While most of the news in here is FDA related but this is an interesting development I think. Most of us here think Green smoke is overpriced and underperformance products but this single race sponsorship seems like a pretty smart move to me. Green Smoke to Sponsor T.J. Bell in NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway First electronic cigarette company to sponsor NASCAR driver in 52nd running of NASCAR's longest race MIAMI, May 9, 2011 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- Green Smoke , one of the nation's leading electronic cigarette brands, is proud to announce that it will sponsor T.J. Bell in the 52nd running of the Coca-Cola 600 on Sunday, May 29th at Charlotte Motor Speedway. Bell, who is known to NASCAR fans in the Camping World Truck and Nationwide Series, will pilot the No. 50 Green Smoke Toyota Camry in his first attempt to qualify for NASCAR's longest race on the sport's largest stage - the Sprint Cup Series. Green Smoke's sponsorship of Bell will mark its first NASCAR endeavor, as well as the first NASCAR sponsorship by any organization within the electronic cigarette industry. "One of the world's signature televised sporting events, NASCAR's Coca-Cola 600 is the ideal global platform to showcase the partnership of Green Smoke and T.J. Bell, a talented NASCAR driver who is making the move to NASCAR's premiere division, the Sprint Cup Series," states Steven Arnold, VP of Marketing & Customer Satisfaction for Green Smoke , an industry leader in providing an authentic, alternative smoking experience. "NASCAR represents the passion and peak performance of American race car driving to a worldwide audience and T.J. Bell epitomizes the NASCAR competitive spirit at its very best," continued Arnold.

"This is a big step forward for my career and Green Smoke couldn't have picked a more perfect market to promote its product. I'm looking forward to a great future with Green Smoke and a very exciting Coca-Cola 600 debut." T.J. Bell (Timothy Peter Bell, Jr.), born August 25, 1980 in Sparks, NV, has raced in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series and NASCAR Nationwide Series. Prior to joining the stock car racing scene, he made a name for himself in the Toyota Atlantics Series.

Green Smoke will sponsor Bell's No. 50 Toyota Camry for at least three Sprint Cup events this season. About Green Smoke Green Smoke Inc. is based in Miami, FL and was founded to provide smokers with an exciting new alternative to traditional cigarettes. As a leading electronic cigarette brand, Green Smoke was amongst the first companies to deliver a simple two piece e-cigarette. Today, Green Smoke continues to pride itself on consistently delivering the highest quality products and the most authentic e-cigarette smoking experience.

The heavy smoking areas are the teahouse, internet cafe, entertainment places, hospital, market and school. With the coming of the smoking ban, the electronic cigarette becomes popular. Expecially, it doesn't contain the same tar, tobacco and chemicals, this means not only is it a healthier alternative to cigarettes for the user, it is a very welcome alternative for non smokers too. Gone are the smells, the filthy butts, the ashtrays and more. In addition, the user can now light up in public places. For all these reasons, electronic cigarettes are rapidly growing in popularity and street cred. Whenever a new product hits the scene, and really captures the attention of people, you just know there are going to be a plethora of different versions, and brands. There will be good and bad, and it can be so confusing and frustrating trying to figure out which to go with. Obviously you don't want to waste any money, time, or energy. The question now is how to choose a decent electronic cigarette, if you are looking for a decent electrionic cigarette, follow the tips: 1. Read reviews. Electronic cigarettes are still fairly new, which means some brands of e-cigs still have some kinks to work out. There are a few e-smoker forums online with e-cigarette reviews to assist you in narrowing down the e-cig brands you might be interested in purchasing. 2. Check with the dealer or manufacturer to confirm that the e-cig cartridges are refillable. Or, if you are not interested in refilling your own cartridges, find out which cartridges are available where you live, or can be easily ordered online. Keep in mind that if you choose to refill your e-cig cartridges, not only will you save money, but you can purchase smoke juice that does not contain propylene glycol. While the FDA has approved propylene glycol as safe for consumption, no long-term studies have been conducted - particularly for inhaling it with an atomizer - so you will need to decide whether or not it is worth the risk. E-cigs are already safer alternatives for smokers, but by taking this one additional step and avoiding propylene glycol, you might be able to make it even safer. 3. Avoid mall kiosks. The only advantage of buying your electronic cigarette from a mall kiosk is the ease of returning the product if it does not work. Aside from that, you can expect to pay three to four times more for an e-cig from the mall, than you would if you purchased it online. 4. Search for coupon codes. While you will already be saving money if you purchase your e-cigarette online, saving more is always better. Coupon codes are common - and are often listed in electronic cigarette forums - so it is well worth the time to search for coupon codes for brands you are considering. 5. Consider a starter kit. Most e-cig dealers and manufacturers offer an electronic starter kit. E-cig starter kits can save you money and generally include one or two e-cig batteries, an atomizer, a battery charger and cartridges. 6. Look for a warranty. As mentioned before, e-cigs are still relatively new and it is clear that manufacturers are still working to improve the product. Some dealers and manufacturers offer warranties up to a year in length, which you may want to take advantage of, since it is quite common for e-smokers to have issues with their electronic cigarettes upon purchase. 7. Purchase extra parts. Make sure you have spare atomizers and cartridges on hand at all times. You never know when your atomizer might burn out and you do not want to be without the parts you need and be forced to wait for new parts to be shipped before you can enjoy your e-cig again. Just like any other product you might buy online, you are choosing without the benefit of seeing for yourself. You have to make the best informed decision that you can, and then go ahead rder.

Low Resistance(less than 2.5 ohms) atomizers and cartomizers should not be used with 016 batteries This came off the vendor's website. I have no idea why LR atty's and cart's should not be used, but it could be the cause of your problem! This is a review from Mad Vapes: It needs a notch I like this unit quite a bit. The cone atomizer works well but when I tried to use a regular 510, it would not draw well unless I gave the atty a 1/4 turn back. All in all I would recommend this unit and with the cutting of a notch or 2 in the battery lip for air flow so that a regular 510 could be used it would be perfect. Reviewed by: Col.

I have an Ali'i (variable voltage) and I do love it, but I have some concerns about its ability to take an impact - i.e. dropping it! - and because I do travel and such that was a concern. As a result I ordered a Reo Grand and go it last week and I will admit - I love it too. I suspect that you are going to love the woodvil. His craftsmanship is top notch and the Grand vapes very nicely. I just got home from a weekend get away and only took the Grand leaving the Ali'i home. I brought my eGo but never used it once. I am sure you are going to love it. As far as a picture, well this should help, but its easier to go check it out on his site reomods.com While not the Bloodwood that egoluvr got the woodvil is on the left and the grand is on the right.

UPDATE FROM HANDTHATFEEDS242 AKA: Felt Ok....Well I want to create some ID cards for everyone. I am going to get some plastic sleeves and lanyards to put these in. I also want to create a card for each month that will have the date and any vendors that donate juices or devices for us to try. We are in the works of trying to get some vendors to donate things for the meetups. What I would need from everyone is First Name, Forum Name, and a photo or image (your avatar possibly?) to place on your card. As we get new faces I will create new cards for them as well. If anyone has suggestions for these cards it would be greatly appreciated. Anyway if you can all get that to info@whiterosevapersclub.com ASAP I would appreciate it so I dont have to do everything last minute.
