  1. I didnt have an ipod or a playstation or a psp....i had a stick! And on a good day a roll of caps and a rock!...kids today are too spoiled and pampered...i miss the good old days

    Ahhh...memories. I'm so tempted to have my daughters read this thread.

    Sticks, mud puddles, trees and rocks to climb, bugs to play with...and...and...and...don't forget group activities like hide & seek.

  2. tiffany blue seems to be the new hot color if you cant find a pink unit. its also a gender neutral color so you can use it from time to time

    Gender neutral? Don't know 'bout that. But I own about 10 of these little babies. I always buy in pairs and I use a Sharpie to mark them, so I have 5 sets labeled 1a/1b through 5a/5b. I have 4 that are devoted to my mech mod and 6 devoted to my Sigelei. I keep track of rotation and I alternate the positions of 'a' and 'b' n both my charger and my Sigelei. But then...I'm a little anal when it comes to things like that. [emoji15]

  3. Got my bottle of PBFB today. Based on all the great reviews I have seen of this juice thus far I had high expectations. Very high expectations, indeed.

    I decided to make my first taste into a little ritual. I opened the bottle and gently let the aroma waft to my nostrils. Enticing. I wolfed down dinner in eager anticipation of the "dessert" that was to follow.

    When it came time, I grabbed a nice, cold Guinness Draught and took a swig. I double checked the coils on my Mutation X to make sure it was reading my currently preferred .5 ohms. I rewicked with fresh organic cotton and checked the ohms again. I put the Mutation X on my Limitless mod, popped in a fresh 18650 and prepared to have my tastebuds overjoyed.

    I opened the bottle, gingerly dropped a few drops on my atty and fired it momentarily. Oh...the scent. I don't know what paradise smells like, but I'll bet the scent met by my nose is close.

    I placed the cap on my mod, brought the mod to my mouth and fired the mod again. I inhaled deeply. Oh my...was I in Heaven? I exhaled and took another hit. And another. And another.

    I prepared to drop a few more drops on my atty when I remembered my cold stout. What to do? WHAT TO DO?!?! I only have two hands! I couldn't hold the mod, and the bottle of juice AND the beer, could I? Of course not! I did the only sensible thing I could think of at the time...I filled my Herakles, upped the watts on my Sigelei, grabbed the beer, took a seat and vaped. And I vaped. And I drank. And I vaped.

    And the skies parted, the Heaven's opened up and angel's decended. And I knew all was right in my own little world, if only for a few minutes.

    Oh yes...PBFB certainly exceeded my expectations. From the "fresh out of the oven" flavor with warm vapes to the "thick milkshake" experience of a cool vape...there wasn't a bad hit to be found.

    I will certainly be purchasing more of this in the near future, along with some others I want to try from Fadora Vapor.

    Well done, Comp. Well done.

  4. The anti vape law in Oregon looks like it died. I can't see how a state where you can see the air can complain about vaping. At least the last time I was in LA about 20 years ago I could see the air.

    You can still see the air. Some days it's a little difficult and things called blue sky, sun, ocean waves and mountains appear in various locations out of nowhere, but most days the air is still visible.

  5. so the 100 is upgradeable?  I was never clear on what the plus meant.  Nice buy there..

    I think the main differences between the 100w and the 100w plus are slight cosmetic changes (such as beveled edges for comfort), a spring loaded 510 pin, they got rid of the screw holes on the battery cover (I think the 100w had magnets, but also had screw holes while the plus only uses magnets, but don't quote me on that as I don't own a 100, only the plus version).  The plus isn't upgradable, btw.

  6. I've seen many of the same studies. Personal opinion only, but we definitely need more in-depth studies on vaping...potential side effects from the ingredients, how those ingredients react at higher temps, possible undiscovered chemical reactions between nicotine and PG/VG (including potential positive side effects to all of these things).

