E-Cigarettes Emit Toxic Vapors, Says Study - Slashdot
That's just pathetic! :-x

This is the link to TheKiwi's blog.

https://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/blog-entry/kayfun-replacement-o-rings-and-screws.6169/

The screws where he was asking for a source can all be picked up at McMaster. He gives the sizes.

well phooey. Got so excited.......I've been trying to find a place the sells peek insulators for various tanks. A friend needs one, I think for the IsubGs. mod makers gotta buy em from somewherz

Keeping it mellow; oops put this on the wrong Forum. But a mellow jam and a good vape like Vapor HQ's "Sweet Tea" is always a good thing on a Hot day.;)
Seriously My Bad:eek:

I've really been enjoying these!!! Love me some soft jazz

BTW, lil' bad news, the customs declaration listed 'Temperature Control Mods'...
ohhhhhh dats not good! Glad you're likin em though. Did you say you got em from Gear Best? I know a lotta folks quit gittin from them, but I heard at least one lately who recently went back. Have you bought from them before? Thoughts on em?

This deeming better happen soon. It's costing me money buying 'stuff' I 'might' want in the future. Today's order

2x Kayfun V3 mini's
1x black Pico
1x hot pink Pico
2x boxes of Nauty coils. (always order a couple when placing other orders just because)

The Pico's came from an on-line site. They're located about 15 minutes from us, here in CO, but they don't have a store front.
Bite yur tongue Mister!!!!!!!!! lol I know you were only jokin....... but freeze yur CC or sumpthin........we're trying to make sure it never happens!! Nice haul!! Send you CC to me........I'll make sure you don't buy anything with it :sneaky:

PhIL, your 'I' key Is stuck on caps...
LMAO.gif
lmao........and I found out ........ it's phun to say Iphphy phive times real phast!

Well...........
Hate to say it but............
It's about that time. :(

"C" Ya All Tomorrow.
:cool: V V :cool:
what kinda time zone are you in? Like if it's 5pm for me in central time.........what time izzit for you? Does alaska have it's own, or several? Maybe it has more than one...... that's my excuse for not lookin it up. lol

all of my spare parts (orings/screws) are all mixed together....i decided to give myself a challenge in the future lol. at least they are all together in 1 tiny plastic container (air/water tight)
oh boy! That'll be worse than untanglin a knot of necklaces!!

Yep. That'z what the article led to. Too bad the mod didn't read it all.
I never can unbreak links right.....but the first article that popped up that I read was fairly short, and the only good thing in it was that advocates of vaping say it's safer. but still ended with a guy saying ecigs were still unhealthy

I forgot to mention that when I went to the Dr about my foot I asked the PA how they had me listed. They ask every time if I smoke. Every time I tell them no, that I vape. It's been no for 2 years now. She said they show me as a former smoker. I asked her they they keep asking if I smoke. She said most people quit but start again. I told her those people must not be vaping. She laughed.
I love it Kenna!!!!

Yep, but it all is still pretty Iffy at this point. A lot of cases out - it still could change some more.I
awwwwwwwwwww he said Iffy is purdy!!!! ......... dats sweet!! :p

While it's possible to break the 510 pin, it's probably not too likely to happen. But one or more of either of these make for good insurance:

$1.92 Spare Parts Kit for Kayfun Lite Plus V2 at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
$1.92 Spare Parts Kit for Kayfun Lite at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
That top link has the grub screws for the KFL+v2 airflow holes. The bottom one doesn't have grub screws. @englishmick if you have the 2 airflow holes on the bottom you need the first link. It also looks like the right 510 pin too.

I've been wondering, will the sun come up on 8/8, and anyone know a difference?

I think that once and if we really know what is the full extent and depending on just how bad it is we will see more and more vendors go under - then after the two year period changes will come. It will be slow. Only the ones willing or able to wait it out will continue. I guess you could say this is a thinning out action. It will be slow because it will get dragged out in court and beyond.

Yabutt the article had a link to the article. (I agree, slashdot can be weird) That one stated what was found (which I took with a grain of salt) but essentially said that vaping is still 95% safer. What I took from that was, while most doctors applaud vaping, it's still not really a good idea to breathe anything but air. Which I totally agree with.

Slashdot sold out to the devil earlier this year. Unless it's tech related, anything coming from that site should be immediately suspect.
Heh, slashdot was always bizarre. :) But usually there's a link to an actual article which may (or may not) clarify the post. The ramblings and rantings of the trolls there will give you a real headache tho! Sometimes infuriating, sometimes hilarious. ;)

Dear Debi,

As of August 1st 2016 the price of Essential Depot's 4 Gallon VG and PG GlyCubes are going up by a minimum of 13% (from $39.00 to at least $44.00). As VG/PG customer I wanted to give you the chance to stock up and beat the price increases.

To order visit -> USP KOSHER Pharmaceutical Grade VG and PG - Drums and Glycubes. Glycubes only $39.00 until midnight EST Sunday

The upcoming Feb 2017 Federal E-Cig Regulations have caused a spike in sales to the 5000+ Vape Shops we supply. The associated demand spike across the industry has caused VG and PG prices to go up significantly. Our manufacturer and supplier is giving us one more week to purchase at our current price. Please help keep your price as low as possible by ordering at the current price before August 1st.

Thank you again for being an Essential Depot customer.

I got the same email and made an order for 3 gallons VG and 1 gallon of PG. If I need more PG I figure I can always get more at Tractor Supply.

I do not believe him,, I think its a marketing ploy:

meantime,, the hole in this story is that many vape shops that make ejuice are actually closing. VG prices also correlate a bit with oil prices. (there is a world wide glut of oil).

I am sure there is a spike in VG/PG in the DIY sector,, but not so much in the commercial sector.

It can also be that they are basing it on their order history and have no idea of the deeming or what the deeming is going to do with the ejuice side of their business...

It's so hard to know ... DIY'ers are probably better informed than the average bear, and are surely more worried (given what I've seen & heard from "Joe Average Vaper"). They (we) know what's coming and will do what's necessary to vape. That said, I'm doubtful that vapers account for a significant percentage of VG/PG purchases. I would be both distressed and saddened to discover that any vendor was preying on fears about deeming.

i think some vendors would prey on the event. i ordered some nic recently from my old supplier,, it was short by 5+mls in each bottle.........so when i decided to buy a lot,, i didn't buy from them as i had planned to.
