Bleargh! I have been having issues with my passthru the last couple of days.. before I could just unplug it from the port and plug it back in and it would start working but now it's not wanting to work at all. I've cleaned the connection on both the passthru and the cart but not getting anything off of it The 2nd cart I've tried today! Doh Works just fine with a battery though.

ya I know, the volt batt looks to much like the real thing. Guess I nailed it on the analog wrap
I like the slogan idea to. How's "For Vapers by Vapers". Think I've heard Imagine say that

Thanks for the input Keep the ideas coming!

I agree with everyone else that it just looks too much like an analog. The Volt in your signature would look much better and appeal to men as well as women. Also: Not to be picky, but "cigaretts" should be changed to "cigarettes".

MegaBee - Congrats on your certificate! Also, way to go for helping your friend.

He's My Everything - It just warms my heart to hear about Rob's increasing success and your advocacy for the Volt for the others in your life. (((HUGS)))

SandySu - Wishing you good luck on your experiment!! *Fingers crossed*

Now - Back to salivating in anticipation of Volt-mail en route.

another slider PCC question...
i just tried to charge 2 batteries and it did not finish both (1000mah-320mahx2 = should still have lots left ). i charged one last night form dead to full, the PCC was fully charged but there was only 1 bar of life left in the LCD screen. the second one i charged today and it did not finish, the screen was telling me the PCC needed to be charged already. plugged in the PCC and it started charging both. it also ALWAYS shows that i have 2 out of 3 bars AFTER it finishes charging my e-cig, but wont charge anymore.
i contacted CS just waiting on the response now... but how much life is anyone else getting from their PCC?

I just tried Freedom this evening. Just a few puffs, since i'm trying a lot of new flavors now that I have blank cartos. However, expecting the worst, after what some people said, I don't think it's all that bad! I could vape it when I'm in the mood for a tobacco flavor. It's 18 mg instead of the 6 mg I'm used to vaping, but it isn't as hard on my throat as the other higher nic flavors have been. It has a mild flavor, tobacco-like, but then a bit of tang at the end, sort of a spicy/peppery taste that makes it more interesting.

Thank you SandySu your description was pretty spot-on to how I found it...I did like it better then the cowboy joe. I ended up going back to my DKTab with WTA from aromajuice and found I was happy with that.....but that happiness was shortlived because my pcc which is currently my only charger crapped out on me again!! AAAARGGH! So I have been without my Volt and actually missing vaping since last night!! I'm not enjoying cigs as much so I guess thats a good thing.....but stressing a bit on when my ub charger will be here, I ordered on 12th hopefully it will be here today.

When my PCC actually worked this pretty much described what I got as well.....I have never seen 3bars when it is fully charged and it has never worked like manual says it should. I will be sending it back when I get my UB, I am seriously considering getting the MEGA next month when I can afford it!
I kick myself because when I got the PCC with the pro kit I also ordered the car charger and the UB wanting to make sure I always had a charge...but accidentally broke the UB the day after I got the kit
So now no charger at all...I miss my Volt....BOOOOHOOO!
May the SI Mail Gods be smiling on me today

Aw maaan - That's a bummer. Wish I lived closer. I'd hook you up. Hang in there, Kelly.

 

[Kelly A Fox]

So I'm now thinking I added my banner too soon and should wait til I'm at a place that I don't have to keep changing the analog-free date....how do I do that my the way???
Rave I really like your banner....how do I create one that doesn't show quit date? Can someone give me a link?

 

[Kelly A Fox]

Thank you....I'm hangin. I am really surprised at how much I am missing my vape
It's a good thing though

 

[He's My Everything]

Now, see that? Another great argument for Tupperware-like parties!
Wow, Barb - I really gotta hand it to you. You're an amaaaazing advocate for someone who doesn't even use this stuff!
And (I've only awarded this once before) you get the Cool Chick pic!

Now, did everybody notice that she was filling with 20mg (not 18, not 24)? Barb must really like math too!

Wowee!! A Cool Chick Pic!! I feel so SPECIAL!! THANKS!

I totally WAY suck at math (too lazy, to be honest) so my 20mg reference was simply due to the fact that 20mg is all that Vermillion River offers their sample pack juices in (well, that, or zero nic, which deafeats the purpose, at this stage).

Thanks for the nice comments. I love this man beyond, beyond. If this little bit of work/advocacy helps him quit those nasty poison sticks, I can die happy.

 

[He's My Everything]

I really, really hope they help you out with that Barb-and I'll bet they do!
Congrats on the hubby too-mine is in love with cinnamon, and is doing quite well. He says he loves the feel of the Volt in his hands compared to the other e-ciggy we began with. That in itself is a big part of the battle-his comfort zone. I think he's going to stay with this. Also wanted to say what a sweetied you are for doing that for whole family!

