    Missing you people!

    I have been busy with a new job. So far, I am learning a new Controls system for six systems, and writing a training course simultaneously. To do that, I am learning two additional software packages, in addition to the Controls software and hardware. In my free time, from 5:00 to 6:30 AM, I...

    Saturday morning vaping

    Kicking back, and trying out some Strawberries and Creme with my morning coffee. It's not really too bad. Anybody else have their feet up for a little while this morning?

    Vaping like a fiend tonight!

    Tomorrow is my last day in my current job. I like this company, and the work, but I couldn't turn down an opportunity to stop travelling to take care of my mother, and finally spend some time with my wife... and the cats. I have travelled extensively for different well servicing companies and...

    Worst flavor you tried to vape?

    Title covers it. Not brand bashing, just curious about the flavors. For me, the 3rd worst is, by a wide margin, the "Cohiba" I'm suffering through, now. Second worst was a bad batch of what was supposed to be Banana Nutbread, The winner: Blueberry Cinnamon Crumble, and it etched a poly tank...

    Dreaded numb tongue!!! Time to clear out my crummy liquids!

    I have been going through trials and tribulations with a new RBA. Plenty of vapor, little to no flavor. Twelve, wick / coil combinations, and was thinking, "This should be working." After talking my wife into trying my set-up (She doesn't like the liquids I vape), it seems that it is, indeed...

    Vaping, quitting analogs, weight loss

    I quit smoking, once before. I quit for one year, and gained about 15 pounds in the first 2 minutes. I have been off analogs and have been vaping for 5 months, now. If anything, I am losing weight. People around me are complaining that they eat more because when I vape, they crave pancakes and...

    To multi-sub-ohmygosh, or not?

    ****Tired of hearing the silliness elsewhere, so I am posting this in jest**** ****Notice the asterisks**** I have a pile of 3S lipos for my helicopter. They are good for a 25C drain, and they are 2250 mAh... So, let's see, that's around 56 Amps. THey have been flown with a 45 Amp draw through...

    How does this happen?

    I remember when I started vaping, thinking, "I'll never get something like that," when looking at some APVs, tanks, etc. They just looked ridiculous to me. I am now sitting here with a Protank II on an eVic. My Kayfun mini is on the Ego Twists with my wife. I am getting ready to pull the...

    Kayfun Mini vs 3.1 ES ???

    One good thing happened over the last few days. My wife is now vaping more than smoking. The down side of this is that I lost my Kayfun Mini 2.1 in the process. Now that she tried flavor in that, she is a bit more pro on the vaping thing. So, here is the issue. I need either another Mini, or a...

    Battery Tube Options

    I am ok with the silver tube's looks, but it is a bit slippery. My hands are a bit beaten up, so I find myself putting a death grip on the thing because it is hard to tell how tightly I am holding it. Do the black tubes have more of a non-slip surface, or are there other options out there?

    Kayfun Mini 2.1 ES- First Week

    I have been vaping quite heavily on a Kayfun Mini for about a week, now. All vaping has been using an Ego Twist. First, the machining, fit, etc., is excellent. Second, I have listed the coils that I have used, below: Figure 8 of 2mm Ekowool, and 5/4 coil using 32ga Kanthal, 2.5 Ohms Good...

    Too much, too fast.

    Whew. Just figured out what it feels like to overload on the vaping-nicotine thing. I was sitting here chain vaping, to which I am prone, and reading through threads. Not paying attention, I vaped in an hour what I usually would in a night. Being more than familiar with motion sickness, I...

    Going through coils / wicks FAST

    I have Kayfun Mini on the way. The little guy is finally in the US, and is sightseeing. Hopefully he will show up by the end of this coming week. In the meantime, I have been rebuilding the coils for a SVC version of the Mini Nova. The coils I have tried have ranged from 1.8 to 2.7 Ohms, with...

    Buying from overseas

    I want to buy something from Switzerland, and they ship DHL. How are the duties handled, and when are they paid? What is the typical delivery time? For some reason, I am just having a hard time pulling the trigger on this...

    First post from a lurker

    Hello to all! Thanks to all for all that I have learned while lurking the past few weeks. I do have a couple questions. First, is it common to lose a sense for the flavors of the vape towards the end of the day? I do not go through that much juice, and am not vaping heavily, but I just can't...
