    m40x cartos from smoore

    Well, I ordered a set of pre-filled and empty Smoore M40x cartomizers, a pair of M402 auto batteries and the M402 PCC that holds an assembled cigarette. I figure this might provide as close to a "analog" experience for my wife as possible (after over a year of trying, she still hasn't been able...

    I agree - but they do not have the Smoore cartomizers :(

    Who did you order this from? The only china outlet I have seen the m40x cartomizers at is only e cig...

    m40x cartos from smoore

    During a recent wholesale inquiry, I have got confirmation from AEC that there are indeed genuine Smoore cartozimers (non-ceramic) for the M-series: Do you have a update for the long-term performance of these, neotekz?

    Fda crackdown looms

    If given a choice between PM and RJR, the latter seems a better fit for us. RJR has already been developing & pushing Tobacco Harm Reduction products - Camel SNUS, plus the years of serious research into ultra-low TNSA tobacco products. They appear to be the largest commercial concern at this...

    FDA Sued Over Electronic Cigarette Embargo

    Except for the vast multitude of us who do not have health insurance. Mere possession of a prescription product (which current nicotine inhalers are) without said prescription is a felony. This would be almost the worst outcome for many. Plus all personal 'stockpiles' become a ticket to jail...

    FDA detention without physical examination list

    A update has been made that has nothing to do with e-cgis but is still on-topic. It is referring to another new unapproved drug - Ayurvedic, a/k/a: Pushpapdhanwa. What I find fascinating is this: Mere labeling effects how customs treats a product?!? I thought the FDA officials in their snarky...

    Opinions on vaping safety

    Ditto. I treat my 'PV' exactly as I would a smoldering cigarette in regards to public courtesy/safety and the law. But as for my first-hand exposure, I certainly feel much better after the switch. I can now walk until my feet hurt, instead of stopping short when I get winded. If they aren't...

    Opinions on vaping safety

    I am a wee bit confused. I want to say that vaporizin' is at least 3x ( 300% ) less dangerous. Is '"100% safer" equivalent to "completely safe" - as in 100% safety and 0% harm? Also, the term safer would mean that there is some basic safety involved with smoking...

    SNUS and MAOI

    I will add that my pipe relaxes me in a way that e-cigs can't touch. Plus I keep that calm, even mellow for quite awhile afterwards (1-2 hours). Even with 36mg e-liquid the e-cig effect lasts only about 10-15 minutes. Cigarettes were somewhere inbetween, lasting about a half hour. I have a...

    Old school alternative to cigarettes

    I'm drying out my C&D Snug Harbor a bit due to a smidgin of bite, but love the flavors and yes it is quite strong in the nicotine department. Enough to make we want to just sit there and daydream for about half an hour after finishing one pipe. I use it when I first get home from work and it...

    Old school alternative to cigarettes

    TB can cover this much better then me, but here are my thoughts: 1. Depends on the smoker and the pipe tobac selected. I have some that even when not inhaled will knock you on your but nicotine-wise. But even I still use an e-cig (in the mornings and at lunch). 2. Find a local tobacconist...

    Old school alternative to cigarettes

    I see this as a primary reason that if (or when, depending on your outlook) e-cigs and most forms of smokeless tobacco are effectively "snuffed out", pipes may be a suitable fallback for some of us. But please do not inhale. It is not a question of class, but of health. I wore plaid shirts from...

    Old school alternative to cigarettes

    Sorry, I was merely going off of what the American Association of Public Health Physicians said in their report on the bill: Original text found here: http://www.aaphp.org/special/2009/20090327tobcltr.pdf I do like your interpretation better, Bob ;) And yes, I spend almost as more time...

    Class Action

    Not trying to be a PITA, but Meerschaum and Coral are used to make tobacco pipes as well. Have been for a very long time.

    Old school alternative to cigarettes

    So, is pipe smoking considered "smoking" in regards to this forum? I ask, because with the FDA FUD hovering over e-cigs and most forms of alternative tobacco (they already said they will pull snus and ariva once the new bill passes), I have gone back to the old briar after 20 years. Why? well...

    do people even notice when you vape?

    Most people seem to ignore me. Only smokers seem to notice the difference and ask what it is. Remember the teen pacifier fad that occurred a couple years ago? I think people are just desensitized to other people's public actions, especially when it comes to sticking things in your mouth. Maybe...

    Calling all USA college students and bar hoppers!

    I believe they simply do not want people getting used to the act of 'smoking'. The fact that they look and work just like cigarettes is going to completely block any legitimate medical uses of our PVs. Maybe the pipe/cigar ones and maybe something like the SD might have a tiny, slim chance - and...

    FDA Spokesperson Rita Chappelle Shoots Down Both the Device and The Nicotine For a Ban

    Because getting them banned in HK is a quick and easy way to hamper much of the international distribution of the product? Just a wild guess though.
