    Possible to develop a PG allergy?

    Maybe not an allergy per-say, but at least a negative reaction to PG? Used to use 80/20 and now it kills my throat after a few drags if I try anything less than 60/40 or 50/50. Don't think it's flavorings as I haven't changed my rotation lately either. Hopefully it's something else causing my...

    Finally going to spring for a decent RBA..any suggestions?

    While I'm sure this is covered ad-nauseam on a daily basis, or close to it, I thought I'd ask again.. Looking at getting an upgrade from my Smok mini RDA and really want something that'll hold more than five-ten drops at a time. Ideally a tank setup would be great, but I've only found maybe...

    Tried to avoid vaping all day..

    So, let me start this with a touch of back story.. Back when I smoked analogs, I'd have maybe one or two a night towards the end, skip nights, not even notice it. Soon as I started vaping, I noticed (as did others around me) a huge improvement in my mood, and it took me till last night to...

    Non-mechanical APV with 15s+ cut-off?

    Anybody know if there are any APVs that have longer/no automatic cut-offs? My Vamo is pretty close to what I'm looking for, but I still can't fully inhale at the pace I'd like to without it doing the automatic atty shut-off. I generally do a 15-20 second drag before my lungs are full, and I...

    Replacing caffeine with nicotine?

    Am I the only one who does this? Find it hard to believe nobody else has replaced their morning coffee with a few hits off their PV. I guess a lot of folks are trying to cut out nicotine and/or morning coffee is a ritual for them, but I find a few puffs on my PV is just plain easier than...

    Continuing to use a burnt wick?

    So, not the same ol' 'why does my wick keep burning' or similar thread, for once. I'll admit I know just why it burned, but it doesn't change the fact my Evod replacement heads and wick/kanthal supplies are still in the mail, so my question is this: Besides the taste and possible lack of...

    Question about the Mt. Baker freebie juices

    Didn't see an MBV sub-forum in the suppliers area, so apologies if this is in the wrong place, just the closest thing I could find to a 'vendor questions' area. Anybody know if you can request something more specific with the freebie liquids Mt. Baker Vapor sends along with orders over X dollar...

    Colored 808 cartos?

    Anybody know where to get cartomizers in colors besides black, stainless, and white? Preferably unbranded but I'll take what I can get if they have to have logos printed on 'em. I heard Halo supposedly has colored cartos but I only saw pre-filled on their site last time I looked. Found...

    A warning to those getting into DIY..

    First, I'm posting this in the New Members section rather than the DIY subforum simply because I think it might get a little more exposure here for the newbies, if a mod feels it should be moved, so be it. Now, on to the story: I've got a drawer full of eliquids, pre-mixed and raw supplies...

    Interesting experience regarding vapor temperature

    So, I've been looking for a 'hotter' hit practically since I started vaping, and have had little to no consistent results in the area short of using a 5v mod with LR cartos, which seems to burn them up pretty quickly. What I did notice, however, was as soon as I started mixing menthol flavors...

    Looking for a decent clearomizer

    Anybody got recommendations or links? Found these: e-Smart clearomizers - package of 5 and immediately liked them for the color selection (they've got purple!) and the fact they'll fit my current 808 batteries as well as my 510 mod with adapter, just wasn't sure if there was a better option I...

    Working on my first mod, steampunk portable/desk use.

    So, finally starting on a mod, got tired of only having my two KD808s available to me, so I picked up a pair of double-A battery boxes, a sealed 510 connector, few LEDs and appropriate resistors, need to grab a switch at some point, and am now looking for something like this brass tubing: Square...

    Amount of menthol crystals needed in a mix?

    Anybody have any experience using raw menthol crystals in 100% PG mixes? Have an excellent clove flavor here and I'm thinking of splitting it two ways since I've vaped half the bottle already and found the taste slightly lacking, was going to try a mix with sweetener, and one with menthol...

    Quick question on vapor production and the strength of the hit

    As in the topic title, I'm wondering if there's a correlation between the amount of vapor, the amount of PG/VG, and the strength of the nicotine 'hit' experienced from a single puff. I started with an unknown mixture of PG/VG that produced a rather natural vapor cloud equivilent to that of an...
