HOOKER

Been in the upper 40s to 50s all week here. Snow is melting and spring fever is setting in.

they wouldnt send me one for review but Amazon is sending me one fer the nice sum of $23.09...

Just thought I would post an updated pick of the toys I use most often. The Provari is new to me and gets the least amount of use. Only reason is I want to keep it looking nice.
 

It has saved my life,I used to be very overweight and I smoked a pack a day.I have since lost 40 pounds and have completely kicked the nasty habit of cigarettes.I've been vaping for almost a year and its the best thing to ever happen to me.I could stop vaping tomorrow and I would be just fine,but i enjoy it and its more of a hobby to me now.It makes me happy to help others with the overwhelming endeavor of quitting cigarettes. Because I know first hand like others on this forum that it is not easy.With support and the right information it can be done.That is what vaping means to me.

My assistant's husband tried vaping but then went back to smoking when some major stress hit. He had some bad symptoms from vaping. I offered to troubleshoot and get him on the right road. Now, it's up to him to take me up on it. If he does, he's going to be surprised with lots of good gear that I have on hand to pay forward. These are my back ups of back ups of back ups that I no longer have a need for as I've moved on  

People compare it to fast cars or big guns or anything else we can hurt ourselves with BUT one has to be 18 and have a license to own a car and 16 and pass tests to even get behind the wheel. With guns there are background checks and age restrictions enforced.

But anyone can walk into Joe Blow Vape shop where some dumb teenager can show em how "cool" it is to blow clouds and sell them anything they want. It should be regulated 100% and if it were up to me sub ohming and cloud chasing would fade away and put the focus back on vaping as a smoking cessation technique.

I tried to take my 20 year old into my local shop last week and she has never vaped but quit smoking when she found out she was pregnant. She wanted some 0 nic because she was craving so I took her there and watched as they tried to sell her a RTA and Mod and all sorts of stuff before I stepped in and let them know she has all the hardware she needed. Even she walked out saying how foggy it was and how her eyes burned from the vapor as the tasting bar guy blows huge clouds from a .18 ohm coil he said anyway.

I have grown to seriously dislike the local vaping community and if imam being completely honest I fear for the future of vaping as we know it because of stupidity and immaturity making people push gear to their limits.

I read a while back on one of Tug's post that you would cough up a lung with too much nicotine...

I had to try it,,,
yup he's right I tried my 21mg & was praying that I wouldnt see my insides on the floor...

I'd start out low & build your way up to suit your needs...

I'll start it off...

last Thurs I swapped a guy a Vamo V-8 in Carbon Fiber



for a




but it gets better, I went on my lunch break ta vape shop & the sack had in it,,



not just 1 ZNA but 2...
We both still feel good about the deal & I feel REAL GOOD...

So I just got my new Melo RTA in the mail from SweetVapes.  love the idea of a sub-ohm that I can use on my 98 mile commute to work.  Kinda hard to continuously refill my dripper while driving.  I tried the Atlantis, but I couldn't deal with the spitting that I got from it.  Someone suggested the Melo, and that the coils from it might work pretty good in my Atlantis.  well I had to fill the new tank and give it a shot first ya know?
 
SO compared to the Atlantis it has a slightly tighter draw.  I normally ran the Atlantis wide open, this is more like between the second and third setting on the Atlantis.  cloud production is about the same as Atlantis.  Flavor is darn good pretty much like my Atlantis was.  
 
I have Ideas as to how I can free up more airflow in it and I may just try that.  Overall I like this tank. but then I have only been playing with it for about an hour.  I plan on trying its coil in my Atlantis tomorrow and see if that does anything for the spitting I was getting there.

I keep my stuff in one of these next to my filling station lol.

Hey, I figured out to do a screen shot Jeff...













There ya go... lol Seriously though, I'm not seeing anything anywhere to add anything at all except the words I type. It's also why I don't have a avatar. It's all good. I can just run my mouth and look at other people's pictures...

Well now, it'll be 2 years of vaping in May for me and so far the negative side effects include: No more hacking out a lung every morning, easier breathing, no more breathless stair climbs, no more arm falling asleep when I park my head on it whilst sleeping, no more panic attacks because of shortness of breath, better tasting food, more sensitive smelling, no more OCD about being down to my last 3 cigs, no more coughing when trying to speak to a class, no more wasting brain power watching the clock waiting for the next chance to smoke, significantly less expense, better flavour, more variety, better consistent throat hit with proper liquids and equipment, the hobby fun factor, enjoyment derived from discussing different vaping options and equipment, better blood pressure, feeling returned to fingers and toes, (x rated: better male function), more regular digestion, no more feelings that I'm going to hack myself to death and knowing full well I brought it on my self, no more cravings, no more anxiety that I've got to cut back on these things if I can't quit, and on and on and on........ Sometimes I still wonder at how easy it was over all and that I can go and go and go without wanting a cig after almost 50 years of thinking living without cigs wasn't wort living at all. Thanks to all the engineers and chemists amateur and professional who made and keep improving all the equipment and liquid to make this breakthrough in quitting smoking so enjoyable. I certainly don't know the long term effects of 50 years of vaping, but I do know the effects of 50 years of smoking, and if the last two years for me are any indication, I'll take vaping and FCUK the naysayers, lobbyists, greedy corporate scaredy cats, idiot congressmen and just plain stupid FDA bureaucrats.

Anybody want to come to our house for dinner tonight???

Me, too. I have an Infinite CLT V1 fitted with a Chuff top cap and it's one of my favorite cloud chuckers, but the V3 has triple the airflow.
