    306's have a tendency to leak a lot especially if you don't have a good drip tip. The cannon from www.cherryvape.com is excellent. The ultimate drip tip for the 306 is the new DCA (drip cup adapter) 306 from www.goodsensevapor.com. Hope this helps your issues. Oh BTW the DCA looks sick.

    Oh yeah Boba's Bounty!! One of the best I have tasted. Ive tried a lot of juices and I keep coming back to Boba and my Vanilla Tobacco from vaporpro. I did more research on that Provari and it looks epic! Love the variable volts. The black one looks sexy but idk if I wanna wait 4 weeks just for it to ship. Think it would work well with a 510-ego adapter and use my Ego Mega atomizers and carts?

    I've heard not to saw or dremmel them. Small shavings of metal can get into the fibers. Don't think I want to vape metal.

    COV, Most Angry Industries and soon Vapor Talk will carry them. But there are other suppliers that also carry standard Smoke Tech Dual coild cartos. (That's the brand in case you where wondering) Use Jeff's video above and you'll be all set

    I found it quite refreshing being asked what it was. I like opening peoples eyes to something that may work for them just by sharing my experience. Once I told them how cheap it was compared to smoking I really got their attention. Come to think of it, it's kinda depressing that monetary benefits outweighed the health benefits. Hey, whatever the reason for stopping is its a good one.

    Good review but don't think it fits my taste. I've been on a tobacco kick for the past couple months. I'm with you KaYoTiic. I order the big bottle of Bobas too. Can't leave home without it. I refill into a couple small Bobas bottles I have from when I first ordered from them. I love the AVE bottles too. Ya don't end up with a mess like my other 30ml. bottles I have.

    If you like Cinnacide you will probably like Geoff's blend from tasty Vapor. Even has some Atomic Cinnacide in it. As for other flavors try to stick with vendors that have sample packs. That'll keep your expenses to a minimum till ya find flavors you like. Once you find a vendor and want to find out what flavors people are talking about and buying from that vendor go to YouTube and type in the vendor and watch some reviews. Think about the type of foods you like and that will help you decide what ya may like. I personally am having a hard time figuring out my own palate. I'm starting to see flavors as colors. I'm leaning towards what I like to think of as "browns". Tobaccos, coffees, some cinnamons, and a few caramels. Kind of savory and sweet seems to be working for me. Every once in a while a fruit will please me but only for a little bit. Can't vape fruits all day. Hope this helps.

    CASEACE79 got a reaction from NipavappyCery in My Uncle Overdosed Using An E Cig.   
    I talked to my father the other day and come to find out that my uncle overdosed using an e cig. He went to the ER complaining of chest pain and severe skin irritation. The doctors said that he overdosed. On what I don't know. Sorry I don't have all the details. It was a relatively short conversation. My step mother went on to say that the FDA really needs to regulate e cigs and of course that caused a debate where she brought up that we don't know what the Chinese put in it and poisons have been found in some samples. I told her that most of the liquid we use now is all from FDA approved items like loranns food flavorings and vegetable glycerin and that the poison was found in 1 sample. I asked for her to think about it logically. Cigarettes contain over 4,000 different chemicals and electronic cigarettes contain 3 or 4. While not smoking will always be the healthiest alternative which would you rather do inhale vapor or smoke. She said that until the FDA approves it she isn't going to touch it. My father has since stopped using the eGo I sent him for xmas because he doesn't want to overdose. All of this may sound absurd but I can understand where he is coming from. My father has MS and 2 yrs ago doctors put him on pain meds in such high doses that using the medication as prescribed led to him having an overdose and being in a coma for 10 weeks. I personally don't think that my uncle actually overdosed on nicotine or any of the other ******** they fed him. He had only been using it a week and the doctors probably asked him the normal questions. Have you changed your eating habits? And other ?'s leading him to talk about the e cig. Out of ignorance the doctors not really knowing what was really wrong with him attributed it to his e cig usage.

    Here's my question for the community. What effect if any do you think the ignorance of so called medical professionals will have on legislation to approve a ban of e cig distribution? And here is the nail in the coffin. This incident happened in NY of all places.

    This is a very touchy subjest so I generally vape in stealth mode.I love doing it at the movies. Not enough people are educated enough to not be judgmental. If someone sees a whit plume exhaled out of our mouth the general consensus is that it is smoke. So I ask myself this question if it would be rude to smoke here? If the answer is no then I vape. If it is yes then I go into stealth vape mode. Except in sbux where everyone knows me and could care less.

    I happened on this question while reading a juice review and got upset that everyone was giving the original poster a hard time for their opinion. Is there an objectivity to taste? This idea nearly drove me crazy! I have come to the conclusion that taste is both subjective and objective.

