Hi all! I just got into vaping when an old friend of mine actually bought me an ego-c for my 30th bday (which just passed on Friday). When I posted on Twitter that I wanted to quit smoking analogs (cold turkey) when I turned 30, he went online and purchased me a kit from ConstantVapor.com. I got my kit June 11th, and have been analog free since then. When my BF smokes analogs around me, the smell of it makes me want to gag. I honestly can't believe I used to smoke cigarettes for so long! BF is actually thinking of getting a kit for himself, since I started, just so that we can vape together. To be honest, vaping has been the best decision for my health that I've made in a long time.

The Innokin iTaste VV version 3 with VW and passthrough This is one I'll be saving up for! They're not expensive, about 50 for the kit with the iClear's added. I love the retractable charger! I hope they are as sturdy as they look and stand the test of time. I already want to recommend them to others lol. Patience dear, patience.

Hello, I'm Hoosier. I started vaping just after Christmas in 2009, so I'm not new to vaping. Just new here. Basics: Used to smoke American Spirit non-filters I started with standard Joye 510's....bunches of batteries... I'm a dripper and currently use a Fatty v1 most of the time but carry around a DCA loaded with an I06 in case I'm out and about and unable to repair my rebuildable dripping atty. It's a rare thing when my ProVari is not in my hands or in my pocket. I'm president of the Hoosier Vapers club and usually spend my time on forums promoting vape meets and gathering news that impacts vapers in Indiana and elsewhere. I've been vaping my own mixes, exclusively, for about 3 years, but do enjoy sampling vendor juice at meets just to see if I still prefer my own...and haven't found a reason to buy someone else's juice yet. Looking forward to exploring this forum and getting to know the folks on here.

Root beer 30 ml at 24mg: 50/50 mix of pg/vg 10 drops root beer flavoring 2 creme de menthe flavoring 3 marshmallow flavoring I hope it works well. It worked for my tastes. You could always add some more root beer if you want it heavier.

I actually just doubled everything but the sweetener and it came out awesome! I'll post the recipe later today.

Lol crime. Man sometimes I get so worked up in the question I don't even notice my spelling errors or grammar errors. Anyway thanks kit ill have to pick up a menthol flavoring then.

MP. We must be neighbors. You might want to try Platinum Vapes too. You can taste test there too. On line ive had the best juices from Sweet-Vapes and from Vape Dudes so far. But when you start out its best to be able to test and find what you like. It is vapor only does 60/40 pg/vg mix and Platinum only does 50/50. On line you can mix what you like and get custom mixes. Best is to try out first then you can go on line and go crazy with flavors

Well I bought him a 1300mah vision spinner and the vapeonly bcc mini. I also picked him up a 10 pack 3ml sampler from tvr. Let's hope he will make an attempt to stick with it. Only time will tell.

A husband, tired of his wife asking him how she looks, buys her a full-length mirror. This does little to help, as now she just stands in front of the mirror, looking at herself, asking him how she looks. One day, fresh out of the shower, she is yet again in front of the mirror, now complaining that her breasts are too small. Uncharacteristically, the husband comes up with a suggestion. “If you want your breasts to grow, then every day take a piece of toilet paper and rub it between your breasts for a few seconds.” Willing to try anything, the wife fetches a piece of toilet paper, and stands in front of the mirror, rubbing it between her breasts. “How long will this take?” she asks. “They’ll grow larger over a period of years,” he replies. ... The wife stops. “Why do you think rubbing a piece of toilet paper between my breasts everyday will make my breasts grow over the years?” she asks. The husband shrugs, “Why not, it worked for your ass, didn’t it?”

So I've been vaping for quite awhile. I personally use a mechanical mod with an rda as my daily driver. My father-in-law has been smoking the stinkies for a little over 30 years and his last report from the doc said his COPD is getting worse. We've attempted to convert him many times to ecigs but he is hardwired old school and doesn't have the desire or patience for any "crack-pipe" as he calls them. Well that was until the bad report he received about a week ago. I want to provide his initial setup for him. I plan on getting a couple vision spinners but I don't know what is good these days as far as clearos etc. I know he won't have the patience for cartos just yet so that'll wait. I literally think he needs the most simple fill and go possible that will give him a decent vape. The last clearo I used personally was a Kanger T3 and I was not impressed. I've used vivi's with varying levels of success. My wife loves the iclear30 but I don't think he'll go for the size of it or the swivel tip. So basically I'm looking for something that will be used on an ego style battery that is super simple to fill and works decently. I know that's probably asking a lot but lets see what suggestions you guys have. Thanks in advance and I admit I feel kinda silly asking this considering I'm far from being new. I just haven't used a simple setup in over a year...lol. Thanks! Happy vaping! -mse12

I hate you All !!!! Now you made me go and spend more money. after all this, I of course had to try the KPT. Ordered mine on the marketplace (veteran vaper). Now I can compare my vivi nova, Kanger MT3, Evod and now the KPT. I really do love variety....my bank account, not so much

Nah, go ahead, pick my brain. I'm a horrible teacher though. I've learned what I know by screwing up and making things I didn't want to make. Unfortunately, that's the only way I actually learn anything, so it worked great for me...

