The mod uses N-MH rechargeable AA's as well as standard alkaline AA's, and the pre-built coils designed for the device are 0.50 Ohm.
So you are taking for granted that the manufacturer has done all of the R&D and knows what they are doing? OK, if that is good enough for you. It isn't good enough for me.
I'd feel much safer knowing the continuous discharge rating of the battery I'm using so that I can use Ohm's Law to be certain its safe to use to fire a sub-ohm coil. I've used stacked NiMh batteries in a mech mod before (several years ago) and the battery life was horrid.

I believe quite recently I declared my intention to become a key (and if necessary Joan of Arc like) figurehead for the issue of black market vaping.
I meant it I mean, NO, I'm not going to like turn to nic lozenges for the rest of my life and whatever, that just won't happen. I have started exploring the world of snus, so unless that gets outlawed too, l would use that if needing to be stealthy.
Morally unjust laws deserve to be broken. So, I would break them as often and as fervently as I could, because frankly I have broken enough LAWS period, just because I felt like it, to PASS up the opportunity to do so, armed with MORAL OUTRAGE. Etc.
I mean.... Vape is illegal so I'd quit. Whomever said it, meh, boring.
That's the thing though, it's almost like vaping rehabilitates a personality along with the switch to vaping.
Like, I smoked proud, I smoked hard, I smoked long, I did whatever was needed to obtain my habit cheaply and whatnot, and yes, I am no longer a smoker but the Rebellious ME is not going to say, "Oh gosh, I could get into trouble now, better stop." Nor is the rebellious me going to let ANY entity make ME start SMOKING but me.
So yeah, I would do my best to walk that nice fine line and I'm sure I'd get incarcerated or shot at some point, but I do genuinely mean it and did immediately start stocking up and whatever from the moment I started DIY.
if it's some total power grid outage thing, I have NO CLUE what I will be doing because my meds would be more pressing, so whatever it was besides robbing drug stores and yea, I might be smoking THEN, that's a STRESS SMOKE NIRVANA scenario, and when that option ran out well, GOD only knows, but I don't think *I* would care that much at that point.
There's only so much zombie apocalypse game I am willing or even ABLE to play, frankly.

When I was about 12 years old I took a 9 Volt battery, some flashlight bulbs, and some spare wire out to a local creek at night. I attached that battery, bulbs, and wire to a large stick. Once it lit up I floated the thing out into the water. It was pretty fun. I'm pretty sure that I could make my own mod and I'm pretty sure that all of you could too.
This isn't a mech mod. The device actually works great. I was surprised by how well it works. The Amp load is tiny. The device supplies a continuous 1.85 Volts through a 0.50 Ohm coil using two batteries.
Growing up it became engrained in my head that I don't talk "if talk". But if I were to break my way of thinking I can say that I would not vape anymore. There's a beginning and end to everything. Vaping for me was not a replacement for cigarettes and I can quit vaping anytime I want but I choose not to because I enjoy it. Many people say that vaping has become a hobby for them and it has for me too. Technically breaking a hobby isn't breaking a habit. Sorry if I'm being too technical
I would have to mix for my cousin and uncle as well. She's at 12mg and he's at 18mg. Would need 2 gal the unmentionable mg probably.LOL that would last me a few lifetimes.
Me as a kid: What can I do to make this battery blow up?
Me now: What can I do to keep this battery from blowing up?

Of coarse you couldn't vape, that's not the question. The question is would you go back to smoking? It's not my thread, so I shouldn't have even bothered, but I thought that's what the OP meant. Not that you could sneak it or doing it behind backs, but hypothetically couldn't at all.

I could see tobacco being grown. It was one of the best cash crops for centuries, and I expect it would be an excellent barter commodity in a SHTF scenario. As for the cigarette papers, I think you're right; people would revert to pipes. A usable pipe is trivially easy to make from a variety of materials.
I loved smoking - but I didn't like the health risks, the cost and the smell on my clothing.
Vaping fixes all of that - so that's why I vape instead.
If I couldn't vape - I'd smoke

I'd like to think I wouldn't, but don't have much confidence in this. I need my nicotine.
Pretty sure I would as well. The only thing that could stop me dead in my tracks vape wise is uncharged batteries.
Ditto. Worse case scenario is I run out and start jonesing for nic so I cozy up to a few people here on the board, find out where they live and rob them. Yeah, I'll be nice about, I'll empty their nicotine into a thermos and replace it with PG or VG so they don't know. Even though I am a large man, I can move like a jungle cat. Sure, it's a super bloated jungle cat but a jungle cat none the less.
With the FDA talking about removing nicotine from cigarettes that would eliminate the return to smoking for me...if they go as far as making vaping illegal, I'd probably either keep on keepin on with my Vapocalypse vaping like I have been for four plus years, or make a big mess someplace that would place prominently on the seven o'clock news...
Just a friendly PSA (because you quoted him), don’t start with @Rossum if you decide to do that
Your welcome
I know it's a silly question on my part because it's just not going to happen but was just curious. I think it's a tough question to answer , and most just say try and stop me but really don't want to answer because it's a hard or tough thing to imagine going back to smoking.....thanks

I'd cancel my subscription to ECF to cover my tracks.....that's step 1..
