    vape apocalypse preparation thread

    If you don't take care of yourself, no one else will. Just saying of course, based on my years of being a realist and hoping for the best but planning on the worse.

    cigalikes to provari to cigalikes

    Just watched a PBusardo review on a new cig-alike. Can't remember what the video was called. Thing that surprised me was he could hold the cig-alike in his lips, just as if it was a real cigarette! He did mention that you only get about an hour of vaping from it though...

    Taking a holiday to mexico.

    Wasn't I reading someplace recently that Mexico has outlawed e-cigs? I'm serious on this folks, not pulling any one's chain..

    Okay this is the Let's Be Honest thread. When you first started vaping...

    I was hopeful. Wanted to get off the coffin nails, would be happy just smoking a pipe. Tried a vaping kit on a recommendation from a nice lady on a pipe smoking forum. Worked for me, relatively painlessly!! Only problem is I hardly smoke a pipe anymore. And I have 50 pounds of pipe tobacco...

    Much Cheaper than smoking... uh... OK.

    Now what was this thread about? Started the vaping path to penury with an 808 starter kit. Then a bigger 808. Then I bought the "mod that won't be named", so I'm done on mods for quite a time. Tried various juices. Taste buds not too good - I blame it on my meds. But I keep trying! Bought...

    Resetting the meter :-(

    That just means you haven't quit YET! You've had a good run at it and now know what to expect from vaping. Continue fighting the good fight and you'll get there.

    Time for a reo grand ?

    I figure a REO will be my next mod. Only thing holding me back is I haven't found a juice that I want to vape long enough to fill up a bottle with! Have 15 'new' bottles of juice sitting here on my desk. IGO L dripper on a Provari. Try a juice, unimpressed. Drip some unflavored base. Try...

    Provari - A review for noobs by a noob

    Good job to the OP! Rest of you maybe not so (G). Why do we get so defensive? We know what we have, it speaks for itself. A little advertisement is all it takes, right? We made our choice, ignore those that haven't (yet) chosen what we have.

    I jammed my thumb

    Hmmm...I'm not a sit-down comedian but I play one on the internet!(g) I hold mine in my left hand, pinkie under the tube, rest of the fingers (on my left hand of course) I have lightly curled around the tube, index finger to fire it. Pretty stable and doesn't interfere with my one finger typing!

    Am I the only person in town who knows what's going on?

    Local vape/RYO/cigar/pr0n/glassware shop. Been in there once since I got off the coffin nails. Don't really know what they have, as they put the vape supplies in a glass counter right in front of the door. Bend over to look and get hit in the but with the door. Figured I had something better...

    Shopping life insurance

    Not that I'm cynical or anything. Let's see if I can explain my logic. "IF" most of the diseases attributed to tobacco smoking become expensive after the insured becomes Medicare eligible and no longer with the insurance company, then the insurance company does not want their insured to quit...

    What to do if you lose electrical power?

    After that big mid-west power failure several years ago, I invested in a whole house 14KW natural gas automatic generator. I can survive with no electricity in the summer, but during the winter this old guy would end up dead! Of course haven't had a power outage lasting more than two hours...

    Do I need a Provari?

    If you are content with what you have, be happy! But contentment can be a fleeting thing. I started with an 808 cig-alike. Got off coffin nails. Upgraded to a bigger (mah) 808. Next upgrade I was thinking of was a Halo Trident V V. All within a month's time span. Was I going to keep making...

    Establishments Banning E-Cigs - 2 reasons

    I'm retired, don't get out much so haven't seen a fellow vaper 'out in the wild'. I'll vape where I used to normally smoke. Haven't had any one get curious or obnoxious. What worries me is some of the videos I've seen of huge clouds that would hide a Naval destroyer. I can readily visualize...
