having to come back through security

Well - Don't know if this will help Ya' . . . However, for the past few years I really never had to wait in any of those lines and got through TSA usually pretty quickly so going outside was not too much of a problem - 1) Since I have certain disabilities I was able to get a "Wheelchair" to bring "Me" through the lines & TSA and 2) When a Male Agent was going to pat "Me" down, I always asked him to mention if he found anything interesting (with a wink) so I got through very fast . . . :lol: :lol: :lol:

Just Sayin' . . . ;)

@Krisma I am interested in getting a eVic AIO and am curious how the heads perform and if you are rebuilding them? Is the vape quality good? I think they are pretty smart looking devices and have the itch to get one.

edit:

Does it come with the BF RBA head?

I'm late to the party. I just got mine a couple weeks ago. I LOVE them.... I do have RBA heads (and as Kris noted, they do come with the RBA head), and I'm trying to get the hang of them - they are "funky". Once Kris shared the secret to keep them from gurgling, they're really awesome :)

I got the spare tanks the other day so I am set. Still a very happy owner here.

OMG :shock: Do you literally get patted down when you go through the line these days?

    Most people go through the scanner, but if you refuse to go through the scanner or can't for one reason or another, then yes, you get patted down. I think they might also pull people randomly for a pat down but I'm not positive.

    Ok thanks.........I just reallly like the looks of them and being kinda like a Billet Box is attractive. I do not like taking my BB out of the house as I have had a mod stolen from work recently. I think the AIO will work well for what I want it for. And the RBA is included so that settles it I must get one :)

    @kad2371 . . .

    While I do not have an iCare there is a woman I see everyday who does use one and if "You" vape anything like she does - Let's just say EVERYONE will know what you are doing on those flights . . . Huge plume of Vapor . . .
    cBFbKIt.jpg
    . . . Now - When I was "flying" and NEEDED a HIT OF NICOTINE it wasn't really what equipment I using at the moment (Although that doesn't mean Ya' still can use a HUGE MOD) - it was what "E-Liquid" I was vaping and how I was vaping . . . The main thing is that the "E-Liquid" can not have any after smell that a seat mate or flight attendant can smell - so it was usually just plain & simple flavorless "E-Liquid" with nicotine that I added a little "menthol/kolada" too . . . The other thing to do is make absolutely sure to take small little puffs and then "Exhale" any and all vapor that Ya' didn't swallow and/or hold on too into your shirt/blouse you are wearing . . . Almost as though you are being very courteous and coughing into yourself and not allowing the spray of a cough to spread to your seat meat or throughout the cabin . . . Even though there is more to say about "Stealth Vaping" on a plane - I think Ya' get the idea . . . :facepalm: Just sayin' . . . ;)
    I think if you had a iCare or Juul on a lanyard under your sweater or shirt etc you could just "cover" your mouth to cough or clear the throat under your clothing and take a lil puff and nobody ever to notice what your doing.

    Being a Diabetic and going through TSA Checkpoints - I didn't have to take off my shoes or belt . . . So they alway patted around my waist and sometimes used a "Swatch" on the soles of my feet ware . . . As I mention in "My" blog some people in TSA had more of a problem with the "Food" I had to carry onto the plane then anything else . . . Just Sayin' . . . :)

    Being in a wheelchair full time, I always get felt up (patted down), when flying.
    Sometimes it's the best part.


    :thumbs: Especially when they are big strapping young men - who just don't know what to do when I would show-up and even asked for assistance through . . . :lol: :lol: :lol:

    Yep - Seatmates never did notice and when they did give a look - I just pulled out another quick relief inhaler and then a mint . . . :facepalm:

    Last time I flew I had a ego twist with some 36mg and just exhaled into a pillow. Worked well and I did draw some attention from the folks across the isle but they did not seem to mind much.

    With my health issues i have to get up and walk around every hour. I figured i could go to the john and vape a few. I vape odorless and no clouds so that would work wouldn't it?

    You do have to be careful when vaping in the plane's head. There are smoke detectors in them.

    Just keep the cloud small so you don't risk setting off the smoke detector in the bathroom. Some photoelectric detectors can be set off by a vape cloud, and not knowing what's installed on a plane, I'd err on the side of caution.

    LJ, you beat me by a minute:)

    Sorry Eskie. ;)

    I usually do like someone else mentioned and use an ego battery with a pro tank aero mini. I normally vape 3mg but put 12mg in it. Super small and stealthy and I hold in the vape for as long as possible then exhale in my shirt or napkin. I leave all my regular rigs and tanks in my carry on. Which is the reason I usually get pulled over for inspection.

    Do you think our vapor would set them off? Even a small amount in my t-shirt?

    I dont plan a plane flight any time soon but i want to be prepared.

    Edit: @Eskie thanks you answered my question.
