I am loving it more now that I realize that it fires straight out of sleep mode .. Maybe I shouldn't say its not a Cloupor chip, its reasonable to think that the chip may have been updated since I got my Cloupor dna 30. I will find out for sure from Robbot.

And I believe that FC has ordered it .. After I spoke with Robbot about doing a review for it, I sent the lead to Doris and told her to jump on it. Not sure when they will have it instock, but I assume that it will be soon .. and I think its going to their US warehouse, so that's a bonus :)


You'll give us a heads up right?

Of course I will, so you guys can pounce on it! :laugh: They never order more than 30-50pcs for the US so ... And I do know from Robbot that the production time is quite long, this is not something that they are turning out by the hundreds per day like most other devices. Sylvia told me they only have the ability to produce 100 pcs or less per day. So when this goes into restocking, it will be restocking if you understand what I mean.

Here is a glimpse into a typical early morning conversation with Doris :laugh:

[2:25:06 AM] Doris FocalEcig: sparrow
[2:25:21 AM] Doris FocalEcig: Is there a word "fire-sale" ?
[2:25:48 AM] Nicole Lea: yes fire sale
[2:26:03 AM] Nicole Lea: just a funny way to say extreme clearance sale
[2:26:13 AM] Nicole Lea: super low prices to clear inventory
[2:26:18 AM] Doris FocalEcig: I get it
[2:26:40 AM] Doris FocalEcig: we call it tiao lou jia which direct transalation is " jump from the building price"
[2:26:45 AM] Doris FocalEcig: (rofl)
[2:26:52 AM] Nicole Lea: (rofl)
[2:27:03 AM] Nicole Lea: chinese people are so corny :D
[2:27:12 AM] Doris FocalEcig: (rofl)

Damn .. then I must be some kind of strong then, I lung hit everything and I don't vape less than 12mg even on rda's .. I feel so powerful :banana:

You go girl! I vape at about .5 and anything over 6mg is too much. I get a nic high pretty quickly. I mostly stay around 3mg. Of course I had worked my way down to 6mg overall anyway.

Good morning everyone! :) Just curious. Recently I went to my doctor for a physical and she said that she wishes that I would tone down or quit, on the nicotine. What actually happens if you do Zero nicotine? :confused: I usually do 18mg... This never crossed my mind before, but I would like to know what vaping would be like without nicotine :blink:

I wonder WHY she would say that? Did she give a reason? From what I read nic is not bad for you, and helps brain function in some studies. It is naturally in stuff we eat. IF there is some reason then I would do zero nic, but there are doctors that support vaping, then there are the ones that think it is still as bad as smoking. I have vaped zero unflavored, and I think in a pinch I could get used to it, but until then I will stick with my 18mg/ml.

Not sure Burnie :confused: At the time, I didn't question it, but I did mention to her that there is a way to either cut down or cut out the nicotine. I guess I should've asked her why. :oops:
You're right, my other Doctors don't even question it. They more or less condone it!

I believe it may have been an ingrained instruction from the doctor. I can't fathom a reason to have to cut it out since it is a natural ingredient found in many foods. Everything in moderation right?

I agree Tami. I actually read that it was no worse than caffeine. I should have asked her how many cups of coffee she drank that morning. :blink:

If you're borderline for anything heartbeat-related (a-fib, arrhythmia, etc.), diabetes or thyroid problems (there might be more, those are the ones I know of), then nic probably isn't a good idea. Caffeine isn't either, but nic hits those areas a little harder and more directly than caffeine, so they tell you to cut that out first.

Nic to me is like salt on food - adds a little sumpin-sumpin to the flavor. Zero nic to me is like drinking flat soda. Just like with salt, it's really easy to cut down, and you get used to the cut pretty quickly. If you do it gradually (like <3mg every month), you won't even miss it. Certain wicks and atties will make you WANT to cut down too. But I can't imagine going cold turkey. That would be hard.

Thanks very much cindy! That makes sense to me now because I did mention to her that I may have (what I think is) small palpitations going on every once in a while, but she asked if it happened after a night of drinking. Answer to that was yes, although I only drink once a week, if that. Fortunately I don't do coffee, so that eliminates that as the culprit. I'll be going this week for all of the tests that she prescribed.
Oh, and thanks for the info on lowering the nic in the juice!

I think it's the difference in how it's ingested. Caffeine you drink, so it gets burned up in your stomach before it can do any real damage. Nic you inhale, so it goes straight into the alveoli (sacs) in your lungs, and jumps into your bloodstream as it gets oxygenated in your lungs. The nic in food goes down the other tube with caffeine, so no biggie.

Now that sounds like a science project. :D
Just kidding. That's pretty interesting.

Nikki, Doris emailed me and is sending a new one out. :banana:

Unless, like me, you put some in your coffee juices. :oops:
