    New to vaping. Nicotine strength questions

    If you're really wanting something to taste like an analog cigarette, look into "flue cured" tobacco flavors as they have smoke flavoring that gives them the familiar ashtray taste we all know and (used to) love.

    Quick Evic question

    The main difference with the larger style "mods" is that they use standardized rechargeable batteries like the 18650 that are easily replaceable and will last a REALLY long time. The 1000mAH Twist is fantastic on battery life, but most 18650's will last more than twice as long. The other...

    New to vaping. Nicotine strength questions

    With the Vamo you have, nicotine strength won't make as much of a difference because you can just turn up the wattage to find the flavor and throat hit you like best, so feel free to start a little lower. When I was first starting out, I bought a bottle of unflavored 3.6% (36mg/ml) so that if I...

    Why Do Public Health Groups Oppose E-cigarettes?

    But the "Australian Sex Party" is not on the ballot for President. The Libertarian nominee, however, is on the ballot in enough states to have a mathematical chance of winning. Unfortunately, both of the major party candidates are so terrible that people on both sides of the aisle feel...

    Unbelievable! Prof Christina Gratziou

    A snippet of just the psychological side effects of Varenicline reads like the list of side effects from a Zombie bite: "Anxiety, depression, emotional disorder, irritability, restlessness, aggression, agitation, disorientation, dissociation, decreased libido, mood swings, abnormal thinking...

    Unbelievable! Prof Christina Gratziou

    I wouldn't be so certain of that. Propylene Glycol vapor is a proven safe and effective germicide and antibacterial. I don't know if the less than a teaspoon/day used by most vapers is enough to drastically reduce airborne infections, but it certainly COULD be better than "nothing". Without...

    That is over 1,800 cartons and about $100,000 that will NOT be split between Big Tobacco, Big Government, & their "friends" at Big Pharma.

    Vape shop in Lloyd Center

    They have a pretty decent selection of flavors, but they were DeKang and more than I like to spend for *premium* e-liquid.

    Outdoor Summer Concerts...and CASAA

    I have connections with the founders and organizers of "The Extreme Tour" (Here's this year's schedule: The Extreme Tour - Official Site ). It would be no problem to send a pile of informational flyers, etc. to be handed out, or, if a vendor wanted to support someone, I can pretty much...

    Lorillard purchases Blu E-Cigs

    The average commercial cigarette contains 1.63% nicotine--or 16.3mg/g. The FDA tried to claim that Brown & Williamson's tobacco products should be regulated as drug delivery devices because of the addition of tobacco containing 6.5% (65mg/g) nicotine, but the Supreme Court ruled that it was the...

    Lorillard purchases Blu E-Cigs

    It just so happens that the lawsuit about Brown & Williamson allegedly making cigarettes "more addictive" by including Y1 Tobacco containing up to 6.5% nicotine in their blends is the very Supreme Court ruling that Judge Leon and the Appellate Court unanimously cited as evidence that...

    Lorillard purchases Blu E-Cigs

    Yes, I'm concerned too. "Big Tobacco" has certainly shown they have the ability to play the fall guy extremely well. However, this was not always the case. The Tobacco Industry was critical to the survival of this country early on and continues to be an enormous portion of the economy and...

    What exactly is '510' and how compatible is it?

    The "C" in eGo-C stands for Changeable. Basically it is the same as the eGo-T "Tankomizer" except that the tankomizer (that is designed to be used with an eGo so it uses the same fitting as a 510, but has a built in "cone" to match the eGo design) allows you to replace the actual atomizer head...

    What exactly is '510' and how compatible is it?

    When e-cig users first started making modifications to their e-cigarettes, the three most popular designs were the 510, the 901, and the penstyle 801. The 510 was preferred by most for its strong throat hit and good flavor--especially at higher voltages. The 306 atomizer, 510 cartomizer, eGo-T...

    Has there been any recent studies on e-cigs?

    ...and spoons..and knives...and dollar bills... I've even heard of people smoking out of an apple--we might as well just regulate everything! Everything is bad that can be used to "do drugs" and drugs are bad, 'mmkay?

    Has there been any recent studies on e-cigs?

    As one of the founding board members who has absolutely no vested interest in the industry, please trust that I share your concern. However, because vapers who have started businesses and anyone else who has vested interest in smoke-free products have the most to gain or lose (financially) from...
