  1. No worries !! I have become a chain vaper. I never have to wait to go have a smoke or satisfy my nic/smoking needs. vaping really has made things so much less complicated.

    When I figure out the amount of liquid I use daily (give or take), it actually all comes out about even mg for mg.

    It seems like I am vaping more than I smoked but same thing--draw for draw its about even. I just no longer run out to have a smoke or 2 every hour or 2. The draws are just spaced out more evenly throughout the day.

    I think I'm a chain vaper too. I was a pretty good chain smoker back in the day before I quit the first time.

    I think I draw less though. I wanted to ask.. could we become addicted to the PG? :o

  2. You can refill cartos with your own liquids. My link, this is a video on filling a carto. Not sure if its the same type you are using.

    Looks pretty much looks like the one I use except it's

    Green because menthol. Thanks so much for the video.

  3. The brand I use is called Premium. It has a nice minty taste like a minty

    piece of gum. I happen to like it. I did a lot of research too. Mine also looks like an analog only slightly bigger.

    I get a lot of great vapor too. Just my 2¢ worth.

    tha

    I think I'm the only one who doesn't use a VT cig.

  4. From a message thread, under the members Avatar (pic), there is an icon that looks like an envelope. If you click that a box will appear to send a message. From a members profile, on the left and under the pic, there is the same icon. Click the icon and the message box will appear.

    Also form your profile you can go to your messenger area and in the right hand corner there is a box to create new message. You then enter the members name in the send to area.

    Pretty simple. Give it a try and send me a PM. :)

    I'm using my phone at the moment and it won't let me do it. :rolleyes2:

  5. PM = Private Message

    It allows you to send a private message to anyone on the forum. Kind of like an email but contained within the forum.

    Is this done from the persons profile page?

    I really am a newbie.

  6. The brand I use is called "Premium" and it comes with the single cartridge.

    I can't mix juice or flavors. With my shaky hands I'll have it all over the place like the gal in the mall did.

    I've never felt an oily "cigarette" in my life. I think I need to go back and learn

    the nomenclature so I can express myself correctly. You really are a great bunch of people!

  7. RE: The FDA is focused on stopping the terrible effects of tobacco use in our country.

    ------

    ...and Monsanto cares about family farms, and people.

    Great post, but that line on the FDA got me. I'll stop before I rant. Food inc, is a great place to start. /rant averted.

    Seriously- great posts though.

    That's why there will be no cure for AIDS. There's no money in it.

  8. I didn't read thru even the entire first post in this thread, simply because I had to stop and look in shock and awe at one particular comment. You said you think that the FDA cares about us and is in this fight for the health of the people... This is complete BS. I'm not calling you out, suggesting that you're dumb or anything at all like that. But they certainly do not care about us. If they did, there is no conceivable reason for them to do what they've been doing(seizing shipments, spreading all kinds of lies and BS about e-cigs being dangerous or potentially dangerous). We KNOW for a fact that cigarettes are TERRIBLE for us, yet the FDA allows them to be sold. Meanwhile, here comes a much safer alternative, and what do they do? They say that because they haven't been proven completely safe(wtf is 100% safe anyway?), that they should be pulled from the market until they can be proven completely safe, despite the fact that cigarettes, in contrast, have been proven 100% NOT safe, yet they're allowed to be there. This is all about money and complaints from either the tobacco industry, the pharmaceutical industry, doctors who get kickbacks, or a combination of all three.

    These are NOT marketed to kids. These are NOT nicotine-cessation devices. Despite the common belief that apparently adults don't like or deserve candy, THEY DO. These are also not drug delivery devices. What about 0 nic juice? And even WITH nicotine in the juice, if this is a drug delivery device, then so are cigarettes. So is a coffee mug. So is an aluminum can. We can be ridiculous about this and start calling everything that aids you in the ingestion, inhalation, or absorption of ANYTHING a drug delivery device, or we can just end the madness and give smokers a much healthier alternative to smoking that still allows them to get the nicotine they crave. It also allows them the option to actually quit because it addresses the hand-to-mouth action, it addresses the "smoke" aspect, and it provides lower levels of nicotine and even 0 nicotine juices. There are cigarettes with lower nicotine(or at least that's what I THINK "lights," which we can't call them anymore are), but there aren't any with ZERO nicotine. And now thanks to new legislature, if one were to try smoking lower nicotine cigarettes, it's much more confusing because we can't call them lights or mediums or whatever anymore. Gums, patches, and pills have a horrible success rate. Only the e-cigarette has a success rate higher than 20%(which is probably being incredibly generous to other methods of quitting), and it wasn't even intended as an aid for quitting. That's saying something. That's powerful. THAT is why all this crap is going on, because it is so great. The FDA sees this. The FDA knows this. Doctors know this. The pharmaceutical industry knows this, and so does big tobacco. The government wants e-cigs gone because they're losing tax money. The Pharmaceutical industry wants e-cigs gone because they're competition to the gums, patches, and pills that don't work. Big tobacco wants e-cigs gone because they're competition to cigarettes, and (some)doctors want e-cigs gone because it prevents them from getting as many dr. visits, prescribing as many drugs, and in turn, getting as many kickbacks. Basically, for every person that wants e-cigs gone, they have a financial interest in their removal from the market. It's THAT simple.

    And every single thing I ever hear about the FDA points to the fact that they absolutely ARE NOT for our benefit. They don't want us to be healthy. Keeping us unhealthy is what keeps their wallets full. Same goes for doctors and pharmaceutical and insurance companies.

    That's why there will never be a cure for AIDS. There's no money in it.

  9. I use 0mg cartridges and feel no desire to go back to analogs.

    But that's me. I can't speak for anyone else. By the time I started

    smoking AGAIN I didn't smoke near as much before (3 packs a day). When my daughter started

    smoking I would "share" with her till started back on my own, which was

    probably 2 packs a month. I think the antidepressants help with that. Bot im glad I'm

    smoke free.

  10. Hello!

    I’ve tried BLU and found that it irritated my throat, the amount of vapor was not consistent, and some of the liquid would leak on to the mouthpiece when I carried it my purse.

    I would appreciate recommendations for an ecig that mimics a real cigarette. – is this a ridiculous expectation? I would like consistent vapor and something that sort of tastes like a cigarette. (If only Philip Morris would develop one of these things!)

    Your opinions are most appreciated.

    Boy am I glad I didn't go with Blu. I have heard many

    Negative things about them and not just here. I also

    heard they're having problems with the company, Johnson Creek,

    Who makes their flavors.
