Good thoughts kitsune, I should have thought of that too.You sure do a lot of good for Larsens!

Miatafraink, I'm with you - drip vape repeat. Unless of course I'm using a cartomizer which I totally dig. Gnerd has to use something because his commute is too long for dripping and he's conscientious enough not to try to drip and drive.
Bro I hope your issue was simply too-dry a cart and that it picks up for you. Failing that, you may just have to drive those last few miles withougt a hit, and get there early enough to catch up before you go inside. How's it going now?
Unfortunately, I'm analog for the drive until someone comes up with an 801 cartomizer (which is something Indy Vapor appears to have an angle on) or I can find decent fill material. I emailed the guy at strictlyejuice that kitsune linked to, but he said his plugs are too small for 801s. Brian emailed and pointed me to some higher-resistance 510 cartomizers at nhaler that might work for menthol. I'm looking in to that, too. Miatafraink, that taste in the default cart material is what's driving my mission to find an alternative - plus, it just doesn't hold enough liquid to get me to work.

I had used the Fluval (part #A-242) and never had a problem, but I never used it on HV.
This is what I used: FLUVAL
Last I heard of an 801 cartomizer was nhaler, but haven't heard anything lately. I'll have a look around.
Ok, that's the same Fluval I bought today. I'll probably just run some juice through it without inhaling for a bit and see if it "settles down." I'll head by nhaler and see if anything's there on the 801 carto front, but do please keep me posted if you hear of anything else. Thanks!

Having heard Fluval makes a superior packing material for 801 carts, I picked up some of the polyester water polishing pads today, rinsed and dried them and stuffed some into a cart. As soon as I vaped it, my throat stung and burned. I pulled the cart to see if it was melting - it wasn't, but the juice had gone very dark, almost black. Did I get the wrong stuff? Is there a toxicity issue with the polyester pads and heat? Has anyone heard if someone out there is working on 801 cartomizers? That would be ideal. 510s are just a tad too harsh for menthol.

I just wanted add my own experience with the Buzz and notcigs.com. I've been vaping my Buzz on the same set of batteries for two days. TWO DAYS! And it's still going! I thought my low-battery warning wasn't functioning, but I hooked it to a meter and the voltage output is right where I set it - 4.65V. I also received the most exemplary service from notcigs - both the Buzz and the company get my highest recommendation! The Buzz with an 801 atty and Tasty Vapor tobacco menthol is the Holy Grail for a former Kool smoker! Nothing else I've tried comes even close.

Thanks everyone! I appreciate the tips!

Hopefully this is the correct forum for the question - if not let me know. It's stock-up time and I'm looking for a vendor that sells Joye 302 atomizers in bulk. What I mean is, you can buy 5-packs of 901s or 510s at a significant discount as compared to buying 5 individual atomizers, but I've never seen "packages" of 302s. And I'd really prefer to buy larger quantities - say 10 or 20 in a package. Can anyone suggest a source? Also, I'm only interested in Joye 302s, not "alternative" (801-type) equivalents. Thanks in advance, hope everyone's having a great day!

Lawyers make tons of money based on that philosophy. Not saying you would, but plenty of people hurt themselves and then want someone to blame. That seems to be the American way, been that way for decades.
Christopher - as bad as the FDA? LOL. Being responsible is not bad...
My brother and I were raised to be independent thinkers, to be self-sufficient, and to accept responsibility for our own actions. We resent government intrusion in our lives, and deeply resent the current litigious state of American culture. We think people should educate themselves before engaging in any potentially hazardous activity, and barring that, stand up as adults and take their lumps for their own stupid behavior. We don't feel responsible in the slightest for people who fail to conduct themselves with a modicum of common sense, and don't expect to be held accountable for them. Just my two cents.

These bans are just crazy. We're fighting big money, and it's an uphill battle. But look to the open source software community for ways to win despite big money rolling everything it has against you. OSS is taking the world, because people can band together to achieve great things. We need not roll over and give up, regardless how it often feels that's the only alternative. Let's fight the good fight on all fronts.
OSS is alive today because our community has high-powered lawyers like Eben Moglen organizing and lobbying for us. I hate to be a downer, but if ecigs are going to survive in America, we'd better find some lawyer advocates who are willing to spend a lot of time in DC lobbying congress and refuting the anti-addiction emotionalism with scientific fact and Constitutional precedent.

