    I CAN'T BELIEVE my doctor!

    Docs are sure free with the lectures on the evils of smoking and how important it is that you quit. Many of them also advocate attending support groups. Everyone of us has a different situation, however... differing means of insurance/no insurance and what they will/will not cover. For me...

    What strength eliquid do you buy the most?

    I usually vape 11mg and 18mg much of the day, with an occasional hit from 24mg. This might be overkill, but I find I have no cigarette (analog) cravings whatsoever.

    @Kimmy... how do you clean the battery?

    A list of symptoms when quitting tobacco and changing to an ecigarette

    I quit analogs and began vaping nearly a month ago. So far it's not been much of a stretch... I no longer have cravings for smokes and am not bothered by withdrawal symptoms! As long as I have an operational battery or a pass-thru, that is. The only physical symptom I notice that's unusual is...

    Do I need to order spare batteries?

    I'd say quite a few extras as backups! Mine don't seem to last very long, and even some replacements are duds. If I didn't have a pass-thru I'd have had to go back to smoking.

    Adding different flavored juice to a pre filled Carto??

    I've been doing this a lot... refilling a pre-filled with another flavor, without rinsing the carto beforehand. Try to refill with a complementary flavor though, or you may end up with something horrid. I'm refilling menthol, Kant, coffee, chocolate, cinammon bun with 555 which seems to make...

    New flavor suggestions??

    Hmmm. Another good flavor might be honey, with perhaps a hint of spice. And Tobasco with a hint of lemon. Reminds me of a concoction I drink when I have a cold.

    Refilling the cartomizer: The Movie

    Does anyone know of a cut-away view or an "anatomy of a cartomizer?" I toasted my first so figured I could sacrifice it and take it apart to examine. I notice there's a wire amongst the batting that you can't ordinarily see. What is it and why is it there? How does the hole get off center...

    vaping in public/non smoking places ~

    I vaped last week in the elevator at the doctor's office. Of course, I was alone at the time... my first time vaping in public. So far, haven't had much opportunity to vape around people, but I don't believe I'd be inhibited.

    Best Tobacco Flavor?

    I'm very fond of Kant for its subtle, pleasant flavors. 555 is also nice, and it seems to improve itself and other flavors when you refill a cartomizer with it.

    Worst flavored juice you've ever vaped?

    I refilled several empty V4L carts (coffee, chocolate, menthol, Kant) with French Pipe and 555. French Pipe still doesn't work for me, neither straight up or mixed... and it's the worst with menthol. So far the 555 improves with the above, but haven't tried to mix it with French Pipe.

    CatMommy is not pleased.

    We're cat daddies to four here. Lots of cords and cables around, but no one seems to care. Now, if I could just get them to cough up hairballs on the tile and not on the carpet... ! Fortunately the two girls pee over the shower drain, though.

    How many post needed?

    I didn't read the rules and FAQ until later, but I think I posted in other forums before I posted here in the New Members section. The 15 quota is for acquiring more options in the User CP... like being able to have a signature line. Oh, and you can only begin a new topic in this section...

    Steve/Mark/Leaford...who reveiws your flavors?

    You can't please all the people all the time, but you can try! You may not know for sure what you like, but it sounds like you're getting to know what you don't like. That, in and of itself, is useful.

    Is taste really subjective?

    Sorry, I couldn't tell you that Cinammon Bun tastes like a cinnamon bun. There are so many variations of the bun, you know? I did vape it and it hinted to me, rather than boldly spoke. I think you're trying to nail down something that is vacuous.

    My Flavor Reviews So Far...

    I was surprised by the Almond Choco Coco in the sampler. It's one of those flavors that tasted toasty and earthy to me... very pleasant, but not a lot like the candy. I've enjoyed Chocolate and found the taste to be accurate. I also love drinking a dark French Roast coffee, but all the coffee...
