    Very Discouraged.

    I'd say mostly it's because really good ejuice is not a "stand alone" flavor -- at least, very VERY few. 1) visit The Flavor Apprentice Flavoring thread; 2) if you want something that tastes decent right away, or at least lets you know right away if it's any good or not, use 25%-30% flavoring...

    Tootle Puffers, Redux (The Sequel)

    Mine's in the cabinet under the kitchen counter dedicated to vaping and all its stuff. Those 16oz bottles on the right side? PG and VG. The carousel in the upper cabinet is where I keep my flavors. And yeah, if vaping overtakes anymore of my kitchen, we're gonna have to buy a new house...

    Few questions about quitting smoking and vaping instead

    Not having any at all in the house works just the opposite for me -- it pisses me off, makes me feel "controlled", coerced, and I JUST AIN'T HAVIN IT! :D My last open pk still has 12 in it, in the back of the freezer in a ziplock bag, tobaccocicles now almost 18 months old. But hey, if I...

    Tootle Puffers, Redux (The Sequel)

    Pg and VG aren't going anywhere; they're both commonly used in a lot of different ways, not just vaping. No need to stockpile those, except maybe as a hedge against inflation -- Amazon has gone up radically on the price of Vg since I last bought it, probably thanks to the cloud chasers! Andria

    Few questions about quitting smoking and vaping instead

    If I had "tried to quit", I'd have failed. As long as I "missed" a cigarette, I would never have been happy with vaping. I started vaping primarily to have a way to "smoke" indoors; then I saw all the success stories round here, realized that I'd actually wanted to be a non-smoker for a long...

    Now we have to worry about booze in our vapes.

    Heh, that's funny -- I only ever heard my own grandfather swear one time, "damn" was his word too -- I was just learning to drive, and hadn't realized how much I needed to slow down, to make a turn -- took that turn almost on 2 wheels. :lol: But it really wakes you up, to hear someone swear who...

    Now we have to worry about booze in our vapes.

    Unless someone is taking antabuse, that small amount of alcohol in flavoring for a vape shouldn't cause any problems; it's a small amount, and the heat of the coil vaporizes the alcohol very rapidly -- probably even before it could be inhaled. As I've mentioned, I do occasionally put a 1/4 tsp...

    Now we have to worry about booze in our vapes.

    I drank 2% beer when I was an 18 yr old in Colorado -- it is definitely not non-alcoholic, and WILL get you intoxicated... if you can drink enough of it between trips to the bathroom! :lol: Andria

    The Womper Woom OR You Might Be A Modwomper

    When you cook grits.. doesn't it smell like cornbread baking? I get that smell everytime. BTW, it's so nice to find people on the internet who 1) actually know about grits, and 2) actually like grits. :D Andria

    Now we have to worry about booze in our vapes.

    Every individual is different. My husband is a recovering alcoholic too, he quit a week after I did, after drinking the 12pk that was still in the fridge when I quit -- but the only AA meetings he's been to, this time around, were the ones in which I was "picking up a chip." Just because some...

    They aren't metabolized by the liver in the same way as ethanol, nor do they affect the brain in the same way. Andria

    Now we have to worry about booze in our vapes.

    Absolutely! As if I never tried "self limiting"! :lol: The very first part of the very first step -- "We admitted we were powerless over alcohol" -- when you can truly recognize and admit that, you have made the first babystep to doing something about it. If you never recognize or admit that...

    The Name Should Have Been Changed A Long Time Ago

    Yes, to all of that! In fact, I do use the term "e-cigarette," but rather than saying that is what it IS, I say "It's like an e-cigarette, just bigger and better!" If they have ANY interest at all, that will often pique their curiosity so they ask "Really, how's it better?" and I can then...

    Tootle Puffers, Redux (The Sequel)

    Yes, absolutely the place where more progress needs to be made are the batteries; instead of MOAR VAPOR, now we need MOAR BATTERY LIFE! :lol: To me that's one of the best parts about being a tootle puffer; these hi-wattage mods that support sub-ohm vaping have considerable amperage, and with...

    Hello!

    For me, I have so many mods now, it's really a bonus at this point, but my very first "real" mod was an Innokin iTaste vv3, which has pass-thru, and at only 800mAh, it was a necessity! I kept it plugged into my computer constantly when I was sitting here on ECF (about 80% of every waking...

    A bit annoyed: vaping indoors all of a sudden upset ONE coworker

    I think the real problem is that these people just can't tolerate the sight of anyone enjoying something that they themselves don't use, wouldn't even want to use, so why should anyone else!?! It makes them so angry that they hold their breath like an angry child, so it's no dang wonder they...

    Tootle Puffers, Redux (The Sequel)

    Well, what we need to do -- vaporize a liquid containing nicotine -- is fairly low-tech; we do have electronic power sources that run on batteries, and those are slowly growing in complexity, but the more complex a machine is, the more likely it is to break, to cost a lot to fix, or just to buy...
