  1. Hmmm, interesting. I do clean my atties, but not before every use every day. I will give that a shot tomorrow as a test but I don't think thats it. I will report back, thanks for the response!
  2. Well, it appears the b ) makes a smile face with sunglasses, oops. I am sure most of you get the point!
  3. Hello all! I've been away for a while but have not stopped vaping! It's been just over a month now and I am still "In love" with this new contraption! Quick background, I use the Joye 510 with VG juice from wordup ecig. I only vape in the afternoon, this is because I only really smoked analogs after work at home with some beverages, so I am keeping that alive with vaping. I have noticed that when I first fire up the 510 in the afternoon it burns something fierce for the first 3 to 5 pulls, then after that I can go all night like a chimney with no problem at all. The only thing that I can think is that it either a) burns something off in my throat and lungs or coats my throat and lungs with the fluid, blocking the burn. Any ideas from my favorite vaping community?
  4. I also find that blowing out works well, if I am changing flavors I just blow it out and then twist 2 ends of a paper towel, one end I stick in the little hole, you would be amazed how much more liquid is in there, and the other I stick "carefully" in the other end and let it sit. Then just prime it up with a few drops and vape on.
  5. Well I just got my variety pack yesterday so it is to soon for a full review, but I tried one of the flavors and Brandon you were right! Perfect throat hit and tons of vapor!! For this one flavor, the cafe mocha, it's a little weak for me, but still very nice. I will update as I try the other flavors. I have chocolate mint, tobacco, 555 and menthol left.
  6. Great question, I was just thinking about this last night but only had my phone handy and did not feel like navigation the site on it at the time. Thanks for asking, I think blue foam sounds cool, I'm going to head on over and take a look!
  7. Welcome! Look forward to talking with you!
  8. also remember there is still a lot of crap in you lungs from smoking, it will be on and off for a few weeks. I remember from the other times I stopped smoking (can't say quit ) that my cough actually got worse in the few days after stopping rather than the other way around! But hey, the best part is you made it through the wine without an analog! Well done!
  9. I think I am going to order the variety pack, but quick questions. At $20.99 for 5 - 5mil bottles, isn't that $20.99 / 25 = $0.84 per mil, not $0.42 ? Great review, that is the only thing I noticed, and did not notice until I was comparing his price with what I get here locally. Which by the way is $0.60 per mil and no shipping, but it's not VG and that is what I am after! Thanks again!
  10. Thanks for that, I just found a post on another forum that was over 12 pages long. So, while it did not 100% answer my questions this is what I took away from it. A pharmacist said that it's VG and safe Humco, The supposed maker, said it's VG and safe Some people seem to have a reaction to it that may be allergies and they do not have a reaction to Wilton's? Wilton's is sweeter than the Humco(pharmacy/walmart) brand. So I guess I will try it and see if, A) I like it and If it makes me feel bad. Thanks again!
  11. Well folks, I have been trying to gather my own intel on this situation and am now more confused. I purchased the CVS pharmacy brand pure glycerin USP. It is marketed as a Skin protectant as several of you have mentioned. Some folks out there say that USP is USP is USP and it is the same as a VG like Wilton's. I read one guys post that said he used it and got blisters on his tongue so he switched to a food grade VG and they went away. The Active ingredient is listed like this "Glycerin 99.5% Anhydrous". To me this means that the product is 100% Glycerin that is 99.5% water free, so I don't really see how this can be any different (or much different) than the Wilton brand. Anyway the CVS is cheaper than the Wilton's, but I think in the end I can most likely purchase on the web in bulk cheaper even with shipping. OK folks, let me have all the 2 cents you have out there... Thanks!
  12. I do like 555! My first and, aside from a few samples and the juice I just made, only juice! It's only been a week and I am already thinking, "what a long strange trip it's been!"
  13. Thank you all for the advice! So, I got a few things at the store. I found pure glycerine at cvs, but am not sure as it "says" it's for skin and for external use only??? Have not decided on that yet though I know some people use it. I then went to a craft store and got Wilton Glycerine and Wilton Butter Flavor and Almond Extract. Thy did not have much in the way of flavors. The almond extract is water, alcohol and artificial flavors so I mixed it with the glycerine. 20% extract to 80% glycerine. Thus creating........ You guessed it Amaretto! For my first go I am very pleased! That said I see what people are saying about throat hit a VG. I can't really tell it's working untill I exhale that big plume of vapor! A was thinking the alcohol in the extract may help a little, but no matter how long or hard I pull I can not tell I am pulling anything. I thought I would like that because my throat was a little raw from all the vaping but I find I do miss a little something. Anyway, I wanted to share with you my first try, thanks again for the help! Sorry for any typos, posted this from my phone
  14. Ok, I have asked a few people this but an still waiting on an answer, so sorry for doubling up efforts Anyway, I am wondering, If I don't care about the nicotine can I go wrong with a simple mix of VG and food flavorings? I understand I will get more vapor and possibly less throat hit, is this right? Am I missing something here?
