Tam got a reaction from cany in Itazte MVP
Can you give us some more information on this? Does it do anything when you plug it in? Does the display or any lights come on? Have you tried other charging cords to see if that's the problem? Is this a new devise or is it older? Have you dropped it? More information will be very helpful for us to try to help you.

Tam got a reaction from Shiel Catarata in E-cigarette Use
I took your survey but you really needed questions about seasonal or non-seasonal allergies to get a better representation. I have respiratory issues (coughing, sputum, wheezing, shortness of breath, etc.) because of allergies. We just found black mold in our house because of a slow leak we didn't know we had (it could've been there for a year), and once we got it mitigated, most of the worst allergy symptoms went away. When there's little to no pollen in the air, I'm totally fine. Also, I have a bad hip that makes moving around and doing physical activities next to impossible, it's not because I smoked or used e-cigarettes.
When I had smoked a pack of cigarettes a day for 35 years, I went to a smoking cessation class being given by two very experienced Respiratory Therapists. They used me as an example of what bad lungs smokers had. They had me expel a lungful of air as fast as I could into a machine. Most smokers and former smokers can only expel maybe up to 40% of the air in their lungs in ten seconds. That's what they expected anyway, but I pulled a 94% on my first try and 97% the second time, which is pretty good for someone who never smoked but not something you'd expect from a smoker. I was a bad example for how bad cigarette smoke is for lungs. At that time, I was running 2 - 3 miles per day 4 times a week, which might have contributed to my overall lung capacity.
Anyway, good luck with your survey!

EC Blends might. I tried looking to see if they do or not but couldn't find anything. You might try sending a help ticket to see for sure? I've been doing business with them since shortly after I started vaping and they've always been consistently good with product quality and customer service.

Tam got a reaction from cany in What It Was Like to Switch to E-Cigarettes
These days there are way too many choices out there. After much trial and error I landed on Aspire Triton 2 tanks, 1.8 ohm coils, and Eleaf iStick Power for the battery. If I were someone just starting out today, there are much smaller, easier set-ups available like the smaller sticks that travel better than a big clunky things like what I used to use back in the day. What works for one person may not be what works for another. Trying new things is half the fun of discovering your new vape. Good luck, and we'll be around to answer questions if we can. 😄

The last time I traveled on a plane, which was a few years ago, as long as it was in one of those 3 oz. bottles and fit into the quart-sized baggie, it went through with no problems. Anything bigger and it won't be allowed on a carry-on. Just double check with the airline you're booked on. They all have a page that tells you what's allowed and what's not.

Tam got a reaction from cany in Turn on vape
Without knowing the brand and model of your vaping device, it's hard to give you instructions, but most pen-types will work if you just suck on it. If there's no button, it's one of those. If there is a button, click it five times. There should be a light that will flash a few times. I hope that helps.

Tam reacted to hungryvaper in Looking to get a Pod
I've used the Vaporesso Zero, which is actually the "Renova" Zero (just one of Vaporesso's brands). I think I've had 3 or 4 of them by now. I don't use one anymore but I used to appreciate how small they are. My qualm with them though was that they leaked somewhat often and it was annoying enough that I switched vapes. They might have improved it but it seemed to leak pretty frequently. They'd leak both in my mouth and inside the area where the pod connects to the device. I remember regularly pulling the pod and cleaning the connection area with a paper towel to keep it nice and clean, which is frankly not something I think you should ever need to do with a vape. As if regular leaks weren't enough, I purchased one Zero that had a defective battery where the opening to slip the pod in was too tight for the pod to fit properly and it would squeeze the pod, which seemed to spawn regular e-juice leaks - it was awful.
Despite the problems I've had with the Zero, the worst pod vape I've probably used is the Juul. And the best one to date is probably the Vaporesso Xros, which is kind of surprising seeing as Vaporesso is also behind the Zero that I've come to despise lol.
If you need a good reason to choose one vape over another, you might consider what I consider: can you buy it and replacement pods at your local smoke/vape shop? With both the Xros and the Zero I know I can always find pods at at least one of the local shops here so I'm stuck searching online and then waiting for my pods to arrive in the mail.

For me, I didn't notice any difference at all, but that was some time ago. Since then I've cut down the nic amounts and now I vape 0 nic - when I vape at all. Working on putting that down as well but I'm in no hurry.

Tam reacted to hungryvaper in Tobacco free nicotine
Ah man I tried that, couldn't pull it off (the 0 nic). I kind of just went from whatever it was at the time, probably 5% straight down to zero and it just didn't do it for me. At the time I thought it was just cause of the lack of nicotine but I've started to wonder if it's the lack of menthol because I was using (and still use) a lot of iced juices and when I picked up some 0-nic it was a non-iced flavor, some kind of dragon fruit something or other from I remember. I think the throat hit from the menthol is a big part of vaping for me after smoking cigs for so many years before switching. I might have to try it again but I feel you on the "but I'm in no hurry" cause that pretty much sums up my thoughts on quitting nicotine/vaping since I switched from smoking. I feel so much better now that I don't care much if I continue to vape, just figure it'd be better if I eventually quit but no compulsion to do it anytime soon lol

Hello, and welcome to Vapor Talk! Glad to hear you've picked up vaping and put down the nasty alternative. How do you like your new pod system? Is it working well for you?

Tam reacted to Naomi24 in Vaporesso Eco Nano review
USB-C! No power button, no airflow control nothing. Just filling the pod and taking a puff. The draw is definitely an MTL draw. A comfortable kinda loose MTL, but no restricted lung hits for this device.

Tam got a reaction from Naomi24 in Vaporesso Eco Nano review
Nice review! I just have a few questions, though. What kind of connection does it take to charge? Is it a micro USB or C connection? I couldn't tell from the pictures. Also, does it just work by taking a puff, no power button? If just a puff, how hard is the draw and is there any way to adjust the airflow? Overall, it looks pretty interesting.

I haven't been doing reviews for long, so I don't have a whole lot of shiny stuff, but when there is something in there that I don't really like for some reason and don't use at all I just give it away to friends or colleagues

Tam got a reaction from cany in Posting reviews
I really need to go through all my "shiny stuff" and get rid of what I'm not using. The problem is...where do I put it, who will want it, and is it worth anything? At this point I think if I can find someone who wants or needs it, once I get around to going through it, I'll just give the stuff away.

Sometimes it takes a little while for everything to catch up to your post count. Glad it works for you now.
