    How many vapers live with a partner who doesn't smoke and never did?

    Smoked before I got married, and our 42st anniversary is coming up! She never smoked. Comments on how everything in the house smells better, and particular aromas of the liquids. "Is that strawberry?" Damifino, I can't taste it, let me check the bottle to see if that says anything."

    Has anyone else been "chosen to be part of a new e-cig trial"

    I get " The connection was refused when attempting to contact googleads.g.doubleclick.net." My heart is broken! I use "Ghostery", "No-script", a Hosts file, and probably a few other things that I've forgotten about. Can be an annoyance when buying things on the net. These companies think...

    Anyone out there that can't stand flavored juice?

    Every couple of weeks I order some untried flavors. Most of which I can't even tell what they are supposed to be. Using an IGO L dripper BTW. Right now trying a 'cherry cheesecake that just tastes like raw dough. After this I'll vape some unflavored just get the taste out..

    The Table Is Right THERE!

    Part of the cig addiction with me was giving my fingers something to fiddle with while smoking. Sitting here at the computer desk and typing (one finger) I have my Provari in my left hand, twiddling away. Upstairs while watching TV I'll set it down in between puffs..

    Why isn't my rebuildable working?

    Quote "The evic sometimes says atomizer short, sometimes it says no atomizer found." Would it be possible for the center post (positive) on the IGO to have an intermittent defect due to a manufacturing problem? I'm a newbie, but have built three micro coils for my IGO L with no problems...

    Still searching for that ultimate Vape and Juice

    I haven't had much luck on flavors. Possibly caused by my meds. For tobacco I can taste Desert Ship and Latakia. Most other things I can't tell what they are supposed to be. Five new bottles today. Only one that I can definately tell what it is is licorice! Others I have to read the labels...

    Best Pipe Tobacco Juice???

    If you get into DIY, FA Latakia has a nice tobacco (pipe) taste for me. It's three AM here and I can't remember what "FA" stands for. Flavor Arts perhaps?

    RBA n00b in da house :)

    Ok I'm very new to re-buildables so you should NOT take any thing I say as gospel. Far as I know, the juice is not electrically conductive. Haven't tested it with my multi meter, just passing the word (g). Check how tight your ends are on the posts. From what I've read that is a common...

    RBA n00b in da house :)

    Just a piece from a cotton ball. Or you can go and buy a life time supply of "organic" cotton balls for a couple of bucks (g). It doesn't take much cotton at all!

    A really dumb question

    Perhaps if you could find some different colored small rubber bands? Put a rubber band on a juice bottle, and another of the same color on the clearo/carto/topper?

    Atomizers for Provari

    I looked at the E7/E8 billets -- too many on land. Went Warrant Officer. So I went from being a "Bosun's Mate" to "The Bosun". Retired as a W4.. Still miss the life!!

    Query

    I bought an 808 cig-alike. Got off coffin nails. Bought a bigger (mah) cig-alike. Still liked vaping. Lotsa time on the forums. Was thinking about a VV Halo Triton. I liked the 808 because it was less 'fiddling around' (KISS Principle). Too much baffling talk about good/bad/indifferent...

    Atomizers for Provari

    Don't worry about it - us old codgers worked for it! 27 years in the Coast Guard, worked some more then retired into Social Security. The money is there, they just got to stop using it for things that the original SS was not intended for..

    Atomizers for Provari

    32 Gauge also used here. No idea on the size of the airhole, it is smaller than the 1/16th inch drill bit though. Now the economy is driven by consumer spending. You don't want Washington specifically blaming you for another recession,, do you?

    Dripping atomizer questions

    I was using a cheap 510 ATTY. Just got an IGO L in today, built my first coil, used cotton from a cotton ball, and vaping like a champ. Probably took me 20 minutes of fiddling around (old hands and old eyes). Quite pleased with it!

    Why so many members take issue with the FDA

    What was this thread about originally? May I offer a suggestion to close it so I don't keep opening it in error?

    Atomizers for Provari

    If you are into rebuildables. I just got a 'real' dripper in today, an IGO L. You have to build your own coils and wicks. First time I've ever done it and it took me about 15 minutes to build a coil and a wick (piece of cotton from a cotton ball!) and get it going. Pleased with its vape...
