    Why does it go to 50 watts?

    Thanks. I'm kind of naive about this stuff I guess. I'm disappointed because I think I had at least another week left on that coil.

    Why does it go to 50 watts?

    Somehow, I inadvertently pushed the buttons just wrong today and it went from 7 watts (my usual power setting) to 50 watts (the highest setting). I didn't even mean to push any of those buttons. I experienced instant burnout and a horrible taste in my mouth and the coil was instantly ruined...

    Kanger Protank 2 problem

    The thing is,I liked the protank 2 somuch I bought 6 replacement coils. I don't think that's the problem. There are even youtube videos taking it apart to clean it just like I did but apparently they didn't have the same problem. The thing that is so frustrating to me about vaping is you...

    Kanger Protank 2 problem

    I'm not even talking about the coil head. Sorry I guess I didn't explain it well. I mean the rubber seal that seats the glass part of the tank next to the metal end-cap where the coil goes.

    Kanger Protank 2 problem

    I got this thing and I thought it was great. It's well made, nice glass and metal..It's siolid BUT, when I took it apart and washed it the little rubber grommet would not seat properly as I tightened it. If I tighten it too much it bulges inwards and doesn't create the seal it's supposed to...

    This is why I HATE e-cigs (warning: rant mode enabled)

    Not ignored. In fact, I'll at least look at Provari. I just took a cursory look at a website that sells them. Not cheap and many options is my first impression. And they had something that glows in the dark. I've always loved stuff that glows in the dark. I'll look into them a bit more...

    Well, it says you're in MA, which I assume is Massachusetts which has the 2nd highest state tax on cigs. Second only to NY and 4 of the top 5 highest state taxes on tobacco are in the Northeast. I'm not surprised Hawaii takes the 5th spot. Everything is expensive there because it's an island...

    This is why I HATE e-cigs (warning: rant mode enabled)

    I had a really great post all composed and then my browser ate it. So, I'll try to summarize it. I don't think government accounts for as much as people think. From someone else's post: (E) for each of 2007 and each year thereafter: $.0188482 per unit sold.[29] So, what. Not even 2...

    This is why I HATE e-cigs (warning: rant mode enabled)

    Cigarettes were a little less than $1 a pack when I started smoking. I'm sure people older than me can chime in and say how they were only 25 cents a pack or maybe the retailer even paid you to buy cigarettes, but that's the starting point I'm going to use. Today cigarettes (where I live) are...

    This is why I HATE e-cigs (warning: rant mode enabled)

    Interesting Louis. I was that obsessive smoker who always had a spare pack and usually carried at least 2 lighters. I'd keep one lighter in my coat and another in my pants pocket. I think my record was carrying 5 at one time and that was just from waking up and stuffing a lighter in my coat...

    I've seen that before, but it's still classic. It's like it's almost a parody of itself. I checked with RJR about Revo. Their website said to call them, so I did. It will be test-marketed in Wisconsin starting next February. I asked if it was different from Eclipse and they said it was...

    This is why I HATE e-cigs (warning: rant mode enabled)

    I don't really care what they think, but I sometimes go to a particular store here in Colorado and they have signs up which say "No vaping of anything" When I was there last month I saw a car pulled over with the local cops all in his face. I don't know what he did, if anything, but I won't...

    I'm not sure what WTA or ETA meant, but thanks for the link. I hadn't heard of those. From another article I found about it: "Revo is the same product as Eclipse, now with an updated look, name and marketing plan,"...

    This is why I HATE e-cigs (warning: rant mode enabled)

    First off, I spent a lot of money trying different ones. They all sucked. NONE of them hit like a real cigarette. There is no satisfaction from an e-cig. But I'm sick enough of real cigarettes that I finally settle on a particular brand. Okay, these are alright I thought. I can get by with...

    I am cursed

    Well, I've determined it's not a battery problem. It just seemed liked they all gave out at the same time and the new one isn't fully charged yet. So I'm pretty sure it's not the batteries. I just tried again and got a decent drag off the clearomizer that was new yesterday.It wasn't doing...

    I do have an eGo spinner somewhere, but I have had similar problems with it, Same thing with the Inferno. I'm not familiar with Evod.

    I am cursed

    I've got SIX Volt batteries. One of them is new and still charging, but I've had the others for a while. None of them will give me a hit. I screwed on a new Clearomizer. Okay, the new new battery gave me one hit while it was charging, but everything else just seems useless. And to top that...

    Camel's new ecigarette the Vuse...have you tried it yet?

    I think I can say I'm not a "new vaper" anymore (been vaping for over a year) and I really don't have any desire to try out any of those flavors. Like I said in another post, it can be a very subjective thing, but I feel nauseous just hearing "watermelon bubblegum" and I seriously doubt there...

    Camel's new ecigarette the Vuse...have you tried it yet?

    I just picked up a Vuse since they sent me coupons. I got the Vuse Solo and 2 cartridges for free (minus $1.17 in taxes). It's lightweight and as advertised was charged and ready to go. The taste isn't really to my liking. It's not horrible, but I can't say I care for it much. YMMV. I...

    Have you ever encountered this brand of "anti-smoker"?

    I disagree. If private businesses want to ban vaping, I think that is their right. I am against legislation forcing businesses to ban smoking and I would hold that through to any legislation forcing private businesses to ban vaping but if they want to ban it inside their place of business...