Thanks, SmokinGee! We are a very close family and, as I've mentioned before, we've lost three members (my Dad, Mom & Sister) to smoking-related deaths, so it blows my mind that they are still smoking in the first place. If buying starter kits will help even one of them kick the cigs, it's money very well spent.

 

[SandySu]

Yeah she has been very teary at work, and she lives alone (except her dog muffin lol) so I always go and spend almost every friday night with her we biarch about work and have a few drinks she normally chain smokes while drinking like I used to. Now hopefully we can do all of the above still but chain vape together on friday nights instead lol. I do love her and I feel bad for her and I hope I can support her at least with giving up smoking and her family and doctors can do the rest

I will keep my eye for out next sale so I can top up since my spares have been given away LOL!! I still have enough to get by though.

Next visit to her, bring a bunch of flavors she hasn't tried and experiment with ones she likes. I think half the fun of vaping is all the flavors available. You can make it a tasting party. For this, I think the SI sampler cartos are a good idea. I really had fun exploring all the flavors and deciding which I liked better than others. It would have been even more fun if I had been trying them with someone else.

I enjoyed that so much. That composition ranks as a masterpiece! Thank you for sharing.

A weird thing today. i went into town to do a few errands, and while there, I decided to see if I could buy a change purse and also something a bit larger to hold my e-cigs and maybe some cartos. I chose a bag with a pretty tapestry floral pattern that was on sale at the local gift shop for $5. There aren't elastic bands to hold everything in place, but it's long enough to hold my 78 mm battery with a carto and the drip tip. Lo and behold, when I got home and opened it, there was an almost-empty baggie of pot in it! I had felt that it was sort of crackly when I handled it in the store, but I thought it was just some sort of stuffing. You know how they put tissue paper in bags? Hmm ... I wonder how that got in there. My friend works in the store, so I should phone her and ask. Someone obviously was using this bag, though it looks brand-new.

Thanks so much this really helped get me out of a self-pity mood

 

[He's My Everything]

He's my everything- your hubby's update is awesome!!! Doing really well. My brother said the same thing as some other posts I just read. " but I'm still smoking" and I said to him and will say to all.. It's the ones that you cut out or don't smoke that is the achievement- don't be too hard on yourself.

Thanks, reptilr, I am very proud of him. I know I must sound very impatient sometimes, but I'm really not. I know how insanely addictive the cigs are and I am overjoyed that he's cut down as much as he has. I am looking forward to those analog-free days, though.

 

[Gormy]

Bah.. that never happens to me... LOL I did find an umbrella someone left in a cart outside in the cart return.. and a 24 pack of diet dr. pepper.. that's the extent of my good luck.

the slider only gets about 1 1/2 charges on the 78mm and about 3 full charges on the 65mm

Good Afternoon Everyone. I am about to switch to a new modem as that may be my problem and not the computer itself. So before I screw everything up and can't get back on line for a few days, I would like to share my story with you. It may encourage some of you.
I got my first starter kit in late Spring of 2010. It was a 510 set up. I was impressed and was alternating vaping and smoking the first few days. I didn't have my mind set to quit the analogs, but to make sure I could stay away from them when I was around my new grandchild. Within a month I was down to 3 cigarettes a day. What I didn't realize at the time was that I hadn't found the right niquid for me yet. I started having a lot of issues with the 510 gear and found the 808 setup. The company I chose at that time was a nightmare. Every piece of equipment was faulty. I finally found a company that worked out for me and eventually SI and my Volts that I now like the best. In the end, it took me a year to find the equipment and niquid that worked best for me. I was still smoking that 3 cigarettes a day. One day, late last summer, I realized I was smoking 4 cigarettes a day. I also realized that right after I had a cigarette I would go vape because I wanted the flavor of the vape not the cigarette. I finally got it in my head that I didn't know why I was even having a cigarette and one day I guess I just didn't. I don't even know when I actually quit. It just happened one day last Fall.
I just wanted to let you know how differently this can work out for different people.
I have gone through all kinds of issues also - most came down to DRINK WATER!! I still have days when I can't find flavor in my juice or it just taste bad. Maybe these are the days we all would have smoked an extra few cigarettes in the past??
Anyway - for those of you that are concerned because you still smoke while you are vaping - don't worry about it. It just might happen one day that you stop what you are doing and think hmmm - I wonder when I last smoked a cig.

Ok, hopefully I can get this modem hooked up!!!!!!
