    Another new guy!

    I took the long and expensive road getting here. 7-11, bogus websites and all. My fir real setup was a couple Manual XL batteries from V4l. That got me going in the right direction. I've since moved on to bigger and better things. I found that I had no desire to smoke almost right away. I...

    Noob saying hello

    Hi and welcome :) Good job on the quitting. I used 36mg for a long time and just recently cut back to about 24. It not only kills the craving, it kills the interest too. Take care and good luck

    Pre veteran thread (2011)

    Hey all I believe today is my one year aniversary on this forum. I wanted to stop here and thank all of you for the advice, humor and, most of all, support. I had smoked for over 45 years, tried, and failed, to quit several times. Realistically, I never thought I would quit and really just...

    What Am I Doing Wrong?????

    Hi Tippyclubb and welcome to the forum :) I was out a couple hundred when I finally found this place too. The good news is, now you know it's possible to stop or cut back. You can get a quality setup that will be, more or less, trouble free from about $30 on up. There's lots of support here and...

    Hello! Newbie with a bunch of silly newbie quetions

    Hi Punky and welcome to the forum :) There's a Canadian section off the forum home page. You'll need 5 posts here first (that happens fast). There are juices available from 0 to 36mg and even higher. You'll probably need 12mg or so for a throat hit that would mimic a cigarette. I was a heavy...

    Back to the analogs!!

    Hi Try not to let this little setback get the best of you. You have one of the best fat type battery setups around. When you find the right cart/carto/tank and a juice or 2 you like you'll be home free. I've tried just about everything that will screw onto an eGo battery and, other than...

    OMG I made the near perfect carto tank !!!!

    Here's a thread you might like: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/general-e-smoking-discussion/220756-homemade-syringe-tank-mod-looks-easy.html A bunch of like minded "grown-ups" doing the same sort of thing. Seems like fun to me and I might have to try it myself :D

    New to this, Nasty liquid

    NoSmoke 300

    Good morning and welcome to the forum :) I looked around there too. Not a good idea at all. Before you "Act Now" you should read a few posts and a couple stickies at the top of the forum. There are tons of better options right here that won't cost you nearly as much and will work infinitely...

    e-cigarette petition on We the People

    I signed up and signed it tonite. Still under 1000 sigs on it. We need to rally here
  18. rwnielsen

    Thanks/Question

    That's pretty funny right there :) You might try a cartomizer, standard resistance. They tend to run cooler that an atty/cart comb. I get a burning on my tongue sometimes if I'm not careful

    aghchipping!!? is it normal...o.O

    Hi and welcome to the forum :) I would contact them. Sounds like the plating is flaking off, could be hazardous I suppose it's possible they could make their way up through the cart/ carto Hopefully someone with more experience with that model will chime in Good Luck
