I have to say that I have been to a few of the B & M's here and they are alright as far as knowing & servicing the "new customers"....they can only teach you so much at first or you may become overwhelmed and give up too fast...as I am sure happens often..... when I first started is was easier for me as I smoked a pipe anyway....so it wasn't just opening up a pack of cigs and lighting it......I had to clean my pipes and fill it constantly...so for me to switch it was pretty easy.....
There is a new shop(last year) that will teach you how to build coils and all that around here....while I was there someone came in who was having troubles with his mod that he just purchased the day before....and they were still helping him when I left.... so they were pretty good with service around here....

Long story made short(skip if you have heard this before)....... about my first visit to a local B & M..but the security guard was vaping when I walked into the "mall" and when I asked him where the shop was he talked about his set up all the way there.....he was so excited about it....and then when I got my first eGo with a tank I was thrilled as it was so similar to smoking my pipe...

Thanx for the input blue...I really need to get out more ...this last trip to Indy was my first since I started vaping...A local shop there caught my eye...but short on time...still lookin forward to my first vaping bar ...hope there's no "rite of passage " involved for noobs (reference to all you navy guys and gals out there!) I'm 3 hours from Reno...that's pretty cosmopolitan for Nevada,no?!

I guess I am kinda lucky because it seems that B & M's were popping everywhere for a year or 2.....although some are gone already because of the fighting over taxes & laws...but there are a couple I could go to if I needed to(but pretty much their juices suck)....I much prefer to order online since I began....the second store I ever went to told me that they vendor they got their juices from will ship personal orders before companies, so they were sold out of the nic level I needed when I went back the next week...She told me to order right from them....so since that time I have been doing that...GMO is my favorite.....I really only order from a couple of companies anyway.when I find something that works I like to stick with it...as I have found that I do best with just those and not changing up weekly....

Since it's northern NV, Reno temps are milder than LV. Still we get 120* here in the High Desert ...yes...and minus 20 sometimes in the Winter...

I don't know, but there are tons of juice/gear giveaways and vape swag! You get to meet awesome vendors, vape celebs and other super cool vapers. They host cloud contests, vape tricks, and a costume contest! There’s also a HOSTed bar one evening.

WE could meet!

Good morning Treefam....I am up and need coffee....
safe travels @Uncle ..
@tiggerrts I am so sorry that you have to put up with that...
I have to read up still.....before I say anymore...

6/24 - 3: The multi quote did not work, yes infuriating and not too long RR, maybe a few months. It is bad, but not the highest priority at the moment under the circumstances. Thanks BLue. He came up to me today "Hey T, how are you this morning?" "Okay I guess, except for the second time this week I got up at 5:30 for no reason." and walked away.

...niiiice!...how far is it to Reno for you? The only bummer is the distance......(oh yeah...and my miniscule disposable cash budget ...I think this years vaca for me was the Indy business trip ...but bright spot! ...sounds like they do this vapercon every year!!

...I would think there'd be alot of them in Vegas ...??...
We've got alot of knowledgeable and experience here! Did you catch Shawn's post about the Sqounk? ...$30 !
reposting part on the convers in case you missed it...

RDA suggestions. Let me hear them. I'm looking for something that doesn't leak, easy to fill, good flavor and not too expensive while being easy to build on. I'd like to hear what you all think, I may be addicted to dripping after experiencing it this week.

.
Skip the drip and go to squonk. Look up the Terminator Mod with the Smokeless Owl atomizer. It's a squonker that retails for less than $30 shipped.
Meanwhile, I just tried the nail method to wrap and wick a 30 ga ni200 build for my DNA40, and it worked flawlessly. .19 ohms in my Kanger Mini. Rockin' at 450 degrees and 40 watts!

..man ...just realized the immortality of our words! ...for better or worse

...oh well..here's a tree

I'm still trying to find my next device, I'd really like another dripper to accompany my freakshow mini, but I think a decent RTA makes the most sense based on what I have right now. There's just too many options and too many things coming out. I really like the look of the goblin mini coming out by UD, especially the green replaceable tank, I'm pretty sure it's plastic though. I've never seen colored glass on a tank. Ah well, my search continues.

@KatzWh1skers

I haven't been able to find anything (Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place) The only thing I found is a 2 year anniversary party for one of the vape lounges.

And is this what is being talked about ? Here @Shawn Hoefer

Could someone tell me how to tag people in posts? I've been here long enough to where I should know, but at this point I was too afraid to ask, hahahaha.....

Oh, and does a giant snake wrapped around a tree stump count?
