Well, it;s been over five years since i was blessed with freedom form the smokes and i finally got down to app. 20 mgs. of nic. I started at the very strongest...36 mgs., and stayed there till i discovered the Reo, then was able to go down to 24, where I've been at for about three years.

The past few weeks I've been coughing a lot and had a dry throat a lot and a lot of phlegm. I tried lowering the coils, raising the ohms, more coils, less coils,

more KGD, less KGD....then I got a brilliant moment yesterday and decided to add some pg to my juices...voila! I only diluted the four juices I'm currently using, but I guess I'll go ahead and dilute the big bottles now.

I've never been concerned about the strength of the nic...I figure it's a whole lot better than smoking 5,000 or so chemicals like i did for about 50 years!


I SURE DO MISS MZ. TORY'S BUBBLY SELF!!!!

I tried to wean down nic. I ended up really crabby after a few weeks. So back to 25mg, which is also easy to mix being 1/4 dilution

I was 2.5 PAD'er when I quit last year. Started with 24mg and moved within a few months to 18mg. I'm afraid to go any lower but at the same time I only vape about 2.5 ml a day. I might try moving to 12 but I'm going to have some stronger stuff on hand in case I need it. I've come too far......

i was 18mg for ages and HRH still vapes at that quite happily. But as i made more low resistance coils i dropped the nic a little every time i made a new batch of liquid.

I never noticed the lack of nic. I bought my nic at 36mg (and vaped that straight when i stopped smoking!) so every reduction has been a factor of 36. 24mg - 18mg - 12mg - 9mg.
Today i am at 1.5mg.

Like stopping smoking, it's just been a happy accident.

Not yet. I didn't have one on hand that was the right size, so I need to order one. Right now it's not terrible, my max vg juice seems to be too thick to make its way through the gap as there isn't Much of one... Just some due to the wrinkle coating on the Reo I think.
It works ok, but the RDA I converted to a true bottom feeder by swapping out the center post for a bf post from fatdaddyvapes works way better, so eventually I'm just going to buy a bf cyclone.

I am not going the cyclone route, I have another A7 I worked on th is morning stuffing O-rings inside of so it wont short out. Right now, I am enjoying how much juice gets in to the Juice well when I do squonk. Unlike the RM2 where I get a few decent hits, with the A7's resivoir trapping liquid like it does, it allows the wicking material to become saturated.


Obviously not as bad as what SoftSell is experiencing, but its officially started...

Add about 4 inches of snow and 1/4" of ice and that's what we have this morning. I was going to go out but with the ice being the way it is, I won't risk it. It was supposed to get into the 40's today but that hasn't happened, we're at 31F now. But rain is coming and once that hits the ice. Then I'm really not going out :)

put leaves on the trees, green up the lawn, take away that white stuff and the clouds and add clear blue sunny skies and mine is just like that too

I will take your 31 degrees if you take the 18 degrees we have here.

Surprisingly we haven't had too much snow up here, around 18" sitting in my yard, and it's been very mild temperature wise. January usually gives us a solid week or two of -50C, then hovers around -20 until March.

My uncle is in town from Florida and he does the Cigalikes at 24mg nic. We were discussing it and he chuckled at my 6mg, up to and unti, I let him take a hit off my REO @ .5ohms. He swore it was higher than 6mg.
Trying to talk him in to going with a tank system, since according to my aunt, he has been using the same cig a likes for 3 or 4 years and still smokes beside using them.

Don't know how you do it. We get quite a few subzero days, sometimes down near -20F. But that might be for a few days and then we end up back in the teens. Still too cold for me. And -50C, or F, is way too cold for me. Whoah, to be back in Florida again. One day......

Just looked at the images of the A7, looks generous. Do you have a build pic? Where would you recommend I get one? I see them all over for $10, clones?

Do I spot a fancy outhouse with a Christmas wreath?! Very cool!

Yeah, that was something my mom wanted for years and no one would build it for her. Was a weekend project just after I moved back here from Cali. It doubles as a shed for garden tools. Shingled and all...

Deal if you'll take the -5 degrees we're expecting Wednesday. :)

All trades are handled on a day by day basis and are final, there will be no adding of days. ROFLMAO

Well, I guess paying you Tuesday for a hamburger today is out of the question then, as well :)

I loved Wimpy.

As far as your "cold". I just don't think I could take it.

Still getting over the flu that the fat man in red left me. First time I have been sick since I started vaping. I know now that I am not addicted to vaping like I was smoking. When I smoked, no matter how bad I felt, I had to have a cigarette. I even stopped and smoked one time when hubby and son had to hold me up before going to the emergency room. Now that is pretty bad. But with vaping, it didn't matter. Pretty cool discovery and I'm glad I don't look like this anymore. . .
