    Can someone PLEASE help me find...

    You might want to read this thread: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/diy-e-liquid/239728-houston-we-have-problem-nic-titration-results.html first. There's some question about quality control, and Gourmet Vapor and Box Elder are the same company/same operators.

    WTA is the future

    There's a reason anecdotal evidence isn't accepted in research, and it has to do with the human drive to forget or dismiss things that don't fit into preconceptions. Two years of research into a field like this is nothing - especially when the "research" is conducted by randomly reading posts...

    Travel and Vaping TSA interaction: personal experiences

    I mean air-cooled VW engines are many things, but high torque isn't one of them. Not hating on VWs - I'm helping a guy who has a convertible classic beetle get his engine situated and I told him from the beginning that the engine is a marvel of ingenuity. The ability to unbolt a cylinder and...

    Urgent question: Best chocolate juice?

    There is no universal "best", because flavor is such an incredibly subjective experience. I like Ms T's Bakery, she has several types of chocolate/chocolate mix flavors. My favorite is Chocolate Raspberry, but I've heard very good things about her other flavors. For context, I prefer...

    Here is my "mod" that should be on the way from Madvapes today. Opinions?

    There are a lot of people here who really like the roughstack, but that isn't the point. Whether you like it, and it's going to work for you is the only thing that matters.

    My credit card # is ALL over the internet now, YIKES

    I have to wonder how much you spent on shipping, and how that affected the savings you got by placing small orders at several companies vs. a large order at one company. I typically try to bundle up as much as possible in a single order, so I don't get that $5.99+ shipping charge over and over...

    WTA is the future

    Oh my. Two whole years. Well, I yield to the master, then. Carry on.

    Wow. I guess consistency is overrated.

    WTA is the future

    There's a big gulf - about the size of the Atlantic - between saying WTA might help a little with mood stabilization in a minority of the population and saying that vaping nicotine-only juice will cause psychological problems. The first is no FUD, just logic. The second is no logic, just FUD.

    WTA is the future

    I'm not saying it isn't - lots of people have depression and the effects of smoking on mood have been known for a good long while now. I don't object at all to that, and I'm happy this seems to be working for people. I do object to spreading totally unsubstantiated FUD disguised as concern.

    WTA is the future

    Of course. I read an article by someone who said listening to MP3s 'could' cause deafness to certain frequencies, because the compression of the soundwave supressed those frequencies in MP3s. He had a long, technical rationale for it. He was also a total wackjob and knew absolutely nothing...

    Picky Boyfriend

    Well, obviously his taste buds are messed up, so I think you should get some unflavored 100VG juice, soak some dirty gym socks and dirty underwear in it, and have him try that. His tastebuds will either flip it over and present him with a wonderful sensation, or he'll have a more accurate basis...

    The psychological aspects of the amount of vapor

    For me, vapor and throat hit are equally important. I want to see lots of vapor and I want throat hit. I've tried juices that don't give me much throat hit, and I get this vaguely unsatisfied feeling. I've tried juices that give me great throat hit - like a sledgehammer - but little or no vapor...

    WTA is the future

    I don't have a dog in this hunt - I only stopped in here to find out what WTA was and why it's "the future", but are you seriously trying to sell that vaping without WTA is going to drive me crazy? Because that's the most hysterical, fear-mongering line I've seen in this thread to date.

    Hello - Im new and after some usual advice :)

    When I first started looking into vaping I wasn't as much worried about cost as I was convenience and portability. I wanted something close to the size and shape of a cigarette - without that stupid button I had to press - as possible. I wanted a cigarette that didn't burn. I now carry a PV...

    Outside smoker

    It's been measurable as a very small amount, and nicotine (a naturally occurring substance) degrades very quickly when exposed to air. The tobacco companies did a report about it in strengths used as insecticide - way, WAY stronger than anything we'd be vaping - and it said the stuff lasted...

    New Provari Finish Idea

    I'm thinking something in a nice matte, metallic finish. Maybe like a brushed nickel, or a sand-blasted stainless steel. Oh, wait, I already have that. Never mind.

    Everyone told me this day would come.

    It's worth the wait. Enjoy!

    Metals in Provari?

    I believe the whole body is stainless steel, and the chrome is plated over it.

    Ms. T's Bakery

    I love bacon, too. I can eat a pound of it - I know, because I've done it. But bacon flavored juice is just nasty. I got the Bacon French Toast and had to throw the bottle away. There are people who really like it, maybe you're one of them, but I'd order the small sample size and not stock up...
