    Nicotine & Alkaloid Data for Smoked & Smokeless Tobacco

    I just came upon a paper in my reading that may be of interest to others. The paper's abstract is here; full text is gated, but I have it as a .pdf for anyone who wants to dig into it. Jacob et al. Minor tobacco alkaloids as biomarkers for tobacco use: comparison of users of cigarettes...

    Cut-off time on the KR808 Manual Mega batteries?

    Just a quick question: I know the KR808d-1 regular-length batteries offered by Drew have an extended (7 sec) cutoff, but what's the cut-off on the Mega KR808s? Is it the standard 5 sec? I can't seem to find this info on Nhaler.com or here in the forum...though I feel like it's been mentioned...

    Best throat hit besides ATF?

    I've experienced some variation in throat hit on the TV nic liquids (Butterfinger and Mocha = excellent, Pistachio Ice Cream and German Chocolate Cake = milder) and while I know TH can be subjective, I'm looking for input on my next order. I'm not a big cinnamon fan so the ATF didn't quite suit...

    Throat hit diminishing over time?

    Has anyone else found that their feeling of a throat hit seems to diminish over time? I've been using juices that started out with a great throat hit (TastyVapor 12mg Butterfinger and Mocha most days, switched off with several other flavors and lower nic levels). Vaped on 5/6v so I'm getting a...

    Where Can I Get A......? Blank Greencig Cartomizers?

    I keep hearing how nice the Greencig cartomizers are. I enjoy my KR8 cartos but I'm interested in how the Greencigs differ. I see that Nhaler.com has filled Greencig cartos, but I usually prefer to fill my own. Anyone heard of a source for blanks? Barring that, how's the Vanilla flavor?

    Painting brass end caps on a mod?

    I got my Xhaler a few weeks ago, and it's running very well. But I'm not a big fan of the brass battery-connector/endpiece, and especially next to the stainless steel 510 adapter, it looks awkward. I'd like to make the brass battery connector matte black, at least where it shows (i.e...

    Juice from Alternasmokes - thoughts?

    I just purchased several juices from Alternasmokes during their liquidation sale - chocolate, fruit sampler, caramel, sweet plum, peanut butter, 555. IIRC. Then I saw a mention here that their juice is Dekang, with which I've had a bad experience from two other sellers. Errrr. I'm hoping...

    # of refills? And when do you toss a carto?

    Just started using cartomizers recently with the 510 adapter, so I have a question... How many refills do you find you get with each cartomizer? And how do you usually tell when a cartomizer is just not worth using anymore -- what starts to go wrong? (I've also heard mention that the...

    Keeping your filled carts and drying atomizers upright

    I've been looking for a way to keep my atomizers set down on a thick paper towel while they drain at night (or after rinsing), and to keep my cartomizers mouth end-up while I'm waiting for the liquid to settle into the polyfill. Propping them up is unreliable (any little motion of the...

    A name for the buying sprees induced by fears of ban?

    So I find I'm inclined to spend money on spare attys (and sometimes batteries and unflavored nicotine) whenever I'm seized by fears of a ban or read a convincing argument for losing access to our e-cig equipment soon. This isn't a question about whether or not a ban will happen (there are...

    Your favorite prefilled cartos?

    I'm trying out KR808 cartomizers adapted to my 510 and on my Xhaler and while I'm teaching myself the tricks for refilling, I suspect there will be times when I'm just not so enthused to refill a bunch. I'd also just like to see how the factory-filled ones behave. So, what's a good source for...

    So, where are you doing holiday shopping/stocking up?

    I thought this would be a great way to share info on Christmas/holiday sales and mention your favorite vendors at the same time! I'm thinking I will buy from: * TastyVapor.us -- 3-for-2 sale until Dec. 15th with code on the home page * Heaven Gifts -- holiday sale starting Dec. 4th * Mist-Stix...

    Universal USB Charger

    Just wondering - does ELP's Universal USB Charger work on KR808D-1 batts as well as the Joye models (e.g. 510)? It looks different from the little USB dongles sold by some of the China suppliers as "Universal" so I'm wondering if this one has the same versatility (I like the longer cord on...

    KR808 vs. 510 batteries, and charger compatibility question

    Two questions: 1/ Anyone know if the KR808 batts work in the 510 wall charger? (The little USB "universal charger" for KR808s claims to charge 510s and other models, so I assume the threads aren't terribly dissimilar...) 2/ I'm waiting for a 510 batt/KR808 cartomizer adapter, but I'm curious...
