  1. While large, the unit is pretty comfortable to use IMO. I've never really gotten tired of holding it over a long period of time. Brain is right though, once you up the voltage it's hard to go back. I'm still vaping at 4.1 - 4.2 which is great. I've had mine for a couple of months now and still have no complaints. I use it as my daily device.

  2. It doesn't even phase me these days. I think for me, it's been so long I just don't think about it anymore. I have no lighters in my home, no ashtrays, no other smokers. It almost seems like a dream that I ever smoked at all. Add the fact that for me to start smoking, especially being the founder of this site, would be the ultimate fail. At lot of people here and around my town always watch to see if I'll ever start again.

    I will say though, that the first year I started vaping I relapsed a couple months in. Things where a bit rough and I just didn't want to deal with another stupid atomizer so I picked up a pack of cigarettes. They where nasty, but I'll admit, you can't fault how simple and quick they are to use. Since then though, I have not lit up another. It feels like freedom to know I'll never have to go back. I never thought the day would come that I could walk into a gas station and hardly notice the cigarettes at the back counter. I usually head straight for the chip isle. :)

  3. Yes and No. They tested two brands. One contained diethylene glycol one did not. The companies names where not released, the source of the e liquid was not release and the testing methods where not released.... Pretty shady if you ask me. They then sent this to the media and it was spun in the worst possible light. They also claimed suppliers sold child friendly flavors such as "chocolate chip." To this day, I've yet to see a chocolate chip e liquid. I sure wished they'd send us a sample to try. Sounds tasty.

  4. Some people have experienced dry throat when they vape. Other state they are allergic, while I'm not going to argue it usually the response I here is either A. It made me break out (which is probably bodies reaction to you no longer smoking B. Harsh throat hit, which is normal so they switch to PG instead (which is much smoother)

    Again though this product is still new (it's only been around about 5 years) so there are no long term studies. There however long term studies on tobacco, and we all know the result.

    Suppliers are not selling high just because they love money. (Mall stands the exception) If there was that much profit I'd be living in a huge house with 7 cars in the drive way. I can tell you, that's not the case. Some suppliers order "stock" flavored e liquid, some add their own flavors and others order the mixes to their specifications. You also have to keep in mind that suppliers need to add in the cost of liquid seizures. When 2,000 bottles of e liquid are seized and destroyed by the FDA and refund check isn't sent in the mail. It's gone along with any potential profit.

    Some suppliers also order by the gallon and then split up the liquid when it arrives in the states. This way is much cheaper but we choose not to go that route as we don't have a clean room. Instead we have our labels, bottles and liquid mixed at the factory. The more you have done by someone else, the more it costs.

    I would also like to remind you that that extra costs goes into paying for the servers that run this site. We also run out of a legitimate office building rather than our basement. Overhead costs and warranty claims add up. ;) There are a lot of good suppliers out there. I can assure you the majority of them are good people and are not out to rip you off but rather to sell a quality product.

    @mcquinn you just about nailed it on the head :)

  6. Sounds like you doing everything right. If you are getting harsh hit with no flavor, add more liquid, must don't overdo it especially if you have an auto battery. If you are getting a harsh hit wtih flavor, then you need to drop your nicotine level. You may also want to look at VG if you find that PG e liquid (standard) is to strong :)
