    haha its like the doner party for me

    Provided you like the thickness of pure vg, yes. If you want to thin it, use a small quantity (start with 5-10%) of pure grain alcohol, vodka, or distilled water (personally, I like the way vodka works, but there are differing opinions on what's best). Make sure you don't get it thinner than...

    Getting a Syringe?

    I ordered several syringes from Johnson Creek Smoke Juice, cost about $2.50 apiece for 3ml size with sharp needle tips. They work well. Accessories - 3mL Syringe With Needle (20 gauge) Heaven's Gifts also offers them now, however, in 5ml size with blunt tips, for $0.75 apiece. 5ml e-juice...

    haha its like the doner party for me

    Personally, I'd drain what you have in the prefilled ones and combine with what you have left (provided the flavors are compatible)- then cut it with enough pg/vg to give yourself a nice amount. Anything less then a 50/50 cut you probably won't notice horribly. If you go much more than that...

    How do YOU use your ecig?

    I always did a mouth inhale with analogs, but I occasionally "direct draw" with my m402. It definitely gives a stronger throat and chest hit, and changes the way I smell/taste the flavors. Menthols are improved by direct, but fruit flavors seem thin and acidic unless I mouth puff first. I've...

    Storing the E-Cig

    From everything I've ever heard, Li-Ion batteries are best stored with a partial charge, something around 50-80%. Atomizers, I'd definitely put a bit of liquid on them before putting them away- straight PG would probably be best, then VG, unflavored e-liquid, or flavored e-liquid (in that...

    Ive been vaping for over a year...

    I think your anger is misplaced. How else are we to know spammers from genuine users? Even if you'd registered a year ago and never posted, I might agree a bit more with you frustration... but really- you've not contributed to the forum in all this time, how is anyone to know you?

    Virginia had banned e-cig along with analog

    There's an active discussion in Campaigning already. http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/campaigning-discussions/53135-attention-all-va-lawyers-who-vape.html

    Macroevolution - do you believe?

    I'm glad you're so well versed in biology. Perhaps then you'll remember that the common dog was, for an exceedingly long time, referred to as simply "canis familiaris", and the wolf was "lupus lupus". This classified them as being different species, and it was believed they could not...

    Prefilled m401 Carts?

    Refilling m4xx carts is easy once you learn the basics, and have the right equipment for you. Personally, I think that includes pushing up the inner cart, and using a small syringe to fill from the bottom up. Then push the inner cart back in with either the rubber plug, or gently with the...

    "My Mom's putting out for Santa"... Anyone else read that with a drastically different meaning?

    A name for the buying sprees induced by fears of ban?

    "Prohibition Stockpiling" An obvious and intentional callback to one of the biggest miscarriages of justice and personal liberty in the US, alcohol prohibition.

    Macroevolution - do you believe?

    One of the most ridiculous arguments against macroevolution is that once something is a new species, it supposedly cannot produce viable offspring with the original, or other species. Worse, this is based on early scientific beliefs that have been carried over long after it was shown incomplete...

    Using Alcohol in juice mixes?

    The differences in amounts is like that of a thimble or a bucket. Even if all of the vaporized alcohol was absorbed into the bloodstream directly (which it won't), that'd still be far, far less than what is absorbed when you drink a shot of the stuff (which, btw, nearly all of which is...

    Nhaler Post Censoring (He who controls the presses...)

    If I understand correctly, they pay a fee for their subforum, which means that they effectively did "set up [their] own forum" But, that'd be why other subforums, such as this one, exist. :)

    Using Alcohol in juice mixes?

    And I'm sure it had to vaporize a fairly large amount of it, probably into a rather moist mist rather than a cloudy vapor. Alcohol won't make a opaque/semi-opaque vapor like we're used to with e-cigs- at least not without getting and staying a LOT warmer than would be comfortable. Most...

    e-juice Graveyard?

    Many people actually squeeze out their old cartridges when the filling seems to be getting worn out and will mix the leftovers in this manner. I think the flavor is actually improved due to the ever-so-slight carbonization of the old fill material.

    Using Alcohol in juice mixes?

    No, you don't absorb anything like the volume of alcohol it would take to actually recieve an effect. You're probably getting less than when you use vanilla extract in ice cream- ie: practically none.

    Using Alcohol in juice mixes?

    Much of the visible plume is due to VG/PG robbing water out of the air anyway, so adding a little bit of distilled water (in the form of lower proof alcohol) is probably not the worst thing that can happen. I use smirnoff red label (40% / 80 proof) with my vg for my blends. It works at least...

    Received my m401 PCC

    Looks like apophis beat me to the punch on the 3rd party pcc. Send me a pm if it turns out that your pcc is just the wrong size but charges- I may take it off your hands. I'm partial the m402 battery size.
