    Why does the EVIC get alot of hate?

    I have TWO evics (bought through coops here on ECF) and LOV'EM both...one silver and one black. I paid about $64.00 each for them, and thought it was a great deal. I might have to do a double take to spend $100+......but I'm cheap. :) I'm as careful with my Evics as I am with my smartphone...

    Stress still invokes the craving for analogs.

    You're NOT "a failure"...unless YOU set a time-table for required results. I'm attempting to lose weight, but I had a bowl of ice cream last night. I also had TWO glasses of wine at dinner. Even so, I lost 2 lbs last week, and expect to lose another 2 lbs this coming week. If it doesn't...

    Keeping up with TRUE money saved.

    Like the OP, I keep a running record of my true expenses in my sig. It DID take awhile to break even, but after I found 'my' hardware, eliquid and nic level, the savings began. In less than two years, I've now saved enough to buy whatever mod I want AND take a 2 week vacation to the beach (4...

    Do certain flavors or nic levels make you hiccup?

    LOL...I'm vaping DIY orange menthol right now. ;)

    Do certain flavors or nic levels make you hiccup?

    When the nic level is too high, I get hiccups. After the hiccups start, if I don't cut back on vaping - or switch to a lower nic level - I'll get a headache...and almost feel kinda sick. These days, I like to chain vape through the afternoon, so I mainly use 6mg eliquid. If you have some PG...

    Trying to help my buddy

    I have the SS Vamo AND two Evics, and lov'em all. For "durability", I would go with Vamo. For higher voltage/wattage, I would go with Vamo. For overall FUN and 'geekiness', I prefer Evic, but Vamo costs less. I've tried a number of Provari mods owned by friends, and tend to prefer 'trying...

    Vaping 1 week now

    Very GLAD you're here, Kamicollo, and you've got a GOOD setup to begin! Ego batts and clearomizers did the trick for me. I still use ego batts occasionally, but now mostly Evics and Vamos with Vivi Novas, Evods and DIY ejuice. You and wifey are in the right place! If you have questions...

    LavaTube V3 Lambo

    Vamo is a great unit! I ordered the SS model with extra tubes and stack 18650's. It's heavy, but lasts two days on a charge. Of all the mods I own, I think Vamo is probably the most sturdy. Problem free for 7.5 months. :)

    Vamo cuts out after firing, resistance all over the place... bad coil? (sanity check)

    I just picked up a couple of evods and neither of them work on my Vamo. They work fine on my Evics and Ego batts though. If yours WAS working, like the guys said above, be sure the atty head is screwed on tight. :)

    Decide to get the Evic, need some advise now on the tanks or cartomizer please

    Sounds like you've got a great setup in mind! I have two Evics (also have a Vamo, Lavatube and Eroll) and the Vivi Novas work GREAT for me! I also love the Evod on Evics, but doesn't hold as much. Thinking about adding a Kanger Pro tank to my supply, but I'm happy as is. Haven't tried...

    ONE month is HUGE! Out of ALL the months since my last analog, I believe I was MOST SURPRISED and PROUD of the 1ST MONTH! :blink: CONGRATS! :rickroll:

    Vape-A-Palooza 2013 in Atlanta

    Definitely had a good time tonight. I think I sampled every juice on vendor tables (or got a free sample for later). By the time I made it completely around the room, I had a nic buzz and hiccups. :blink: Came home with about 60 bottles of ejuice, a couple of Evods, 18650 batts and a stack of...

    Have to quit cigs NOW!

    Hang in there! Like other folks are saying, keep your nic @ a level that will SATISFY you. Above all else, THAT is the most important part in the beginning. I was @ 24mg for about 6 months, til I caught a cold. After that, my body demanded less nic, so I dropped to 18mg. About 6 months later, my...
