You are so right my friend, I have always an Autosol in my desk and I suggested it as a cleaner for the LUX:

On another note, here is the FDA blueprint proposal on e-cigarettes characterising them as tobacco products (ok, potatoes have nicotine too) and proposing the premium brands of cigars to be excluded from the tobacco regulations! It is obvious from that sneaky approach, that when they gain ground with the first proposal, they will use it for even more strict regulations. Their next step will be to prohibit flavoured liquids pretending that this is for the safety of children. And all trade secrets have to be given to FDA ... The same happens with the EU regulation ...

There is a petition going on as well:

GrimmGreen's view:

Again, It feels strange continuing on "business as usual" when these incredibly serious regulations are dropping from the FDA. Which is why i felt compelled to say something.

This is a serious serious thing. It's worse for all of us than I think most people realize. I'm not trying to create a panic, or a frenzy. I'm trying to create awareness as to how damaging this will be for vaping. The FDA really really want's us to smoke cigarettes, and really really wants vaping to be run by big tobacco. I for one, won't stand for it.

Here is the link to the NBCNews.com article:

First E-Cigarette Rules Proposed by FDA - NBC News

Here is a link to what Mr Conely said regarding the news (down at the bottom) :

FDA Proposes First E-Cigarette Rules - NBC News | GrimmGreen.com

CASAA: FDA releases e-cigarette rules

This is going to change vaping as we know it. We need to stick together, we need to formulate a plan of attack. We need to protect vaping, with truth, with science and with passion.

thank you so much for watching everyone. Vape well, and vape often
-Grimm



Thank you for the great information. It is imperative that we keep posting articles and information regarding the vaping industry. The plight in EU and N America seem to be running a parallel fight. I am impressed the number of vaping supporters and vapers that have crossed the international lines to join each other in the fight. It is most refreshing and together we can bring the man down.
Love you Bro.

Brother B , this guy is out of his mind. A dent, needs a new bell, scratched and 358.00 USD for the pair?
This is a fantastic example of why members are so tired of the classifieds here and on CVapes.
One of the reasons I posted it was to illustrate the extreme difference in asking price of like items.


Yeah but he didn't get it cheap and never used it!
I suppose he may find someone that thinks the same way and not know it may be less expensive to wait for VAPOURDAY.

Idaho, I wish we could get more members involved with our CASAA efforts. IMHO we do have to take on a sense of urgency. This is not going away by itself. There is too much money to be made from our vaping industry.
Something very wicked this way comes.

LOL. I suppose he may find someone that thinks the same way and not know it will be far less expensive to wait for VAPOURDAY.

I get your comparisons. I had to ask him on the thread if the info is correct hoping to send a message to him, and hoping not to get a (-) mod message but, as I have reported FS posts for the over 20% rule, little to nothing seems to be done about it on ECF. (I suspect I just blew my cover :))
It was refreshing on a newer forum to see our GP fam member Doublek79 comment on a $650 Swan and the ad was deleted by admin.

Funny you mention CSAA, as I was going to ask at the end of my post for the members to at least join but, thought it might be a a bit to leading to ask.

Question: Would any of you get a Paps X plated with black rhodium? I'm tempted to do it, but it's so excellent the way it is....

Thats what I was planning to do with my PAPs X when I get it. I love black, really tempted to "Paint it Black" with one of my ELAs. There is a guy on FB that does anodizing really , really nice...

RayRay!
Hmmm. A traditionalist with liberal mindset with a freedom of thought mind frame....I still would have to say that I could not do it. I am attached to my GP collection through touch, feel and and the love/relationship knowing the GP Team and work/time involved.
I am not sure what it is but, only can explain it as a connection for us. I could easily consider a different finish or a custom permanent change on another builders tube. Issue is I sold all mine :laugh:. D has her Caravela and we are thinking of an ammonia process finish but, neither of us can do it to our GP.
The idea has been sprung by the guys at Atmom with their 632 finishes of the Nemesis. Talk about dragging a mod out to the bitter thread of it's end life.....
The metal feel and and polish is amazing. One of a kind. My X's have 2 different feels and I want them to last forever.
On the other hand, Your X, your call. You are a very creative guy and I am sure it will look great!

Black is my favorite color. Almost everything I own is black. But, I also have a SS fetish. The look and feel of my X, a finely machined piece of SS.......................................... Not my X. :)

This was a response of mine to Mrs Iowa on another thread asking how the KGD is holding up in the Spheroid.
IowaG!
I was going to post an update pic of my Heavy VG GVC KGD wick on the GP thread. It seems to be holding it's own - 4th tank refill. I have to straighten it a bit(very little) to climb the Spheroid walls when refilling because of the cap screwing and unscrewing.
KGD is far superior than silica, cotton balls, ekowool, SnC yarn, hemp, sweat sock from the USMC, an old tie, or shoelaces in the GP Spheroid. Another reason to love the Spheroid.

For those that know GVC is a very sugary and thick juice that caramelizes quickly and will easily clog coils and wick medium.
I am still very very impressed.
