    A" tool to quit smoking" becomes a "hobby"... Your story...

    Long time trying to get off of cigs. Decided to try the 'e-cig'. Something for my hands to fiddle with, oral thing for the lips, 'smoke' for the lungs, nic for the addiction. Worked for me. Amazed and pleased!!! Just ordered a hundred bucks worth of supplies for DIY liquid making. A habit...

    New to dripping atomizers. Haaayulp!

    I use an 808d-1 battery system. A cheap 510 ATTY plus an adapter (less than ten bucks for the two). Put in a couple of drops, vape. Before it goes dry, a couple more drops of liquid. "Flavors" will carry over from one sample to another but you'll get the idea. KISS principle works for me...

    Took my son to the Zoo today with my PV and...

    I'm an adult. I may not be 'cultured'. I may be vulgar at times. I may be irritated at times. I may be anti-social at times. I do try to be calm, cool, and collected though. Someone comes up to me, my intent is to educate. "This is what this is". "This is what it does". "This is not...

    What kind of cigarettes did you smoke?

    Luckys, Camel straights (unfiltered), then Camel filters, then Camel lights, then RYO when the state doubled its excise tax.

    Enslaved to organized crime syndicate and “Self-Medication” dealers

    When I started my military career it was a buck for a carton of butts. When I quit (just recently I'm afraid to say..or actually I'm quite PROUD to say I quit recently!) it was a buck Federal and two bucks State tax per pack, plus six percent sales tax on the tax! Greedy basticches!!

    Newbie needs advice on which starter kit to purchase.

    I'm a newbie. Lots of baffling terminology and combinations. I wanted some thing simple to start with -- prefer to learn to walk before having to learn to run (G). I would recommend an Elite 808 starter kit from CigEasy.com (they have a forum on this site). That's what I'm using right now...

    I ain't a quick learner either, but kick me in the teeth enough times and I'll start catching on! (G)

    Newbie going to try DIY liquids

    Thanks. D/l'ed the "e-juice me up" program and ran it before pulling the trigger on my order! Great program..answers my questions before I ask them. I've been using 80/20 pg/vg mix. Perhaps I'll leave the nic base as is..just like to be careful, especially when new to something..just cutting...

    Newbie going to try DIY liquids

    Newbie here..808 batts, cartos, clearos, 510 atty for dripping - just to show off my experience level (grin). Haven't been impressed with any of the flavored e liquids that I've tried, though my taste buds are starting to come back after a life time of coffin nails. Recently ordered a 125MM...

    Your Method for Sampling E Juice - Equipment/Ease/Cost Effectiveness

    I use a cheap 510 atty with an adapter to fit my 808 threaded manual battery. Less than ten bucks (rounding up) for set up. Pop the cap, a couple of drops of liquid and sample away!

    eBay Batteries

    As they say, you get what you pay for. Problem is with ebay what you get might not be what you think it is (poor copies, old merchandise, mis-represented merchandise, outright fraud). Look through the recommended seller lists on this forum and for a few dollars more get something that you'll...

    How long before you notice the benefits from quitting analogs?

    Many expected things pointed out in the above posts that are improvements. One of the most important things for me was the increase in my sense of self worth. I had been trying to get off the coffin nails for years, being weak, unable to break the habit, about the only thing I've really wanted...

    Is there anything worse?????

    Remember the Boy Scout motto "Be Prepared"! I've just started and already have six batteries with chargers and 'spare' everything. If I wasn't retired, I would have emergency supplies (bats/charger/cartos/juice) stashed in my car & desk for just in case!

    Poll: E-cig or PV?

    I'm with you there. "PV" tries to get away from the stigma of "cigarette"!

    Did anyone transition into vaping from smoking RYO tobacco?

    Ex-RYO'er. Had the PV in my pocket for awhile - just occasional hits. Ran out of RYO tobacco..instead of trotting down to the store decided to give the PV a good chance. That was mid June for my last coffin nail. Still smoking a pipe, but I'm off those #$%^ cigs! Vaping Desert Ship but I...

    Thanks for the reply. I'm no longer in the "money burning a hole in my pocket" demographic so I'm not sweating it!

    Ecig Vendors piss me off

    Screw me once, shame on you. Screw me twice, shame on me. I read recommendations and then read what is on the seller's site. I am not interested in cheapest or trying every new seller. I'm looking for quality and dependability, both in the product and the seller. If they meet my expectations...
