    Yeah I was eyeballing that one too :) I turned it down because I was worried about the painted threads catching or not conducting properly. I'm glad to hear you're not having any problems with it though :) In retrospect I am glad I ordered the blue one. I have on many occasions nearly dropped...

    Dow chemical refusing to supply Propylene Glycol to e-cigarette industry

    Yeah I think you might be on to something there :) especially with the recent call from Reynolds to ban tank systems. And here I was just figuring that they had no idea what they were talking about and didn't care enough to look into it :laugh:

    FDA Big 3 tobacco makers want FDA to ban vapor e-cigs

    Jman is right - according to the article OP linked, only Reynolds is calling for tank systems to be banned. The other two companies mentioned in the article (Altria and Lorillard) simply want tightened restrictions on them; they are not calling for a ban.

    FDA CDC again grossly misrepresents NYTS e-cig youth usage data to deceive, scare and lobby for FDA deeming reg

    I'm certain they would, that's why so much of this information is kept out of the public eye. It's so strange to read news stories and then compare them to the scientific studies they're allegedly based on, it's like night and day. Most of the information on this issue that is beneficial to us...

    Dow chemical refusing to supply Propylene Glycol to e-cigarette industry

    I thought it was odd that all the negative and fear-mongering parts of the article were in bold :glare: as if to say, don't pay too much mind to the semi-positive information in the first part of the article, because this is all you really need to know (emphasis added). And the last two...

    Effects of PV on Monkeys and Rats by Vapor Administration

    The last few years I went to a big university and I got sick all the time, about once every month or two :ohmy: it would last at least a week, and it always made my chronic cough worse, sometimes to the point where no amount of cough medicine made it possible for me to attend class without...

    New claims vaping leads to hard drugs

    I can attest to that :D Oreo addiction is real, and I am one of its unfortunate victims, for I have been known to raid my cupboard in the dead of night hunting for Oreo cookies to inhale while watching Doctor Who. Sadly there is no cure...

    FDA Outstanding comment addressing 'consumer confusion'

    This is a very, very well-written comment. I appreciate the author taking the time to write such a profound and heartfelt comment :thumb: well done! It is a very painful read. As I go through the paragraphs I can't shake the thought that was this author went through, continuing to smoke for...

    Dow chemical refusing to supply Propylene Glycol to e-cigarette industry

    From the Dow statement: Most e-cigarettes consist of the following: (Summarized from American Journal of Public Health, 2010, World Health Organization, 2013). A cartridge that aids in attracting and absorbing water molecules from air such as propylene glycol and nicotine. Nicotine is an...

    FDA So what might really happen with regulations/bans? Should we be stocking up?

    I'm glad you've been able to use vaping to improve your Parkinsons symptoms. Good luck to you Rico :)

    My mom let me borrow her mvp while my nemesis was being replaced. It was ok... I wasn't as impressed as I could have been. I didn't like the way the button felt or the location of it, and varying voltage and wattage didn't really do much for me - I do fine using a standard 18650 battery with...

    PsychCentral publishes generally favorable article

    I love this article :D I do have one little problem with it though... At the very end of it, they do mention that the FDA does not have jurisdiction over e-cigarettes unless and until the deeming regulations go through, and they state that these regulations will ban sales to minors. They fail...

    I'm glad you clarified that. It did sound very much like the one you recommended was the only one you got from fasttech. I didn't just buy the blue one because it was pretty :) it was just convenient that the option of different colors was there. I got that one because it and all of the other...

    Ok everybody, I get the point. Clones are bad. In fact, I got it the first 500 times I read that on this forum. Why does everyone seem to forget here that I am not asking for super high quality perfection, I am only asking for something that works. Period. I have also read on this forum...

    If all of the parts work as intended straight out of the box, then it doesn't matter. I'm not looking for something that will last 10 years, I just want something that will work straight out of the box without me having to send it back or replace parts immediately, and hopefully it will work...

    Yes that is indeed the problem. :closedeyes: I will have a new mod once my slow boat from China arrives though. Then I'm thinking I might taking this crappy one I have now and remove all the pins and switch material, then line the inside of the top and bottom caps with rubber or something...

    A little OT: someone implied earlier in this thread that MFS sells rewrapped batteries, is that true?? I do have a couple batteries from them, and I want to know if I should be concerned.

    Unfortunately B&Ms are in short supply here. I live in a very rural area (more cows than people), and we have two B&Ms. One is described by almost everyone as "shady," so I've never been there, and the other sells ego style products and hardly any high end equipment (they have like 2 digital...
