    Emergency!!

    Might also be a good idea to list where you're at- closer to the vendor, quicker you get your goods. Plus, some nearby good samaritan may be willing to hook you up with some additional juice until yours comes in.

    Vipers from Lithuania

    I'm not from Lithuania... but I really like the term Vipers.

    New disposables?

    It was my understanding that these can only be recharged if the battery is not completely discharged. Is that the case, or are they as forgiving as the 510 disposables, and can be recharged even from "dead" (will not light and produce vapor)?

    What's the highest mg Nicotine?

    I understand you might not respond right away, and I don't expect you to have to defend your opinion, least against me. That being said, I found nothing untrue in your statement, and you might even be right about the consequences. I appreciate your message of caution, and I hope that other...

    What's the highest mg Nicotine?

    There is a lot of rounding going on regarding concentrations- pure nicotine is heavier than water (which is 1g/mL), actually about 1.01g/mL. That doesn't sound like much of a difference unless you're dealing with such tight controls, eh? 99% of 1010mg/mL is 999.9mg/mL of nicotine, which means...

    KR808d blanks, and 510 kits, attys , and carts

    Thanks Thyestean. I did do a little additional searching here, and it looks like there is some potential problem with airflow from certain types of adaptors. I honestly don't know if shawn's work with the cartomizers without modification. I think you could adapt with a dremel or even a metal...

    KR808d blanks, and 510 kits, attys , and carts

    I believe that kr808's use the same threads as 901s, and that you could therefore use a 510-901 (510 battery to 901 atty) thread adapter from shawn. They're under "Accessories", and you'll need to select the right one from the drop down menu. Don't take my word on the thread compatibility of...

    "It feels like sandpaper in my throat and lungs."

    I've heard of it being called the "pot-smokers inhale", which may explain why it was originally popular in certain circles (holding in lungs afterwards for maximum effect). Others who are simply heavy smokers may do it for a similar, nicotine-specific reason :P I think much of the rest of the...

    class action against the FDA and Health Canada

    I'd gladly pledge $10 (if not more) to the cause. Although monetary damages may not be possible, an injunction or other action against them for interfering may be. Perhaps even a class action suit to include anyone's shipment, and against the FDA and anyone else involved in seizures (including...

    "It feels like sandpaper in my throat and lungs."

    Tell them to puff the e-cigarette like they would a cigar. If they don't understand that, tell them draw on it like a straw and then slowly inhale just a small amount of that vapor and just swirl the rest.

    Did a flavor never work for you?

    I had tried dekang cola and dr pepper right after I started vaping, and they were both bad... wispy slightly lemon (?!) watery flavor. Chocolate and coffee were both disappointing as well, but vapable with a little modification/blending. (Chocolate/coffee/vanilla/cream was a favorite for a...

    Lorann and glycerine storage

    I meant to respond to that (Loranns) as well... and I forgot :oops: When I first got into DIY juices a few months back, I raided my sister's candy making supplies, given that she had 50-60 of the little sample bottles of Lorann's flavors. They've been there at least 18 months, including...

    Lorann and glycerine storage

    Glycerin, when kept properly closed, cool and dark, will last at least a year. I'd suggest a dry corner of the basement or back of a closet for bulk amounts. 2 ounces will probably only last a daily vaper a few months however, and basically as long as you don't leave it on the back of the...

    Where to buy PG and VP

    I have experience with international shipping through the USPS and using APO boxes as well... Sorry, but USPS flat-rate boxes cannot be used to go out of the country. The USPS offers special APO/FPO flat rates for shipping to military post/general delivery addresses, but those are considered to...

    What's the highest mg Nicotine?

    Generally anyone who is selling the high strength (really, anything above 16-18mg) is going to be mixing with at least part pure nicotine. It's probably, as mentioned above, more a matter of "sweet-talking" someone into mixing up something that's rather dangerous if handled incorrectly. Most...

    Something I find interesting with my ecig n our dog

    My dog would usually get up and leave my side if I lit up a cigarette, although she had no problem going out onto the porch or poolside with me when I went out there to do the same. I think it was more the smell in the enclosed space that she had a problem with. The cats would often make a nasty...

    Question for menthol lovers...

    I'd have to double check my recipe, but I think it basically ended up being 15-20% flavorings, 10% alcohol (which was mostly to dilute the tobacco absolute and dissolve the menthol crystals and other solids), and 70-75% VG

    Question for menthol lovers...

    Personally, I think tobacco absolute+menthol crystals is the way to go, but the DIY forum has several people using "seedmans" tobacco flavoring to get their menthol love. I actually used menthol crystals, tobacco absolute, and a few other flavorings to recreate M-boro Smooth. It's a dead ringer...
