    Throat problems?

    I'm not familiar with the Aspire K1, but if it has an adjustable air flow, increasing that in the morning may help. I find that an airier draw at first is less harsh on my throat and after a bit I tighten it up.

    Vape Wild. Yay or Nay?

    I prefer home-grown organic, free range worms. Though milking those little suckers can get tricky. ;-)

    Vape Wild. Yay or Nay?

    Just to open another can of worms, many, if not most, fruit flavors contain citric acid, which is made commercially by fermenting black mold in a sugar medium. The mold is filtered out and further processing produces citric acid. Fully half of the world's supply comes from China and we all know...

    sticky spit

    Vaping does cause dehydration as any experienced vaper can tell you, but that dehydration is primarily in the mouth. It does not cause clinical dehydration affecting the entire body and all its organs and systems. Vaping does not cause fingers and toes to shrivel. Nor does it cause the liver...

    sticky spit

    PG (propylene glycol) grabs hold of moisture in the air and on surfaces. It is/was pumped into the ventilation systems of some hospitals and hotels - doesn't kill germs but makes it more difficult for them to grow. It's added to baked goods to help keep them fresh. Part of why Twinkies don't...

    Quitting it all!

    I applaud your efforts and wish you continued success! As an older adult who is now retired and doing some work at home, vaping has other benefits for me. There are preliminary studies that suggest that nicotine at lower levels can be beneficial to attention span, memory retention and may delay...

    Vape Wild. Yay or Nay?

    Maybe it was my 20 years as a Navy wife and raising 3 boys, but to my corrupted ear Mutha Custard sounded a bit too close to another well-known phrase. Just sayin' ;-)

    Need to know: Can you suggest the most economical tank & coils?

    I second the Kanger tanks. Once you get the hang of it, they're fairly easy and very economical to rebuild. I just did a dozen over the weekend. Just got 100' of 30 ga kanthal for 3.80. That's 1,200 inches, @ 4-5" per coil which comes out to @ a penny and a half per coil and enough for hundreds...

    Fresh meat -- Some questions

    Yes, it is a coil rebuilt using 30 gauge. I do occasionally use stock coils, single and double; they seem to hold up as well.

    Little itty bitty mods under $100.

    NASCAR vaping ;-) Myself, I lean towards a modest, economical vehicle that gets me where I want to be - not smoking - Beetle vaping. ;-)

    Fresh meat -- Some questions

    This happens to be what I'm vaping now - 1.8 ohm coil/cotton wick, PT3 mini with AFC base on an iStick 20 at 7W/3.5V, On Cloud Custard 6 nic, 50/50. No dry hits, no burnt taste, no frying, no problems. Good vapor and flavor. I have read of some having issues, but that's not been my experience.

    Feeling sick and going to quit vaping

    Is there some reason you're using 18/24 nic? Some people can handle that level but I would collapse from that. Everyone's metabolism is different. I started with 12 nic and even that was too much. I went to 3 and 0 but found myself sneaking analogs here and there. 6 is a good level for me...

    Vape Wild. Yay or Nay?

    Well, my order came in today! I placed 3 orders on the 28th minutes apart, one to VW in Dallas, one to a place just outside of Tampa, one to a place just outside of San Diego. The TX and CA orders shipped that day, the FL order the next day. Got the TX order today, should get the FL order...

    Ultrasonic Cleaner Query

    Ultrasonic cleaners can be the big industrial ones mechanics and gun owners use, but I think for this use most people use the home version of the game, AKA a jewelry cleaner. I had one years ago and it's good for high end jewelry -- precious gemstones and metals -- but good for costume jewelry...

    Vape Wild. Yay or Nay?

    I ordered the sample box (double rainbow, on cloud, tiramisu, carnaval apple, smurf cake, mcdelicious) today at 12:50 and it shipped at 5:50 (email times). I'm in Houston and this is my first order with VW so am waiting to see shipping time and flavors.

    One week into vaping and I think I chose the wrong tank :\

    The PT3 mini is also an option as you can use the single coil PT2 heads in it for now, and when you're ready to tackle rebuilding, get the dual coil heads but rebuild as single coils. (Get the ones with the silicone caps similar to the single coil ones.) I have both and find the dual coil heads...

    Not happy to smell the world, Am I the only weirdo?!

    I had one like that. He spent more time faking a shower than it would to have actually taken the shower. Then he discovered girls [emoji6]

    Annoying vaping issue

    Same here. It only does it with my e-reader. Maybe I shouldn't have mentioned it. The ANTZ might drum up some narrative to show vaping really is dangerous. [emoji33] As some have suggested, I'll have to be careful to redirect the vapor as part of a reading comprehension harm reduction program...

    Annoying vaping issue

    It doesn't do it with my cell either. Just my Kindle.

    Annoying vaping issue

    I think the technology in tablets/phones is different from old-school Kindles. The page is static and only uses power when it rewrites which is why the battery can last days and even weeks. I do need to be more mindful of how I vape when reading or I'll miss the clues to whodunit. [emoji6]
