Predator, priv, Avenger and Baby Beast light up tank....all from companies that seem to be hated lol. I like pretty led lights, what can I say.
I don't know, I sometimes think our best weapon may be actual.... weapons. Nothing wrong with other things as an add on: education, stocking up, fighting the good fight. They're all useful, but IDK how far its gonna take us.
I agree with all the frustration though. I'm stocked up, but I also don't feel all thrilled about the situation, etc.

Sorry, I was just continuing my thoughts, not arguing with you or what you said. I agree with it all, but my point is, at least in this news cycle against vaping, we can have all the knowledge in the world about the benefits of vaping, but we're going to lose this and get vaping banned if we can't truthfully argue that nicotine should not be sold to teenagers. The news these past few weeks has been about Juuls being marketed to kids, so I'm arguing with vendors that actually do market to kids. It wasn't a response to you. I should have been more clear. I'm nice, I don't want to argue or offend people, I just like to call a spade a spade (you are not the spade, I mean just the issue of marketing to teenagers). And I'm no troll, just a person who vapes and doesn't want his vape banned just so a few vape vendors can put colorful bottles on the market for teens and run off with the money while I'm trying to quit smoking. Again, sorry. Sometimes our intentions and tones don't come through in text, and mine obviously didn't. I am spirited about this, but about the issue, not what you said. Cheers.
Just took a look at Eciggity. Reminds me of my old Sigelei Telescope mod. I haven't thought about that one in years. I bought that one, then sprung for a Provari V2.
Getting back to stocking up, I've found the Iclear 10's I picked up from Heavens Gifts, combined with Kanger Esmart batteries, makes a handy stealthy vape. It's lasting all day for my wife at work. I even threw one on an old Roughstack from years ago and it vapes better than any carto did back in the day!
I bought a liter of 100mg nic from EcigExpress a while back. It was water clear, but had a mild TH and a slight peppery taste. My first two liters were from MFS and were fine. I just received a liter from MFS and broke it down into 250ml glass Boston Rounds. It's in the freezer with the rest of my nic. I kept out a 250ml bottle for DIY.
The MFS nic had a really faint yellow tint looking down into the shipped bottle, but was water clear in the glass bottles. I actually liked my previous MFS nic better than the EcigExpress nic for TH. I think it was milder than the EicgExpress nic, but both blended well into my tobacco recipes.

You know, of course, that you can use any topper on these mods, even at low watts, you will just get more battery time. And sometimes that is useful. Can't argue with a provari tho. I still have a few stashed away in my 'just in case' closet. LOL
FWIW: The latest July 20, 2018 FDA position on e-cigarettes and related products.

I got an email saying that now FDA is coming out with 4 different news letters. I think it was 1 for each stage of applications, and the others can't think of off the top of my head. Did not sound like something I wanted in my face all the time..... so I trashed the email.....can find info again if anyone wants it.

Right now it seems that they are concentrating their efforts on preventing children from obtaining vape products. I support preventing kids under 18 from being able to buy vape products. School kids vaping has been a stain on the vaping industry. It's too easy for smoke and vape haters to point to vaping and say it has to be banned "for the kids".
At least they aren't seizing shipments at the docks like they did in earlier years.
This article talks about how the FDA and current administration are handling the ecig issue. I'm thinking that I'll vote for Trump again if he runs! The article is from May 2017. Old news, but good news.

One more article and I'll stop, but this one from July 2018 starts at the beginning and chronicles the fight between Vaping and the FDA better than I've seen. It fills in the cracks and explains how and why the FDA stepped into the fight against Vaping. It's a must read.

the FDA would be better off focusing on all the sugar and drugs pumped into children. Our kids are fat, learning issues and definitely a violence problem,, 'here have some gluten packed sugar enhanced well fertilized cereal for breakfast and again at dinner'........dont worry,, its 'good for you'
base line standard in simple math.
avg for drug
drug only needs to help 1 person but can harm 15 ,,, so you have a 1% chance of help and a 15% chance of harm and that is good odds from the FDA

So where are all these haters when kids get their hands on cigarettes? Don't see that in the news. Don't see threats of banning and haters all up in your face either......Makes no sense to accept the known killer--cigarettes---- when an a less harmful alternative presents itself........its no wonder the government thinks the public is too stupid to govern themselves...Can't fix stupid.
The paradox is that Juul is the most popular with kids.
It's also the most adult oriented marketing. Plain & boring.
For the longest time it was only available in 50mg/ml strength.
Kids like them for stealth and the buzz.
Kids used to like blowing clouds and surveys said most used 0mg.
Now they're getting addicted to nic salts so they can stealth vape.
Childish labeling is what ANTZ present to legislators and everyone is shocked at the industry's immaturity while Juul banks billions with adult labeling.
