    A "real cigarette" taste...Recipe...sort of

    In which case you'll be inhaling everything bad from a cigarette except maybe the carbon monoxide? Not sure that's a great idea. One of the key points of using hardwood smoke is that it's not toxic, whereas softwoods like pine are, and we all know that tobacco is.

    Use a balloon...

    I hope you're not suggesting it belongs near any other end of your body! 8-o The m401 atty has an exposed wick, but that's not the actual heating element- the nichrome coil is still encased, and it's not a bad idea to clear that out every now and then. I'd be careful to put clean...

    Menthol???

    Though I've not done it myself, I've read several posts where it was suggested that you crush the menthol crystals with a small amount of PGA (pure grain alcohol, like everclear). Heating was never mentioned. Beyond that, I might think that you simply overloaded the liquid with a few too many...

    Let the quitting begin.My first eCig just arrived.

    Welcome to the forum! Glad to see another one pick up the m-series. So many people seem to be stuck on 510's, and I really think the m4x's produce some wonderful vapor, and they're so close to the size and shape we're used to as smokers. If you ever smoked menthols, I suggest giving that a try...

    We Truly are a Small Vaping Community

    A coworker of mine mentioned e-cigs to me after her fiance and another friend got into them, this is what really got me to switch. I've turned another coworker, my sister, and my brother-in-law into part-time vapers as well. For all the times that someone has asked me about mine, or even flat...

    Making it economical.. help please!

    Quite the opposite, I've heard great things about Flavourart. If I'd not already had access to a cache of LorAnn's, I'd have probably started with that! I meant to include Lorann's, Capellas, and Flavourart as the more commonly used, and generally recognized as safe ;) for vaping liquid use.

    Making it economical.. help please!

    I would mention that there is a reason most people stick to just those few well known brands of flavorings- even LorAnn's is misnamed as "candy oil" as it's not an oil based product. You have to be careful to stay away from products containing oil, volatile flavorings, or sugar. Any of these...

    Glycerin = laxative?

    Glycerin is a laxative if you actually swallow it. Vaping it shouldn't give you anywhere close to the necessary dosage to cause that kind of side effect. They're orders of magnitude different. Honestly, depending on how much you're vaping, (and how much you smoked) you're likely to just be...

    The 30-06 cart mod

    I have no idea how you're supposed to draw off of that... did you make internal modifications?

    Why does it only taste burnt?

    The 401 can burn pretty hot, and doesn't cool off as quickly as others. It's better suited for short hard lung draws that pull a lot of air through. This will make it rather noisy, however, something like the crackling effect that cloves give off (at least, I think so). If you keep puffing on...

    M401 PCC!! Coming your way...

    Though I can't comment on the 401 pcc (other than to say "ME WANT!"... as soon as I can afford to spend more again lol), I'd like to comment on the USB passthrough in the car- it works and it's wonderful. I asked the same question and was greated with a link to a nice looking 2 port adapter at...

    Sellers/Suppliers

    Though I'm not sure I can answer your real question, I thought I'd make a slight note. It's not the suppliers that abandoned PayPal, PayPal abandoned them with their ridiculous limitations. They decided e-cigarettes and supplies were "inappropriate" and started shutting down accounts, in some...

    Thinking of getting my dad a kit for Christmas...

    Make sure to couch it carefully- not as trying to force him to quit, but as a healthy, tasty and most of all CONVENIENT alternative. He'll probably need far more liquid than that, as well... that only sounds like about a week supply- and waiting on more juice isn't convenient.

    Best place to buy VG juice? Need it quick and cheap!

    There's part of your problem- we enjoy vaping, and we can do it almost everywhere, so we tend to overindulge. Fight the urge to just vape constantly, put down your e-cig every now and then, and think of it as taking a break again. I know I still go outside to vape at work, and it keeps my intake...

    A 510 clip for dudes!!

    That version of the ticker takes into account how much money you spent/spend on supplies (like how much it costs for additional carts/per day, and what your startup expenses were). In other words, he's saved his lungs from 336 analogs, and net savings of $3.80 in cash. A day or two ago, it...

    My report from the club on my Revolver elite (m702)'s performance

    Did you notice if the batteries seemed to go off at all while in the pcc? Any telltale glow from the tip? I dj as well, use m402's, and my speakers set off the autobatteries. Manuals work fine, but it's not my preferred way of vaping.

    Caffeine extract?

    No more buzz beer... "Stay up and get drunk all over again!" Vaping caffeine just sounds like a bad idea. If somehow you did manage to effectively get large enough amounts of it into your system, you risk overdosing the same. Nicotine is a little less dangerous, to me, in that most of us...

    brand new e cig-really need some help here

    The atomizer is a dead ringer for a rn4081- in fact, if you do a google search for "rn4081 atomizer", it's the first shopping result. They also link to a post on ECF about their compatibility with Smoking Everywhere products, which are known to be rn4081s as well, correct?

    M401/M402 PCC in Stock!

    How "smart" is this pcc? Is it at all like the m702 pcc which will purportedly not overcharge the batteries? Does it require any finicky button pushing? What are the specs on the pcc battery? I know, so many questions... but I've been waiting to find a pcc to match an e-cig I like since I...

    How many different flavors do you vape in a day ??

    I carry 3 carts with attys attached at all times- menthol (which I often fill/top off into a stock marlboro cart), and two of my own mixes of dekang flavors. 1st is 50% orange, 25% pineapple, 25% cherry 2nd is a varying blend of coffee, chocolate, vanilla and cream. I also added a bit of J.C...
