    A new GG review for a previous model

    *shrug* You can disagree because we're dealing with personal preferences here, not hard facts. People also have different tolerance levels for what we perceive as hassles. I can tell you that I'd be aggravated the very first time I was told that I'd have to adjust the spring for different batts...

    A new GG review for a previous model

    I actually get what he meant about the GGT being "too versatile." It's not a complaint that it will take all the different battery combinations, but that it can be a hassle to do so, especially on the fly what with adding and removing pieces and adjusting the spring. With a regular mod, the...

    low res atty...and dripper...from nhaler

    I was thrilled with my LR atties at first. But yesterday (day two), I started having trouble with the first one. It had a really bad burnt taste, like the atty was dry even though it wasn't. I switched to the other one today. Six hours later, it's dead, producing no heat at all. So after three...

    So who else is anticipating the birth of their Chuck in the next few weeks?

    Of course, USPS tracking numbers are about useless. :rolleyes: Most people seem to get their orders before the tracking even indicates that the packages are in their states.

    new and wondering how to quit the e cigarette after it works

    You should be able to drop your nicotine level so slowly that you never actually notice it. Patches start off at 21mg, then immediately drop by 1/3 to 14mg. With the PV, you could drop 2mg at a time if you wanted to. And as others have mentioned, once you're at 0 nic, the physical cravings will...

    Research of E-cigs?

    That was out of line. Since you say that it gave you a "burning sensation in [your] mouth, like inhaling plastic or something," your cart and/or atty might have been dry. To avoid getting liquid in your mouth, you draw on it softly, not as hard as you would to take a drag off a cigarette. You...

    Battery Info for the Chuck

    Drozd repeated most of the info, but if you still want the thread, it's here: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/nhaler/77197-low-resistance-magnum-atomizers-20.html#post1185691 I would have posted it before, but I wasn't sure of the forum etiquette involved since it's to another...

    Battery Info for the Chuck

    It's usually the partial explanations that don't show the connections that start reading like Charlie Brown's teacher to me. :rolleyes: So, I'm grateful. BTW, your explanation on another supplier's forum concerning how the new LR atties work convinced me to try a couple. Got them this morning...

    Battery Info for the Chuck

    Thanks, Drozd! A lot of these battery discussions have been confusing the hell out of me, but I understood that explanation. :)

    Battery Info for the Chuck

    There's something I've been wondering. LiMn batteries are safer chemistry, but essentially unprotected. That's a fair trade-off for me under ordinary circumstances. However, there are a few extraordinary circumstances we sometimes face with PVs that seem to come up rather frequently in scary...

    Are e-cigs going to be effective for me?

    I just want to say that one does not HAVE to be immediately that dedicated to the PV. I did not quit smoking immediately, but I did reduce my daily cig count by half almost immediately, and I've been slowly reducing even more over the last six weeks. Last week, I only had two cigs a day. Today...

    All sites claim "No odor"

    My husband says he can smell it, and it makes him hungry. :lol: And my oldest son says occasionally he's walking through the room and catches a whiff of chocolate. He's not unhappy about this. :) My husband has wanted me to quit smoking the entire twenty years we've been together, so he's just...

    New "Turbo" Design Cartomizer Feedback Thread

    Love the license plate. :D And frankly, I love your response to the teacher and DARE officer, too. When we're accused of brainwashing our children, my oldest son smiles at the person and says, "Yeah, that's why they're teaching us logic." Most people consider us definitely part of the lunatic...

    New "Turbo" Design Cartomizer Feedback Thread

    Yeah, I get that a lot. :rolleyes::lol: People tell me it's the Panem et Circenses and the Μολὼν λαβέ bumper stickers that usually clue them in. :cool: Thanks to public schools, my nephew has asked my little sister several times (loudly and in public) why she does drugs. Because if one smokes...

    New "Turbo" Design Cartomizer Feedback Thread

    *sniff* Man, I :wub: you guys. I'm feeling very at home reading this thread. :lol: And re: public schools, those would be some of the (many, many) reasons we homeschool. Of course, I'm ruining my children by doing so. My oldest son (13 years old) can discuss current events and compare them to...

    China smoking? ironic

    Love this quote: "'The huge tobacco and cigarette industry and its economic impact are serious challenges to tobacco control,' said Koplan. 'But not much different from the tobacco industry in the U.S. Good health eventually trumps commercial profits.'" Hysterical. Good health my trump...

    PA menthol liquid questions

    Thank you, Switched! I'll be starting with my plain 75/25 blend and adding the FA tobacco flavoring, but this gives me a good place to start. :-) (OT: How did I smoke for more than twenty years without ever learning to spell "tobacco?" I kid you not, it takes me three tries to get it right...

    PA menthol liquid questions

    I'm sorry if this has already been discussed. I even advance searched it with Google, and I didn't find anything. Has anyone made a menthol liquid with PA's new liquid menthol? Are you happy with it? How much should I use? This is not for me. I'm not a big menthol fan. :) But I'm getting a...
