    Loose batteries?

    I understand it's not safe to carry 18650s loose - which is fine as I don't use them - but do we need to exercise any precautions about sealed mods - i.e. iStick's? Always really paranoid about having them in my pockets. Is two together OK?

    Anyone else accidentally give up drinking?!

    Since I've (almost) given up smoking, an unexpected side effect has been that I've effortlessly (almost) given up drinking alcohol as well. Where I used to be out on the patio with some beers and a pack of ciggies, I'm now sitting on the bed vaping and browsing the web. Not complaining - much...

    Forgetting how to smoke!

    I'm still dual-fuelling at the moment, but down to just 2-3 cigs a day most days. What's happening now is that I'm forgetting how to smoke, especially since I purchased a subohm mod and tank and started DTL. Just DTLd a Marlboro Light by mistake - head rush and ouch! Think I'm almost ready for...

    Can anyone help with my new SubOhm Innokin Kroma?

    Hi! Took delivery of this today: Innokin iTaste Kroma Kit Absolutely love the mod and tank - really solid, love the semi-recessed tank, and the top loading seems truly leak free and really easy to use. The screen brightness is a bit rubbish but the overall quality is great and feels like a...

    Charging Paranoia

    Please can someone put my mind at rest! I'm using only the USB charging cables that came with my devices, labelled DC5.0V/2A. I've been charging my mods (an iStick 30w and a Nano version of same) by plugging into the USB ports on my MacBook Pro, only ever one at a time. Is this safe / OK...

    Recommend my next shiny thing!

    OK, so I have shiny thingitis and am in the market for my next kit! So far I have a 30w iStick, a Nano version of the same and an Aspire Premium kit, plus a bunch of tanks (several CS Airs, a CS nano, a Nauti Mini and a Nauti 2). I'd like to get some kind of subohm setup, but I have a few...

    Lungs clearing out?

    Hi! I know nobody can substitute for my doctor on this but I have doctor phobia so I'm asking here! Been vaping about three weeks and have practically given up cigs (only 2 in last 4 days!) My lungs feel odd! Not struggling to breathe but almost like I have too much air?! I have asthma and...

    Does anyone else do this?

    5-6 pulls on a rich tobacco. Right, that's enough of that. Bit of a dessert flavour, ooh delicious. Hmm, that's getting a bit cloying now. Nice blackcurrant menthol, yep that's the ticket, palate cleansed now. What next, ooh yes, some strawberry mojito flavour. Repeat to fade, all evening...

    Mixing liquids

    Hi everyone! I've been vaping a mix of two liquids - a McFlavors Red Tobacco I love the taste of, and an unflavoured WTA for the WTA part, I just mixed them at a ratio of 80/20 and gave it all a good shake, which I do each time I fill up. The 80% part is high PG, the 20% WTA is high VG. While...

    Gurgly Nautilus 2 Tank?

    I love my Nautilus 2 tank in terms of look and feel, and the flavour and everything else is great...when it's working right. But... It seems to go gurgly, greasy and leaky all the time, seemingly at random. I can use it, place it down for an hour, go back to it and it's gone gurgly. Liquid...

    How soon did you feel healthier?

    I've only been vaping (this time around) for a week, but in that whole time I've had a maximum of three cigs per day. Went swimming this afternoon, and while I'm still seriously unfit(!) I'm pretty sure those lengths felt easier than before. I seem to have more of a sense of smell already as...

    Aspartame?

    I'm on quit smoking / start vaping attempt 3, and it's going pretty well. I've had about 7 cigarettes since last Saturday :-) However...what I need to find out about is aspartame being used as a sweetener in eJuice. I KNOW I'm allergic to aspartame. It causes odd little muscle ticks, usually...

    How much is too much?!

    Hi there, Today I finally got a proper eCig - one of these O cigarro eletrónico Impact which is an eGo derivative, so I'm told. I am REALLY liking it, but I'm struggling a bit to work out how much puffing equates to a real cigarette, if that makes any sense. In fact, I think I'm perhaps...

    Please could someone ID this ecig?

    Hi all, After a couple of failed attempts with "cigalikes" I've just bought my first "proper" ecig. I live in Portugal and have one of these O cigarro eletrónico Impact Please could someone tell me what kind it is prior to rebranding, I think it's an eGo something. So far I'm quite happy...

    New Member: Some Advice Please?

    Hi there, I've tried to use ecigs to help me quit smoking a couple of times before, without much success. I'm after something straightforward and as close to real cigs as possible - I'm not interested in messing with liquids and parts, so I'm trying to find something "off the shelf" that I...
