    How long before your sense of smell returned fully??

    A couple of weeks ago I was walking round town and I could smell the smokers from a good few yards away. I thought that was it, my sense of smell was back. Boy was I wrong!! Half an hour ago I went to the bathroom to blow my nose. OMG, I mean a massive OMG here!! Straight away I was hit by...

    Lemon oil. Safe or not?

    I've been playing with the idea of using supermarket flavors. Only one I've found so far that I'm interested in is 'Pure Lemon Essence' from Nielsen-Massey Vanillas in the good ol' USA. Ingredients are listed as Alcohol 85%, Oil of Lemon 10%, and water. I've evaporated the alcohol off, and I...

    Just seen my first e-cig advert

    I'm gobsmacked. I never thought e-cig adverts would ever be shown on the television. But it's just happened on ITV+1, so an hour ago on ITV. VIP Cig. Anyone else see it? With all the plethora surrounding e-cig and all the bad info I AM glad it's happening.

    A Little Rant - ohm's law is not a power calculation

    Any electrical/electronics engineer will tell you ohms law is NOT a calculation referencing power. Ohm's law is purely the relationship between voltage, resistance and current (amps). ie V=IR, I=V/R and R=V/I. That's it, nothing to do with power. Of course this formula can be explained in...

    Chest pain? Nah, I'm coughing TOO hard!!

    Woke up Wednesday with bad pains in my chest, like someone had kicked me in the sternum. Breathing was difficult, as was bending, stretching and lifting. I didn't worry too much and made a normal appointment with my family doc. The doctor straight away ran a 12 lead ECG and found nothing...

    I'm proud to vape with the smokers.

    I don't care me. So they want me to vape in the smoker's area? So I do. Imagine the faces on the smokers and the questions when I whip my nautilus/sid out and blow rings around them. What the heck is that? Where? How? So far I've helped get 12 peeps onto vaping, 4 of them haven't smoked a...

    DKS Anice flavor lacking.......flavor?

    I'm making my own juices atm, anise being my all-day flavor. I got hold of a few anise flavors from dks and even though it states on the bottle '3-6 drops per 10ml', I find that totally unbelievable. I'm having to add 18 drops per 10ml just to get anywhere near the strength of high-street brands...

    My next step

    I'm a relative n00b to vaping, after only 2 weeks. I started the normal way with the cheap batteries and clearomizers from a local shop and liked it, though I wasn't satisfied and felt it wasn't enough. So, figuring spending a little more would make me WANT to stick with it I've invested in a...
