    Are YOU a Tootle Puffer??

    After trying lots of the gear, over a long time, I have become a tootle puffer! Don't scorn or hate me. It's just that I like small and portable that is discreet and functional. Current gear of choice used 100% of the time: The smallest V2 silver battery (the blue LED one) and a V2 Congress...

    BBC Article: Ban on vaping in enclosed spaces pushes ahead

    This is interesting to me, as it highlights a change I've seen creeping along in the UK: check out who is now against such legislation and is brave enough to say so. The headline is depressing, but the message to the public detailing who doesn't want to see a ban and who wants to see more...

    Does anybody even use ecigs anymore?

    ME, I am! I'm still a fan of my little V2s. As I type, I have their power-cig plugged into the PC here. I use their refillable cartridges and their Congress flavour quite a lot still. I also like having an outside solution that gets lost inside my jeans pocket; they're good for stealth vaping too.

    Brace yourselves new Formaldehype junk study to be released Jan 21

    I saw this on Reddit earlier and, after posting there, I thought I'd lurch over here to see what you guys were saying. I think most of it's been said, but I can always find a little more to say, even if it turns out to be pretty much the sort of thing I've said before. The page Reddit linked...

    Why am I coughing when vaping?

    When I first vaped I had the same issue, but it went away after a week/10 days. I have gone back to smoking, for a week or so, twice since I've been vaping (strangely, I don't feel as devastated by some that I've done that thing), and each time I have gone back to vaping, the same thing has...

    breaking news,child dead after ingesting nicotine.

    Very sad news to read on my first visit to ECF for months. I'm torn between leaving 'very sad' as my comment or going on and sharing the thoughts that went through my mind as I was reading multiple news stories around the web - I made an immediate search from the OP. Sharing thoughts wins...

    Incredible act of kindness and good will by fellow member.

    The OP's post was a pleasure to read. I bet ClintS is groaning a little about being 'outted' however :laugh: The world is fast and tough now, and it makes me happy and glad to see that some people still love the other people; kisses to you ClintS and OP both. I just had to quote the post I did...

    A visit to the doctor

    I'm English. Today I attended an appointment with my GP (General Practitioner - a Doctor) to get the results of a blood test. The results were fine although I'm a terrible drunk; it seems that due to genetics I have an Olympic standard liver. Whilst chatting, the conversation turned to...

    Using chargers from different brands

    I never mix, never. I wouldn't even like to push a measly 80mA more than a battery was expecting into it. Also I charge my batts in a biscuit tin. Modern batteries have scary amounts of stored energy in them. I'm not this jumpy in other areas of my life btw; it is worth being cautious with...

    Things I learned on Twitter... Kids, Parents and Anti-Vaping.

    I mostly agree, but I can't agree that it's always wrong for children to vape. If I had a child that had got hooked on smoking then I would buy that child an e-cig myself. And don't all rush to tell me that if my child smoked it would mean that I was a bad parent: when I was 14 I was...

    Epilepsy and the patch

    The nic is good for all sorts of conditions it seems. I've seen links here in ecg, but I'll post another that I just looked up: HowStuffWorks "How can nicotine be good for me?"

    strong vaper but likes small vape pens

    V2 cig-a-likes are cool imo. They sell all you would need, and you are not tied in to their pre-filled cartos either: they sell refillable cartomizers (I use them) and little tanks that fit on top. Their original batts come in a manual version to (a button to power instead of vacuum switch) so...

    Did vaping help you quit smoking?

    Great post mate :toast: Anyway, about me now: e-cigs have done it for me too. I was on 24mg for most of the last six months and only just stepped down to 18. I don't think it's worth cutting the nic too soon and risking relapse myself. It nice to have a vape with a coffee or some booze and...

    He's good. I particularly like the way he takes a close look at the output on a scope. My favourite guys have now split to their own youtube channels, damn shame as they were funny as hell imo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U23LOL-QGSQ
