Picked myself up an eVic today. My official first VV/VW mod.

Now while I didn't technically buy these.... I traded my fatty Atty v2 for a Hercules ithaka and My rainbow hybrid elite for a Hercules ithaka. Lol I love these things and I will be buying more. My ithaka's are to me as davide minis are to bcartervol98.

For the past few days I've been doing an experiment on myself. NO NIC!!!! (insert impending doom theme music here while everybody gasps in surprise and terror) Now, since I started trying my hand at DIY a couple months ago I got in the habit of making 0mg juice to try new recipes so I do not waste precious nicotine. However, the juices I've liked, I've vaped so as not to waste precious clouds. All of a sudden, I found myself inadvertently going stretches of 6 hours or more without nic...and not missing it at all! So, I decided to go without nic for a day...then one day turned into almost a week. At this point, I am treating nic like I would caffeine. A short vaping session here and there as a pick-me-up, but nothing more as I really do not need it. This got me thinking. Is the nicotine addiction merely a leftover thought-program from being convinced by the Surgeon General throughout all these years of smoking that it (nicotine) is a "powerfully addictive substance," rather than the 4000 OTHER chemicals intentionally put into cigarettes? If not, then why are patches, gums, lozenges, and inhalers not more effective? But if it is, then why is it that vapers refuse to let go of the nic (and thereby subject themselves to FDA regulation)? Or at least dose it down, and use responsibly? All rhetoric aside, I am interested in hearing YOUR thoughts on the matter. Please discuss!!

The Smoktech Zmax is infamous for fire button issues. I have one and finally ordered a Segelei Zmax telescope which I seem to recall from a different thread is what you have. After a few months my Sigelei Zmax still performs flawlessly. It's certainly possible that dropping anything electronic will create issues though. I paid a bit more for my Sigelei than I had to but having bought it from Varitube.com I got a 90 day warranty. Most vendors offer no more than 30 days. Wherever you bought yours hopefully you can get it replaced via warranty if it's still new enough.

My own DIY cola!!! Lately, I've been treating nicotine like I do caffeine....a little 6mg-10mg here and there while primarily vaping 0mg nic.

Bought the wife a Kanger Pro Tank 2... It is nice! Need to get me one! I can't believe how smooth the drags are and how much nicer the flavors taste.

I don't really think that there is such a thing as "normal dropping" when electronics are involved. I knocked my original ego twist battery over on my desk. It didn't even hit the floor. It just fell over. It stopped working after that. It was totally my fault. I don't think that it would be fair to go to the vendor for a replacement, when you haven't properly cared for the item. That's just my option.

I got an iTaste VV VW v3 and gave my spinner to my daughter.

That's a brilliant idea, Tam. See I'm just the guinea pig Most people don't realize that the inside threads on a 510 connector IS the negative side of the battery connection Gunked up threads and connector ends on either your battery OR the charger will decrease the performance of your e-cig. If your battery connections are gummed up with old dried up juice it actually makes for poor performance, effectively changing the resistance of your atomizer/coil/clearo whatever making your coil "run hot" or you'll see a decrease in vapor etc. .......or your battery won't charge.

Agreed. I'm still working on getting more knowledge just to rebuild my own coils. Lol. Safe is a good look for me.

The 24mg is per ML so no your not double the mg You would have to add straight nic to increase the mg.
