Yeah I'm not sure either. Even in new forum it says I'm not allowed to post new threads but everything else is good? I thought maybe I did something wrong lol

You have too many posts to be allowed to create threads in the New Members Forum. You should have no problem creating threads in other forums, correct me if I'm wrong.

I believe you're not allowed to post new threads in the New Members forum once you hit a certain threshold. Like 50 posts or something? Once you go over that, they consider you no longer 'new' and expect you to post elsewhere.

Gah, all but 4 post are replies :mad: oh well ill figure this all out haha

I've been reading about tanks leaking. And that scares me, I'm starting to doubt my currant supply I mean I'll only be gone 3 days, but I remember our smoker group and it was HUGE every class let out and it was just a huge cloud. I've been in contact with one of the managers who used the ecig last year but even he bummed a few when his battery died in nervous when I should be haha

Tanks leaking is a minor concern, but easily fixed.

First, take only a tiny amount of liquid in the ecig as you board the plane. Just enough for the time in the airport and the flight. Keep the rest in the sealed bottle it comes in. The more air and less fluid you have in the tank the less likely it is to leak.

Second, as your taking off, give the ecig a small suck every 4-5 minutes until you're at altitude. This will help keep the air pressure in the tank the same as outside. Leaking is caused by the air pressure dropping as you gain altitude which acts like pumping compressed air into the tank. The pressure inside the tank is the same as ground level, but is much lower outside the tank. The air wants to escape and balance the pressure and forces the liquid out along with it. An occasional quick suck (Don't fire the batteries) will equalize the pressure.

And finally, refill the tank after you've landed.


I had a LOT of experience with changing air pressures and tanks while I was in Colorado. I would bounce between 7,000 and nearly 13,000 feet altitude several times a day. It required constant equalizing of the air pressure in the tanks to prevent leaking, but that's all it takes. A quick little suck on the drip tip and it's good until the next 1,000 feet or so of altitude.

I can't think of anything funny at the moment concerning my vaping, but i do get a chuckle about some others moments. I've read a couple stories where someone said they were driving down the road having a vape session and after they took their last vape threw the ecig out the window, one of them had the window up at the time.:D Should'nt have been throwing their butts out the widow in the first place, I guess.

for me it's more on the side of borderline hoarding. I blame what my wife calls the squirrel syndrome, where im just on any website and next thing I know my card is in my hand, and I'm stalking the mail box. why? because it's shiny!

Yep! If hubby had a clue how much I'm actually spending on this stuff, he'd probably tell me go back to smoking analogs as it's cheaper [even at about 8 bucks a pack]. I just can't resist trying [equals buying!] new batteries, tanks etc. And don't even get me started on the juice addiction!! Literally 150+ flavors at my local shop to try , I haven't even attempted to order juice online....God save me and my wallet if I do!
 
Yall know how the E-liquids have warnings to keep out of reach of children and pets? Well , my kids are all grown and not at home so thats not a problem. My Boston Terrier ,however, has a wicked sweet tooth.... and when I vape Ry4..she couldnt care less. When I vape Cyclops' Colossus she gets right in front of my face ang growls, groans, whines and generally begs like a starving street urchin until I blow a cloud in her face. She licks her lips, takes a bite out of the cloud...and if you watch very closely you can see the vapor coming out of her nostrils. Cyclops' flavors are the only ones that illicit this behavior.... she has a vape preference! lol... I keep the bottles, tanks , mods all well out of her reach since I think she just might destroy equipment to get to the juice. Slightly risky I guess...but still amusing.
The dog obedience technique of "Clicker training" seems valid though.... when she hears me hit the button on my ITazte vv 3.0 she comes immediately! lol

I finally had my ah ha moment today! I use to smoke on the way to work and then have to chug my energy drink so I'd have a can for my butts, well today I went to put my ecig in the can. Haha I was like ok well I officially have decided I love my ecig. Especially since my car is brand new and actually still has a new car smell :)

I can only use use online as no local vendors custom mix :( let me tell you what I will order juice from my guy then find another flavor order again...it's not the juice prices killing me it's the shipping. Shouldn't there be some sort of frequent shipper guideline out there???? Lol I usually have to order quick but he has 300+ flavors and I can't stop looking

Find a few juices your interested in and order all at once so it all goes into one shipping cost

I need to but I forget what I'm doing a lot and at work is usually when I'm looking so I'll do a quick order. He's awesome though if he sees 3 orders in a day he refunds shipping on two

Here's a funny side effect I've had but forget....anybody have those dreams where the are ...... and you actually are? I've read about them and it freaks me out that I'll do it....but I've noticed if I chain vape I get in a dream like trance and then magically have to pee so I'll have to start grabbing something to make it feel real....even when I'm at work haha

Well it's my primary interest now.. I used to look forward to getting home to play with my dog or talk to my girlfriend.. now they have to wait till I'm done fiddling with my shiny new mech and rda..

Downside; its getting hard to remember to save money
Upside: not only is it a better form of nic intake, its a rather in depth hobby!

I just put on some music and watch the clouds...
