Yup, you get stuck with me. And I can't sleep so I end up finally passing out about 5 am and then sleep most of the day. I am all backwards.

I never mind getting stuck with you. Somebody has to do it.

Just kidding! Love ya! :wub:

I will be up. I am always up. Forever.

She's not kidding, either. She's like Dracula or a zombie or something. :evil:

Good. Because I read in other forums how people are stockpiling everything thinking the Govt is going to ban everything any minute. From what I understand this has been going on for a couple of years. I guess if they turn out to be right, we will be in trouble until some vendors figure out how to smuggle it in from China. I read somewhere on here that something close to 75% of the juice or the stuff that makes up the juice comes from China. Don't know if it is true. Almost all the hardware comes from China except the Provari and Super T Mfg that makes mech mods I think, and probably a few others I have not run across yet. Same thing with batteries. USA does not make much of anything anymore.


I'm here was just watching the end of the Nationwide NASCAR race that I recorded while we were at the track.
I'm just kidding about pints of the juices, but they are just about good enough to drink. lol

As long as you can stick to the schedule you can wean your way down slowly and hopefully avoid the cravings. How did the snus work for you?




The snus helped get me past 2 1/2 hours I used it for about 15 minutes, I started to taste it at that point, didn't like the flavor so I took it out and started to vape

Yes, I'm with you. Alisa's descriptions were quite, um, graphic. I almost had to run to the bathroom just reading it. And I felt so bad for her, while I was laughing (sorry Alisa). Just like poor FQ and the painted child and dining room.

I'm still laughing about your description of your first snus adventure. :facepalm:



Same here, Shari. I haven't needed any of that stuff, and after Alisa's description, I'm sure glad of it. :shock:

Yeah, I'm thinking about starting to stock up on nicotine and learning to DIY. Then I'm going to learn how to rebuild my own coils and wicks...maybe even learn to build my own mods. Of course, with all that and work I'll never have time to get back on the forum. Nah.

Question for anyone that might have experience, I have VV/VW devices Vamo and SVD, they are nice, I have a regular twist and two regular ego style. Do you see any reason to save up for something like a 5 volt PV like a GLV? Is it any better than just turning up the volts on a VV to 5 volts? Just curious... People swear by it.

Aw... thank you, Thaya

Sadly, it's true. I did not want to reveal my identity. But you outted me. Sooner or later I will learn how to vape and sleep. Strange. Most people have trouble with the smoking. With me it is sleeping. And now the weight loss stopped. That sucks too. The gnocci probably did not help, but boy, was it good.

During our first collective Swedish Snus experience (poor Alisa), we found out a lot about Snus. You have to buy the Swedish Snus. The American stuff is as bad as smoking. Get the mint. Make sure you get the minis (?) in the tiny packets. It is supposed to be ok to swallow the juice and you are not supposed to get sick (you will never convince me). Let's see. Oh. I guess it is not easy to find everywhere probably because the American big tobacco wants to sell their inferior and more dangerous stuff. And all kinds of other little tidbits.

I'm not familiar with the GLV. Do you have a link? If it's a mechanical mod, then I wouldn't be interested. Those aren't regulated and most seem to use them to vape with very low sub ohm coils they make themselves. I personally feel that's a bit dangerous and am happy to stick with my VW mods.

We've learned so much cool stuff on here. Stuff I never dreamed I'd need, or even want to know. :blink:

I like to drip into a cheap 510 atty. You take it out of the plastic. You blow it out from the connection end. You screw it on to your device. You drip juice in it. Vape. Repeat. Throw away when it dies.

That's my kind of device and juice delivery system.

So on one of the other forums/threads and this was not in the area where rebuilding or any techie stuff is talked about, one of the guys said he loves to drip or use Evods. That's me too. So I made the mistake of asking him what he used for dripping. He tells me about and Igo-L or something and starts telling me how to rebuild it. Then 3 other people post and start telling me about how to rebuild a couple other things. I told them the first paragraph and that I was an old lady who needed simple plug and play. Then two of them offered to teach me. Those rebuilder types are really into it. I had to save myself and leave the thread.

GLV-2 Electronic Cigarette

it's very expensive for me, I am not sure if I even need anything like this, Some have said this is what got them to quit. I also see the Eroll, as something that might make more sense for me. Alot less money for sure. No matter what I would have to save a long time. It will not be an immediate purchase.

I'm sitting here trying to watch NHRA drag racing qualifying and participate here but I keep dozing off, lol
I can see that Itaste in my near future.

I've been wanting to try one of those for quite a while now. The problem is I only use ProTanks and they're much too big for it. Maybe I'll get a mini ProTank. Hmmmm.

That's rabid fanboys for you. They never listen. Did they also tell you to 'just get a Provari'? :rolleyes:

I obviously can't answer that because I am going to ask what a GLV is. From my reading, unless you have the money and want to push some kind of watts limit, most commenting seems to be that what you have will do you fine. A Provari for quality (and a couple hundred dollars) and a bottom feeder like the Reo (around $150) would be possible exceptions. I am sure there are several more. Remember, I am one month into this and only have a Spinner. Now what is a GLV.

Question for anyone that might have experience, I have VV/VW devices Vamo and SVD, they are nice, I have a regular twist and two regular ego style. Do you see any reason to save up for something like a 5 volt PV like a GLV? Is it any better than just turning up the volts on a VV to 5 volts? Just curious... People swear by it.

I couldn't rebuild if I tried, first: I am loosing my sight from Diabetes, second: I have arthritic hands and third: I am a ..... when it comes to technical things. I am as clumsy as you can get. I drip the same way Shari, 510 throw away. Mine last really long too, I have two that are three months old, I soak in vodka rinse in water and they keep going. I "steal" the vodka from my nephew, he's like a son to me. I make him bring it to me after he has people over. This way I keep him from drinking it and I get the cleaning supply I need. LOL
