    Reo Grand Mod parts

    Hello! I have a couple of Reos that I use on a regular basis. My Reo Grand that I use as a daily driver had an issue that I couldn’t have predicted. The contact firing pin/bar that touched the positive end happened to break. While I have a replacement pin, I realized it is my only replacement...

    Vaping alternatives sought

    I am an educator and will be spending 10 days in Europe with students. I cannot vape while there due to school regulations of chaperones. What is the best way to help me cope? I can easily got a school day without thinking about vaping. Travel is a huge trigger for me. I make my own liquid at...

    Stock Up Trasher Mods for World Travellers

    So, this post is a little different from the others. I travel out of the country relatively frequently and do not want to risk having to lose my stockpile, so I'm looking for mods that are insanely cheap mods that offer on board charging with a removeable battery that if needed I can leave...

    200 mg Base Question

    I believe this is allowed as per the forum rules, please remove if not. Does anyone mix with 200 mg base? I'm thinking about purchasing some but am a little hesitant. Do you take any extra precautions that you do not do with 100 mg base? Are accidental spills terribly dangerous or is it still a...

    Wrong base

    Had the wrong base sent to me. Just contacted the seller, it is marked as more than half the strength I ordered. I'm sure they will right the error, but in this scenario, do we send back the product or is it essentially viewed as their loss, your gain. What would you do?

    Gearbest experience

    First time I ordered from GearBest or any company from China directly. Purchased a Nitecore i4 and a RX200. The items were supposed to leave from a US warehouse but came from Hong Kong. The order was placed on March 27, I received the order today one week later. Let me just say I'm impressed...

    REO bottle fix?

    Trying to find the answer but haven't been able to locate it. Purchased a used REO and spare bottles were sent with it. They have the nipple portion and a cap, however no hole punched out for the tube. Are these able to be converted to squonking bottles or do I have to purchase a special tip so...

    One Year

    I know it's not as impressive as the other people on here, but I am proud to admit I have officially not smoked a cigarette at all in the past year as of 2:30 this morning. I cannot believe that I've made it this long. It has definitely been the longest since I started when I was a teen. For...

    Lesson learned in DIY

    I learned a valuable lesson tonight when I did my DIY. I was rushing to get two mixes out to test. Had everything set up nicely. In my speediness, I did not check the syringe on my VG needle and did not know it was loose. It popped off when filling a bottle. I made sure to put extra in as I'd...

    Smoking dreams

    Proud of my progress, but annoyed with the smoking dreams. You would think that they would end by now but they haven't at four months. For those that are more veteran than I, do you still have dreams of smoking? It's almost like my mind gives in at night to the temptation but wants nothing to do...

    Obligatory Celebration and Purchases Post

    So here's the story (briefly) almost 4 months smoke free. Bought a setup at my three month free date. At what months do you celebrate being smoke free with purchases? I celebrated 1 month and 3 month but should I also do birthday or not?

    Wow. 100 days.

    I was looking at my vape mate and noticed I've been smoke free 100 full days. I cannot believe that it's been so easy. I am just hoping taste will improve again. Some of the flavors still seem rather muted and finding myself tending to want stronger menthol and gum like flavors.

    Possible Progress... Gaining a win?

    Haven't had much chance to watch the broadcast today, but will shortly. I also saw this link posted. The FDA Says E-Cigarettes Are Less Harmful Than Smoking | Motherboard My question is do you guys think we had a small victory today? Do you think the link is a bogus report similar to The Onion?

    Long Term PV/Mech Mod Advice/Suggestions

    Let me preface this with: I love my MVP 2 to death and have my spinners as backups but let's be realistic. Eventually the batteries will no longer hold a charge. I am a little worried about possible upcoming regulations but not terribly worried just yet. For this reason, I am interested in...

    Novel Device, Great Potential To Improve Vaping Acceptance

    So I was doing some late night browsing on YouTube. You know the kind, click one video and then the next and then how did I end up HERE?!?! Anyway, I saw a video of a device from New Zealand and thought, wow, if this became more common/popular, then community view of vaping would improve. Then I...

    Vaping Device Casualty

    Day 62 here. Pleased with my experience with vaping. In the process of saving money as I'm in between jobs (enough saved up to hold me over).
