    Vaping end point

    Well, I had almost a liter of 100 mg/ml base left when I quit but I hear you. It went down the drain two weeks after the surgery. I'm still hanging on to six wonderful Samsung 30Q bats that still work fine but I have nothing to use them with. Maybe I'll buy a new flashlight.

    Vaping end point

    Thanks for all the kind words! Some came from friends I had 'way back when I started vaping. I am in excellent health and have been lucky enough to avoid heart and lung issues. Quitting smoking was no doubt a big contribution to that!

    Vaping end point

    Yes, it looks like I did. I didn't know about the USPS ban until I came here this morning.

    Vaping end point

    No more shiny objects of desire for me. Following my doctor's suggestion I stopped nicotine and vaping three weeks before having an operation in August that would leave me with three inches of surgical staples. I healed up quickly and without complications and did not return to vaping or...

    One of the best tanks in the vaping industry -- Innokin Zenith

    Thanks, I appreciate that. I'll PM but I'm pretty sure if it ships to CA then signature will be required. edit: I tried to PM but could not enter your profile to do so.

    One of the best tanks in the vaping industry -- Innokin Zenith

    The California mailing problem is a new legal requirement for signature upon delivery. I ordered five packs of Z Coils from an online vendor here in CA on May 28. I have ordered Z Coils from them several times before and received my shipments via USPS just fine. This time the vendor used a...

    One of the best tanks in the vaping industry -- Innokin Zenith

    I called more than two dozen vape shops in the Sacramento area. None of them sold Innokin products. Finally, I found a shop 35 miles away in another town that had three (that's 3 ****'in 1.6 ohm Z Coils) that they sold to me for $5.00 apiece (sigh).

    One of the best tanks in the vaping industry -- Innokin Zenith

    Does anyone know of a brick & mortar in the Sacramento, California area that sells Innokin products? I can't find a single one. I'm running out of Z Coils and it is virtually impossible to get these shipped to a California address.

    New York to Ban Flavored E-Cigarettes Immediately

    That's a shame but it doesn't have to be the end of the vaping world as we know it. I have been vaping unflavored DIY liquid for the last seven years because that's what I like, not because I had no other choice.

    Innokin Zenith MTL tank--Phil Busardo

    Look, the Sigelei Zmax Telescopic V5 is a dud as sold in original condition. So was the Provari. This rig had the very finest electronics available at the time from Yihi. The Sigelei brushed stainless steel telescopic tube body was the best ever made. None of these parts have failed me during...

    Innokin Zenith MTL tank--Phil Busardo

    That is amazing! I can't believe someone is still selling NOS V5s. I have four spares in storage. My V5 has the rare smooth steel button. The only reason that my V5 has survived in use every day for over five years is because I replaced the original momentary switch by soldering a new top...

    Innokin Zenith MTL tank--Phil Busardo

    I just replaced a 1.6 on Friday evening. I vaped it exclusively for 4 weeks and 6 days. I had hoped to reach 5 weeks but no cigar. Began to taste a little burnt although I never ran the Zlide with the four wicking holes exposed. Very impressed by this coil. I vape 10-11 watts. Using unflavored...

    My post regarded the Zlide, which is Zenith variant. The two are similar but different atomizers made by Innokin.

    Innokin Zenith MTL tank--Phil Busardo

    Well, I won't go that far. I quit cigs a long time ago. Carto tanks were the least fussy atomizer I have ever used. Loved them. I punched my own cartos. But, good quality cartomizers are no longer available. Besides, the Zenith coils contribute less off-flavors than the old cartos and they...

    Innokin Zenith MTL tank--Phil Busardo

    I endured a lot of flooding with the Innokin Zenith Zlide and the 1.6 coil. Yep, I've tasted the juice. A lot. But I think that I have a handle on it now. I'm using a high percentage VG juice. 95% VG, 5% water. Unflavored. When reading about my issues and fixes keep this in mind. My high...

    Flooding again with gurgling and spitting. Maybe four weeks is about max for the 1.6 ohm. I'm changing it out after dinner settles.

    Innokin Zenith MTL tank--Phil Busardo

    I'm onto the fourth week of using this 1.6 ohm coil on the Zlide. The juice is clear unflavored VG, H2O and nic. So far the coils needed replacement after I burned the wick. This always turns the juice in the tank yellow. So far, I haven't burned this coil and the juice remains still clear. But...

    Innokin Zenith MTL tank--Phil Busardo

    That's fine. I just don't like that look. When I was using glass carto tanks I didn't want the glass wider than the tube mod for a practical reason. If you knock the mod over on a hard surface the glass would hit first and break.

    The Zlide is the same width as my V5. The Zenith is over 2mm wider.

    Glad to see you are still here! Naw, I'm still using the same stainless steel Sigelei Zmax V5 I've been using every day since 2014. I modified the V5 by soldering in a much-improved Omron switch a few months after buying it. The V5 just won't quit and I've been very happy with it.
