechargeable E-Cigarette Starter Kit' at FT, they have good reviews..

    Sub-ohm 12 vs 18mg

    I started on 24MG/18MG a few years ago and weaned myself down to DIY 12MG after 3 years ! I recently wicked up a Wine RTA, coiled it at 0.5ohms and filled it with ready made 18MG liquid. Vaping at 20watts.. Whoah. I was light headed after two puffs. I thought i was Nicotine tolerant but...
