    Silly QOD: What's in the exhaled vapor?

    But it does. Nicotine is a naturally-occurring compound, and it degrades in the environment. If it didn't, we'd all be swimming in nicotine residue from the tens of thousands (millions?) of years plants have been producing it. This isn't directly applicable, because it addresses nicotine in...

    Provari pre-order # ***please post when yours ships so we can keep track***

    Yeah, that's pretty much how it goes. And after a week of vaping with it, you'll start thinking I should really have a black one, too. Because black just goes with everything....

    The big blue "Post New Thread" button at the top of the page didn't stand out for you?

    Airport and Mods

    I've traveled all over the country with my ProVaris, and haven't had a problem at any airport (at least not with my e-juice, I'm still bitter about them seizing my contact lens solution). Tips for traveling with juice: Before you get on the plane, squeeze the air out of your juice bottles and...

    OK, so how much money have you spent so far???

    I don't have an exact total, but I'd be somewhere between $1500 and $2000 in the last 6 months. My break-even point (where I stop being in the negative and start saving money) is in my banner, and I think it's in August. That doesn't count the sick time I didn't spend this winter with my annual...

    Provari pre-order # ***please post when yours ships so we can keep track***

    Nah, they'll probably send you that old one that kicked around my garage until I returned it. It worked, mostly, though. Hehe. Of course it'll be in mint condition, and if you have any glitches, they'll take care of it. They always have. But most of them don't.

    Vaping...More harm then good? For me yes...Im done!!!!!!

    I think the problem tends to be that people are changing several things at once, and they don't know what is caused by which (if any) change. Quitting cigarettes gives one set of reactions, and it can be very different reactions depending on how long someone smoked, how much they smoked, etc...

    I want my money back!

    And wrong. I've got a ProVari (two of them, actually) and I'm using those cartos on it. They work great - probably the best carto I've used. I have a question about consistency with one of them, but I'm guessing I'll find the answer is a thicker juice or I've done something wrong. Of the 6 I've...

    Help me with my 1st order! :D

    I'm a hard-core Apple Pie fan, have been since I tossed a bottle into an order, just to test it. But, I have to admit, when I'm swapping flavors it's a tough choice between Apple Pie and Snickerdoodle Cookie. That's some seriously good juice, right there.

    Vaping...More harm then good? For me yes...Im done!!!!!!

    I would agree with you, if it had actual information and not baseless hysteria. There's a deplorable lack of scientific thinking in this whole thing. One thing happening after the other doesn't mean there's a link between the two, and too many people don't seem to get that. What we really need...

    You want reviews? Here ya go!

    If you've never heard her, pick up a disc of Don't Go To Strangers, her first album. It's her version of a lot of the old standards - and she's amazing. Definitely didn't get the props she earned.

    Woohoo!! Go Ms. T!

    Yeah, her order processing time has really dropped. I've still got two bottles left from my last order, and I'll be ordering more here shortly. I guess it'll steep while I finish up my last order.

    Proud new owner of a Provari, have a question.

    You'll get weirdness with other batteries. They don't put out power as fast as the ProVari needs, and it trips the protection circuit on the PV. I've always stuck with the recommended batteries.

    Proud new owner of a Provari, have a question.

    Mine has done something like that a couple of times, but it's been when I mistakenly put a drained battery in, instead of a charged battery. It wouldn't fire and when I hit the buttons to get the display (to check the atty and battery) it wouldn't display anything. I'm going to back up the...

    About to pull the trigger on my first order with Ms. T's

    I've never steeped my juice, and the Ms T's has always tasted incredible.

    Unhappy Provari customer

    Yeah, I kinda figured there were parts left out of the story. This is a lesson both ways - some electronics will have problems, and the ProVari isn't an exception to that rule. And some people will never be happy, no matter how well they're treated.

    ProVari in the car?

    My car has an adjustable cupholder. When I pull it in to make the cupholder smaller, there's a slot in the arm that just fits a ProVari. So mine rides in the cupholder. If you want to make something easy, just get an ashtray insert for your cupholder - they sell them at any auto parts store -...

    5 months... slipped.. and smoked 40 analogs

    Guilt is pointless, just learn from it and try not to let it happen again. Obviously, smoking those cigs didn't solve your problem, they just added a layer of regret on top of whatever it was. I did something like that a few months ago - had a situation that went straight into the toilet and...

    IKV 510 Mega LR carto question

    I've limited myself pretty much to Ms T's juices. They're thicker than a few I've tried, but not by much, and a lot thinner than others. She doesn't release her PG/VG mix (proprietary info), but I'd guess it's about 60PG/40VG. I'll bleed some off into a smaller bottle and try adding a bit of...
