  1. Another thought.This just may be another incidence of checking the water and things may go back to normal again.Sooner or later they will make a permanent move and I suspect it will be a little more showey than what they are doing now.
  2. I have had some bad experiences with the major banks ,they really do not have souls at all .The people who use credit wisely and pay their bills ontime get treated worse than those who don't for some reason.
  3. I am sure we will all survive somehow ,we always do.I am glad I was able to use it to kick my addiction while I could do it my way.I met a lot a very nice people along the way .And had some very stimulating conversations with you all.Just hunker down and do what you gotta do my friends.
  4. Get a Visa debit card you don't pay interest on your own money.
  5. Dave for the most part vapers don't pay any tax ,some pay state sales tax .If you really like to spend large chunks of money like our goverenment you stick with the guys who are dumping trucks full of money in your coffers.These also will be in my opinion the ones the goverenment will allow to meet our vaping needs in the near future.Just my opinion,time will tell.
  6. We do not know what is in store ,but if you are going to control and tax something you have to be able to control the pipeline.The internet in theory could be policed in more detail than any other form of business but there are certain alliances in place that are going to be protected.Just my opinion.If you notice so far with all the healthcare reform even during the last Presidency nothing was done to actually lower the price of healthcare ,just to find ways to make sure someone paid.Another alliance that is mutually beneficial.
  7. They mostly all nowadays have a protective circut board in them that will just turn them off when they reach a certain state of discharge.So basicly you can vape until they quit if you like.The lithium ion batteries do not have a memory effect like nickel camium did so that will not be a problem.After a while you will get to recognize when they not putting out as well as they should .They as a rule are pretty consistant up until the cutoff but most people will tell yuo they can tell ,I suspect they just have an idea how many hours they have on one .
  8. miatafrank ,you cannot buy ciggerettes with 100X the nicotine for one thing and the amount of nicotine is pretty much consistant throughout the industry.But the biggest reason they can sell ciggerettes is the huge amount of revenue the goverenment rakes in from them.For all the theatrics the goverenment and the tobacco industry have always been a very close team with a common goal to pick our pockets and they do that very well.What we are doing is akin to what bootleggers used to do in the early days of alcohol taxes and it is really sterting to bug them .Look at all the goverenment agencies they created to regulate alcohol an collect what is due .
  9. Oh Boo,gonna be an interesting summer .Kind on neat that nicotine is a new drug though.
  10. "I'm luckier than most as I don't need nic, so I can always VG and flavor" Roger that.I have been on no nic lately myself as I sorta expect that eventually we will get hosed.
  11. I kind of always thought that instead of ordering kits you should just order components that would not constitute an "e-ciggerette" and the nic juice is the real thing that is causing them to be able to get a judge to listen to them.Perhaps the FDA/Customs is lazy and just stops anything from certain manufacturers.
  12. Last year we went through one of these spells ,I was using 801/302 low bridge only and you could never find any in stock .That is when I got my adapters to put 510's and 901's on my power gear.I figured it increased my chances of finding something on stock,and I made it through.
  13. For Democrat Authority over our lives .
  14. Ok so you guys make these cartomisers seem like the "Holy Grail" so I ordered some from ElectroNicStix with the rubber caps for easy refill.I also ordered my first Joye 510 atty as one of the two DSE 510 style I bought six months ago crapped out.I think I will study the filler material in the carto's to see what it is .I suspect it will be something similar to tea bag filter paper.
  15. The postings are starting about the FDA and Customs starting to seize small e-cigg shipments from China and I suppose other countries to individual consumers.It will not be long until full fleged histeria sets in and you will not be able to find any attomisers in stock.There will no doubt be a run on high strength nic base as well.I have a feeling this is the year when "Big Tobacco" rides in to our rescue with a method for our protecters to gather the tax revenues they need to pay for all the new and proposed programs .Get ready for a long summer of drama.
  16. I think my next mod will be over the top.I am considering one of the lithium ion cordless drivers ,there would be lots of room for the voltage regulator in that puppy.And it would fit in well with my pistola theme that I have going.
  17. We are here for you .I personally like to use denture tabs and then rinse them well with hot water from my Bunn coffee maker.I bought an ultrasonic cleaner thinking that would work but it was not any better.It did make the paint come off faster and so does alcohol.But they are pretty without paint once you get it all off.
  18. Just try "cleaning" and you will get most of them.It also seems to help to be in the topic area close to it.In this case the Noobie section has plenty.
  19. I never thought I would ,but you guys make them sound so good I ordered some from ElectroNicStix 510 style with rubber plug supposed to be easir to refill.I will let you know.
  20. Thats a bunch of crap .
  21. Next thing you guys will be building bunkers in the woods and stockpiling firearms and Koolaid.
  22. I doubt if anyone makes a box that will fit 18650's without modification.That is an odd sized battery and most of those battery boxes are pretty generic.I keep thinking I would like to have two 18650's in parallel but when I start picturing the size I quickly forget it.The pipe bomb model I built with one battery is 5 inches long without atty or cart.But it sure do last a good long time.I wouldn't have built it but 3/4 copper pipe I have lots of .
  23. Sorry ,just messin with you.But there was a peice on the news about some high school loaning out laptops with cameras and the comperter nerds were spying with them.
  24. I guess you didn't read the thread about cameras and microphones hooked to your puter?
  25. That takes the hands away from vaping .
