    What's up with all the China hate?

    In the start of this thread, some one asked about U.S. made nic juice. Just received the below from myfreedomsmokes.com. I've had good luck in dealing with the company, so I presume it is not just advertising hype. It does mention made in an FDA inspected facility: Introducing NicSelect...

    "Triggers" and resisting the urge

    I think I would just grab a dried leaf and light that. Might be enough to fool the body/memory with the smell, and then vape for the nic. I like the smell of leaves burning..now it's illegal here!

    What if your power goes out?

    A whole house 14KW natural gas generator. My Nitecore I4 battery charger will also run off a cigarette lighter "Power Source" in my car. I've had the generator for a couple of years. Longest power outage has been a couple of hours. People a mile away on the other hand have had their power go...

    Should I just get a Provari?

    Even though it is a Provari, sooner or later your luck is going to run out. Why don't you get a lanyard or something? It will end up lost, and maybe you'll notice it when you are spreading manure in the spring (G).

    Hi All - from a shaken up Provari AW 18490 battery owner!

    I can see the headlines "Man's testicles blown off by e-cigarette". Just like that poor woman who's thighs were badly burned by the MacD's coffee...

    Should I just get a Provari?

    I had two different 808 cig-alikes. A lot of reading on these forums. Bought a Provari. I'm happy with it, even with my being a newbie (g). If you buy a Provari now, you'll miss buying all of those mods, having them break or you just deciding to try another recommended mod because the one...

    808 vs 510 for fresh newbie

    I believe in the "KISS" principle. I started off with a cig-alike, still use them as back-up, but did graduate to something much bigger (g). There are two major form factors for the connecting thread..808d-1 and 510. 510 is more popular but there are plenty of places that sell 808 threaded...

    DIY Newbie Juice help Please

    Going through this thread has me a little confused (G). A lot of info, perhaps not too easily digested (g). To clarify: OP has: 36mg/ml nic liquid, with 50pg/50vg Red hot liquid at 75/25 PG/VG. This is a 'ready to vape' juice, not a concentrated flavor. wants: 12mg/ml nic level 50/50 PG/VG...

    Provari... never would have thought...

    Nothing wrong with that! I always preferred a mode of transport that if something went wrong, I had enough time to call for a tow and just wait for Triple A to show up. (G). I've scrambled a boat more than once when one of my air borne brethren weren't too sure they could get back over land!!

    Second guessing...

    What ever works for you! I'm sitting here with a provari in my hand with a carto on it. Right before that was an 808 with a clearo and a different juice. Before that was another 808 with clearo and a third juice. I rotate through, don't care if I impress any one. I just put the provari...

    Kit,,,,,,or no kit??????

    When I recently got my Provari, I ordered the Nitecor I4 due to many recommendations here on the various forums. No problems yet. Ordered from RTD on a friday night, shipped on saturday morning, and here on monday! I was amazed about that!!!!

    Provari... never would have thought...

    Mad Dog 20 20! Many a happy time with that! None of that Chateau Ypres 1967 stuff for me...

    What one thing that really changed your vaping experience for the better

    Newbie here! Reading all this from you old fogies (G). And I remember driving cars that had clocks that ticked. Started with an 808, then a bigger (mah) 808, then a Provari (why screw around, might as well get it over with now!). Just started DIY juicing..no luck yet. My taste buds aren't...

    Any Tar flavor ejuice?

    Thought this would be a joke thread (G). Only joke suggestion that came to mind was to lick the wall of a bar that hasn't been painted lately (G)!

    Vaping Is Not Going Away.

    Nah, two whites to kill my bone marrow, a baby aspirin, and a brownish one for my blood pressure (g). Just a crotchety old retired guy who has found out that you can't trust any one any more. When you realize that your mother will lie to you when it doesn't fit her 'agenda', where does that...

    can of worms?

    My opinion. We all know the joke about 'opinions'. If a business is for 'adults only' then there should be no minors in that establishment. No kids in smoke/vape shops, bars, strip clubs, casinos, tattoo shops, etc...

    Vaping Is Not Going Away.

    They know we are stupid. We believe rumors wether pro or con to what the reality is. A pol says something one week and something different the next week and we don't remember it. If the 'news' is against that pol then they will run the conflicting clips and have a panel 'discussion' on it...

    Should we boycott businesses that ban vaping in their establishments?

    It's their business and they can set the rules for their business unless the state passes a law making their 'rule' illegal. This state is "no smoking" in most places now-a-days. Bar owners screamed about it but lost. Tax revenues for cigarettes and liquor are down and the state can't figure...

    These Provari's are addicting

    I just got mine a week ago. For some unknown reason I find this thread worrying (G)!
