    TheFinz got a reaction from gadget in Image of Vaping   
    Lmao gadget.  That's hilarious!  And I don't run into any people with vendettas against vapers thankfully.  I posted stuff about recent studies on Facebook with no one being a hating ****** nozzle. And on the streets I either get "hey can I get a light" (which I have to let the poor analog addict know I don't have one) or I get a fellow vaper asking about my set up, what watts I vape on, flavors etc and we usually have a good conversation.  I guess I'm fortunate that I don't have a bunch of uneducated haters where I live.  Either that, or they're good with minding their own business.  It's probably a little of both.

    Thanks for posting!  I read it earlier, but as educated Vapers, are we really surprised at the findings?  I honestly wasn't.  I don't Vape in the house because my wife doesn't want it around the kids, I understand that, respect that, and agree with it from an exposure and ethical standpoint.  But considering the ingredients of what goes in our juice, by and large there's not a whole lot of "harmful substances" to begin with, especially when you compare it to the alternative.  I want to see more studies like this for sure, because once enough study has FINALLY been done, maybe people will finally see the light, that Vaping isn't anything like big tobacco, not even remotely close.  And to lump us the same category as that nonsense is imo, absolute nonsense.  Keep, on vaping guys!

    For cheap juice check out "Broke **** Juice".
    If you like fruity flavors, I've tried them all, they only have 5.
    My favorite is the only one that's not fruity, "Payday" (Adult Milkshake).
    Buy one 120ml bottle for 22.00 and get one free.
    240ml for 22 bucks.

    TheFinz reacted to Adversarious1 in TFV12 RBA-T Wicking Tutorial   
    Short answer: No, don't assume that.
    The following is purely based on my experience.  When a manufacturer uses something other than kanthal for the coils they provide in a kit, they generally specify what type of metal those coils are made of.  When it comes to the TFV12, SMOKTech mentions "Stainless Steel".  That is for the actual tank construction, not the coils.
    I haven't pulled the trigger on a TFV12 yet, so I don't know if there is something in the (most likely poorly written) user manual that specifies the coil material.  In this scenario I would err on the side of caution and make the assumption the coils are kanthal.  I could be wrong, but I have yet to see anything anywhere on the internet to prove me otherwise.
    Your best bet...use power mode with those coils, not temp control mode.  When you are 100% sure of the material, then use temp control.

    Thank you!  Yeah I found that website the same day I found VT.  I ordered Bavarian Creme and Banana Creme by TFA, Sweet Cream by Cap, Menthol by FA to start working on smoothing out some of my mixes and trying to replicate another juice I am fond of.

    That would be great, I'd definitely order some of that from time to time if you get it in.  Yeah I've noticed that trend too.  I get that a lot of people are vaping nic in that range, but it makes it hard on the folks just starting out that need a bigger Nic dose (aka 12 to 24+ range).   Hell, one guy I know started off at 48 mg, but that dude was puffing down like 3 packs of analogs a day.  Then his wife came down with heart issues, and that finally made him realize that he needed to start making smarter choices for himself.  Fortunately she recovered, he's still puffing away on his Smok GX350.  Was def excited for him when he finally made the switch.  Anyway, here I am derailing topics myself, carry on as you were.

    ROFLMAO!  That's hilarious!  And absolutely appropriate cravings considering the content!
    I will admit tho, that seeing someone blowing a cloud from a mod did increase my desire to want to take a hit.  Anything else either made me hungry or disgusted (cheapy cig-alikes), or didn't do much of anything at all for me.

    I'm taking the survey now.  Funny thing about all the pictures...none of them has created an craving, urge, desire or need to vape, but some of them have caused a craving for red vines, created an urge to use a pencil to write this response by hand and an inexplicable desire to pick my nose.

    It's research man, nothing inherently nefarious about research.   Research itself is a good thing. We can learn from it.  I took the survey, I'm sure they'll see a pattern in my responses.

    Awesome, thank you!  Yeah I figure there's a learning curve, once I find something that works, I can vape that for a while until I work some other flavors out.

    When I get down to my last 30ml I mix up a 120ml batch, It usually sits for at least a week at room temp before I use it. From past experience the Bavarian cream needs to steep, like most other creams. The orange is usually ready to vape after mixing.
    After you DIY for awhile you will know which flavors need to steep a long time, and which don't need to steep very long. I mix a Big red gum flavor 3% cinnamon and 15% bubblegum, the cinnamon can be tasted right away, but the bubblegum needs to steep for a week to really taste it.

    TheFinz reacted to Walt in E juice burning my throat   
    For me the first few vapes after not vaping for a bit always have a pretty harsh throat hit @ 6mg.  For me this was a "trigger" that I needed as part of replacing analogs.  The longer I vape, the more I find the sensation undesirable.  I have been moving more toward 3mg now for a couple of weeks.  I think that is the direction I am heading.  I don't want to limit myself to 3mg as I don't need to start craving nicotine.  It will happen naturally in time.  I'll just stop picking up the 6.

    TheFinz got a reaction from Bebop in What Are You Vaping Today?   
    I just loaded up some Namberjuice Glacier Banana today.  It was the first juice I ever bought when I purchased my original setup a year and a half ago.  Hadn't been able to find it since then, but the other day when I was washing out all my empty bottles prepping for mixing my own juice, I came across the empty bottle I originally bought back in the day.  I was like damn, I remember that being awesome, so I broke down, hopped online, found a website that was selling it and ordered a couple of 60 ml bottles.  It's every bit as delicious as I remember it! (once I found the right temp to vape it at, apparently 500 F at 40w is the winner, for me anyway).  And it kicks out some pretty nice clouds on my Smok Alien with my Eleaf Lyche tank.
