My whole incentive for vaping was to beat my addiction to nicotine,not just find another way .I tried all the "Pharma" ways and none worked ,vaping has worked.I also was worried there would be a ban or some other intervention that would limit my ability to use this tool as I see fit to achieve my goals on my schedule and I wanted to be able to survive without it or going back to analogs.So I made an effort to reduce my nic as fast as possible.There has been some scares in the past and I was amused at all the folks hoarding atties and eliquid.They were like the survivalists with cellars fully stocked and weapons to protect the goods from marauders.I do get a little low nic now and then as no nic is hard to find from Dekang,but I have to check the label as I cannot tell the diff.

For switching/trying flavors carto's are not the way to go,a Joye 306 or 510 atty and dripping is best for that.As for liquids you just have to buy small amounts and try them all until you find what strikes you.I started using frooty flavors because the tobacco flavors were not so good.But as time went on I am using mostly tobacco and the frooty ones are too sweet.A mega dual coil may not be very good for delivering the flavor I think those are for huge amounts of vapor having more surface area to vaporise liquid.I find I get the best representation of my Dekang liquids with a Boge standard resistance carto @ 3.7 volts.You will find a lot of people who disagree but most of us seem to be using those or Boge low resistance carto's.I tried 5 or 6 domestic liquids and did not find any that suited me but there are people here who use them extensivly.Vaping is more of a lifestyle than smoking was ,you have to live it.

Not if you get some good flavor.

All eciggs have a learning curve,you started out with a little more complicated outfit than most of us .After two years I still have not tried a tank so I cannot say for sure what is going on.I would be confident in saying it is just e-liquid leaking and not oil.It will not harm you to ingest a bit but you will soon figure out how to avoid it as it can be a bit nasty.You should be able to find some how to videos on YouTube just type in EgoC and see what comes up.A lot of people are more than happy to share thier hard learned lessons that way.

If You Don't Like This...well...you Dumb!

I like the strobe effect ,those drummers rock. -
I try to stay at low or no nic just in case vaping gets outlawed or cost prohibitive.I like my Dekang liquids for the flavor and I do not 'fein for the nic if I get too busy or otherwise unable to vape.Vaping is the only substitution method that ever allowed me to quit smoking.Out of curiosity I bought a pack of Camels not long ago,the first one wasn't bad.The second one was nasty and I gave them away and have no desire anymore.I have been vaping over two years now .

OIC O¿O ,so easy a caveman can do it.

I just tried to copy and paste into the reply box like I used to do.Has it changed?

I should think someone would be able to harness the heat from a light like that to actually make the vapor and the element would never carbon up.just sayin.

901 atties are pretty good but you have to blow them out every so often to prevent the leaks.Awesome Vapor has them as well and VaporKings.I cannot paste here anymore or I would put links in.

Oh my goodness,I hope thast is not as boring as the Idiot shows..

It would be very hard to be a supplier these days.We vapers are like cattle going from one pasture to another looking for greener grass.If you order too much of anything it ties up your cash and in the case of liquids it has a shelf life ,if you order too little inventory we cattle move on to the next pasture where stuff is in stock.Hats off to our suppliers,we love you .

Actually at first I was disapointed none tasted like smoking so I used frooty flavors.Then after about a year I revisited the tobacco's and now that is all I vape.Menthol liquids were all menthol and no tobacco to me ,a few drops in some CML or USA Red would be better.

Radio Shack 271-1133 should do the trick for the regulator.

I like to keep some 30 ml bottles for mixing in and 10 ml bottles for times when I have 50 or 60 ml bottles that are too big to carry around.The only problem I have is getting the label adhesive off with whats around the house.

I cannot copy and paste in this forum anymore for some reason but if you go to Madvapes 5 volt kit page there is a link to detailed instructions which tell you what goes where.I am pretty sure 1/4 watt carbon film .

Any of the Dekang tobaco flavors from LitecigUSA or Ecigbestsave VT liquids are very good when they are in stock but a bit pricier than the Dekang.

Boxmods, Which Ones Stand Out, And Which Do You Prefer?
mcquinn replied to twelveday's topic in General Vaping Discussion
Most box mod people are about function first ,very cost effective and compact.When they break you aren't out much and it gives you an excuse to build more.I don't really think of my PV as bling so much as an end to a mean.And I get whatever carto's are in stock,even a couple of boxes of pink ones one time.The switches are the only drawback ,I found some micro switches from Radio Shack that don't put the dent in my finger.More like tactile but rated at 3 amps. -
The easist way to build a 5 volt mod is to get a kit from Madvapes,They use two batteries and a voltage regulator board to reduce the voltage to 5 volts.Boosting a single 3.7 volt cell to 5 volts is way in the advanced electronics area. http://www.madvapes....Kits_c_187.html Radio Shack has battery boxes , switches and soldering irons but not muc else of value to us.

What's Your Favorite Delivery System?
mcquinn replied to blucavvy's topic in General Vaping Discussion
I like Boge SR or LR carto's for most of the time ,but I drip with a 306 for tasting liquids and for times when I don't want to comit a carto to a flavor.And 3. 7 volts suits me fine. -
Disposable Battery? Cheapest Options.

They have you walking way sooner than you would expect and it is not that bad .The Physical terrorists Therapists are awesome and they are not trying to kill you .It just seems that way. -

Is Anyone Looking For A Cheap Passthrough Kit?
mcquinn replied to willmon22's topic in General Vaping Discussion
I agree with Chris,with my 14500 batteries I seldom ever bother with the wires unless I am trying to get a few more days from a carboned up atty @ 5 volts.A pt might be good for a noobie who doesn't have too much of everthing yet but I suspect most of us could outfit an army . -
Can You Use A Cellphone Battery To Power An Atomizer?