LOL Kitsune! If I remember right, I blame mine on the 60's,

That would be like trading in a Ferrari for a Chevy Malibu. How is finding eliquid hard? VapeDudes.com Sweet-Vapes.com Mtbakervapors.com The list goes on and on. Also every Vision product I have ever used has leaked at least a little, Kanger makes much better products as a whole IMO.

I'm stoked,he mentioned that the MVP will be coming out with the same features! The MVP will be the one for me,I almost pulled the trigger on the 1st MVP several times but was put off by the lack of an ohm meter and some reported probs with the charging port. Looking forward to a new PV again

I love Root Beer, looking forward to the recipe! CRS? If I remember right, it means "Can't Remember Stuff" (for a polite way of saying that last word).

Lol uma! I'm sure they aren't that bad. I am probably going to start offering samples of the trials I make just to get feed back. No cost for them or anything just figured I would like to hear how they taste to other people.

I'm getting an order today that has peanut butter and marshmallow just so I can mix them.

Welcome to the community!!!! You're lungs are in good hands here, but unfortunately your wallet isn't. By this time next year, you and your man will start to wonder if quitting analogs actually saved you any money. On the bright side though, you'll have a ton of vape gear, and you won't smell like an ashtray anymore!!! :p

Can't go wrong with any of that. Let's hope the old man can convert. Good to see you're still around, BTW!!!

Congrats on quitting the stinkies!

Yeah I noticed that. Lol I went and bought some Loranns flavors.... I went a little crazy bc it was buy 1 get 1.... So I have like 14 flavors lol! And you said crime de menthe would help bring out the flavored right?

Yes you can !! just be careful how much you keep stored....the flavor does change overtime, but a couple/three months worth should be good. you will also find your taste will change along the way....I am always fussing with my flavors. The best part about DIY, if the flavor doesn't taste right, you can always fix it !!

Got my ikarus last nite from vapingace out of Australia. Got the wick n wire n vaping away. This this is so sweet!!!!

Cool thanks uma! And how's the provari uma? I have my eye on those ones for my new battery set to use at home.

I made a blackberry cheesecake today: 80/20 split of pg/vg at 24mg nicotine 5 drops Bavarian cream 6 drops cheesecake 8 drops blackberry 3 drops whipped cream 2 drops sweetener That makes about 15ml. It's a little light so let it steep for a day and it should be stronger.

I've highlighted the items I use most often when mixing. the 3ml bottles are the most helpful for mixing small amounts. as far as the kit....sounds like a good combination of items, you may find you won't need some of it. but that part is up to you. Currently I use 100mg/ml nicotine for mixing.....Keep in mind, Its is very toxic at this strength, then again 60mg/ml is nothing to get careless with either. Most bases, flavorings etcs come in PG. for PG/VG mixes you need to take this into account. I use the eliquid recipe manager for android on my phone. can help manage PG/VG rations, multiple flavorings etc. These 2 links are for quart size PG and VG. you can buy it by the gallon(s) for cheaper, but it is way too much and will expire before you can use it. Before investing a ton in DIY, start small and see if you like it. http://www.amazon.com/Glycerin-Vegetable-Kosher-USP-Quart/dp/B004C7MTLA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1372754260&sr=8-1&keywords=usp+vegetable+glycerin http://www.amazon.com/Propylene-Glycol-Food-Grade-Quart/dp/B005PZBRUC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1372754187&sr=8-1&keywords=usp+pg Hope that helps a little. give a shout out if you need more info. We have a few DIYers on the forum. Merry Mixing

wow i just copied this thread to my toolbar. there is alot of information here and im feeling a bit overwhelmed but i think im ready to get started. i ordered a few things from DIY flavorshack and hopefully they shouldnt be too long in coming but one thing i do have a question about that no one i have talked to can seem to answer.... everyone talks about a 50/50 mix or 70/30 or 80/20 of PG/VG. Now if my nic is a PG base then i have to compensate for that correct? likewise if its VG. can i actually purchase the PG and VG in larger quantities and just add the nicotine? or do you just buy the nicotine in the bases and add them together? EDIT: i was looking around on DIY flavorshack and i stumbled across complete DIY kits. now i dont think ill need some of the stuff in the kits but.... it does come with a complete mix set up and you can choose 6 flavors for mixing... would that be a better way to start then buying the stuff individually? this is what the kit contains: This is the "PREMIUM" DIY Kit -This Kit Contains 30ml Glass Dropper of 60mg of UnFlavored Mixing E-Liquid In This Kit You Can Add Your 6 DIY Flavors When You Add To Cart You can Pick PG or VG Snap Close Tool Chest With Top Compartments (12" L x 6 1/4" W x 3 1/2" H.) - ONE BOX PER ORDER THE PICTURE SHOWS OPEN AND CLOSED "Nicosorb" Cartridge Filler To Fill Any Model Cartridge ("Nicosorb is 1 bag of Fluval & 1-bag of 100% Poly-Fill (The Right Stuff) 20 ml of PG USP Grade 20 ml of VG USP Grade 20ml of VG/PG mix 4 - 3ml No Nicotine Flavorings of your Choice An Assortment of sizes 6 Drip Bottles 3ml, 6ml ect....

