    What is an e-cigarette?

    Forgive me, i do not mean to be flippant but i've been out of the loop for a long time and just recently got the hint that FDA regulations might actually be a thing, or, a thing that will shortly become a thing. The forum has grown since i last visited, it's too big for me and i just want...

    OMG You're All Gonna Die! Again!

    Could someone smarter than i am please address this? The relevant sensationalism du jour: Study: E-cigarettes damage healthy cells ^Just an example, but most the news says the same thing copied and pasted. The "source" that most said cut-and-paste jobs are citing: Study Links the Liquid Used...

    ECHO-e Adapter for Box Mods and Such-like

    Maybe this has been done before, i dunno. I just got my first 5-pack of ECHO-e carts, the description said "fits any 510 battery connection" but it didn't say the threads are recessed so they wouldn't fit my Roughstack or my box mods. I put one on an old 510 battery and the awesomeness was...

    EWWww *cough*

    Anyone else get a deep phlegm-y cough from vaping? When i first started and hadn't been to this forum or anything i sorta imagined myself into a tizzy over the intentional inhalation of vapor, thinking it might produce something kin to pneumonia if it sat in my lungs. Didn't happen and i was...

    My Sig Is Gone

    I mean my signature told me to the minute how long i'd been quit and to the penny how much money i've saved and the former was very nice to know but the latter was absolutely critical, for showing the female before making e-cig-related purchases. I would be OK with this if only someone...

    Important Notice (Atties & Liquid)?

    My order came with an "important notice!" according to "extensive testing" people are using "unsuitable" liquids and wrecking their atomizers. Question is, what was the composition of the unsuitable liquids used in testing? I ordered DeKang Liberty Liquid, but i had planned to cut it with VG...

    Fix my 510 Passthru?

    The wires on my passthrough broke right at the body where they gozzinta, from stress and movement i guess. I couldn't get the end off to get at the wires, so i cut it off with a tubing cutter. The wire strands seem to be coated with some sort of non-conductive... stuff... i've never seen...

    5 New 510 Attys, Now What?

    Do i leave them all in the packaging, or do i take them all out and burn them off, to make sure they're good while the warranty is in force? I know, it sounds like a "well do what's sensible" type question, but i like to keep new things, new, and i've gotta wonder if the plastic baggies and...

    Envy, Don't

    The Envy was my first e-cig, i bought it at a local tobacco shop before the Oregon AG got to them. I'm grateful it was there because it was my intro to vaping, and i only got it because it was available at the same time i was running out of tobacco. You can see the PV here... Envy Cigarettes...

    Green Dish Scratchy Pad

    Further adventures in the wilderness, far from civilization and stores that have, you know, stuff... I found this under my kitchen sink... ... and i've been vaping on it for a day and a half or so, and it's been the best stuff i've found so far, me being unable to just go out to the...

    What Becomes of the Alcohol?

    For those who've already seen my query i apologize for subjecting you to it again, but i didn't get an answer. Someone who isn't me has a problem with alcohol and doesn't want it in his system, so he wants to know if alcohol is more or less (or, more more than less) rendered inert in the...

    I was browsing for supplies one day and i browsed right past a vendor who was selling pre-cut blue foam plugs in little baggies. Can't find the place again, anyone know where i might have been? Thanks, - joe

    Flavoring/Mixing Help... Now Please?

    My wife has gone into the big city and will be in some nutrition/organic food stores, and also near Wally World and most major supermarket chains. I'm sorry to say i haven't been researching enough, and this is my only chance to get flavoring/mixing supplies before Christmas. 1.) Has...

    I Object...

    ...to the software automagically assigning the definition "Google Page Rank" to the acronym "PR". Upsets my sensibilities. BTW i'm a Web Guy for a living and i've been working with forum software since it was invented, and i've also run my share of forums. I have references as to my talent...

    Woozy...

    OK first of all DON'T BUY AN "ENVY" E-CIGARETTE if you can help it. It was all that was available locally when i made my impulsive and life-altering decision, and while i'll be forever grateful that it was, i had no idea what a piece of **** i'd bought until today when my 510 kit came...

    Put that in your PV and Vape It

    At the risk of posting something that's been posted a hunnert times already... Increasing levels of nicotinic alkaloids Does the possibility of genetically engineered nicotine production sorta shift the debate? I mean there seems to be a default belief that e-cigs are near enough "tobacco"...

    Did i or did i not "Quit Smoking"?

    Yeah, it seems too easy. Of COURSE i quit smoking a week ago, when i started inhaling vapor. But this forum is giving me lessons in semantics and subtleties and the question has ramifications all over the board, including on the legal front. I have to say up front that most of the time i'm...
