Dooooooomed ,,, so serious :eek:

She'll be vaping in the mountain when she vapes

LOL, well, only doomed until she gets home or stops at a vape shop. But it is unpleasant to learn that the hard way. How many people have you seen on ECF that only had one battery and it breaks? Just wanted our Peach to know up front, **** happens. :oops:


How's the vaping down under?

Hi David! Tourist town. Everything in Orlando is overpriced. There is a new lounge here called OVAL for Orlando Vapors and Lounge. They have an ejuice bar, serve food and drinks, TV, pool tables, chess, contests, nice atmosphere, but I haven't been at night. They wanted nearly $100. more for the MPV than I found it online, shipping was waived. (because I'm bipolar and an uncontrollable spender). My husband is a non-smoker and doesn't vape, but he's a rocket scientist and techy. (He's also bipolar.) He was ready to purchase a half dozen rebuildables, wick and change coils and have me dripping. I had to say Whoa!
I don't recall "meeting" anyone else who knew so much about vaping before they started vaping. That is fantastic.

My cousin was successful and is a big advocate. I'm optimistic that I can wean myself down from 18 mgs as long as I don't nurse it like a bottle and start chain vaping, but if I do, so what? Gotta be better than analogs.
Nicotine: not a carcinogen. And yes, it often happens that those who reduce their nicotine levels end up vaping more juice in order to get the same amount of nicotine they were getting previously.
The only thing I know about kiss is that I got my first french kiss in six months on mother's day when I told Greg I planned to quit smoking.
Our lips are sealed. Hey everybody! Make sure you don't tell seapeach's husband about Greg!
We all have different, but very similar stories - some pick it up and never look back - some have to work at it - your personal commitment will the guiding instrument through this and we will be here to back you up...
I couldn't have said it better myself, Semi. (Now there's something nobody anywhere has heard from me very many times.)

Yeah, peach. Mods... don't really matter much. Tanks... pretty much anyone will do. Is there a difference in flavor? Yup. But pretty much marginal. The real key is the juice. Find the right one and you're golden. Instant quit. But that's a challenge. We're all different with different tastes so no one can really recommend any for you that you're guaranteed to love. I guess you'll be starting out looking for tobacco flavors. Pretty much human nature. I think we all did. But once you wander out of your "safe zone" into the wonderful world of flavors you won't believe how much more enjoyable vaping is compared to smoking.

Right, nicotine is not a carcinogen. In fact, nicotine is beneficial with Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, Tourettes, ADD, Crohn's disease and others. Nicotine is only harmful to those who shouldn't use a vascular constrictor and you health insurance.

I'd like to meet Greg when Peach goes back to her husband. :)

Going Good Flamingo.
Got a mod on order and some bottom fed modified attys , so see how that way plays.

Nice going! So, how many different mods and attys are you up to now? Must be an impressive collection. You've certainly left Sloth in the dust by now.

Oh, and have you found a source of PG and VG close by yet?

I have not been asked whether I use nicotine when I've enrolled for health insurance under the ACA, twice (once for 2014 and again for 2015). I've only been asked if I smoke.

You are on a roll today, Flamingo. How can comedians survive when you're giving it away for free?

Got the vg covered , Only added some pg once to a small test batch of juice.
Don't use it that much in the juices , the flavours and the 100mg nic in pg which i make a base out of are the only pg.

Good thing Sloth didn't send you the whole 250ml PG bottle I sent him to send to you. :lol:


Oh just the usual amount - Have one mod Ive ordered and four attys and one mod I'll try to get.

I meant in total now. You should be able to stock a fine vape shop by now.

Interesting thing about that. Since nic is found naturally in a lot of foods I don't think they could ask you that. Anyone who says no would be considered liars.

I still got the bottle of pg , thats the one I've used once , though maybe I'll add some to a bigger juice mix.

Sigelei mod + smpl mod + istick20w though thats sort of just a spare for someone else + lemo + goblin + subtank mini + marquis + 4 others that are no good.

The first year I didn't realize that nic was tobacco use, because, you know, it's not. Second year I was using 0 nic. I've saved them, and myself, a bundle by stopping smoking and ceasing to get sick (I'll get something eventually, but not like I used to). Lying about vaping when insurance companies are trying to punish someone for doing something good for themselves and their loved ones, is one lie I don't have a problem with. Maybe they should start forcing people to pay the smoker's fee if they take niacin or eat eggplant. Snarl.

You guys are on quite a roll setting me up. Thank you one and all! Any day I can zap the beagle is a great day for me. :D

You didn't realize you were buying a backup when you bought two, but having a backup is vital. Battery dies, you're doomed. Tank breaks, doomed. Tank leaks, doomed unless you brought extra juice. I carry a spare coil, tank, juice and battery if I'm away from the house for more than an hour or two.

You are a daring woman. I don't drive to the local convenience store, minutes from home, w/o taking 2 PVs with me. :w00t:

There is a study somewhere of something like 400 test subjects and all tested positive for nicotine. Naturally, I can't find it but the point was, everybody has some nicotine in them.

I did find this though.

The hair of mummies from the town of San Pedro de Atacama in Chile reveals the people in the region had a nicotine habit spanning from at least 100 B.C. to A.D. 1450.

Additionally, nicotine consumption occurred on a society-wide basis, irrespective of social status and wealth, researchers say.

I have two different sized coin purses so to speak - the small one will hold a batt, two coils and 5 ml liquid - with the larger one I can make it two batts, and my stealth vape mod...