    If taste was completely subjective then why do juice reviews??? If our opinion carries no weight then why do it? To further compound the issue how would you rate or grade a juice if it was completely subjective? Something that is a 5 out of 10 to you might be a 2 out of 10 for someone else. The idea of pure subjectivity doesn't give any of those numbers substantial meaning or worth. How is anyone supposed to decide if a juice is for them if it is purely subjective?

    Is taste purely objective? Of course not! We all know that. Otherwise we would all love the same thing. So taste has to be subjective then right?

    Lets use food as an example since when describing taste that's what everyone has in common. Is it fair to say that the majority of us like pizza? Then wouldn't it be a safe bet to say that we could recommend pizza to anyone who hasn't tried it with a 99% certainty that they would enjoy it? Now lets take a burnt cheeseburger. When I say burnt I mean charcoal. I mean it could break a window. Could you tell someone with confidence that they will not like it with 99% certainty? With that said we now have a system where we can be objective about taste. You can say that yes that is true but there is such a wide range between the two. Yeah but the middle is much smaller. When we really like a juice its safe to say that the majority will like it? When we really dislike a juice it's safe to say that the majority will also hate it. That's why our grading system of juices works.It's the same reason we have cooking schools or restaurants that have month long reservation lists. If taste was completely subjective we wouldn't have the ry4's,Atomic Cinnacide's,Dulcis',and Bobas Bounty at the top of so many lists.

    Science even proves that taste does have a level of objectivity. To understand what tastes good something must taste bad. Otherwise we have no point of reference which to base what good is. It is defined by what it is not.

    Which leads me to Honey Beez debate. Yes I'm going there! Every once in awhile there comes a flavor people either love or hate. Same goes for food. Best example I can think of is sushi. Very rarely do you meet anyone that says it's just ok.

    So why bring all this up? What was the point other than to make a point? To give value to our reviews and if we really like something that it is ok not to preface it with taste is completely subjective because it isn't. More importantly this message was to JUICE SUPPLIERS!!!!
    I have seen a trend lately of quantity over quality and honestly I'm tired of buying juices that taste nothing like their name or description. We wouldn't except this in food and shouldn't have to in vaping.Think of it like running a restaurant and if you couldn't put it on a menu with a description that is true or couldn't put it on the menu because it doesn't meet your expectations then don't put it on the menu at all. Some suppliers understand this and have very few but very tasty juices. Vaportalk, Tasty Vapor, Alien Visions, and Vaperite should be applauded for understanding that putting out a quality product will bring people back time and time again.

    So while taste can be subjective it is only subjective to a point. Without an understanding of objectivity in taste we wouldn't be able to rate juices or even be able to differentiate the difference between what tastes good or bad. Reviewers take pride in your preferences! They do mean something.I'll keep watching and trusting in what you do. Lastly to suppliers STOP making sub par juices that even you wouldn't vape. Take pride in the flavors you create. It's what defines who you are. Those who do will get my business over and over again!

    The reality is that taste is subjective. So why do juice reviews at all? If what we think about a juice has no weight then why waste the time? That brings us to the real truth. Taste isn't as subjective as we all may think. It's subjective to a point. There is an area where some juice will rise above the rest for the majority and fall below the rest for most people. Otherwise we wouldn't have juices like Dulcis, Atomic Cinnacide, Bobas Bounty, Geoff's Blend and RY4's on the top of of everyones favorite lists. While I think that the OP's review was quite vague I don't think it shouldn't carry any weight. If a juice is REALLY bad then it's safe to assume that it may fall below the bar for most. If that wasn't the case then juice reviews might as well be removed from all vaping forums because they would be pointless. Everyone deserves to voice their opinion so to the OP I say thank you I'll steer clear of this one for now.

    CASEACE79 got a reaction from kitsune in Got My Father An Ego For Christmas.   
    well when he opened it he was a little taken back. His first comment was I'm not ready for this. I told him to just give it a fair shot. Don't try to switch right away and use it when ya don't feel like going out in the cold (he lives in Buffalo) he liked the idea of that and not having to leave his office and go all the way downstairs and outside. I left it at that and didn't really push the issue after that. I know the old man too well and he's like a mule. The more you push the more stubborn he gets. Yesterday he asked me how it worked and I showed him. Huge progress. That afternoon we went out to Niagara Falls and he brought it with. He didn't use it the whole time he was out but I did catch him taking a puff or two here and there. I think if lI keep asking him if he was using it like once a week after I leave it'll keep it fresh on his mind and I'm kinda hoping the weather gets really cold and he sees how much easier it is to use than going all the way outside. Here's to hoping. At least now he knows there is another option.

    I said it before and I'll say it again. I am pleasantly surprised at how welcoming and kind everyone here has been. I am a member of other forums as I have many interests and I have all but abandoned all of them because of all the drama.It's nice to come somewhere where people know how to act like mature adults. We may not agree on everything but we can have an adult debate without lowering ourselves to name calling (except for in jest). It's the reason I come here every day. I wish everyone here a Merry Christmas and a very happy New Year.
