Chris......I'm with you about the "Sweet Dawn". Would you like me to send you a bottle???

i kinda got a good chuckle at the package being intimidating enough to make you reach for an analog i know there are still times when i wish this were as simple as just grabbing a lighter and igniting it, there is a learning curve and it will take a while to get all this down, im still stuck in the curve myself just roll with it, it will get better

it really isn't a good idea to use a cart on a Lr atty, doesn't keep it wet enough and most places have a DOA only warranty on Lr attys.i would get a 510/901 drip tip from maybe good prophets ... best drip tip prices and has standard shipping.. sorry cant post links yet...but keep those as wet as possible like the poster above me said 3 drops on a fresh atty for 5 to 8 puffs .... when the flavor or vapor production changes add two drops.. vape ...repeat the regular attys as you can already tell burn a bit cooler, these are not quite as sensitive to a dry burn as a Lr but can still be popped from excessive heat so ......rule of thumb when the flavor or vapor production changes...drip your atty... or top off your cart...

Just give a brick wall answer. Or don't elaborate Q. What is that? A. Your mom!! Q. What are you smokeing? A. koolaid. Q does it really help? A. I'm un-helpable. Ok I'm just screwing around here but you get the idea. I'm gonna add the your mom one to my arsonal. Heheheeh cards with " its an ecig, goto vaportalk.com for more info" is probably easyer.

I love my ego too and I often get asked what I've got. If I'm not in a talking mood I just say it's my crack pipe and walk away! I get lots of great reactions to that, ha ha. Another way around this is to print out cards explaining e-cigs and when someone askes just hand them a card. Whatever you do, don't get rid of your eGo if it's what you like best.

That is unusual. I can assure they are Joye Tech. Remember we where the first ones to start calling out other suppliers on fakes. (We got a lot of flack for it too) I'd never risk our reputation to save a couple of bucks. I'd rather be out of stock for 2 weeks than carry low quality product.

The center pole is the tiny circular metal piece located inside the portion of the battery that holds the atomizer. (where all the liquid usually piles up) It normally has a white/tan rubber ring underneath it. The outside of the atomizer holder is negative. That tiny little center pole is the positive portion. The rubber ring is there to stop any shorts. Every so often that center pole drops to low. It's caused from the screwing the atomizers on too tight. You can take a very small pair of pliers or ever better a pair of tweezers and pull up on it.

Also if your using anything other than 3.7v there is a higher chance the atomizer will pop. Getting a month + on high voltage is just lucky Atomizers where only designed to last a few weeks. The fact that Joye techs usually last longer is primarily because they are better made.

Oops sorry, some times I forget I am not really a newbie any more I guess. I learned all about through a great video, I am on the iPad so this link (below) is a mobile link but it should work - but if it does not go to you tube and search phee303 - he has a great set of videos and they helped me a ton.

Hopefully this link works for you.

Edit - it didnt work so I got the laptop out to give the correct link - check out some of his novice videos, they are really helpful.

I am not sure if this is new info or not but after watching the movie "The Insider" I searched on YouTube for video's of the main character Jeffrey Wigand.

Definitely an eye opener

I agree -- PV's are a fantastic invention for those of us who have tried numerous times to quit smoking in the past, but find ourselves unable to kick the nicotine addiction, and/or those of us who enjoy smoking and all of the social implications of smoking. (How many great conversations have you found yourself a part of outside at a party, with all of the smokers standing around chatting while puffing away?)

I've only been vaping for 10 days now, but have taken the opportunity to explain what PV's are to anyone that shows interest. Fortunately, I've only encountered a negative attitude with that one old grouch in Starbucks -- the rest of the people that have interacted with me about it have been interested either for themselves or someone they're close to.

The more people I can tell about these things, the better.

I for one live in small town America (ex-hippie free!) so no one would complain if I were in the local diner and puffed away as long as I wasn't sending plumes of vapor across a table of Mennonites! However, when my pv arrives I intend to take and use it everywhere just so folks will ask about it. This truly is the greatest thing since sliced bread and canned beer!

i personally like the trustfire flame labels. they aren't expensive either
the only other kind i would say to go with is maybe the aw imr 14500
reo design is pretty slick

Thanks!! Easiest 15 days without analogs ever! I don't see myself ever smoking again as long as I'm able to vape. It really does make it so easy. When I bought my kit, I bought one for a friend also. He vaped 2 days and went back to analogs. I bought his kit back for $30. I just dont get it. E-cigs are greatest thing since sliced bread! As for the Provari, I am one of those that have to have the newest and greatest as long as I can justify the cost. I am still really happy with my eGo and I think I would feel more comfortable using that then some larger device while in public but I spend alot of time either in my work truck or at home where look doesn't matter.

