    Another FOX News / Greg Gutfeld positive eCig story.

    Mr. Gutfeld and The Five Strike again! They are calling it like it is now. They see the same motives as we do behind all of this madness. Bill Godshell and CASAA really should reach out to these folks.

    Attention Senator Harkin - They are THROWING CHILDREN in this stuff. What are you doing about it?

    Maybe this will keep you busy for a while. Stop wasting your time with eCigs! MILLIONS of kids are literally swimming in this stuff! You MUST regulate it!

    Multiple successes with Pina Colada

    Today, I made 2 more versions of Pina Colada. I've been playing around with the original recipe I found here by using koolada instead of menthol. I like it. Today's 2nd version has a bit of Jamaican Rum in it. I think I'm going to keep making 3 versions. The original with menthol, my...

    TFA is happy with me...

    I've been away from DIY for a couple of weeks due to a bad case of vaper's tongue. No juices tasted right for almost a month. My sinuses were pretty dry the whole time also. But, it cleared up last week, so I'm back in the game. Just took delivery of a fairly large TFA order. Does anyone have...

    Eh gad! The coughing.

    But not from the vaping... I have been vaping for 141 days. For the past 3 weeks, I have had a serious case of the purging cough. Big wads of phlegm that look like they have ground pepper in them (sorry for the visual). I knew that this would happen, but wow! I didn't expect to see it so soon...

    Key Lime Pie success!

    I just made up a quick 5ml batch of Key Lime Pie for my wife from page 79 of Paddymx's recipe book on the share drive. She has been asking me to make Key Lime Pie for her since the day I started. It came out wonderful! I just dripped some immediately after mixing and it is better than some of...

    Has anyone else ordered TFA Bubblegum (Juicy Style) lately?

    I have been buying Juicy Fruit eLiquid from a local B&M since early December. It is a dead ringer for the gum. When I started buying my DIY supplies, I ordered a 30ml of TFA Bubblegum (juicy style) from Wizard Labs along with some nicotine. A forum member sent me a recipe for Juicy Fruit that...

    Success! Made 4 flavors today and all of them are good!

    Whooo hoo! I spent some time today testing some of my TFA flavors, and mixing up some juice. For testing, I made up some plain 50/50 PG/VG. I used a 5ml beaker, and the small droppers TFA includes with their flavorings. I started out testing each flavor with 19 drops of base and 1 drop of...

    Travel and Vaping Heading off to Sandals Montego Bay Jamaica next week.

    Has anyone been to and vaped at any of the Sandals resorts in Jamaica? I read that Jamaica bans the use of eCigs in many locations. In my experiences at other Sandals resorts, local law enforcement did not have a presence within the confines of the resort. Thanks! Mike

    What RDA is this?

    I got my hands on an RDA. I searched google, and found conflicting information. One site said it was a Phoenix v4, it looked like an ERA on another, and one site said it was either an Octopus or a Squid. It said "atomizer" on the little label on the store shelf. I just pointed to it and said...

    First batch - Butterscotch

    Last night, I realized that I was down to my last 2 bottles of eliquid. So, I did what any self respecting vaper should do. Go down to the basement and mix up a bottle. I made 10ml of TFA butterscotch at 15% with 5% TFA sweetener at 6mg. When I dripped it right after mixing it, it reminded me...

    Bought nic from 3 vendors. Only one smells "flavorless"

    On January 3rd, I placed 3 orders for 120ml 100mg VG nicotine. Yesterday, a friend and I unsealed them. My bottles have not arrived, so we only did a quick smell test instead of diluting them down and putting them in new bottles. The first one of the 3 we opened was "odorless". It had a...

    All of the DIY supplies I ordered have arrived. What to try first?

    I placed 5 orders and all of my supplies are in. I still need graduated cylinders, more syringes, and beakers. Here's what I have. If anyone could recommend a couple of recipies to try based on my available flavorings I would love to hear about them! I have not opened any of the nic bottles...

    Today marks 2 full months without no analogs!

    I make my living analyzing things. So, why would vaping be any different? I started vaping on 11/1. Today is day #68 of vaping for me. Exactly 8 weeks without a stinky (I smoked 5 analogs during my 1st 5 days of vaping). I have spent $360.04 total on vaping in 2.27 months (I used 30 days as an...

    Sometimes, ya just gotta wonder...

    This morning, I stopped by my local B&M to get one last bottle of one of my favorites before my DIY stuff arrives. I put in my order and paid for it. I was standing around waiting for them to bring it out to me when this older gentleman walks in and talks to one of the employees. He brought a...

    Getting ready to place my first order for flavorings. TFA question

    Hello everyone. As the title states, I'm going to place an order today for my 1st set of flavorings. I'm hoping to start off simple (famous last words). What I would like is to end up with is the proper materials to make several flavors. To start with, I'd like to end up with Juicy Fruit (my...

    Preparing for the worst case scenario. Please help me check my math before I buy...

    Hello ECF DIY experts. I am not currently making DIY liquids yet. I started vaping on 11/1, and am currently on day #30 with no analogs. I want to keep it that way long into the future. Given the current uncertainty about the state of vaping in this country, I plan on buying enough nic base...

If you had asked me if I was going to quit smoking tomorrow on Halloween night, I would have said "Probably not". Then, it just happened... Thanks to all of you for the help, support, and advice.
