Lol thanks Katya, another chocolate lab owner! Her name was Maggie May, field lab she weighed 85 lbs. Extra hard I have an 8 year old son who loved her to death and has known her all his life. But, she was old and that's how it goes. My ma was super upset, I found a bunch of cute ... pics and printed them at wally mart, bought some frames and took them over there for her today. Since you are a owner, I'll pm my fb to you I put up those pics and you will love them! Celebrate her life, try not to mourn it.....

Not much of a impulse buyer, plus unfortunately my parents dog (family dog!) passed away last night, most beautiful chocolate lab you've ever seen. We have had the gift of sharing her life to a ripe 11 years old know it's off topic but I am hurting, she was family!
I'm so very, very sorry to hear about your Lab. Wife and I are also Dog people and they are like family. We've never been without one and although they give us so very much pleasure it's really very tough when they pass on...ALL dogs go to heaven.
Again my sincere condolences.

I think that starting with the volt will be better than blu for battery if nothing else. I emailed smokelessimage just to see if they ship with discreet packaging, or at very least will ship with blank cartos so canuck custom can't really seize for hardware alone
Not paranoid at all and it sounds like you're looking at this very carefully. You shouldn't have any problem with the Customs. One thing that's very important us to have backups regarding your PV. The Volts are great and if you choose to upgrade they can become your backup. I know of a convert and 7 friends that use the Volt on a daily basis and are very happy.
Have either of you two heard or played with Redds? They are on Happy Vaper
Yes Jack/ HV is located in Toronto and VERY expensive. I was helping a convert here 2? months ago and I warned him about the Redds. He bought them and 1 week later realized his mistake and bought another kit.
Redds batteries are 150 mah and although Jack at HV won't reveal how many mah the PCC is it's believed to be approx 800 mah. IMHO it's a good kit but far too expensive.

I am, thanks again Vapoor, looks like I will get a volt now no matter what! Like that I can upgrade to variable volt bat as well, 808 be damned this will be my first! Oh and big thanks to Katya too, pretty sure she recomended it first but it was sold out at the link she sent and didn't give it enough thought :p

Great. I would email SI or speak to Imagine (company rep) here at ECF on the SI Subforum and ask about a discount code. There is a discount code page at the top but it's not working.

Just for the record, I suggested the Volt because many people here like it a lot. I prefer 510 cartomizers (with a vertical coil); the Volts (and its clones) have a horizontal coil, but it's a personal preference. You can't go wrong with Volt.

Good luck and happy vaping! Keep us posted!

Just saw your picture - what a lovely girl and the photo will be a heartwarming memory for your son. I am sure your mother will really appreciate the photos you brought her.

I am single dad half the time, every other week. Got my boy today at four, he really took it like a champ. Cried on the way home but I told him he has to be strong for my mom (Maggie was her best friend, my dad has to work on the road a lot and she really was her best friend) I had him give my mom the pics and she started to cry instantly (I expected as much), and then gave her a huge hug and told her not to worry, Maggie is still here. I am really tearing up while I write this. I am so proud of my little guy, can't say anything else about it....

Did email them early today, expect a email back tomorrow, you did say they have excellent customer service. and really compared to other starter kits I was considering, not the biggest deal if it does go south!

They're a very large company and don't work weekends. Some of the smaller Mom and Pop shops are open though. Here's highly regarded juice just outside of Calgary. check the Canada Forum for reviews.:
