CHIT CHAT in VOLTVILLE

[rave]

I wish I could say that. Flavor - no problem, but I have been cutting my nic level (15mg now), but the satisfaction is lacking and I am vaping more. First thing in the morning I vape from a new cart (24mg) - maybe 6 puffs to get the nic moving, then I switch to my home made juice of 15mg for the rest of the day and then vape 7.5mg for the last hour of the night... But, I do not want to vape the volume that I am vaping. In the beginning I vaped about 1.5ml - 2ml per day and now it is 4ml - 5ml... I want to stay at the lower volume.

Truth, I am not sure of which is better - higher nic, but lower volume or lower nic and higher volume...

I hear ya. At one point I tried to lower my nic to 6mg, but I ended up vaping constantly to get the nic that I needed. I raise it back up to 18mg - and I still end up using my PV like a pacifier. The fact of the matter is - these things are terribly inefficient nicotine delivery devices. No offense SI - I was referring to PV's in general.

Yea, 15mg as a regular vape and 7.5mg at night just made sense. I start with 60mg juice so cutting in half and then half again and again was easy so it made sense. Gonna have to recalculate and think on this one...

Diets have a tendency to go straight downhill when the younguns in the house make homemade donuts. Just sayin'.

Assuming that you're winding up with the same amount of nic, the comparative health impact should be a wash. So the issue becomes what you prefer, and the cost.

I think for myself, cost be damned and I'm going with lower nic but constant vaping - to keep my idiot hands out of the refrigerator!!

I started on 6mg and now I look for 12mg when buying. I think if I found a juice I liked with a good throat hit on 6mg I would be happy. I think it's the throat hit that has the satisfaction factor for me.

It's funny - I've been vaping for so many years that throat hit or the lack of it makes no difference to me any more. It's the hand to mouth motion and flavor that appeal to me. Even more important is simplicity of use. I want very little fiddle factor. I'm holding steady with a mix of some 6mg flavors and some 18mg. Then I have one which is 36mg for when I need a kick start. I have ten loaded for bear with ten different flavors at my desk at all times.

Only Ten. I thought you had ten at the desk, and then ten more by the recliner, bedroom, patio, kitchen, den, etc... (LOL)...

Mornin Semi.
I'm trying to remove my skin, maybe it will be cooler without it.

I feel for you, Konstantine. I don't handle hot weather very well. Hope your weather gets cooler soon.

Shhh!! Yeah - okay - but I live at my desk. There are ten more in the living room. All of my other rooms have their own residents, but not so many - and not all are Volts.

Donuts...oh dear. Another weakness of mine...along with cheesecake and Moose Tracks ice cream and Reese's PB Cups.

Dunkin Donuts creme filled.

The same for me, Rave. I bought a KGO kit and the Resurrector cartos before I found SI and the TH was just too much. I gave them away. The nic level doesn't much matter, either, as long as it is not too high.

Is that Bavarian, Chocolate, Lemon, Raspberry, or what for the filling? Had one this afternoon (Lemon)...

You have only yourself to blame, for teaching them how to do that!
And us!

OMG, the ones with the chocolate glaze? I used to make late night runs to the 24-hour Rolling Pin place for those.

Very true about the hand to mouth motion. When I smoked analogs I used to smoke around 3 every two hours and go outside to smoke them. The other 110 mins I had a pen in my mouth! Now I get the best of both worlds and it tastes better.

Chocolate glaze is good.

Dunkin Donuts. *sigh* If only the had them on the west coast. In my ill-spent youth, I could down a large box of Munchkins in one sitting.

Couldn't we all, Sherlock? Sorry you don't have a Dunkin near by, but I'm sure there are other decadent goodies to be had in the Northwest.

Weird... I could have sworn there were shops around here, but I checked and sure enough there are none - except for one at Camp Pendleton. Krispy Kreme was all the rage for awhile but they faded out here.
