yw hun. And for that price, the ego T would be a lot more expensive. I helped another person get a riva kit, cuz they were just sure they only wanted a cigalike......but they wanted more battery life. Took me forever to convince em that the riva was only a tiny bit bigger and would make them far more happy than any cigalike. No cigalike would give them the battery life they wanted, which was their biggest change they wanted.

Now, I get tickled. The last PM I got from him......he's wanting to check out provari, silver bullet with a kick, etc....... I told him pretty soon he'll be hookin a pony keg up to a generator!! lol But he don't want nuttin bigger than a cigalike! hehehe

Hi there everybody!

@Debadoo
That so reminds me of this video. Your friend may get a chuckle out of it. 4 Stages of Vaping...



Have been busy with DIY. Made up some cinnamon danish (Capella), tiramisu (FA), key lime (TPA), pear (TPA) and lemon merangue pie (Capella). They're all tasty enough to keep vaping. Do ya think maybe the fact that they cost $2 an oz instead of $15 or $20 is what makes them even more satisfying to me?!?

Happy to see that you're all being your typical kind, wonderful selves. Carry on!

Sweet dreams. :)

Cost is definitely a factor..But I think Pride in the fact you made something yummy yourself..Also makes them taste better:)

Caffeinated juice! Wow. Actually, I think I heard somewhere that medications are sometimes administered via inhalers, why not caffeine? I'd be pretty careful with it though, we could have a whole bunch of really jittery people walking about and we've got too many of them already. Maybe we need some kind of happy juice! Some Love Thy Neighbor Juice...

Looks like T2 coil heads are back in stock at the place we got em for .89 with coupon

Kanger T2 Sunfire Replacement Atomizer Heads (Various Resistance Levels) - Vaping Me

Use coupon code ecf for 10% off. Free shipping on $25 or more order :D


Just looked some more - if anyone wants an eGo Twist, this seems like pretty good pricing. A 650mah would be $20.69 after coupon. 1000mah would be $23.39 They don't have PURPLE though

I would make the same assumption in that I have a Gripper with a solid extension with no issues.

As to a wicking party in central Texas, what's the door prize for traveling the furtherest (new Iffyism) to get dere? Thankfully time is not an issue...

Hey Mike, have ya seen the thread on the 500 SS mesh? Whatcha think? I'm still shopping fer some rea$onable mesh.

No I haven't seen that thread Iffy - TY. Is it in the rebuildable atty forum? I have been seeing snippets in other threads where folks have been praising it for better wicking.

This is a reasonable price w/ free shipping.

Lookie what I found, although you guys probably already know about it hehe. I've often wished the Twist was a pass through because it's hard for me to accept that one day, my Twists will no longer hold a charge and have to be disposed of...eeeks. At least with a pass through feature they would still be usable even though not for out and about use.

I am gonna watch for the next coupon that could be used, and perhaps think about one of these. (like I really need one LOL)

Janet there is a vendor that has a juice like that, but I can't get on their site this morning for some reason...Welcome to Vapin' in the Cape - Often imitated.....NEVER Duplicated ~~ I can't remember exactly what it's called either.

I didn't have any problem getting to their site with your link. They do have the caffeine in the specialty juice. I think I like mine in my large cup with cream and sugar. Of course, I'm retired so I can have a cup whenever I want, but some people may appreciate the vape if they're working, especially when that 2:30 slump hits! I'm still look'n to find the happy juice!! Scratch that, I already have some. It's called Sauvignon Blanc.

Ain't it great? I love the cost factor most of all, but there is also something very liberating about knowing you can whip up a satisfying mix any old time you want or need to and not have to wait for the mailman! Also, once you get into it and have a little confidence you can add a little of this and that and come up with something brand new of your very own that rocks! (And this is where keeping records really really helps!!! Get a free program out there!)

Apollo eGo-VV Battery

I forgot where I saw it, but I think it's Smoktech that makes a VV passthrough for a good price that I vowed would be my next purchase cuz I LOVE my passthrough! I've had it 10 months and can't beat it! Hold on...here is one of them just for an example: Smoketech VV Pass-through I didn't go looking for best price or coupons or anything, but if you do, please let me know because now that I have mentioned how wonderful my PT is, you KNOW what is going to happen!!! LOL! I think it only comes in black or stainless steel, but that is fine with me! I always doodle with 'em anyway.

Mul, I love your new avatar of your own kitty, he? is so handsome!
Deb, I meant to tell you I love yours too! Cracks me up! I have a hard time believing it looks like you, but it sure makes me smile!
I just have to chime in too about the comment of how incredible it is that we have all quit smoking. I just never thought it would happen because I couldn't even THINK about doing it! Serious, it would just cause me to smoke even more! I swear the day it happened it was as if my mind was overtaken by the entire group of you guiding me...it was so far beyond my choice, my decision, my idea, my anything! I just did what I needed to do with no conscious input on my part, as if I was being led by those in the know. It was, and is, mystifying. I still get the cravings here and there, and I am so thankful for WTA's because they do the trick beautifully! (Thank-you Jerry, you have been sooo helpful!) Once in a while I find myself searching for my pack of cigarettes, (even if my PV is in my hand!) but I guess 45 YO habits are hard to kill after having done the same behavior about um, 740,000 times! Eek. That really sucks, pun intended! So thanks support system, could not have done it without you! OXOXOXOXOXO

TY CharlieGirl. I went and looked at that one - the voltage adjustments are more limited than the Apollo one. The Apollo will adjust in .1 increments from 3-6 volts. Lemme know if you see any others that will do that pleasey please, and I will do the same. We are on a mission hehe.

I don't know how well Apollo really stands behind the 1 year warranty they give, but hopefully they DO. Warranty is a pretty big deal to me.

What is good about the Apollo one is it has an led so you can see the voltage when you adjust it. With the Twist it is very hard to see. The one year warranty would be awesome for an ego type battery. I've never heard of a one year warranty for one before.

Thanks for the tip about the free juice! Sending that to a newbie here who is very short on cash. Kewl!

Cost is definitely a factor..But I think Pride in the fact you made something yummy yourself..Also makes them taste better:)

You're right Mul. There's a sense of accomplishment. Enjoyed the beautiful Good morning graphic!

Maybe we need some kind of happy juice! Some Love Thy Neighbor Juice...

Great idea! Make it by the gallon and pass it around freely.

@Kat56

Thanks for the heads up about the deal on the T2 coils!

@Charlie
You're a great example of how DIY has kept you so focused that it got you off the smokes, right? Thanks for the encouragement to "tweak". :)

@all
Good morning!

I don't know about the full year, but my Vtube messed up and they replaced it very quickly and it was out of 30 day warranty but within the 1 year. I had had it a couple of months. They shipped as soon as I provided a tracking number. I personally have been pretty pleased with them.

Ah, good point. Another thing I noticed while I was browsing is there seems to be a trade off... the ones that have a better selection of voltages seem to be hardwired, meaning you can vape as long as you are connected to something, but can't vape and go. I do have other batteries, but still have mixed feelings about that. I think if it came down to it I would pick the vape and go option over VV, but...it would be nice to have all the options, for the best price too! Some people want everything! LOL
