    Tobacco absolute, which one, and where?

    I feel my tobacco mixes, including NETs, are still lacking something. Maybe it's time to give TA a try. Problem is I'm not sure which TA to buy. ECX has a 100% one that I ordered. But I remember reading some posts recommending the Rustica TA. Only stocked source I could find for a Rustica is ...

    Synthetic Nicotine

    I subscribe to Chemnovatic's newsletter and today I received this email announcing they are offering synthetic nicotine. Interesting development! Link below.

    How to minimize condensation in a RDA?

    Donno if it's only me, but this half cooked juice condensing on top caps then finding its' way back to the wick bothers me. I feel it affects taste and speeds gunk buildup. Any tips to reduce it? Any attys (or atty characteristics to look for) that are less prone to condensation?

    Am I missing something?

    I'm new to TC. Only using it for the last few days on my Hcigar Vt inbox. Using a 0.9ohm SS coil, I'm finding my sweet spot somewhere around 330 F with excellent flavor, vapor and warmth. I'm using the default profiles except that I bumped preheat to 55W. I notice that most are setting temp. to...

    A new PG alternative?

    Was checking out chemnovatic website and noticed they list PDO, a PG alternative. They claim it has better properties; viscosity, taste ...etc. PDO is 1,3 propandiol. PG is 1,2 propanediol. So they are quite related compounds. Didn't find much info online, but it is listed as GRAS. Wondering if...

    Is oxidized nicotine bioactive?

    I have an old stash of eliquid stored in a closet at room temp., 5-7 years that still vape well!! Except for slight darkening (marked in high vg ones) and slightly more harshness I really didn't notice any change. I even don't notice any major change in nicotine hit. Do we know what percentage...

    Mixing with saltnic. Is that even possible?

    Hi all, A veteran here who fell off the wagon 3 or 4 years ago and trying to hop back and kick the stinky habit for good. Back then anything higher than 3 mg would make me cough nonstop while anything less than 18-24 will not stop the cravings. This was probably the reason I went back to...

    Change coil when resistance changes?

    I've been noticing this with my nautilus mini run on istick. I start with a fresh coil head at 1.8. Few days and it is 1.9. One more day and it reads it at 2.0. I then I start noticing a tiny change in taste. Or maybe it's just all in my head. I know this rise in resistance is normal and...

    The trend in PG/VG composition

    I can't help but notice that over the last few years there has been a shift toward higher percentage of VG in e-juice. The "standard" 70/30 is not as prevalent as it once was. This trend is especially pronounced in premium & gourmet liquid. What do you think the reason is?

    A reborn vaper looking for advice.

    Hi forum, I've been a smoker for 25 yrs. 2-3 PPD of lights. 7 yrs ago I started to vape and was able to cut back to 10 analogs a day. I used KR808 with cartos and then upgraded to Ego's with cartos and later tank atomizers. Dripping was never my game. A year and a half later, I stopped vaping...

    510 LR cartomizers

    Hey Bruce, are the 510 LRs you have now different than the ones you had previously (one month ago)? these are qouted to have 2.0 ohms resistance. the old ones were 1.7. BTW, COV has the best variety of cartos among all suppliers. the 306s are fantastic.

    Defining PG/VG ratio

    Hi all, Confused by this. when they say 50/50 for ex., do they mean 50/50 in the final mix or is it 50/50 unflavored base to which flavor conc. is added? (so it ends up with higher PG since flavorings are usually PG based) I know one juicer may mean something and another something else. But...
