Hey Oly! I just got an Evod kit for a friend of mine, and my daughter and Mom both love theirs as well. Like ElDee said, "whatever works for you". We are just happy that you're vaping!!! :)

I used my BuzzPros for years with carto tanks, and was perfectly happy. Got my first ProVari last April or so and now I use (and LOVE) them. Picked up an istick 20watt mod just a couple months ago and love that little sucker too now. Whatever works!!!

Well, there you go Oly! All kinds of Evod support. And if Tracy says their good, you can take that to the bank!

(That's about ALL I can take to the bank .... LOL)

Hey sis Tracy, the one mod I've never had ... not ever .... is the ProVari. I don't know why I've never had one, I've sure had everything else. I've read a lot about an awful lot of people who swear by them. What is it about them that people like so much? Or are they like some other vaping items that just work well?

Hugo, man that brings back bad memories. We bought a house in Sumter area (Wedgefield) the week before Hugo decided to go after my family. We had people in Charleston, Sumter (obviously), Columbia, Charlotte and Lynchburg VA and everyone got hit. We found out afterwards that 2 tornadoes touched within 1/2 mile of the house, One neighbor had his shed lifted up whole and dropped on top of another neighbors shed. We had over $5k damage to the house (basically the roof), and car damage when the garage ceiling collapsed on it. We were locked in by trees collapsed in the road to get out that the National guard had to cut a passage through. They literally cut a tunnel up the road through the trees and we could look left and right at times seeing the tree trunk of the same tree on either side. Took a long time recovering and cleaning up from that.

Yep, we spent the night of Hugo at ground zero crouched down in our hallway with our young son and my mom. The hallway and the living room were the only rooms not totally destroyed. I was always thankful that we were not in McLellanville though. Those folks got the storm surge and it was bad. It was a very traumatic experience indeed. One that I hope to never experience again in my lifetime. Disasters like that bring out the humanity in most folks though. Rich or poor were all on exactly the same level. No matter if you had $ or not, it did not help when there were no stores left to buy from. Nobody could buy their way out of it and we all lived for months with just basic needs. Humbling to say the least.

I'm using a few Evod's, kanger pro, aspire tank and a couple Davide Kings (having some problems after tearing these down for cleaning). I have used the evods mostly because they fit in the the pocket without breaking. I've never been interested in rebuilding on my own. I guess an accurate description is i want to vape not a new hobby. That may be sacrilegious here.

Davide King was the one that you got with top fill. I could not recall the name.

Anyone get that restless leg thing? For the past week I've had that issue but not just my legs, my arms too :confused:

I do get it at times but, only when I have een doing alot of physical activity and am fatigued.

I never owned a Provari either, TT. Never thought that they would be worth the $ I suppose that many people like them because they are so durable from what I have seen. Provape really failed to keep up with technology IMO though.

The weather was perfect here today. 78 degrees and sunny. I do hope that everyone else enjoyed their day :)

Tracy, thanks for the recipes. I will take a look at them.

I just love mine TT. Ithey're well made, the machining is like buttah!!! :) just solid quality.
There's my simple two cents! :p
You all remember what I did to my BPs? Wore off most of the anodizing? Doesn't happen with the ProV. They still look like they did on day 1.

I have always heard that they are great quality. I came close a few times to buying one but, there were just so many other options out there. Honestly, I have had great luck with my less expensive mods holding up well. One thing that always turned e off about the PV was the one button operation and menu. I have had several mods like that and don't care for it.

My Provari was a "Happy Divorce" gift, and will always carry the sentimental value of both the occasion and the gifter :wub: Coming up on the 1st anniversary of that divorce next month, and you can bet that I'll be celebrating all by my happy lonesome!! (even tho I ended up with custody of the ex mother in law)

I did Notcigs' tech support and customer service for about 2 years, so my Buzz Pros will always be valued for the friends I've made along that road :)

I was just telling Tracy that I've tried so many fruits, but just haven't found one I can vape. Every one I've tried leaves the inside of my mouth raw. I'd love a nice rich, creamy strawberry shortcake, or a true, juicy watermelon! I have always returned to my favorite creamy, caramel-y, decadent dessert vapes.

If you remember, they discontinued those because there were issues with them. You were lucky to get a few that worked ;) I am glad that you are still liking the Evod though. Like everyone else said, whatever keeps you vaping and off the cigs.

Yeah FEMA and the Red Cross....When they are set up in your neighborhood it's highly likely you've had a bad day...

ProVape has the ProV 3....not sure if it's a low ohm and wattage player though...The price will hurt your feelings...That said all three of mine have been blems..I found no fault with any of them,,,They're a little heavy....stainless steel and I believe 304SS...Most comfortable fire button in the business...Menu is OK after the first couple times learning the ropes...Best quality is the durability...Very pocket friendly as well and I never turn it off....

Tying to clean out my DVR for the switch....watched The Hobbitt's Unexpected Journey tonight....Tomorrow the Desolation of Smaug

Has anyone used a milk frother when mixing juice...I have never even seen one....I was reading some of the recipes the lovely ladies sent and one mixed the juice....hot bath....milk frother...couple three times thru the bath and frother...I stir the sheet outta mine and give it a hot bath...then shake the living daylights outta it when in the bottle...Hoping I'm not cruising the isles I never go on looking for a dang frother next....but if it's better I will....I did purchase some coconut palm sugar earlier for my coffee....Teaspoon has 4 grams of carbs and tastes pretty dang good...i didn't get a frother though

I went back to my roots and ordered some Cherry Vape tips...Ya'll know back when I had to have my Mings...These coming are big hole...I got two long ones and two regular with grooves much like my Rampages...I've come to love the translucent glow from the Rampage tips...One thing I didn't like about the wide bore was they were so short...Dang kissing the top of the tank

I threw down and ordered a hand blown Chillum as well...Gold fumed amethyst...High and stylin both!!!!! Hey it's medicinal.....K ??????????

Only the legs and only when I was pregnant :D

I am not surprised though, Bov, for the amount of hard labor that you are doing--your muscles are overworked, tired, stressed!! Two things to consider off the cuff, how is your iron intake? Deficiency can lead to RLS. And how about your fluid intake? Dehydration is a bear especially coupled with overwork...

Salt/Sodium/Potassium intake is something to consider too...

All that and winning the lottery to hire someone ELSE to do that back-breaking, never-ending work :)

Good Monday morning all!
Gotta run and try to beat the traffic...
