The CHUCK???? c'MON....gimme a break!!!!

[Afubar]

Thats precisely what Im trying to avoid.....the "All of the above" syndrome!!!


Heeyyyy.....off topic, but dont most of these threads eventually fall off topic anyway? I just got my order of Cinnicide from Tasy Vapes...Strong flavor, strongest Ive tasted so far, decent throat hit(although I do prefer a throat hit to make me gasp a little harder)...but NO VAPOR on exhale!!!! Its 100% PG....are most 100% PGs like that? I threw some of it into my home made abomination of a mixture that I now couldnt even tell you whats in it...and its good in even that mess of a mix. But why no vapor???? Im only curious because I need to know if I should get an 80pg/20vg mix next time I order from TV.

I do the Cinnacide at 48mg with a 90 to 10% ratio. See, I smoked analogs for 43 years and the last 10 years of that I smothed Captain Black Little Cigars. When I first started e-cigs, I tried the 24 mg cigar flavored but felt I need more umph. So I found 48mg cigar flavored. Then I started reading about how people loved the Atomic Fireball (what it was called when I first got it) and so I ordered some, never expecting to like it as I really don't care for the "flavored" stuff, but figured I could give it to my daughter who loves the strange stuff, ok, I mean stuff like chocolate chip, strawberry, and other non tobacco flavors. Well, one cart full of the Atomic and I never went back to the cigar flavored. I am a convert. I do at times use the Cinnicide doubler and dilute my 48mg down to around 36mg, but not often.

Oh, BTW, I'm not a big burly guy, I'm an old decrepit granny.

Thanks Afubar.....I LOVE the flavor...especially after mixing it in with my other crap!!!

Hearing you refer to yourself as "a decrpit old granny" makes me laugh.....with a name like AFUBAR(Im sure that "fubar" has a different meaning for YOU than it does from where I come from), and seeing your customed chuck in the avatar...I just cant imagine you being all that old or decrepit...and as far as being a Granny...Im a grumpy-grampy myself!!!

Psssst... Don't get a CHUCK.... Get 2!

Once you get 1, you know you're gonna want the other too!

and the voices won't stop until you order the second one.

Hey BigDaddyRog, I think your version of "fubar" is right on target with mine. Something I learned from the military. Add the "A" in front and it changes it to "All" fubar'd .

Here's a pict of my second Chuck

It's called "Gear Acquisition Syndrome" otherwise known as GAS.

That's funny I always that that was Guitar Acquisition Syndrome..

Ok...Im noticing that most have 2 chucks? Why? With the battery lasting as long as it does AND being rechargeable....why did ya'll feel the need to get 2?

I think BigDaddy needs to go ahead and start blogging....

A thought process like that is something I'd follow

I got the second one because I went on a trip in March to Germany and Egypt and wanted a spare just in case I got one lost, broke, stolen, or taken away by customs. None of that happened but I just wanted to be prepared. So now I have one just in case one gets lost, stolen, broke or just because I like having a choice over which one I feel like carrying that day.

I have two Chucks because I don't want to be vaping on my Chargers Chuck during baseball games.
And I don't want to be vaping on my Padres Chuck during Charger games.

It just wouldn't be right.

I second that motion.


I started off with some crappy thing out of a gas station, that lasted....oh, all of 3 hits off of it. Then I ordered a Blu, that lasted a week. Then I ordered a 510 and that one lasted about 2 weeks. Finally I ordered a Ego and that has lasted me over a month now. The Blu was just recently sold to someone at my fiance's work place and my fiance is using the 510. I'm also trying to get into the making my own mod part, which I spent about $40 to get started on that and just spent another $30 to order a new soldering station. One day, I might have a feeling of completeness with this ecig madness.

Every day I come on to these forums and lurk around and read about this and that, and at the end of every day I have a whole new wish list. The Chuck is one of those things that is on the wish list every day. I'm thinking about buying one for my birthday, sounds like a good excuse to get one.

1. Refer to G.A.S. definition
2. Jeff makes 2 sizes silly
3. Big Chuck - 1 battery lasts days (3 - 4) and has 6v vaping option
4. Little Chuck - 1 battery lasts all day + (and is cute)
5. You get to go ahead and order that second design that you wanted anyway

I hear ya man! I just got the email notice that my fistpack is shipping today! Check out the price on that badboy! Saving money my ...! But, if I'm ever at the bar & it comes to blows, it'll make a great set of brass knuckles!

 

[KPKicker]

KPK...I gotta say it man....I love reading your posts...that inner turmoil that you struggle with is very familiar for me......the voices in my head have deemed you A-OK in their book..so Im forced to go along with it since they will torture me in my sleep if I disagree!!!

And I love reading your posts too. You are indeed an extremely clever and funny person.

Furthermore, our struggles do indeed have parity, polarity and a commonality that occurs on a level not easily attained except by those who have become enlightened.

Or schizo.

Wow, I haven't heard that song in 25 years at least. Makes me remember the times when it was current.

Psst, Rog. Just got Chuck #2 today!

I currently only own 1 Chuck. If I bought a second, it would be just in case the first one breaks. I've dropped it several times and no damage so far.

Anyway, A good battery mod really isn't more expensive in the long run. I'm guessing my Chuck will last a couple years at least, if I don't break it first. Also, the 2400 batteries I'm using cost less than the stock batteries. They're around 6-7 bucks if you shop around. Not just that, but if you compare the milliamps, X number of charges comes out to extreme savings. I'd be charging stock betteries several times a day, whereas I charge my Chuck batteries once every 2 days.

I bought some juice in bulk (48mg) and cut it with PG I bought in bulk. I bought the Chuck and 4 batteries (switch between 2, 1 charging 1 in use, and 2 for backup), and I bought a 20 pack of atomizers. That was 6 months ago. The original 2 batteries are still going strong, I'm using about 1 atomizer per month with tobacco flavoured juice, and I have enough juice to last another 1.5 years. Total cost per day comes out to under 70 cents.

The real sticker shock for beginners is buying stock batteries, upgrading to a mod, trying a bunch of juice flavours, etc. Once you get everything ironed out, it becomes way cheaper than smoking tobacco.
