  1. Quoting Bebop: "Well,. It's not true that there are NO CHEMICALS.  But it is true that there are many chemicals not found in vapor that are abundant in cigarette smoke.  There are some chemicals found in vapor that are also found in cigarette smoke but they are GREATLY reduced by a factor as much as 1/1400."   I'm sorry, I stand corrected.   

  2. By product is WATER VAPOR! The only things in e juice are: Propylene Glycol, Vegetable Glycerine (BOTH found in foods and beverages as well as some liquid medications), flavorings (widely used in foods, candies, cakes, beverages and the like) and nicotine IF the vaper wants it in there. Period. THERE ARE NO CHEMICALS as with cigarettes.

    As for calling it an "addiction", that's pretty strong language. Most vapers used vaping to ESCAPE THE ADDICTION of cigarettes and the 3000+ chemicals known to be in them. Please do not confuse the two. 

    A habit, now yes, it is a habit. A cleaner smelling, better tasting habit than cigarettes.

    Just my 2 cents.

    Building isn't hard at all but there is a bit of a learning curve at first..
    And your right, once you decide what RTA is right for you YouTube videos can show how to build it..
    Study ohms law and use a good online calculator like steam-engine or vape tool..be easier after a few builds under your belt.. :)

    @smacksyis so right. I always thought building was beyond me. I learned how to do it and now can't imagine not doing it. Saves money too! I have 2 Avocado 24's and they are easy to build on. Just got a Limitless Plus, so more learning in my future. If I can do it, you can!



     

     

  4. First and foremost for me is friendly staff, and imperative to me that the sales rep knows the ins and outs of vaping as a whole, I have learned a lot from hearing reps talking to other customers. I don't want to hear biased opinions on various tanks, mods, set ups. When I go in looking for "something" I don't want to be pushed to buy a certain mod/tank/set up just because it's the newest and latest thing. I understand trying to make a sale, but if I'm not interested in a 200w mod, stop with the pushing. The B&M I frequent has an awesome guy (he's the owner) and he will steer customers to the BEST set up for them. He makes recommendations but doesn't get pushy.

    As for products: I like to see a range of "stuff", from Ego batteries to the high end mods. I like to see a variety of simple Ego tanks to rebuildables, as well as the high end tanks/drippers. Having a variety of coils, and the supplies that go along with rebuildables. Nothing insures that I will never return to a shop quicker than stopping in for say: cotton bacon and asking for a particular wire than hearing: "Oh, I don't carry THAT. I hate that stuff". Tells me they are more interested in selling their favorites than what appeals to a variety of customers. And a variety of juice brands. Because juice/flavors/PG-VG ratios are as varied as the people who use them.

     

  5. At the risk of sounding like a dummy I have a question. I've heard about the additive 'Smooth'. I know the description on Wizard Lab's website says it helps "smooth out harsh flavors". Is this something I can use on, say, a cranberry flavor that is quite tart, to smooth some of the tartness down, rather than sweetening to the nth degree? I'm asking because, I want mix some cranberry flavors and all the cranberry juices I have purchased have a "bite" to them that make me cough my fool head off. Hubby noticed the same thing.

    Or is this something used for non-fruit flavors?

     

  6. I generally mix at 40PG/60VG or 30PG/70VG. I have found most flavors are good at 20-25%. Most of my mixes are satisfactory. Had a few duds but hey it's bound to happen!

  7. Hope you're feeling better Chris!

    Vaping, coffee, more coffee, and yes, yet another cup of the "starter fluid"! Almost time to get ready for shenanigans, oops, I mean work! And sincerely hoping my one co-worker isn't planning her usual tomfoolery of calling off because she doesn't like her assignment for the day!:wallbash:

    Apparently, my roots were shaped like fish hooks, which is why they wouldn't come out easily. This type of thing is common in Asian teeth but not so common in Euro-western Caucasians.  

    I had a tooth break off at the gum line once (Not a wisdom tooth, I never had any of those buggers in my jaws). After the oral surgeon removed the root he said I had one of those lovely fish hook roots.

    @Christopherto some degree,  the post-op pain will depend on your pain tolerance. If you normally have a high tolerance, it probably won't be too bad. If you have a low tolerance, you might want some heavy duty meds! Or take FXRich's advice! But please, don't mix the two together!

  9. All my DIY stuff is stored in a toolbox. Neither the cats or the dog can open it or knock it over. We have no kids at home so that's not an issue. Equipment used is cleaned, dried and also stored in ziplock bags. I always use a paper towel on the counter to hold my stuff so if there are drips or spills they are easily cleaned up right away. Aging liquids are in the cupboard.