    I prefer to keep my vaping out of view of my kids. My oldest is at an age where peer pressure starts to take effect and I don't want her viewing it as something she feels is okay just because she see's me doing it. I also don't wanting her viewing my meager but growing set of toys as something "cool" to own and "play" with

    At the same time, I will take a hit off whatever device I'm using at the time, but I try not to do it around the kids for the reasons stated above. If I'm the only one home, yes, I vape indoors regularly.

    I also like to have my EMOW charged and filled with my favorite juice for long drives. I would never smoke with them in the car, but I will "stealth vape" and I blow whatever vapor is produced out the window.

  7. There are reports that say nicotine slows the progress of old-timers, I don't have it but I'm doing my part to see if it prevents it.

    I posted something related to that very subject yesterday in a different thread. My ex works in the biotech industry and her specific field of work is research into finding a cure or at least slowing the onset of Alzheimer's...her research includes the use of nicotine in a large number of her studies.
  8. I got the subtank mini in the mail today vaped on it with the .5 ohm coil a bit and it either puts out so much vapor or the nicotine level or PG/VG ratio I was using just had me all choked up almost as soon as I started hitting it I was coughing up a lung...is this something that takes a bit to get use to as far as subohm and coughing or what? I was using a 8mg Nicotine 50/50 blend ......I think it's also fair to say that I'm use to mouth to lung hitting on my iclear 30 and nautilus mini so does straight lung inhales take awhile to adapt to?

    Same thing here. I think was a combination of the PG/VG, nic level and not being used to lung hits. Mostly lung hits. I can now vape 50/50 with 6mg nic with no problem in my Subtank mini with the .5 ohm coils, although I do prefer higher VG in it.

    A smaller drip tip and short inhales worked for me in getting used to it.

  9. Yeah be prepared to start buying more juice with that Arctic tank, it's a juice hog; especially with that 0.2 coil. I love mine.

    I ordered my first bottle of PBFB from Fadora this afternoon...0 nic, max VG...but that's for my Mutation X v3 and Limitless combo...I have plenty of Charlie Noble juices in various flavors for the Arctic and other juices for the Herakles.

    Beautiful thing about all these tanks I'm aquiring along with all the juices I've bought...I'm quickly learning which juices vape best (for me) in which tanks.

  10. i like kanger quality, but i have to say that for me the kbox just falls short ( i have seen its on sale at under 25 bucks) I personally went with and am happy with the IPV mini 30w. I am debating on an all black ipv mini 2 70w unit.

    Agreed on the kbox. Checked one out the other day. Felt...chintzy...cheap. Threads were very suspect for me...both battery cover and 510 threads. With the money I've spent on some of my tanks, I'm not about to risk cross-threading or stripping threads.
  11. Welcome FXRich, experimentation is only a sign of evolution

    Agreed. If I hadn't been willing to experiment, I might still be on analogs. At the minimum, if I had remained with my first setup and not experimented I would probably be $500-$600 richer.

    Just remember, sometimes Darwin wins and finds ways to thin out the herd - frequently due to experiments gone wrong. With the help here, though, keeping Darwin at bay shouldn't be too difficult to do.

    Rule #1 - Safety first.

    Rule #2 - Safery first.

    Rule #3 - Refer to rules 1 & 2.

    Rule #4 - If still in doubt, ask Tam, TugBoat, Earthling, Compenstine, HOOKER, vaping_jake or any of the other fine, more experienced people here on VT and they'll tell you - Safety First.

  12. I've heard terrible things about Chantix. You have my heartfelt condolences for your loss...

    My Dr. mentioned it when I approached him about quitting smoking. I already take an anti-depressant and I guess you're not supposed to take them both. When I told him I was taking Wellbutrin, he closed that subject almost like I was asking him for laudanum. Is Chantix still on the market? Because they know something about that drug they aren't telling us.

    Ironic given that Welbutrin is not only an anti-depressant, but is also one of the medications that is prescribed as a "stop smoking aid". I was prescribed Welbutrin when I was younger. It didn't work.
