    PG/VG Sensitivity/Allergies

    PG sensitivity for me. My Very first experience yielded a monster headache that lasted for MANY hours. Any subsequent exposure to predominantly PG based fluids leaves me with ulcers inside my lip area. When I reduce exposure to PG, all symptoms (the previously mentioned (2) were not the only...

    Reduce PG in PG liquid

    I would suggest that you might get some juice from a supplier that is formulating a reduced or non PG recipe and try it. You may or may not have a sensitivity to PG, and this method may help you better determine if what you suspect is valid. I know that I went through a period of throat...

    Experiencing vivid dreams all of a sudden

    This is a VERY commonly reported side effect. Search the "health and ...." threads for side effects and you will find one that has 400 or so replies. It takes a few hours to read them all, but there are dozens of "vivid dreams" reports, along with some other "not so desirable" -but- fleeting...

    JLeigh, My experience when I started went as follows: The very first time I got any vapor in me was at a local shop that let me try a Smoke51 cartomizer product in thier store, I used it for about 5 minutes or so while talking to the clerk and when I left the store I found that I suffered a...

    "Lucky" is an empath , this bird can differentiate a visitor's general attitude from across the house (even through walls !) and makes enough racket that the person will cut short thier visit, this only happens with a person who has a "pissy" outlook. Otherwise, he is calm and lovable. The other...

    While trolling the ECF I noticed your avatar "eclectus". I have had a similiar male ec;etus parrot named "Lucky" for about 4 years now. I just take notice anytime I spot one, and congratulate the owner of the image (and hopefully the parrot) for thier good taste and tolerance of one of my...

    Seasoned Vaporers

    Started at 24, now at 18 (almost by accident), and I intend on progressively reducing the strength from now on because of the fear that "big brother" is going to mess up the industry and make getting the hardware too difficult to allow me to keep off the analogues. I'll keep on reducing the nic...

    I only have a 510 modelpassthrough with a battery. There are some design characteristics to take into consideration, The battery is a 10440 UNprotected lithiom ion. This being said, I would reccommend AGAINST using it in a portable mode. It's just too easy to drain the battery below SAFE...

    510 Batt Connector Source

    For my 510 based Nicostik mod I sourced my connectors from the R401 USB cable charger. The piece that I extract from the charger is much more substantial than the ferrule that you remove from a battery (or is available through the Altsmoke Mod store). This part is giving me the increased area...

    Help? Can I use Multimeter test on e-cig battery?

    MickiO, I think it is fantastic that you are learning to/ -and- using a multimeter to perform the MANDATORY checks to your batteries, now you need to educate yourself on a few key points. If you EVER slip, or mistakenly touch the leads (bare metal part of the wires) together while in the...

    Wow, 510 batteries don't last long! Is that right?

    The batteries are the weak link in this product. I have been using my stuff for about 3 months now, and my biggest complaint is the battery capacity and life span (two different issues!). I have determined one thing that helps though. You should have multiple "different type(s)" of chargers...

In that instance it...

    This thread originates with tha Nazi ASH director taking a new tact in a battle against the sellers of our much needed supplies, using the question of insurance as ammunition for his warfare. If he is remotely correct (and lets all hope that isn't the case) and insurance coverage for this...