What flavor, or combo of flavors come closest to a NEWPORT? Links would be appreciated. Who's got the juice?
I'm a former Kool full flavor smoker (as well as Newports on occasion), and had difficulty finding a satisfying juice. Since you're a heavy smoker, you'll probably want a super-high nicotine fluid. The best I've found to satisfy my nicotine/menthol/throat hit need is Tasty Vapor's Tobacco Menthol in 48mg strength. It's absolutely superb. He only sells in 1 fluid ounce sizes, so if you don't like it you'll throw away a lot of juice, but it's cheap at $15 per oz. I really can't see any heavy menthol smoker not finding it satisfactory.

They're not health promoters, they're control freaks on an anti-addiction crusade. They don't want safe alternatives, they want people with the temerity to become substance addicted to suffer. It's a Puritan thing - "Poison not thy fleshly temple pilgrim, or suffer thy God's eternal wrath!" They've mistaken themselves for deities.
-
what units are you all using these on??
I'm using them on a Super Six with a 14500 battery.
-
That's been happening to me, flooded and really loose liquid (due to heat I assume). Maybe its not so much that its flooded as it is no longer held in the wick? Turn it over, blow it out and let it drain maybe?
Maybe that's what I'm doing wrong. When I blow them out, I blow from the mouthpiece side to the threaded side. I blew the other way with an 801 once, and the whole wick assembly came out. It made me paranoid about doing that.

After using a 5V PT, the 3.7V experience just doesn't cut it for me. I ordered a Super Six with an 801 adapter thinking I could vape it at 6V. However, protected CR2s wouldn't fit in it. So I exchanged the 801 adapter for a 510, and ordered some of NHaler's low resistance 510 attys. I'm not getting much joy from them. They're great for one or two drip cycles, lots of vapor and great flavor. But then they stop producing vapor, and smell and taste burnt. They continue to make noise and get warm, but nothing rewarding comes out. Has anyone else experienced this? Am I doing something wrong? TIA.

Those guys don't have a contact method, and they really need to do something about that awful freakin grammar. That kind of thing just hurts all our credibility. If anyone knows how to contact them, please get them to add the freakin apostrophe that indicates possession: "Vaper's Coalition" There is just no excuse for this kind of thing in a public website, and the same error is repeated throughout. It's embarrassing.
Edit: Cripes it's in their freakin pdf too!
"Copyright 2005 All rights reserved" might account for the lack of contact info.

GSP hands down. I also have a problem liking the guy, and also can't explain it. It's not like he's cocky or anything - there's just something about his demeanor. But he really is unbeatable at this point. One thing about that guy, he's a serious worker. He's significantly better every time he fights.

I was a dedicated menthol smoker, and finding a really good juice was really hard. I'm also one of those freaks who vapes 48mg, which made it even harder. I found my Holy Grail in Tasty Vapor's Tobacco Menthol. In 48mg that stuff is the closest thing I've found to a full-flavor Kool. It absolutely rocks! Vape on!
-
Tasty Vapor 48mg Tobacco Menthol in both the VP2 and the VP/PT. Absolutely stellar juice!
-
Very lame. I agree SmokinHammer. If ecigs are effective at getting us of analogs and don't deliver nicotine, isn't that a good thing?
Not fer me! I WANT my nicotine!

I highly recommend this book on the subject. They're exceedingly rare, but worth owning. What a history lesson!

I actually like a lot of different kinds of music. Rock is my staple, but I like blues, bluegrass, some (but very little) country, rockabilly and gospel. Rap/hip-hop are out. My taste in rock is guitar-driven - David Gilmour/Pink Floyd, Aerosmith, Foo Fighters, older ZZ Top, etc. Recent discoveries that rate high are Broken Records, Built to Spill, Delta Spirit, Andrew Bird (although that guy can't really be categorized) and The Big Pink. For blues the standards are Keb' Mo', Los Lonely Boys, SRV, Henry Thomas and Joe Bonamassa. I like some Christian rock, notably The Call and Third Day. Warren Zevon is way up near the top of my list, and also Wishbone Ash for a good nostalgia rush.
Now you've done it - I'm going through my collection again...

Brian, "Paranormal Activity" is a really scary movie, but not bloody or gory. Nothing much really happens -- on-screen...
This is business as usual for Dave. Movies that have no effect whatsoever on my tween daughter will keep him awake for weeks.

I breezed through this and something I didn't realize near the bottom was the very terminology about the meaning of "to keep and bear arms". Some argue that the term is meant as a military term, not civilian. The wiki is a very interesting read. So my point always has been if it was written in regards to making sure a militia was maintained, then taking away someone's gun is not an attack against the constitution.
I have to disagree with you FTJoe. The word "Militia" at the time the Amendment was written was defined as every able-bodied adult. Modern political wanks are using symantics to redefine the word. It's <expletive>, IMO.
The Swiss have a true militia, and it's what America used to have. We need to get back to our roots.
