  1. I'm gonna go with... no, but I did, and found it to be informative (for the time), and interesting. None of the article's message said that PG is supposed to be "pretty toxic stuff."
  2. Glad I was able to help, @Walt!
  3. Mmmm Vanilla custard filled cinnamon danishes... Can you tell I haven't eaten anything today?
  4. If inhaling PG is unsafe, then you have to ask yourself why they put PG into asthma inhalers?
  5. See? And you can put this into "what you learned about vaping today."
  6. If you still like those flavors, get 0 mg juice of the same flavor and mix it down to 3 mg.
  7. Okay, for the most part with a premade coil, two weeks or a little more is doing good. If your new coil sat for that long and it still tasted burnt, I'm wondering how high the wattage is that you're vaping at? With a new coil or using new-to-you juice, set the watts low, vape. If that's not working for you, turn it up a bit, vape. Repeat until you get a slight burnt flavor then back it down a bit. That's the sweet spot for that coil and juice. Don't go by what settings others tell you to use, use your own judgement to let it tell you when the right wattage is (if you're using lower than what's recommended).
  8. Just a few questions to satisfy my curiosity... What brand and model of tank are you currently using? How long is the coil lasting before you have to change it? What is it doing for you to think it's defective? What resistance is your coil? What kind of juice are you using (PG/VG ratio and is it really dark and/or sweet)? With the answers to the questions above we might be able to help you make a coil last longer. Dark, sweet juices will burn out a coil faster then light, not as sweet flavors.
  9. Adulting sucks. :(
  10. Congrats, @Bebop! Four years isn't anything to hide in a corner, you should've shouted from the rooftops. @VapeMama, glad to see you! And we need to see you more often around here, you've been pretty quiet lately.
  11. Saw that the other day, it's an interesting article. We need more like this!
  12. Thanks, everyone! @Bebop you weren't too far behind me when you came on. I'm glad you came to VT -- and stayed, this place wouldn't be the same without you and your wit and knowledge that you pass to new and experienced vapers alike. @Edna, you've been a very welcome addition and a very quick learner! I look forward to seeing your first year vaperversary soon. @Earthling789, you know... I might actually have some old CE4s in my stash o'stuff. Might need to take a look one of these days and go through all that to see what gets unearthed. Sort of like a vaping time capsule, lol. Thanks for sticking around and being such a valuable resource to old and new vapers. @Walt, this place is special because we have members like you so come, ask questions, listen to the answers given, and then pass that along to new people coming in. I'm looking forward to seeing you around for years to come!
  13. Even after year of trying everything that was available, I was never able to stop smoking. One day, five years ago, I saw a co-worker outside sucking on what looked like a pen (eGo T 650 mAh) and exhaling plumes of what looked like smoke but smelled so much better. I stopped and starting asking questions. That night after work I stopped by the B&M and bought myself my first vape gear: an eGo-T 650 mAh battery, two CE4 tanks with 1.5 ohm coils with a 5-pack back up, an AC adapter, a charging cable, and three bottles of juice. Back then, it cost a total of $165.00 A few days later I went back and discovered that eGo had a new battery out -- a 650 passthrough! And Kanger put out a new tank -- a T2 with top coils/short wick. I started vaping and collecting more back ups, more juices, never really looking back. The six packs of smokes I had in the fridge remained there for another two years until I finally threw them away. The first six months or so, I'd tempt fate and would light up just to see if I still liked it or not. The answer would be... not. Haven't looked back since. Around the first six month mark, I was playing on the internet and discovered a different vape forum. It was too big, the people weren't very patient with "noobs", nor were they very kind or friendly so I continued looking around. Hey! Check out this new place I found! It's called Vapor Talk. The people were very friendly, very knowledgeable, and I felt welcomed here. It's where I call 'home' now. The people are wonderful, they are all about helping new vapers with their questions no matter how many times they answer the same thing. They enjoy derailing threads, but that only makes the conversation more interesting and the subject comes back around... eventually. Yes, we do periodically get some bad apples here, but it's rare and they usually get tired of our slower pace and go away. The good ones stay. Eventually, I was asked to become an admin here, and it was a scary thing, and I'm still learning. This long-winded thing is my way of saying a BIG THANK YOU! to @Christopher for starting this forum, to my fellow admins and mods, and to all the wonderful members here (both old and new), who make the forum a place to hang my hat. These days, after all this time, I no longer have any doubts that I'll ever go back to smoking. Vaper Talk has played a huge part in helping with this. Happy 5-year vaperversary to me!
  14. So far I'm liking it a lot. The Ace of Spades sampler comes with two cartridges (basically cartomizers) filled with a higher nic (16 mg I believe) juice in menthol and one in tobacco flavor. The automatic cut off is about a four second draw? Decent vapor and throat hit too. I would definitely recommend this for those times when you need more nic, less time to vape-types of situations. You'll need a thinner juice for the filler material to absorb -- I would go more VG than a 50/50.
  15. Got these in a few days ago but I've not been feeling well and forgot to post here. All from the VT store: 1 - Kanger Aerotank 2 2 - 5-packs of coils for the above 1 - Aspire Nautilus X (@Christopher's recommendation and I'm really liking it so far!) 1 - 5-pack 1.8 ohm coils for the above Then, @Christopher added Ace of Spades pack, extra cartridges, juice, eGo battery holder... and his generosity knows no bounds! I'm trying the Ace of Spades cig-alike, and so far I'm liking it a lot more than I would've thought for stealth vaping. Still in the testing phase right now but so far I'm pretty impressed at its performance.
  16. Oh, we can get derailed at any point, lol. Seems like our attention spans are -- LOOK! A SQUIRREL!
  17. Hi Dave, I'm moving this over to the General Vaping discussion so it'll be seen more. The Lasted Products is more for rolling out new products that others may not be aware of yet.
  18. Well... I don't know about 'discourse', but we sure can talk up a storm given the right incentive and if it's to derail a thread, lol.
  19. Welcome to Vapor Talk.
  20. Nice thinking outside the box!
  21. Thank you! With my eye sight being what it is, I have a 25" monitor just so I can blow things up to 150% for easy viewing. Aaaahhh, this is much better. Thanks again!
  22. Noticed that there's a new forum layout where there's the newest topics and new posts on the right hand side. Just my personal preference but it makes the content of the posts feel too squished together and busy. Is there a way for us to customize how we look at the pages and take that out if we want?
  23. http://www.vapingpost.com/2017/05/03/air-sampling-confirms-secondhand-vapor-is-harmless/ There's the link to the original post.
  24. I'm with @Walt about the models. I would like to see a hunky beefcake model one of the men's t-shirts, please.
