    Excited and Nervous at the same time

    YAY for YOU! :) The Ego batt is a great beginning. I coudn't make 'the switch' until I got my first Ego-T. Although leaking was a major PIA, I eventually moved away from the 'T' and got some clearomizers to put on the Ego batt...and the rest is history! From the first vape, I KNEW I had found...

    new and trying to figure out a setup that works for me

    March 11, 2013: New York State Supreme Court Judge invalidates Bloomberg's ban one day before it was scheduled to take effect. I oppose 'nanny' government, and strongly encourage OP to NOT begin smoking cigarettes in order to qualify for acceptance within 'the vaping community'. Although I'm...

    The math is staggering!

    I keep track of vape expenses in my signature. Everytime I buy something, I add it to the total. The amount I've spent since September 24, 2011 includes two starter kits given to friends, plus almost 50 flavors for DIY. BTW...when I started DIY in November 2012, the expense has really dropped...

    How many of you still smoke analogs occasionally?

    From December 18, 2009 to September 25, 2011, I smoked and vaped occasionally. Never could make 'the switch'...until I got better hardware, upped my nic level to 24mg, and found some BETTER flavors! Since September 25, 2011...NOPE, I don't smoke; not even tempted now. After 32+ years of...

    Where is my cold?!

    During my first 6 months of vaping, I took a very bad cold. Even so, I continued vaping, but while I was recovering, THAT's when it began to feel as though the nic level was too high (24mg). I cut it 18mg, but over the next month, I lowered nic levels to about 12mg before I finally felt 'comfy'...

    The "Concentate Combinations to Avoid " thread.

    Am I getting new ECF ads, or do I have a virus?

    I have Malwarebytes already installed. Thanks for the reminder. I'll run it tonight. ;)

    Am I getting new ECF ads, or do I have a virus?

    THANKS to ALL above! I read the linked discussion, but couldn't find any add-on in my browser. So, I 'reset' Firefox...and so far, seems as if the problem has been resolved. THAT was irritating...but was a relief to know it was NOT caused by ECF. :)

    Am I getting new ECF ads, or do I have a virus?

    For about a week (maybe more), when I visit ECF and click links, an additional page will open trying to sell me something ecig related, or wanting me to sign up for a FREE STARTER Ecig. I don't come to ECF to get ads for junk, and whatever is causing it, is also slowing down my browsing...

    Evic or Provari?

    I've tried the Provari and I liked it, but I'm the kinda guy who likes a bit of variety. Although I might someday buy a Provari, my current PV arsenal is totally satisfying AND enjoyable. I got the SS Vamo V2, and the Evic just after New Years, and LOVE both. I probably lean slightly more toward...

    Not much now, but 5 days with NO analogs

    YES...'cept it was the Ego-T that first gave me success. (Ego-C came around a few months later.) My first PV was a 510 cig-a-like that just wasn't powerful enough for me. Better hardware combined with better eliquid (24mg vs 18mg) gave me what I needed: I couldn't have quit analogs without'em.

    Not much now, but 5 days with NO analogs

    I guess it sounds weird to say it, but I'm VERY PROUD OF ALL Y'ALL! :D I remember how astounded I was when I really went a full DAY without an analog (after 32+ years of 2p/d). There were a few rough patches along the way, but I vaped through them (used a bit of WTA eliquid). Now, nothing...

    Evic charge problem

    Interesting. After charging all night, evic showed 73% charge. I disconnected, and strangely enough, the charge slowly rose to 100%. I have no idea what's going on, but it is certainly unusual.

    P-sy-col-ogy

    Nope...it's NOT just you. I had been experiencing clouds of depression for several years when I first tried smoking (at age 27), and the reason I continued was because smoking reduced that depression to the point it became almost UNnoticeable. Through the years, whenever I tried to quit...
