ABSOLUTELY.

I haven't gotten a buzz off an analog in over 20 years. I get buzzed on my PV at least twice a week. I owe that to 36mg liquid and a manual switch. I love my NicoYetiStick and the really good suppliers around this forum:wub:.

The buzz is actually much preferable to the NicOD from analogs. I rarely feel the NicOD feeling with the PV, just a slightly elevated mood and energy level - and an occasional lightheaded feeling if I go too far.

nicowolf,

I'm curious about your name.. I have a wolf dog (50/50 wolf/malamute). His name is Niko...

more on topic. I actually got a wicked buzz from my NPRO last night. Got carried away with the chocolate juice, got that dizzy, nauseated, i smoked an analog too fast feeling.

had to go right to bed afterwards... i was already in bed (love that about the e-cig), but, that was the end of my night...

I remember the first few days of e-smoking. I was out on a sunday, vaping away, and then the battery died. About an hour later I took just 1 drag off of a friend's cigarette (she was smoking parliament lights). I got buzzed just off of that one pull and mind you I use 18mg liquid. I definitely think it is the other chemicals in the cigarette.

What state do you live in? I was under the impression that wolf-dogs were illegal in most states. If you ever breed him, I'll happily take one of the pups :) . How do you find his intelligence compares to regular malamutes? Behavior? Aggressiveness? Loyalty?


And yes, it has already been established that there are other chemicals in cigarettes which contribute to the "buzz" and especially the addicition. Researchers have found that nicotine on it's own shouldn't be very addictive at all, so they're looking for possible combination of chemicals with nicotine that could cause an addiction that has been suggested as being more powerful then ....... or ....... And I can attest to the fact cigarettes are harder to kick then the former.

i'm in the mountains of north carolina. I have heard that wolf dogs are illegal too, but.. well. who's to know for sure if he is, right??

Niko's intelligence is scary. He knows all of his toys by name and if he wants to go outside, he rings a bell that i hung on the doorknob. He knows all the key words AND how to spell them. I can't even say "hon, you wanna go for a w" without him expecting a walk. He is intensely watchful and an excellent watchdog. Good with cats and kids.
he is a total gentle giant... Everyone who ever meets him or watches him for us agrees that there is something VERY special about him...

There have been a few moments where a challenge occured (usually when he's doing something i don't want him to do). It was a bit scary, but i always had the feeling it was more for show and that he would never hurt me (still have to wonder though).

He is an incredible dog... Very sensitive (if we're fighting, he will go hide in the bathroom), very sweet (not as sweet as our husky though), EXCELLENT listener... I could go on and on... just an amazing dog.

He's about 90 lb. or so, maybe 100, haven't weighed him lately... Everyone just loves him. He's not ever agressive, but no dog has ever challenged him that i've ever seen. Definite Alpha without having to do a thing.... Most loyal dog i've ever had...

Love him to no end.

Yea, big tobacco adds such yummy things as ammonia and urea to up the pH of their tobacco blends. The higher pH, amongst other tricks, results in a free-base form of nicotine when smoked. There is a lot of info on this out there. Free-base is highly addictive as it's easily absorbed, hits the brain quicker and harder, giving you that kick. Ask a crackhead if he wants some powder...haha

I felt it even when I switched from pre-mades to making my own.

I have never caught a buzz from vaping, maybe a slight tingle now and then, haha

With all extractions, there are naturally occuring alkaloids in tobacco that are left behind in the extraction of nicotine. When you smoke tobacco you are getting the full spectrum of these alkaloids. With vaping it feels like something is missing from the sensation. While I miss some of the snesation, I don't miss the smoke and future cancer.

yeah, i think a lot of this would depend on the juice.

All my flavors are at least 24. I would think 36 would be closest to an analog.
There are definitely other things going on in a cigarette.

I always used to be "stimulated" when i smoked my first ciggie (nicapoo if you know what i mean). I thought e-juice would too, apparently it's not just nicotine that made me run to the bathroom, lol...

there's so much else going on with analogs that it's scary to think about,, i'm just glad i don't smoke them anymore.

I received some of TW's 36mg "tobacco" this morning, I thought just try it for morning.....I've been using JC's 24mg tobacco flavor.
More than a buzzzzzzz, it was almost faint, totally made my stomach wretch. Took about half an hour to feel better, well, now I know better!
24mg keeps my happy. Must say, it tasted wonderful very much like JC's "tobacco" flavor, so will try more from them. Delivered fast as well. But talk about a whollop. Didn't seem like much of a stretch between 24mg to 36mg, but sure educated me.

Sounds like a love, they are very intelligent, also wolf. How old is he..has he been exposed to a she-wolf yet. Please, careful careful.
We have a lovely .... hound, a saddle-back. 125lb. Was fine till he was five, then totally changed his personality, no reason apparent to us. Breeding? I will not even feed him. He knows he has advantage, and I know it too. Something in his eyes went stone cold.
