    CDC's Tom Frieden manufactures more hysteria over e-liquid safety to lobby for FDA deeming reg/ban

    I'm not sure if other countries have to deal with this same garbage but this lack of personal responsibility has gone too far. Any time anything bad happens, everyone immediately jumps to find who else to blame. Sometimes .... happens, and you have to just accept that. Sometimes dumbass parents...

    Vaping tournament not cool?

    The cloud chasing thing doesn't really make sense to me either, but if that's what makes you happy then go for it as far as I'm concerned. I just wish people had sense enough to keep it out of the public places, or even plain vaping overtly in places where smoking isn't allowed. {MODERATED}

    Page Keeps Refreshing (Mavericks)

    I've not encountered this one. It may be resolved in the same manner. I don't actually use Safari, or any apple product for that matter. I just work on misc devices all day and pick stuff up as necessary.

    Juice Testing?

    The soapy tasting ones I've gotten usually go away after a week or two, although I still get the occasional soapy taste. Nothing major, just one or two toots on a full tank. I also use the simple 510 atomizers on a regulated mod to do my testing. This way I can check the different voltages and...

    Serious computer ransomware alert - please read

    I recently had an old client call me up after moving to another IT firm whose prices were $50 a month cheaper than mine in order to "cut costs". They hadn't sent out word to their clients warning of this virus, and they had allowed his antivirus subscription to lapse. When he got infected, they...

    Page Keeps Refreshing (Mavericks)

    This is a built in "feature" that is related to page caching and the internal methods used by the browser itself. To remove it, you need to disable browser caching. To do this, enable the developer menu from Safari -> Preferences -> Advanced. Then under the develop menu, turn on "Disable Cache".

    Battery Safe?

    As baditude said, check for any puffing or venting indications. As long as the battery didn't get hot to the touch you should be fine. The batteries are rated at around 140F max temp, but I use the rule of thumb of 100F+ they get tossed. It's not worth testing your luck over a <$10 battery...

    Real kayfun lite plus ??

    Yep, that looks right. I've got a Tobeco, an EHPro, and an original. The original looks the least polished of the three and doesn't function any better. I was disappointed as well.

    How should I support my local shop?

    eGo Twist 650, 1x CE4, 1x USB Charger (no wall charger) and a zipper case = $67 + tax. The exact same same set that runs $11 when bought 10 at a time from china. This is how I wish more stores were. Instead of trying to rape people on the hardware, give it to them for a small markup, and keep...

    How should I support my local shop?

    I'm in the same boat here. I understand that there is overhead associated with a B&M that will force them to have prices higher than their online counterparts, but when an eGo Twist 1100/CE4 kit is $70, and an 18650 is $19.00, I just can't be compelled to buy. It kills me how busy these places...

    How much do you spend per month on juice?

    Between zamplebox, random orders, and all the DIY flavorings (I still have about a gallon of 12mg nic juice), I average about $150 per month. I am a very heavy vaper though. I usually go through 8 to 10 ml a day. The worst part is that I was rolling my own cigarettes before I went to vaping...

    Vaping YouTube Channel.

    I like the Starter kit video. I always hate seeing people buy that garbage when there are so many much better options out there for so much less. Sort of like the B&M in my hometown selling 650mah eGo-T kits with one CE4, a zipper case, and a USB (no wall adapter) charger for $67 plus tax. Snd...

    I in no shape form or fashion wanted to bypass the verification process. I had hoped to simply bypass the post requirement portion. I visit this forum multiple times per week and have done so since I moved full time from analogs to electronics back on April 10th of 2009. I come on forums to...

    Yeah, a lot of people are like that. I'm simply not the social type. I'm working on the 20 now, I just had to ask as I generally only post on a forum if there hasn't been a response already, as there is no need to reiterate an already made point in my mind. Plus I am not a social person, and the...

    So, I've read and reviewed the rules and regulations regarding the classified section on here, and I know that there is supposed to be a 20 post requirement, but I was curious as to whether there was some type of "pass" for being a member for 4+ years? I've only recently started buying things...
