Puffing away. Just pulled an Aspire Pegasus out of the vape closet. I really like it (I would say a surprising amount but I kind of want to work for Aspire, LOL, I have yet to encounter something tragically terrible from them.
Even my Cleto tank (while not for me too sub0hm) I liked it for what it was, just good, reliable vaping experience, no leaking, I just plain like Aspire's stuff. As well I should, the N2 was my "quitting tank" and I am so glad it was!

yessir. 1.5 ohms on my trusty mechs. I did get a little rowdy and build a .8 ohm coil last week. lol.
I also did get a baby beast stick thingy and played around with a .25 ohm coil. lmao
Good morning everyone! I will be moving in 13 days!!!! I have my vape bag packed but I’m worried about my nic in the freezer. The home we are moving into has a small freezer, so I’m thinking hubby’s ice cream space needs to be hijacked.

You can usually get a small freezer for a good price at a big box store. I had one on my back porch forever to store extra frozen food when all four of my kids still lived with me. I don't know if you'd get a better price now before it gets hot or if you waited until it gets hot when they start pushing their product and increasing inventory. It's worth checking on.
We are only staying in this new place for 12 mo, so I’m going to hold out until we are moved permanently. Plan on just living out of boxes until then. I’m going to have to fight for room on the kitchen counter just for room for my charger and batteries.

Then again, they haven't yet started in on ice cream (OMG!! It comes in FLAVORS!! Protect the kids!!), so it should be an easy decision on which gets room in the freezer
its all about the flavors!Then again, they haven't yet started in on ice cream (OMG!! It comes in FLAVORS!! Protect the kids!!), so it should be an easy decision on which gets room in the freezer

This article was actually in the local paper today . . .
Is that a dessert or an e-cigarette flavor?
Study: Ads for some tobacco products linked to youth use

Advertising for traditional cigarettes is strictly regulated: No cowboys looking cool, no cartoons and no bright colors that play up candy-flavored cigarettes that might appeal to kids.
Yet these bans don’t apply to e-cigarettes or vapes — increasingly a choice for experimentation by adolescents and young adults. These smoking products use chemical solutions with nicotine flavored with “juices” that have names like “Bubble Pop,” “Strawberry Cotton Candy” and “Peanut Butter Cup.” People inhale these as if they were smoking a traditional cigarette.
Young adults who are exposed to advertisements for these non-cigarette tobacco products are significantly more likely to try them, according to a study of nearly 11,000 people ages 12 to 24 recently published in JAMA.
Anti-smoking advocates battled for decades against the tobacco industry’s cigarette-marketing strategy geared to young people. What many viewed as “first-step” restrictions on traditional “combustible” cigarettes were advanced as part of the 2001 tobacco Master Settlement Agreement between state attorneys general and the industry. But many worry that gaps still exist.
“Our study reinforces that tobacco product marketing continues to be an important contributor to tobacco use among young people,” wrote the study authors.
Thirty-six percent of 12- to 17-year-olds who had never used tobacco but were receptive to ads ended up trying e-cigs by the end of the study.
Study participants were selected because they answered survey questions that indicated they were at low risk of using tobacco. They said they had never touched tobacco and “definitely” would not in the next year.
But almost 5 percent of them tried smoking e-cigarettes for the first time over the next 12 months, saying the ads for these particular products appealed to them more than ads for regular cigarettes.
That translates to 224,000 new smokers a year, according to John Pierce, the lead researcher and a professor in the Department of Family Medicine and Public Health at University of California, San Diego Cancer Center.
“If that happens every year, we’re going to have a huge problem with cigarettes again,” Pierce said.
During the past 10 years, a “dramatic shift” has occurred in the tobacco product marketplace, with e-cigarettes, hookah tobacco water pipes and small cigars gaining significant heft in sales — especially among this young population, noted an editorial that accompanied the study by Adam Leventhal and Jessica Barrington-Trimis of the University of Southern California’s Keck School of Medicine.
Sabina Rasoulov, 21, said she mostly sees people vaping on social media like Snapchat, and sees it as an easy alternative to cigarettes. She was not part of the study.
She also said, though, that her vaping habits have less to do with ads and more to do with her peers.
Rasoulov, a senior at the University of Maryland, occasionally uses a Juul, a brand of e-cigarette, mostly when she’s drinking. The floor of the bar near campus where she works becomes littered with them by the end of the night.
“When I work in the bar, every person has it in their hand,” Rasoulov said. “It’s like the new fidget spinner.”
The researchers compiled a copy of every ad for cigarettes, vapes and e-cigs for a year in 2013. One of the study’s limitations, though, is it did not include online or social media marketing ad images.
The researchers randomly assigned each person 20 ads and asked if they had seen each one and if they liked it. Those two questions determined how “receptive” each person was to the different kinds of ads.
One 15-year-old freshman from Bethlehem, N.Y., said he has vaped for almost a year. He said his parents know and disapprove. He also said many of his friends use vapes. He was not involved in the study.
He sees a lot of ads for vapes online and on billboards but doesn’t think the advertising makes much of a difference.
Still, he said, “it’s a constant reminder that it’s something out there for you to do.”
The study found that two-thirds of 18- to 21-year-olds and 44 percent of 12- to 14-year-olds were receptive to the ads. This finding was one of the alarms raised by researchers.
“If they’re only advertising to people who can buy the products,” said Pierce, then the ads shouldn’t be finding such traction among “almost half of the people (in the study) under the age of 18.” The odds, according to the study, were 60 percent higher that young people who were receptive to the ads would try e-cigarettes or vapes within a year.
That receptivity peaks around 21 years old, the age by which most tobacco users try tobacco for the first time.

Simple solution.
You need a vanilla ice cream vape.
And now..............NO more ads! Easy peasy! Thanks!
JC...Which ad-blocker...(on which browser)...did you end up going with???

If you live in the midwest, don't put it on your porch!
100f in summer, and 0f in winter will surely kill it!(and your electric bill). Californians put water heaters in garages!
If you live in the midwest, don't put it on your porch!
We get almost up to 120 degrees during the worst of Summer some years, and it gets up to at least 110 pretty much every year. I don't remember not breaking 110 and I've lived here for 20+ years. During the 'worst' of 'Winter' it will hit freezing at around 3 AM for a couple of weeks.
Sorry. I was assuming milder. That is one heck of a load for a refrigeration device. If you have not killed it, you are very fortunate. I have never seen one maintain it's temperature under those conditions. YMMV.
I used this one: uBlock Origin – Add-ons for Firefox
I have Mozilla Firefox browser and a Windows 10 OS.
I live in Alabama, I’m just going to wait and buy the smaller size (pt) ice cream. It will all work out.If you live in the midwest, don't put it on your porch!
I think in 'bama you're supposed to put it on the front lawn, in an old tire.I live in Alabama, I’m just going to wait and buy the smaller size (pt) ice cream. It will all work out.
No, back porch beside the old rusty beer fridge, with the old .... dog curled up guarding it.I think in 'bama you're supposed to put it on the front lawn, in an old tire.
