    I feel like I'm drinking oil, not smoking

    Here's a Novel Concept... Maybe you should Ditch those Disposables and get something that People say Works?

    It would save the Wear n' Tear on your Keyboard from posting everyday about How Terrible they are.

    @Weisen , you may have noticed you used two terms that really set people off around here... oil and smoking.
    But, instead of giving you a hard time I will try to help. It's water soluble e-liquid (or we just call it "juice") that usually contains (but not always) nicotine. Also, please call it vaping not smoking. So... now that you know the jargon (correct terms to use) let's move on. What device are you using (presumably a cheap disposable)? Have you ever used a different vaping device before? Did you or are you quitting smoking? If you are really interested in vaping, we can help you find a better device (and good deals... vape shops are overpriced and corner stores just sell crap) If you are vaping "the other stuff", there is a special forum for that... we don't discuss that on these forums. Finally, how old are you (be careful... it's a trick question)?

    In all fairness, if the OP is vaping, not smoking, the "other stuff", it is oil, not juice. That stuff apparently cannot be dissolved in VG or PG as it is oil soluble. The OP needs to post their question in the correct forum if that is the case.

    I forgot to mention... some vape devices I have the instructions are a poor translation from chinese to english and they often do use the term "oil" so I don't blame other people if they accidentally use that term.
    That whole evali thing got us really upset about calling it oil.

    I wonder, maybe Triumph have started moving into the disposable e-cig market?

    if you really wanted oil, back in the day - it really had to be BSA which we all said stood for Best Scrap Available!

    Apologies for derailing the thread .... but I started off with a Tiger Cub which while it didn't leak oil was prone to offering either headlights or ignition at night but not always both!
