Well, I jinxed myself when I wrote that this morning.

I have a trip to Europe coming up where I'll be stuck in a trade show booth for eight hours a day, five days in a row, and won't be able to vape much. So I was thinking I should get some "stealth device" and run nic salts in it, 'cause I know from experience with a Juul (which I PIF'd a while back) that such a setup can keep the cravings away with much less frequent use than my regular devices. I was contemplating just buying a couple of Juul devices and an appropriate number of pods, but they're not very cost-effective, and I hate the idea of spending $4.00 for pods that contain 0.7 ml of liquid.

So I stopped into the local shop I used to frequent (haven't been in there in ~2 years) to check out their line of nic salt liquids. I ended up leaving an hour later with four 30ml bottles of salt liquid and two Aspire Breeze "mods".

"Don't touch my vapes if you please, Mr. Customs man"

But if you do, well, no big loss. :D

if your trip includes layovers,, consider getting a hard case for eyeglasses,, my vape fit into it perfectly,, then i could go outside and vape,, then tuck the eyeglass case into my water bottle pocket for the security screenings w/o worry of damage (vape/dump the juice out of the tank)

Just take some Snus with you. No sneaking around. No going outside to vape. Nic anytime. etc......

.......easy to transport. Do in the taxi. On the plane. While you're working. No smell. No worries about leaking in your suitcase. No worries with coils/wicks/juice/batteries.

Considerably less hassle. :)

Pod mods work great for travel. I just did a week away with a pair of Justfog Minifits. My first pod purchases.

Loaded them up with 30mg nic salts, and as you mention, stealth vape, no gear to carry, and a small bottle of nic salts lasted me all week. Also, a few puffs keeps the cravings away for hours. Once I got my morning 'nic load' more than 3 puffs of 30mg juice was too much for me. So I vaped them all week, didn't need to take but two puffs every few hours. Carried a backup minifit but didn't need it. The pod included with the kit lasted all week and it still going strong.

I will be carrying one out of the house instead of a full sized backup device now, and future travel will be with a pod device as well. These little pod systems more than suffice for daily use if you like MTL, great for travel and backup use in my opinion.

Enjoy the trip

Nope, no layovers, just a single 8-9 hour non-stop flight. Nicotine gum will be consumed during the flights...

I've done this twice since I started vaping and a bunch of times before that when I was still smoking. It will be fine. As for snus, I've never tried them, and I'm not sure I really want to either. I'm comfortable enough with the nic gum 'cause I used it on planes even before I started vaping. I can't say I really like the stuff, but it does suppress the urge to open the emergency exit and climb out onto the wing for a vape at 35,000 ft.

Yeah, that's the idea. I charged an loaded up both Breezes last night with 36mg salts; let them soak for 15 minutes or so, and tested them. It's powerful stuff, even from dainty little puffs...

Yeah, I'm strictly MTL all the time. I normally run mech squonkers with small RDAs and 13 mg DIY juice, and go through 5-6ml of juice a day...

ps,, you can use a think ribbon of your ejuice like a hand lotion on the thin skin of your inner wrist to 'consume' the nic,, takes a little longer,, but really no dif than a patch

enjoy your trip! :)

If you grab the Limitless Pulse System and hold the vapor for 10 seconds everyone aboard the plane will assume you're just chewing on your oversized USB flash drive because that's how it looks. It's not too terribly expensive, and it uses small 1ml refillable pods with silica wicking.

EDIT: And besides, everyone in Europe knows Americans are crazy so the people here will just leave you alone vaping because they'll all be too afraid of what you might do. :p

Wow! When I was hospitalized for 9 days they put a nic patch on the outside of my outer upper arm. I guess that was the wrong spot? Sometimes it stayed for 4 hours or so and sometimes it was stuck for over two days. I guess it wasn't on their checklist or something, as I had to ask them to replace it after a couple of days. :(

Thanks. I tried patches way back when they were relatively new and you had to get a 'script for them. I didn't care for them much because you can't titrate the dosage. Gum preferable to me because I can easily control the dosage...

Yeah, the shop I was in also had the Boulder Rock. It looks like an over-sized Juul, with pods that are designed to be refillable. But for the same money ($15), I decided the Breeze was a better value and I like the form factor better.

Good! That's how it should be! :w00t:

I have two in rotation, one for work and another for home.
And another six collecting dust

Those are called backups, and are an essential. :)

I'm not a lawyer, but I think they have at least rules about that.