As you can tell, I love DIY. For me it started as a search for stronger flavors, as I am flavor challenged. I love the endless possibilities. If you have any questions or trouble, just ask. There are quite a few of us that love to help out.

Blasphemy!

VaporGod's Arctic Wolf Menthol E-liquid. It's like laying your tongue on the kitchen counter and hitting it with a hammer!

Banana... so you get a peanut butter banana sandwich flavor.

Personally I think the atty/tank combos like what you find on cigalikes are probably the easiest refilling method I've ever used. Just fill the plain plastic cap and snap it on the atty - EASY. Ex.: http://www.totallywicked-eliquid.com/products/tornado-and-titan-tank/titan-tank/titan-accessories/510-titan-tank-atomizer-2-2-product.html http://www.totallywicked-eliquid.com/products/tornado-and-titan-tank/titan-tank/titan-accessories/510-titan-tank-empty-cartridges-clear-2-product.html

Was able to vape in the ER tonight got a few looks but doctors and nurses realized it was a e cigarette. Doctor confirmed it was much safety than stinkys

Yes, thank you! Me too. I love the guy but he's just stubborn as a mule. I really think the doc scared him this last time so maybe he'll truly give it a go. I gave him a blu starter kit forever ago and he used it until the cartos ran out and never touched it again...I guess you can't deny the simplicity of buying a pack and lighting up. Doesn't get much easier, or deadly.

Just a few days ago I tried the VapeOnly Mini BCC and I'm very impressed. It's super simple yet gives off an impressive performance with the least amount of flavor muting I've seen in...probably forever. Good luck! I hope he can get converted.

歡迎來到蒸汽討論 Yes, from Google Translator I am not fluent in Chinese just being welcoming lol.

Thanks!! Let me know what you think... I couldnt do what I do without fav calculator!!! I have a few more up my sleeve, but Im just getting my feet wet, and finding the guts to post them!!

Tootsie Roll Recipe I was looking at several Candy Tootsie Roll recipes and came up with this. What's missing is White Corn Syrup. They don't make a flavoring for corn syrup.

I'm gonna make one of those Watermelon Frost recipes tonight --THANKS BREAKTRU!! --- and also a Peanut Butter Fluff and Chocolate. My girlfriend liked the Peanut Butter Chocolate I made last week and I'm gonna change it up a little with some marshmallow for her sweet tooth. Peanut Butter and Chocolate: Signature Peanut Butter 10% BlueMist Peanut Butter Cup 5% Lorrann Chocolate 3% EM 2%

French Pipe 3% - 7% French Pipe flavor imported from China(RTS Vapes) ---Let me know if anyone else has this DIY flavoring, I haven't seen it anywhere else. 93% - 97% Unflavored base of your choice It all depends on how strong a flavor you like and I like it kind of strong so I go about 6% I've been going back to this flavor time and time again for over 3 years and it remains to be my fav tobacco flavor, it needs nothing else to compliment it.

Watermelon Frost: Two style recipes for Watermelon Frost. Adjust to taste

Its amazing sometimes what combinations turn out amazing, when the obvious ones turn out crappy. Very glad you found one that works.

Waffle on order Ok i mixed 70% peanut butter 30% cran-grape. Im shocked! I can't put it down....freakin delish.

Mix it with Belgian Waffle/ Waffle. It's was delish when I made it!

I was thinking graham cracker and marshmallow....

A little grape, a little vanilla cupcake or plain waffle and it should taste a bit like a pb&j?

I find their negatives funny: "Some flavours (e.g. piña colada) have a lingering fragrance" I see it as an air freshener , it's better than an overbearing smoke smell radiating off you, or in the area your smoking. "Environmental concern about safe disposal of cartridges and batteries" I wouldn't see it any better than the cigg. packages thrown on the ground, or the buds left. They trash out more of an area than a e-cig cartridge. Never-less,the batteries are recyclable, and the cartridges, some plastic can be done the same I would think? Health wise- I have to agree, even though I ran before, my running now isn't as strained, so I personally see that their is health benefits to it. Interesting study, yet they need to do a wider range besides the small amount of people. Never-less, even their studies showed over 60% quit or lessened their regular smoking habits overall, any is better than none!

All of my doctors and surgeons love PVs. Even while in the hospital last Dec, I not only vaped the entire time but handed out vendor cards to nurses that wanted to buy a PV for their family member(s) or themselves. You wouldn't BELIEVE how many nurses smoke analogs.

Why yes I am.
