  1. My response from the NY assembly: June 6, 2011 Dear Constituent, This is in response to your letter regarding Assembly Bill A1468. This bill seeks to ban the sale and distribution of items containing or delivering nicotine that are not currently classified as tobacco products or approved as tobacco use cessation or harm reduction products by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and also to prevent minors from purchasing these products. Thank you for taking the time to write and advise me of your views and concerns. I do not support this bill in its current form. I voted against it in Health Committee and unless amendments are made to it, I will be voting against it should it come to the floor of the Assembly for a full vote. If either my staff or I can be of further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us at 845-463-1635 or via email at millerj@assembly.state.ny.us. Thank you again for writing. Sincerely, Joel M. Miller Member of Assembly 102nd Assembly District JMM/klp
  2. I just tried my first 6 volt vape on my Omega and it is awesome. I like the 3.7 volts with LR attys, but there is a noticeable difference at 6 volts. I know that Altsmoke is against stacking batteries but if I am using rcr 123a, protected batteries, is there any danger to vaping at 6 volts? Im using High resistance attys with the rcr 123's and it's amazing. Has anyone heard of any explosions, injuries etc. that it would be good to know about? I appreciate all of the help I've gotten here and I look forward to any responses. Doug...
  3. Thanks for the replies! I ordered some rcr123a's, a few Joye low resistance 510's for 3.7 volt vaping, and some Joye high resistance 510's for the 6 volt endeavor. I think I may have been going through attys because I was using the Yeti 510's that altsmoke sells, instead of the Joye. I'm hoping that the Joye is a better quality atomizer. Also, as per a video tip I found here, I removed the wick from an old atty and it seems to have rejuvenated it a bit. Thanks again, and I'll let you know how the 6 volt vaping works out with the SB. Thanks again! Doug M.
  4. I sent mine. I changed it up a bit to more reflect my own personal experience. I live in NY and it figures they want to ban them here. We have the highest tobacco taxes in the nation, with cigs at just under $10.00 per pack! There is A LOT of money to be lost when more people discover the wonders of vaping. I have personally watched a handful of people I know either quit altogether, or cut down massively due to the e-cigarettes. The disposable e-cigs are now being sold in the same convenience stores that charge an arm and a leg for the death sticks. What lawmaker has a right to tell an adult that they are perfectly free to pay through the nose for non FDA approved cigarettes, but cannot use a personal vaporizer as a safer alternative? It all boils down to one thing: $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ Doug M.
  5. Hello everyone, I currently use a Silver Bullet mod at 3.7 volts, but I am thinking about the Prodigy 6 volt mod. Can anyone recommend atomizers that work well at 6 volts? I go through 510 atomizers like crazy, and I do keep them moist and cool. I direct drip and even at 3.7 volts I get maybe a week out of them. It's still way cheaper than Newports though. I don't know if I should use low resistance, 510 or what. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you. Doug M
  6. From my own experience: I tried Chantix twice; the first time I was going through divorce so I was already depressed. The Chantix enhanced my depression ten fold! I tried Chantix again recently and suffered terrible mood swings. I am a very mellow, easy going guy and these pills made me snap at the drop of a hat. My GF and son both noticed radical changes. I had given up all hope until I discovered the e-cig. I'm now vaping with the Silver Bullet mod and I don't even really want to smoke. Once every so often, I think I want an analog and have one, but it's always less than fulfilling. I prefer the vapor. Also in NY, ten-dollars-a-pack is quite a deterrent! For the first 2 weeks I was burning up atomizers with this mod, at 3.7 volts! I had to learn to take long, slow draws and let the atty cool down between puffs. I tried all of the cessation products, but nothing worked for me like the vaporizers. I feel so much better and although have spent a fair amount to get started with vaping, it's been nothing like what I've spent on tobacco. Be careful with the Chantix; the list of potential side effects is disturbing!
  7. My doctor prescribed me this product a few months ago. It's awful. All it does is burn your mouth and tastes terrible. I still wanted to smoke when I used it. It does not produce vapor. Shortly thereafter I discovered the e-cig and I still have two cases of the nicotine from the Nicotrol thing left. None of the cessation products worked for me. The Chantix made me crazy, the patches gave me a rash, the gum gave me terrible heartburn and the Nicotrol inhaler just burned my mouth. After a month with a regular e-cig, I switched to a mod and have been able to stop my 2-pack-a-day habit. The vaporizers are the only product that worked for me to get rid of analogs.
  8. Hey everyone, I just got my Silver Bullet mod on Friday and have been using it on a regular since then. This thing is great. It is so much more effective and powerful than the regular e-cig I've been using. This thing vapes great! Any other SB owners out there that can recommend e-juice? I've been getting juice from Viking Vapor and it is ok, but I'm looking for a brand that vapes really well with the silver bullet. Thanks. Doug M
