    New to DIY

    I love Capella. Several of the Capella recipes here taste like my KBV faves. It's forgiving for us noobs and single-flavor mixes have better flavor than most of the juices I've purchased. I goofed mixing several weird flavors together and am slowly learning which flavors play well together. At...

    Hi New from Ohio

    Hey Rick. Welcome. Pretty equipment. Did you do that or buy it that way? Looks like an expensive pen. Agree on the fun of vaping. It's a hoot learning all this new stuff and trying juices and supplies. Bank account advisory: Beware of the classified section on ECF. There's too much fun to be had...

    what's with all the kr808 hate?

    No hate here. Just prefer 510 threaded equipment to lessen the stress in my life :) Any ecig that helps a smoker transition to vaping is a great ecig.

    Kinda confused on Joye Ego T (kinda long post, alot of questions that need answers) ECF vets your wisdom is needed

    I'll try to be short with an answer. That's hard for me :) Tanks can be finicky but are wonderful for many users. Type A is more narrow and has more leaking issues than type B. There is a goober you can buy to fix the type A leaking if you've already purchased. If not, I'd suggest type B...

    Best recommendations for a total newbie?

    He's a noob and asked for simple. He'll get a nice hit with a Volt or SmokTech kit and can save it as a backup when he upgrades. An eGo is great for a little longer-lasting battery but there's a warning about using low resistance supplies on it (many do anyway). After learning here that it could...

    Best recommendations for a total newbie?

    510 manual cartomizer kit from smok tech $27 great kit. Comes with 5 cartomizers. I'd suggest a 510 Drip tip and an extra box of regular resistance cartomizers (5 to a box) for $6.50. Juice is 50% off at Gourmet Vapor They sell little samplers. You can try a lot of flavors in small...

    Started vaping last week without success

    Glad you didn't give up. That says a lot. If you need cigs along side your PV/ecig for a bit, no biggie. Excited to hear when it arrives and how it's going for you :)

    Can anyone tell me if this company is legit?

    The tip in the picture is a rubber condom over the end, not part of the ecig. Hoosier ships to Canada but you'd need the blank cartos or they might not make it to you with nicotine. This is the best kit I've found that has a long cutoff (12 seconds), no microphone in the auto or manual and made...

    Good cartomizers for 100% VG juice

    There isn't such an animal (yet). Best you can do is thin out your juice with distilled water or pure grain alcohol to work with a carto. Try it with 3ml of your juice adding water or PGA a drop at a time and write down the % if it works. No carto can deliver the flavor of dripping. The stuffing...

    Can anyone tell me if this company is legit?

    When you buy a backup kit I'd suggest a 510 threaded 2-piece (cartomizer/battery) kit. As you progress through the different equipment and supplies your stuff will be interchangable. That'll save some $. It's a Beta/VHS type thing going on and 510 is ahead of the pack. This kit with cartomizers...

    freedomsmokeusa.com?

    I'm not a fan of their juice but shop with confidence there often for other things. Great prices on AC adapters, supplies, etc.

    Ashtray Flavor

    +1 for K3vin. PureCig is the most disgusting, ashtray tasting ejuice in all the land. You can have mine (seriously).

    Better than EGO T?

    My experience is tanks = leakage. I've tried all I'm aware of except the JonBoy tanks (on the wait list). Maybe a bottom or top feeder would be a fit for you like a GLV3 from GreatLakesVapor or Reo Grande from ReoMods? If you like the Fat Batt class ecigs/PV like your eGo I'd suggest a KGO...

    Anyone Vaping No Nicotine?

    Congrats on being smoke, tobacco and nic free. Wow. Good for you. I've only been vaping 8 months. I stressed over lowering my nic too soon and jumped back up to 18mg. I have 24 in case of a cig crave but don't need it often. I've just started vaping 0 a few hours a day. I got into DIYing in...

    New to vaping. Love the ECF forums!

    Welcome Koma. Glad you didn't give up with the slim mini kit. Way to go :)

    Pictures of your setup

    The boxes hold batteries. Mods can be a tube design or a box. Some have juice delivery on board, inside the box. Squeeze the little bottle and it pumps a dose of juice into your atomizer. Different strokes :) If you're happy with your ecig you're doing great!

    Why do some people fail at vaping?

    I'm really glad you came here rather than lighting a cigarette. I hope you find your answer. Cartomizers, fluxomizers and supplies with plastic tubing or filler material make me cough. I think I'm allergic to the stuffing/filler in cartomizers and sensitive to something in the plastic tubing...
