Here's one for you...when I was a smoker, and riding around town with the wife, I'd get a lil ...... when she'd park close to the store, because I wouldn't have time top take a few rips off of a smoke. Now I park as close to the store as possible, because, it doesn't matter anymore, I'm not quite so..."chained" as I used to feel. Quite liberating actually, wouldn't consider going back to those days at any price, and back then, I would have paid any price to be free from those compulsions, and to top it off, vaping is virtually a pretty much cost free endeavor these days...lovin' every minute of it :)

Poster boy of the year. My hero. I think we all remember getting in as many drags as possible before going into a store.

The thing that I enjoy the most is being able to vape in the house. The only juice I use is a very mild menthol/koolada so it doesn't impart any smell to the house which makes DH happy.

On the other hand I remember one fine night in December several years ago when we lived up north and the temperature outside was in the single digits and I was standing outside my front door smoking…no smoking inside. I HATE cold weather, anything below 60 is cold. I was standing there smoking that cig as fast as I could and I was shaking like a leaf. Boy was I stupid?

I wish I had known about vaping then.

I'm with you.

Except being 2 hours north of Buffalo, NY my winters are in the negatives - nowhere near 60F. Nothing like standing outside smoking outside while your nose hairs actually freeze. :eek: About as dumb as it gets.

My wife and I never smoked inside, but now vape inside when our 4 year old is asleep or not nearby.

Being not chained to smoking is amazing. I now can go hours without a vape. Actually, my first vape today wasn't until after noon. Didn't even cross my mind to vape as I was busy with my daughter.

We never smoked around our son when he was little either but he knew we were smokers.

Wow, you can go several hours without even thinking about vsping. I can't do that. Most of the time my provari doesn't leave my hand and if for some reason I put it down and can't find it…:shock:. Don't get me wrong I don't chain vape, in fact I only vape 2 mls per day. But having the mod always with me gives me the security that I csn vape if I need to.

DH was a smoker too and one of the few people I know for whom the patch worked. Me I smoked WITH a patch. He quit 3 years before me but he remembered the struggle.

If nothing else but for the purpose of springs ... yes, the same. And yes, pretty sure Mini's are 2.5's

Oh sure, other models will operate in 350 mode same as a Mini ... BUT there is only one "Mini", with "Mini" stamped on the side ... and it's a 2.5 and has the same spring as a 2.5. Don't use a P3 end cap in the 2.5 or Mini. The boards are simply glued into those tubes and can't stand the pressure from the larger P3 springs. Might work for little while (might not), but not good. Don't do it or the circuit board could come unglued and just rattle around inside the tube and the 2.5/Mini won't work anymore.