Next time she walks by you after a smoke break you should go "whew....you smell like an ashtray" while making that something stinks face....lol. She wants to open the door about the smell of your habit, then she's fair game!!

8 months I've been vaping at work. Today at work I'm doing it in the break room. Instead of someone approaching me and asking me what it is they run to HR. I explain what it is. I'm told I can't do in the buidling now. Bite me! I'm doing it and discretely. Nobody will be the wiser.

You can only use the 18490 or 18650 ( with extension cap)

I suppose the best compliant I could ever have is being out of stock

Believe me I'm loosing hair by the day. I cant even describe to you how frustrated we are. We had one liquid shipment due in around the 16th, it's been sitting in customs ever since. So now we have to wait for another production run (which is happening as we speak) Chinese New Year tends to put a damper on things

We do have hardware that is due to arrive Tuesday/Wednesday. That shipment contains, Black eGos, atomizers, silver eGos, Revolution kits, KR808 atomizers filled and empty. We've even got Joye Sticks on the way.

I do apologize and I know it's frustrating but I'm working night and day on China's you know what ensuring our shipments are hurried along as fast as possible

When I had to go to the hospital with the wife to visit a family member, I went outside to vape after a few hours. I went about 100-150 ft away from the entrance with the wife in tow and we started chain vaping. some guy noticed and since it is a "smoke free" parking lot (wtf),he decided to walk up and complain. after he started to shout " you do know you can't smoke out here", I replied "you know this isn't a cigarette". He looked at us sideways, and the wife told him about e-cigs, and what they do. Luckily she was there, because I wasn't in the mood to try to explain on that occasion.

aside from not hacking out a lung every morning I have noticed a few changes in the past few weeks...
my teeth are getting whiter, or is it that my gums are looking so much better? or could it be that the teeth now look so white in contrast to my no longer coated tongue?

all i can say is OMG my mouth just looks so much better! and cleaner! and totally sexy!

BTW its been over 5 weeks with no analog... i just could not figure out how to get that tracker thingy on my profile lol

I had a somewhat funny experience trying to vape in a diner this one time. I pulled out my riva and took a puff, and I saw some old guy glaring at me. Then like a minute later, he was up at the cash register bitching to the girl there about it. He wasn't loud or anything, but I was watching him and I saw the way he pointed at me and the girl looked at my table and everything. I think I heard him say something about smoking. Anyway, it was funny because by the time she looked over, there was no smoke, and nobody smelled anything, so she just ignored his complaint. When she looked at our table, she had a look of confusion on her face because there was clearly no smoke. She probably thought the old guy was nuts, and I bet he was pissed.

I tried for the first time the other day while walking into the Liquor store I vaped just about the whole time I was in there and even at the counter just to really see if someone was going to say anything and to my surprise nothing was said. Im sure I can not get away with this everywhere but it was very cool to do this in an establishment and not have anything said to me.

I hate people like that. Luckily for me I have one grump a** "I'm not in the mood" looking face. All the time. When I do vape indoors (which I try not to) I can tell they want to say something but the look on my face is enough for them to put their head back down where it belongs.

Well said. +1

Yeah, that's a big thing for me, too... I don't appreciate being told what I can or cannot do, especially by someone that isn't in a position of authority to do so. It's even worse when someone is complaining behind a false premise.

On one hand, it's a teaching opportunity -- I feel like as a vaper, I should be spreading the word about such a wonderful thing, and maybe I can convert other smokers to a healthier alternative. On the other hand, I don't want to come across as "that guy" who seems as if he's just trying to be intentionally confrontational, and giving vapers a bad name, either. So, I'm torn as to what approach to take.

Hell, one of the reasons I switched to vaping is the fact that you can vape in many places that you can't smoke. It's not my intention to give up on one of the reasons I switched, just to keep from ruffling the feathers of the uneducated that want to cause problems.
