    Query: What would you take for an extended hike?

    Okay, ECF-ers.... I was recently out of town and met a smoker who was quite curious with my vaping. He told me he was about to go on a 12 day hike with his boy scout troop and was thinking of taking some vape gear with him on the trip because he can't really smoke around the scouts but still...

    Quit-Versary

    Hello fellow, ECFers... I have been not posting / responding on here for a while now, but I have not forgotten the importance of a great community like us. One year ago today, I made the plunge to full-time vaping. I remember the day. I was about to leave for a weekend trip and smoked my last...

    Merry Christmas to you, Big Tobacco

    Hello ECF-ers... Really, this is a Happy Holiday to you all and a chance for me to relay a little story. I was driving up I-95 the other day while en route to spend the holidays with my family. I drove right on by the Phillip Morris headquarters in Richmond, VA. As I passed them, I held up my...

    Guilty but proud....

    So, I'm nearing 3 months without an analog, but during the last few days, my head had been screaming for a real cigarette. Most of the strong urges I was able to quiet down easily enough, but today's craving hit me at just the right time. I saw somebody on campus (I'm a teacher) who had my...

    eVic ECA on other APVs...

    Sitting at home and bored when I should be productive, I saw my eVic ECA (eVic Changeable Atomizer) in my gear box and wondered if it was compatible on other APVs... Yep, it sure is. Tried it on my Vamo V3 and my iTaste SVD. Just remove the top ring. Now that I know it's compatible on other...

    Virgin Vapors: Orange Soda Pop (a review of sorts...)

    Virgin Vapor: Orange Soda Pop What I like about Virgin Vapors is that they use glass bottles for all their juices. It's a nice touch, and glass bottles are in need as I continue to gear up for my DIY adventure. So, I've been on a bit of a sweet fruit kick lately to help with my rather warm...

    Alien Visions E-Juice Root Beer and PG Hype (a review of sorts...)

    So, I've been in the process of moving this week and haven't had much time to think about writing a review, which I rather enjoy. So, tonight after a couple of loads and some more work on my homemade bed frame, I decided to sit down, put up my feet, and have a vape with some new flavors that...

    Joining the ProVari ranks...

    Hello fellow ProVari-ers, ProVidiots, ProVariants...what are we called? Anyway, just got my first ProVari...a sleek satin silver v2.0, and I'm rocking it with a beautiful grooved SS Tatroe Tank and some Ahlusion Cherry Cola on a pleasant summer evening on the front porch. So, how do I get this...

    Coil and Wick Questions...(sorry, I'm a newbie)

    Okay, ECFers...quick question that I couldn't really find an answer to after hunting in here. Got my first RBA today (please forgive my naive-ness here). I got the mesh wick rolled just fine and got the coil wrapped around, and it lights up okay...some definite hot spots. So, as I am working at...

    The Vapor Chef's Bloody Mango (a review of sorts...)

    Vapor Chef: Bloody Mango I'm working my way through a Vapor Chef flavor adventure. So far, the first two flavors (Honey Pearry and Butter Beer) have knocked me out. Up next is their Bloody Mango. My batch: 70vg/30pg, 12mg and mixed on 7/3/2013 and vaping in a Protank on a Vamo V3 with a...

    The Vapor Chef's Butter Beer

    The Vapor Chef's Butter Beer. Okay, I'm quickly becoming a fan of this juice vendor. A few days ago, I gave some glowing remarks about their Honey Pearry. Up today is their Butter Beer; their website description says this: Creamy butterscotch, vanilla, and a few other things. This is a great...

    Honey Pearry from The Vapor Chef (a review of sorts...)

    This juice vendor is going to be on the rise soon if they keep cranking out juices as good as this one. At the suggestion of my ECF friend, MsComptrtchr, I got myself some Honey Pearry from The Vapor Chef, a blend of honeydew, pear, and strawberry. My order: 70vg/30pg at 6mg and mixed on...

    Tatroe's Protank Mod (CigTechs)...aka...Tatroe Tank (a review of sorts...)

    I am like most of the vapers out there: in constant need of gear. When I first started vaping, I started with the Kanger T3 clearomizer and absolutely hated them. They leaked, gurgled, couldn't hold "killer" juices that I wanted to vape, but I liked the look of a tank. Luckily, the Protank was...

    CigTechs!

    I ordered a Tatroe SS Protank-style tank from CigTechs a couple weeks ago. This Tatroe tank is a SS version of a Kanger Protank, and works with the Kanger Protank bases and heads. When I ordered my Tatroe tanks, CigTechs was out of bases, so this meant that I would have to use a base from one of...

    FivePawns Queenside (a review of sorts...)

    The other day, I posted a review of a few flavors from Ahlusion with a question of "Is Ahlusion worth it..." This question can really extend to some of the more expensive boutique juice vendors: are their juices worth it at their prices? In my opinion, artisan or boutique juices being worth it...

    Is Ahlusion worth it...I want to believe...(a review of sorts)

    From time to time, a thread pops up asking whether or not boutique juice vendors are worth the trouble, and we all know the trouble of limited order capacity / stock, odd hours, unpredictable hours, etc.... I picked up a few bottles from Ahlusion this month, and here's what I found: Cherry...

    eVic and odd behavior

    Okay fellow eVic-ers. I've had my eVic for a few weeks and am liking it so far, but I've had some odd behavior. Here's the situation: - I had a DCT (all SS from vaperfextion) on the eVic and noticed the temp gauge flashing. I have the temp warning set to 130o. I pulled up the on-screen reading...
