    What does everyone do with their "old" gear?

    Gave my first starter set and a bunch of juice to my neighbor and his wife. He's had good luck staying away from the coffin nails! A win for me and a win for him!!!

    My Friend Super X Drifter

    Just got my care package in from HoosierVapes. Built my first coil on an IGO L. Cotton wick. Was going for a 2 ohm coil but it came out as 1.9. I'm an amateur still. Now I'm dripping like a big Dawg! Just wish the screws were just a little bit bigger for these old hands...and that RTD Vapes...

    Provari holder on a budget.

    Had the wife check her hockey bag (she used to play hockey until reality and old age struck) but she was out. I'll just have to put one on the 'grocery list'!

    Why so many members take issue with the FDA

    When you realize that your mother will lie to you if she feels that it would be in your best interest, where does that put every one else?

    Running a Provari now -- a Reo will be my next mod. Just so many new things now (DIY juice, Rebuildables, finding a juice I like!) I'm trying to restrain myself!!

    Provari holder on a budget.

    I was thinking about drilling an appropriately sized hole in a hockey puck!

    Does anyone knows why some people are saying that using EC is dangerous?

    People like to pass on bad news (just as long as it doesn't concern them). People like to look down on others for what they do to increase their own sense of self-importance/worth. People will believe just about anything they are told if that is what they want to believe. Cold hard facts will...

    Yup, I'm blaming him for my ordering an IGO L and an AGA T2. Looking forward to micro-coils and cotton wicks! Excellent threads!!!!

    How much should I support the "Brick & Morter" stores?

    I prefer to buy local whenever I can. These are the folks that help pay the local taxes. These are also the folks educating the newbies and others who just walk in and are interested in the hobby and getting off of cigarettes. Otherwise those folks will have to get their knowledge of e-cigs...

    What's on your Provari???

    Not sexy, just like a little more friction so I don't have to find out how well it survives a fall from my hand!

    Long time vaper who's tired of carrying a mod around looking for a good cig-alike device. Any suggestions?

    cigeasy (808d-1) were my starter/quitting kits. I think their "elite 808" is around 400 mah. I still use them as backups and generally have one topped with a carto in my shirt pocket. Of course if I'm just walking around the house I'll have a bigger mod in my hand!

    Nicotine levels and older vapers, something I find odd. (a little story)

    40 plus years of smoking. Started at 24mg. Then 24mg just for that initial kickstart in the AM and 18 the rest of the day. Then just 18. Thinking my body is going to let me drop down to 18 AM and 16/14 rest of the day. If I get down to zero nic - fine. If not, that's OK too. My war...

    How do you guys mix large quantities??

    Buy bigger bottles? I mix in a two inch deep plastic pan to contain possible spills. Use a 30 mil syringe or there are appropriate glass graduated cylinders. Once you get your recipe all figured out, blend in say a 250 ml bottle. When you want some in a more easily handled bottle, like a ten...
