    Help an old newbie out!

    Hi all, I was a really active member here when I started vaping almost 3 years ago. I was pretty into vaping as a hobby then, and had messed around with RBA's and tube mods, and had pretty much found my happy place with my devices and tanks. This forum was an amazing place to learn about...

    Well, now I've gone and done it...

    Started smoking at 13, started vaping at the end of March last year at 43 - had a rocky first 6 months. But I've just passed the one year mark without a cigarette. I guess there's no turning back now! :D

    About to give up on my Kayfun 3.1 ES clone

    Ok, so I was sooo excited to get this, and I've tried 4 times now, watched 3 videos, and still can't figure out why it's not working. I spent over an hour combined on two tries just today. I am out of ideas and am ready to just get something different. I can get everything going until I try...

    Yep, another vapeversary...

    Hello all, Wow, a year and 2 days have passed since I picked up my first kit and started vaping. I still can't really believe it's been that long, and while my sig is brutally honest, I still consider it a year since I quit. Why, you ask? Well, on March 29th, 2013 I bought an eRoll kit...

    Ecig Market Survey

    I get emails from a market research company for various invitations to join surveys. Most pay a nominal amount if you participate, some pay more. Anyway I got one this morning and immediately went to register. Unfortunately I don't live in the right zip code or was born in the wrong...

    Well I did it, and I can't believe IT WORKS!

    I'm sorta proud of myself...and a little scared at the same time. :laugh: I've been wanting to start rebuilding for several months now, but I've been taking many, many baby steps to get there. Part of it is not having the right materials, part of it is that I don't really have a whole lot of...

    How Do You Lose a 1300mAH Spinner?...and the importance of backups!

    OK, I have no idea where it is...I didn't vape for 2 hours, from the time I got home from work, till about 45 minutes ago. After dinner, I want my vape. Can't find it! Where on earth would I put this 8" long, rainbow colored PV that I can't find it?? It's not in the car... It's not in the...

    Who has tried dripping with their eRoll?

    So today I decided to take apart and dry-burn my protank and evod coils. In the mix were a couple of eRoll atties. Up until now, I've never taken off the spike, just soaked in vodka and maybe burn it till it's dry. Today I removed the spike and the wick came with it. I noticed the coil was...

    Vaping vs Smoking - An Experiment

    At this moment, my SO is completely broke and out of cigarettes. He's tried my spinner and cigalikes before, and always complains about the taste, or the coughing, or the way it makes his lungs feel (he had lung surgery 7 years ago). Says he'd rather quit cold turkey but doesn't plan on it any...

    Anyone here with TMJ issues?

    Hey there, I have a fairly bad case of TMJ disorder and it seems like vaping has awakened a sleeping giant. :unsure: I had to have a year of therapy to correct a very badly "unhinged" jaw after it stayed locked for 4 weeks. (specialist would not recommend surgery except in all but the very...

    Everything tasting sickly sweet...vaper's tongue?

    Hi there, So I'm new at the whole vaping thing, but what I'm experiencing is very similar to something I experience periodically, even when I was smoking. I'm just wondering if anyone else has had this experience and if you know of anything to stop it. It seems like certain flavorings or...

    Has anyone tried to sabotage your vaping?

    I've been analog free for about a week now, and have been extremely happy with the results. I've mentioned to my SO how I wish he would give vaping a try but haven't been "in your face" about it. We've been together for over 20 years (living together for 10) and he smokes about 1 1/2 to 2...

    Hi there! I love smoking and I'll probably never quit...

    ...that's what I said several years ago to my loved ones who periodically would ask if I would ever quit. And up until a few weeks ago, I was sure that I would likely end up as one of those elderly folks dragging an oxygen tank behind me and still wanting to light up, hacking away as I go. I...
