I just stumbled upon an article and it peaked my interest. So I did some research, and some more, and some more and it just became a no brainer to at least try it. I really WASNT looking to quit smoking, I liked smoking. The week I decided to try vaping, they raised the price of a carton ten bucks, so that helped my decision. But the key was, it had to work. I tried the patch, what a joke. I tried the lozenges, disgusting. The e cig thing just really sold itself as far as the mechanics of it was concerned. I get to smoke without smoking.

I still have my first analog in the morning, Im kinda scared to go cold turkey just yet. And I am finding the same thing as smokingman, I dont get the hit like I used to. And my tastebuds must be opening up because the juice is having more and more flavor everyday. About a week and a half ago I got some camel juice from Vaporkings. I e mailed them to ask if they had any problems with it, I couldnt taste it AT ALL . Like it had absolutely no flavor. He replied that they didnt have any problems and that he was sorry. Now, the past 3 or 4 days, Im vapin that camel juice like a beeotch, its got an awesome flavor ( Though, it doesnt really remind me of Camel, its a lot like 555 ). Ive got some cola on the way, curious to see what that tastes like.

Youre welcome Sean, and like JM said, youre truly saving lives. Now, if you gave away a little money now and then, youd be saving a needy family I know of here in Floriduh !!

Defective Blu Batts, Attys And/or Carts? Help!
keenan replied to fatalis's topic in Troubleshooting & Technical Issues
I guess they named thier company right. Cause EVERYONE has the blues from Blu. As far as the LED when charging, I have the same problem, Bottom line is, just ignore them. They cannot be used as a gauge for when the batt is fully charged due to thier erratic blinking, so I just go by the old fashioned clock. About 30 minutes on the USB seems to work , maybe 45 on the wall charger. Charging the PCC, thats anyones guess, but I would think about an hour to an hour and a half should do it. As for having to draw on them like a wind turbine to get flavor or throat hit or vapor, when you figure that out let me know. I had the same problem, first few days was good ( looking back though, not really ) after that, I was lucky to get 1 good hit out of fifteen. All of these problems prompted me to purchase a 510, and the rest is, like my Blu, history. Since day 1, my 510 has performed like a thoroughbred racehorse, hit after hit after hit. I cant speak highly enough about how satisfied I am with it. -

Shame On The Us Goverment
keenan replied to TommyGunBC's topic in Vaping Legislation & Regulation News
I thoroughly agree, and maybe I.m a pessimist, but I think it will be WAY sooner than later. I have strong feelings of distrust for Obama as it is, but my biggest fear of him is his TOTAL lack of ANY experience in world matters. I mean he has little to no experience in domestic matters as well. But to compound the problem, hes surrounding himself with people of even LESS caliber. Its like giving the keys to your Lamborghini to your 15 year old son, and to make sure he behaves letting a couple of 16 year old cheerleaders go along for the ride. These are scary scary times. Government's first duty is to protect the people, not run their lives. Ronald Reagan -

A Video Responce To The California Ban
keenan replied to Christopher's topic in Vaping Legislation & Regulation News
OOH RAH !! The clock is ticking for you guys on the left coast. PLEASE , DONT think your letter wont matter, your letter might be THE ONE that gets through. " SO I get on my knees and pray ....... We dont get fooled AGAIN !! " -
Yeah, and Chinas economy didnt take as big of a hit as ours ( go figure ), so, if you buy from an American distributer, the money re-generates here even though theyre from China.

No, Easy E, NONE of that was aimed at you, I was just rantin after reading the news.

