  1. Agreed - cutting back should be effortless, if not, no worries, stay where its comfortable. Do low and have some of the higher stuff sitting around for the tense moments or when you just want to get a shot of the "good stuff". As long as you are not smoking, you are golden!!!!!!!!! Nicotine in and of itself is not a horrible thing. I only recommend getting to zero to see if you just had a mental addiction as I had. Plus it makes the FDA bogey man less scary.
  2. Very true in regards to smoking. I've always said I couldn't believe I was lighting something on fire then purposefully breathing in the smoke.
  3. Aaaahhhh - menthol, the simulated TH as I put it. We still had issues getting to 0 missingthe TH but the LR equipment helped that out along with menthol. VY Mentha packs a wallop. Also, grain alcohol (everclear at your local liquor store in most states) as well. But I found that a pain to mix and keep from evaporating.
  4. I love JC...they do add something to all their juices that gives it a distinctive flavor. Here's their faq, assuming they are not lying, I have no issues with their juices. http://www.johnsoncreeksmokejuice.com/category/faq#ing Even their 0mg juices are caramel colored.
  5. Excellent point, we can only feel a certain degree of comfort in what we are ingesting. That's one reason I stick with VT and JC juice. Of course JC was one of the companies that got a letter to cease and desist but it looks like its because they are US based, and are not following the protocols a pharmaceutical company would follow when mixing drugs. I saw a video of their facilities and I am not concerned. They actually registered with the FDA so I wonder if they brought this on themselves. They were also cited as many others for making therapeutic claims I believe.
  6. I never got a head rush, low resistance helps with TH as does a good menthol (which is what I smoked). But if you look back, I sure was scrambling for ideas on how to get a TH, my wife wanted it more than I did, I think the rush as well. Being a weekend smoker she probably got the rush from oxygen deprivation not TH off the first cig of the week. I tried higher voltage but the ego with a low resistance carto or atty is pretty good. I did 0mg for health reasons (also have to remember to apply for non-smoker status on insurance, I think it's half the cost). In retrospect it certainly makes the FDA stuff a little less stressful to me. I'm pretty sure even if I lose all my hardware, I wouldn't need to go back to analogues. The burning urge to smoke/vape at least every hour disappeared after I went to 0mg. Now triggered only by stress and drinking, and even then sometimes the battery is not charged and its no big deal not being able to. Some peoples brains are just wired differently, what worked for me may not for someone else but I always suggest folks give it a whirl. There was zero stress for me while I did it, dropped about 2mg every week or two and lost the urge after two weeks or so at 0mg. Around 5 or 6 mg/ml is where we lost the TH and that was nasty, we kept going, wife complaining all the way. Once low resistance showed up I saw a big smile on the wife's face.
  7. I've always said its a shame we actually go out of our way to make sure people don't do stupid things. Natural selection is...elegant. What will the human race be if we intercede?
  8. Sorry for the late reply - yes. I try to pass stuff on from TW, I know folks aren't excited over them, but I hear the liquids are okay and mixing stuff good and when they have sales, they are darn good.
  9. Clearance at tw: http://www.totallywicked-eliquid.com/products/totally-wicked-eliquid/30ml-totally-wicked-e-liquid-clearance-product.html Not sure what's left
  10. I've never had an issue but its been a little while and I've never "needed" what I was buying from TW. So that sux, sorry. But learn a lesson and if you can, get stuff in the house so it doesn't matter any more if a supplier takes their time. Love the "V" .
  11. I would normally counsel you in regards to doing too much for the hubby, but having said that, I have cartomizers all over the place with all different flavors for my wife. I have a dedicated atomizer I flush with straight VG so she can try flavors. She told me once she liked a flavor from one supplier so I ordered a ton, I mean a TON. While it was in transit, at dinner, she told me "I don't like this anymore". So filling cartos I think is a good idea. FYI - I use the lazy method, highly recommended. Keep cap on the part that is on the metal threads. Remove cap from other end, remove the white mouth piece. Now stand it up and drip about 10 drops into the top, it will fill up but get sucked up pretty quickly. Drip another 6 or 7 in, wait, drip a little moe, should get about 20 in before it balks. Walk away for a while, come back, still some liquid? Pick it up and shake it down like a thermometer. Should get about 25 drops in using the lazy method. Most important part is, after a hour or so, take the bottom cap off, and over a napkin gently blow through the carto getting the juice out of the tube. DONE!
  12. So how cool is Christopher!!! Come on, say it...say it!!! ;-) There are tons of minty stuff out there, menthol, as you found out, is not mint. I am a Mentha junky, can not get enough. Someone earlier said it, I have no use for something I can't mix with Mentha. So rue (but I was a marlboro Menthol lights smoker).
  13. Yo yo yo - the 1.8s and 2.0s are pretty nice!!! How goes it DV?
  14. Three I have had success with with traditional smokers, VT traditional tobacco, VT Dulcis (not tobacco) and pretty much any of the tobacco flavors at wordupecig.
  15. Great advice - I always do that because I am just that cheap. My luck is so bad that twice I did a little (and don't use TOO little), seemed fine, filled it up and after several more puffs ... poof. Dead.
  16. Yeah everyone!!! Thanxk Lori. Cool thing is as long as the FDA doesn't go total DB, we will have many more people in the future doing the same.
  17. Ummm - no comment. I would say to relax. JC is a supplier I like so I ordered a ton from them just in case (they were one of the five). If I were you, relax, get some clothes (if you must!!). Right now these are just volleys across the bows.
  18. I tried 2 two weeks after quitting at a Jet football tailgate. I grabbed a water and kept rinsing my mouth out. Second because someone had my brand, not better. It was actually like licking an ashtray. Please don't ask how I know how that tastes.
  19. Too funny. Where is the regular alucard? How do we know you are the real one, show me your fangs!!
  20. I really think people should try cutting down on nic. I think some are surprised as I was what happens when they get to zero for a little bit. Not saying I don't like it at times, but I've gone for days without vaping and not missing it. I know if I had to I could do without it forever if I had to.
