    For submariners

    Probably not that many (if any) fellow submariners on here, but figured I'd share just in case. My submarine currently has allowed the use of ecigs in port and underway since the Navy banned smoking. I actually had a lengthy discussion with my captain right after the ban went into effect and...

    Back to dripping again.

    So I've been a vaper for around 3 years, I've taken two breaks in there, but never for more than a month or two. Every time I've stopped vaping, I went right back to cigarettes. After tanks became the new thing a while back I made the switch and never went back to plain cartos or attys. After...

    Cheesecakes

    Who has a good cheesecake recipe? I'm wanting to make Amaretto Cheesecake and a Blueberry Cheesecake. I have 18mg 75/25 PG/VG base and LorAnns flavors. I've started with a small 10ml bottle made with 5% Amaretto, 10% Cheesecake and 85% base. It smells quite strong, but it hasn't steeped at...

    How to cut thick liquids

    I see some people posting that they use water to cut thick juices, and others use PGA, or just some pg. I was mainly wondering about using water. I assume it means DI water, which I have an unlimited supply of at work. Does this actually work without messing up vapor production and TH? I...

    Think I finally figured out...

    why madvapes' pre-punched cartos have such small holes! Maybe it's because the liquids they sell work perfectly in them. I got a sample pack of liquid just to try them out, and sure enough, the first liquid I filled the tank with works great with that little bitty hole. Of course, it sucks...

    Got a question for any battery geeks

    So, I've basically been a maintenance electrician in the navy for 12 years now, mainly maintaining machines and fairly simple troubleshooting. I have a very good working knowledge of electricity, but nothing very in-depth. So here's my question to the geeks; I have a 1.25 ohm dual coil carto...

    Which battery for Silver Bullet

    Just got my new sliver bullet in today. All I have is Trustfire batteries right now, but I really want to get some new ones. What's your take on the AW IMR 1600mah, or the AW 3100mah? I imagine either would work great, but the 3100mah is double the price of the 1600mah. Is there enough of a...

    My Walmart sells NJoy, what's yours sell?

    Saw some posts about Walmarts starting to carry ecigs, so I went through the tobacco register tonight to see what we have here. Most people were talking about Mystics or something, so I was a little surprised to see a very large display of NJoy products. They are cheaper than the website sells...

    18650 mod for less than $80

    So I have these three 18650s laying around, and I'm sending back my shine mod due to some battery contact issues. What are some other mods out there for the 18650 battery? Requirements are: Side button (no roughstacks) so I can use a tank easily and less than $80, other than that I'm pretty...

    Is there a way to tell if my tank is working?

    I got one of madvape's tanks the other day, but I'm not sure if it's working or not. It's not leaking out, but my carto seems to be getting dry, and I can't tell if the carto is drawing in any liquid or not. I've already punched another hole beside the one that's there, but I still can't tell...

    So excited, just ordered my SD Keychain mod!

    Saw this a few days ago, and of course they were out of stock. I've been stalking the forum ever since, and just saw that they were in stock again! Not exactly sure how much I'll use it, but I'm sure I'll get my money's worth for it only being $20.

    Finally making an upgrade

    So I've been vaping for around 2 years now off and on. I've had the same eGo battery since the beginning and it's still going strong. I've mostly made my own box mods including the evercool mod that is still being talked about in the modders forum. All of my box mods have failed in one way or...

    Disappointment with the EverCool!

    Well, it was bound to happen eventually. I was working hard all night last night on making another evercool variable. Finally got the last solder done at 10 PM. I pop in two batteries, flip the switch to on, get one LED, but when I hit the button, I get nothing, no LED, no vapor, just...

    Where can I sell my extra mods?

    So, I've created a nice collection of 3.7v mods over the last few weeks, mainly for practicing soldering for variable voltage mods. Now I have like 5 or 6 3.7v boxes laying around that I would like to get rid of. I'm not looking to make a profit, just sell them at cost, plus $1 or so for...

    My very own EverCool Variable!

    I can't thank BigBlue30 enough, and a couple of others on the other evercool thread for the help and answering my questions. Took me all of about 5 hours to get everything together. Soldering the POT upside down was a major PITA, but well worth it to be able to adjust the voltage externally on...

    For ALL US suppliers who use Paypal, please consider this

    Stop using them, why put us and yourselves at risk? There is one major alternative to the evil empire of Paypal, one that actually allows you to send and receive YOUR money however YOU want (as long as it's legal). This wonderful alternative is setup exactly the same as Paypal, heck, their...

    Another plug for GPal, the PayPal alternative

    www.gpal.net I just got through reading Don's (Backwoods Brew Juices) post about folks that keep mentioning e-cig related terms when paying with paypal. People, there is an alternative! I just don't understand why we keep going through this crap with Paypal closing accounts and banning...

    Got my new carrying case today

    Got it from Kyledesigns. I picked the size 11 so that I could use it as a wallet when I'm not carrying ecig stuff. I may end up ordering a size 17 later since it's a little smaller than the 11. Either way, I can fit quite a bit of stuff in here. Right now I've got one spare 14500 battery...

    Anyone try one of these cases?

    Credit Card Wallet - Cigarette Case Sizes, Photos and FAQs They look very nice, just wondering if anyone here has ever bought one. I'm leaning toward the #11 or #17 to carry my cartos and extra 14500 batteries. Also, if I ever stop vaping I can use it as a wallet.

    Looking for a carto case

    I'd like to find a small metal case, kind of like a cigarette case, that would fit about 4 cartos and maybe a spare 14500 sized battery. Right now I'm using the little bag that came with me eGo, but it's a pain to get stuff in and out of it. I really like the cigarette style carrying cases...
