    My quest to quit vaping (continued)

    Some of you might remember a thread I posted a few weeks ago. It was titled "My Quest to Quit Vaping" I basically told my story, and it seemed to be a pretty popular thread. It ended up going 4 pages. This is a sequel to that thread. When I left off on the last thread, I was vaping 8mg...

    My quest to quit vaping

    Some of you might recognize me. I haven't been very active on the forum lately. I started vaping in December 2012, and completely quit cigarettes in January 2013. At first I didn't want to quit vaping. I was vaping 18mg liquid and I had no plans to quit. I was using it as a substitute for...

    Got the "antifreeze" argument again today

    So I'm at work today, and i was just coming inside from my vape break because e cigs were recently banned inside the facility. A Co worker, who is a well known smoking nazi approaches me and says, "How was the antifreeze?" I gave him a puzzled look as if i didn't know what he was talking...

    Vaping banned at work today

    I work at a transit garage and a memo was posted today notifying staff that electronic cigarettes are now banned inside company vehicles and facilities. This all came about supposedly because of inquiries from employees. So somebody actually asked management if it was ok. My school of...

    NITECORE Intellicharger i4 V2

    Looking for a NITECORE Intellicharger i4 V2. I've read some reports of people ordering these things off amazon and ebay, and it ends up coming with a european power cord. Can anybody recommend a website that sells these units with a US plug? None of the websites I've visited specify what kind...

    Protank head lifespan problems

    I'm normally a carto tank user, but a few months back i bought a protank to see what all the hype was about. I will say the protank is excellent when its working well. But i can't seem to get through a full tank before it starts tasting like metal or burnt. I'm using authentic...

    Big things happening in Minnesota

    So as of July 1st a new tax has been applied to cigarettes to the tune of $1.60 a pack. That makes a pack of cigarettes $7.50-$8.00 depending on the brand. I was at a liquor store today and the highest price for a pack of cigarettes was $9.69. That is absolutely insane. Luckily, I've been...

    I have a provari but I want something else

    I have a provari mini that I bought back in march, and I love it. I use it exclusively and I don't even touch any of my ego twists anymore even though I own 3 of them. The provari provides with me with everything I need, but lately I've been thinking about getting another mod. Not that I'm...

    Lowering nic level to zero and the experience

    I plan to lower my nic level soon. For the past 5 months I've been at 18mg and my juice supplier allows me to purchase at any nic level. I already have a bottle of 16mg ready to go, and i plan on lowering it in 2mg increments. My question is for people that have lowered to zero. Do you...

    For those jumping into the mod world and batteries

    Just thought I'd share a helpful tip that I've learned over the past few months. When I started vaping I was using ego twists. I had three of them and I was charging batteries every single day. It became almost a tedious task. I know it doesn't seem like that big of a deal, but I was always...

    Kanger Protank thoughts

    I've always been a pretty loyal carto tank user. 90% of my tank collection consists of carto tanks and I've never been a huge fan of clearomizers. I have a couple vivi novas, and a kanger T3, and for the past 4 months, they have all been sitting in a drawer collecting dust. I always have...

    Fell off the wagon

    For the past 7 days I've been in Mexico hanging around at a resort in playacar de carmen. There was A LOT of drinking involved. I'm talking about often starting before noon and not stopping until midnight or one in the morning. Before I left on this trip I knew that I would probably end up...

    Flying with Lithium batteries

    I'm flying to mexico next week, and I plan to bring my equipment. If I were staying in the US I wouldn't have any issues carrying everything on the plane with me, but considering I'm gonna have to go though customs, I think it just makes more sense transport everything in my checked bag. I...

    Tired of wasting your time? Try this

    I am a huge fan of cartomizer tanks. I use other things from time to time, I've even experimenting with RBA's. But my every day all day vape comes from carto tanks. I don't know about you guys, but I'm tired of screwing around. It seems like more often than not, I'll go through the trouble of...

    I think my attitude about vaping is changing

    For those that don't know, I've been vaping since December 2012. When I first started I wanted a cig a like. I bought a blu starter kit and quickly outgrew it. From there I wasn't interested in a mod. I thought they were just too weird looking. So I purchased myself an ego setup. I used...

    Finally! I built my first successful coil

    Bought my first RBA on friday. Didn't want to spend a lot of money at first so I picked up an AGA T2. This was a lot more difficult to put together than I thought. I knew it wouldn't be easy, but I didn't expect to fail so many times. I've built probably a total of 8 coils since friday night...

    Built my first coil

    Picked up an AGA T2 this morning, and I made my first stainless steel wick and coil tonight. My coil isn't great. It looks good visually I think. It has 4 wraps and it ohms out at 1.2 ohms on my provari. All of the wraps are evenly spaced and I'm not getting the e1 error, so there isn't a...
