    New Vape Shop in vegas

    As some of you may know, Las Vegas has quite a few vapor shops, and more than a few that aren't fantastic. I've found a good one! Liquid vape house on Trop and Pecos has really good pricing on their juice ($8 for a 30mil), a decent flavor line mixed right in front of you, good gear pricing...

    Throat hit and masochism

    Slightly odd topic, I figured it needed discussion. Does the craving for a throat hit count as a masochistic addiction? Like...we crave that slight pain, I wonder how that relates to the psyche. Personally I enjoy that slight burn, but no other sorts of pain. Any thoughts?

    On my desk I have a Tobh...and a few spools of magnet wire..

    Something tells me this won't end well. I'm seriously considering buying a few extra RDAs for experimentation, and thinking one of them shall become a 510 connected electromagnet. Which got me thinking, if they manage to ban our devices we can always have them marketed as an electromagnetism...

    Build to cut down on re-wicking

    OOOKAY... I've been messing around with this for a bit. quad-barrel, dual serial/dual parallel...but I've added a bit of a twist........MESH! I figured I can pull the cotton, dry-burn, replace the cotton without fiddling around, twisting, threading, etc, and get repeatable results. So far...

    Vape a Tazer?

    Kinda an odd errant thought... I was thinking about how we used to want to go higher voltage, now higher wattage and lower ohms. Can we just skip the middleman and add an RDA to a Tazer? :D

    Got in all my gear...except for my replacement mod

    So as some of you may know, I've been rocking a Lavatube for a while (way too long). It was pretty good, worked great with my tanks, and generally performed admirably. Finally, after distinguished service it decided it was time to retire. Stripped threads and all. I went online and decided...

    So I saw the Marlboro mark 10...

    Watched a video on youtube on the marl mk10. I'm not sure what they were talking about when they said they're tamper resistant, but they sure appear to have taken an old Carto, set up their own threading, and sold it as a new product. I wonder if mk10 is a nod to 510. Don't know really...

    So guys, the safe cig...

    Been running around youtube a lot lately, and it seems like these guys are getting people to post videos of how their model is the best thing ever. Being the skeptic I am (and rabid 510 lover), I've been doing my best to give them a hard time. ;) Someone claimed that it's actually made in...

    It's been a while

    I see the ECF is blossoming more than ever! Ecigs are becoming more mainstream too based on my observations of people observing me vaping. (yes, I like to watch them watch me) There's very little surprise, and I get asked less and less about it. Was vaping while everyone smoked at my...

    We've cost the cigarette business roughly this much!

    So, I'm bored, time to crunch some numbers. We've got 3418 people to sign the petition (listed below), some of those are bound to be family members of vapers, but I'm sure plenty of vapers haven't signed too. We're going to assume, for the sake of this calculation, that the numbers balance to...

    Question about Running

    Any of the runners/exercise buffs around here ever run work out so hard that you nearly threw up? If so any idea if that's an indicator of anything? Not really PV related, but seeing as I trust you guys more than anywhere else.... Edit: It SHOULDN'T be heat related as it's only (supposedly)...

    A question about Potentiometers

    Ok...experimenting with implementing adjustable voltage via potentiometer and I'm hitting a little snag in that I can't seem to figure out which one to buy to implement it. I lack anything but the most basic knowledge of the workings of electricity. (it goes from here to here...

    Perfumers apprentice flavoring suggestion

    I've noticed that adding about 1-2% vodka to my mixes using the PA line of flavorings has helped them be much more vapeable. So far, they were good without but the amount of vapor, speed at which the atomizer gunked up, and general flavoring taste have improved since that addition. I'm...

    So I now have a 5 volt snus tin mod

    Just upgraded my snusbox (the one with magnets inside the cover to stick it to things) to 5 volts with a ptn04050 chip. One odd thing, with the cover on (the magnets are over the chip) it vibrates a little when I push the button. Kinda cool. Check it out!

    Lets make a spreadsheet of rebranded ecigs!

    Alrighty guys, need your help. I actually know a relatively small number of models and their re-branded names. Got the spreadsheet open with categories set up like this so far: name, model/type If you can think of more info to add I'll add a column! :) I'm sure it would help people...

    Have we gotten any new info on this ban?

    Vote on electronic cigarettes ban postponed in Ill. House committee Political Fix Just wondering if the Illinois ban went through after all or if it was successfully beaten. Also...anyone got a good source of current news on ecigs? Most of the news blogs I'm finding are kinda outdated. I...

    Just dreamed about vaping...sorta

    I dreamed about a vapocalyptic world where the government had already banned e-cigs... In the dream, I was trying to decide on a device. It turned out I couldn't afford any of em and some of the higher end ones were like ...robots, which are always cool so I built a female robot...ecig...

    Why they should never have let me have neodymium magnets.

    Got the metal bar on my desk suspending atomizers and devices I'm using that day above my keyboard. Check it out.

    What should I put in a bag for the zombie apocalypse?

    Ok ladies and gents, now that I have achieved the acquisition of a sweet looking portfolio bag, what should I fill it with? (besides most of my vaping gear) It has plenty of space for a lot of stuff and now that I have it I'm running out of things to put inside to fuel my apocalyptic...

    Found a source for flavoring

    It seems wal-mart has their own version of Loranne flavorings. (best value brand) Most of em are PG based, and carry no sugar. I did notice that there were a few with corn syrup, so make sure to read the labels to avoid em... Bought myself some orange, rum, and raspberry to play with...