This is what I dont understand. I mean, I know Im not the sharpest knife in the drawer, but Im not an idiot either. And if I can figure out that E cigs, even UNTESTED, are better for you than analogs, I DONT understand where these holier than thou morons are coming from. It HAS to be MONEY motivated, it has to be. Theres a REASON theyre not going after Jack Daniels, or Boones Farm Strawberry Wine, ( which incidently DID attract me when I was a young and stupid teenager ), and thats because while a LOT of members of Congress and the Senate have probably quit smoking, I bet NONE OF THEM have quit drinking. Its STILL socially acceptable. Their lobbyists are still lining thier pockets with WADS of cash. I mean, these are the SAME people who allocate money for research projects like "The Study of how many times a catfish blinks his eyes on Tuesdays". These are the same people who let Medicare buy a wheelchair for $2300.00 when it can be purchased online for $ 780.00. Capitolism is eating itself, and the people we have elected to be our watchdogs are only worried about who has the most toys in the end. We have a false prophet for a President who is more concerned about "air-time" than FIXING the problems he promised to fix. NOW, he wants to take over the internet. Check this link out - http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2009/10/05/phil-kerpen-obama-internet-czar-acorn/ And heres a link to a story about the FTC starting to regulate blogging. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,560501,00.html This is TRULY disturbing stuff. THIS is the fuel for anarchy and revolt. "Let them eat cake" mentality. OK, Ive been ranting. Sorry. Thanks for letting me vent !

16 STILL beats 4000 ! Hell, if it had 400 it would still be better. I smoked for 30 years and didnt give a rats ******** what was in them. E cigs are saving lives, and money. Totally Wicked is based in the U.K. , so they might have different standards on labeling. Plus, I think different suppliers use different ingredients. But, until I hear theyre putting liquid death in them, Im still vapin'. ( Might not even stop then )

The Easiet Way To Fight The Ban
keenan replied to Christopher's topic in Vaping Legislation & Regulation News
Yes, its going to take EVERYONES voice to make this work. The odds are against us as it is, but that doesnt mean this cant be done. And theres NO law that says I cant ship presents to my friend Chris in California from Florida ! -
The Easiet Way To Fight The Ban

Sent mine out Chris. Hope EVERYONE else does too. -
Thats communisms version of capitolism

OK I missed something. WHO is the thief that I shoukd stay away from. I HATE thieves.

OK. Time for weekly question. I vape alot, at least I THINK I do, I have no one around me to gauge it. My concern is, am I gonna blow this bad boy up ? ( Im talkin bout 510 manual, I totally gave up on my blu). I tried dripping on the atty, and it works great, but I have to KEEP doing it every 10- 15 minutes. Will that hurt it, burn it up. And when I fill the cart, Im not sure if Im filling it too soon. I really cant tell if its dry or not. I still get a lot of vapor after QUITE a while, ( 45 minutes, maybe), but NO flavor, so I refill. Is that too soon. ? I guess what Im asking is can you overfill these?

The Fda Wants Your Comments By 12/28/09!
keenan replied to Kmel's topic in Vaping Legislation & Regulation News
Ive tried and tried, but I dont see a way to add a comment. It says it was over sept. 29 -
Thats an "Atomizer", the device that heats up in your e cig that produces the vapor. Its the part between your cartridge and battery. Other terms - batt - battery cart - cartridge vape - you dont "smoke" anymore - with e cigs you "Vape" Theres a lot more in terminoligy (sic?) but youll get the hang of it, Im still learning too.

I call mine Betty. shes SMMMMOKIN ! But I go by the model # too. Its just easier to remember
-
Maybe its because mine is new, but Im getting a good HOUR or more out of a cart. Im putting more than 3 - 4 drips in though, I pull out the padding, put 3-4 drops INthe cart, put the padding back and then another 3-4 drops. Vapes like a monster.
-
I think Ofortuna said it best. Get both. But if u cant afford that, its just like an e cig, whats good for 1 may not be as good for another.

Well, Its been about a week since I got my 510, so heres an update. The thing runs like a Buick ! Clouds of vapor, strong throat hits ( I wind up hacking a lot of the time for taking in too much), great experience. My batts are lasting about 4-5 hours, and I vape A LOT. Every once in a while, I will put it down and give my Blu a shot. Theres just NO comparison. Im giving it time to prime the atty, I;m being patient now because I KNOW I have a good machine waiting for me, It just does not come close to meeting my standards, which arent that high. I am sure the people at BLU are very nice people, and Im sure they are just as frustrated as we are, but honestly, pack it up and go home.

Sounds like you bought from the same company that sold me those fu@*#ing "Magic Beans"
