    Ridiculous FUD Article of the Week - Helena Independent Record

    I think that many people here forget that most of the people on the other side of this debate cut their teeth battling Big Tobacco and thus have learned to fight dirty and for keeps, they are not predisposed to claims that they see to be "too good to be true" nor are they particularly troubled...

    "Scientists" use vapor to study cigarette smoke. Science laughs.

    It's a Yahoo news article I seriously doubt it provides sufficient data for you to critique the study's design or methodology. I'm pretty sure most people don't make a habit of crawling into an MRI to .........e but they've still used it as a method to study human brain activities during...

    "Scientists" use vapor to study cigarette smoke. Science laughs.

    Ok, I think you look crazy when you get all worked up by what appears to be perfectly reasonable and legitimate avenue of study.

    "Scientists" use vapor to study cigarette smoke. Science laughs.

    I don't get all the drama here, In fact the idea makes perfect sense. Study the act (ritual) and possibly the effect of nicotine in isolation from other factors that may or may not have contributed to the addictiveness of cigarettes. In fact it provides the possibility of double blind trials...

    Just did this while I wait on the Aerotank I ordered. Works nicely, no more leaving my PT2 loosely screwed to be able to draw air through it. thanks.

    Protank 2 restricted airflow solution. Quick, Easy and Free.

    Just tried this trick, took some doing to get the second O-ring to seat on top of the first but one I did and got everything screwed down it seems to be working nicely. PT2 screwed down all the way on my Provari and I've got airflow as opposed to having to leave it slightly loose. I've ordered...

    Provari worth it?

    While I generally agree with your sentiment, I do wonder about this statement. Have you compared the two side to side? I suspect not because I have an MPV and a Provari and the only time my MPV has gotten any use was when my Provari was away for repair. Unfortunately its one of those...

    Dropping Provari on the ground?

    It's not indestructible, it's pretty darn close but if it's dropped just right you can damage it. I did one time I dropped it and the contact on the circuit board broke off. Of course the great thing about Provari is that I just sent it in to get repaired and had it back like new in a couple...

    Any tanks that dont leak?!?! seriously!

    Tank/carto, it's the carto that's the problem if you are getting flooding. I had no end of flooding with cheap smoktech crap, however my Boge's never flooded. I got a fair amount of seepage with my Iclear 30 mostly when I layed the device any way other than standing. My pro-tank II is a champ...

    Problem with kanger protank II and provari

    In my experience the problem with the pro-tank is that people don't always get the coils screwed in completely. In fact I had managed to jam mine up very badly because I didn't realize it screwed in and couldn't figure out why it wasn't seating properly. So to start make sure you get the coil...

    Whats your all day device and why?

    Silver Provari 2.5 18650 extender, Kangar Pro-Tank 2. That's it I've got a MPV for a backup but it only saw brief use while my Provari was in the shop. Oh yeah why, I'm a creature of habbit. I find something I like and stick with it. I've been vaping close to 5 years and save for the various...

    Austin, Tx

    Thus far https://www.allaboutvapor.com is definitely the winner in Austin, their juice is good and their prices decent. I tried Creat-a-cig and really wanted to like them since they are much loser to my home but everything ends up with that nasty taste from the Ever-clear they use for a...

    SERIOUSLY!? Your telling me to leave and never come back.....

    I suspect that the old tried and true rule of vaping still holds, the more it looks like an analogue the worse it will perform. The problem with autos is that they have a flapper that completes the circuit, in order for said flapper to work there has to be a way for air to flow through said...

    Been Cut Off

    Well if you have two Provaris and at least 1 backup device of some sort in case a Provari has to be sent in for service, Other than liquid and toppers I fail to see what else you'd even need to spend money on ;)

    Another smoker noob trying to convert. Final Stop?

    There are two keys to making it stick IMO, One you have to want to quit smoking, if you aren't committed it you won't succeed. Be prepared for withdrawal, there is a lot of stuff in cigarettes that your body will miss besides nicotine. You can expect to go through most of the physical...

    Max reliability / least hassle APV setup?

    I'm sorry but that's a load of crap, Reliability is a function of material and design. A solid product will survive under circumstances that a less solid one will not. More importantly something that is capable of surviving extreme situations is less likely to fail under more mundane...

    Provari 5 days old not working

    The Coil in the protank actually screws into the base. if it isn't screwed in completely and properly then the post won't stick out far enough to make contact and it won't make a good connection. I actually managed to get mine jammed up to the point where it took pliers to disassemble. should...

    Max reliability / least hassle APV setup?

    I'll never bad mouth a mechanical, my Prodigies (V1 and V3) both served me well, I was a hard sell on the Provari due to my concerns about potential failure of electronic parts. But I have to admit I <3 my Provari, the consistency is just amazing. With a mechanical you'll never get two pulls...
