Just a thought on the whole FDA possibility thing

I know, right. So many deaths & diseases could have been avoided. But instead, countries BAN the stuff that saves lives. What in the world is wrong with our today's world? Too many flu shots to go along with all the propaganda methinks. -
Right on! I've yet to experiment, I'm so in a rut.

Way to go girl!! Here's a happy face for ya. . Taken at my place not too long ago. I don't know why it wants to post upside down, except maybe to hug ya with a rainbow smile. !

They're worth every penny, but good luck finding one. Those who lucked out in getting one, don't part with them. (Minus a Flipper here or there, which is rare, cuz when anybody's caught flipping one, they are banned from all future lists, & the best, of course, is yet to be).

Yes, they are limited. He's also made a nice RDA called the Gota, & is in the process of making a surprise one. I don't know if he will go unlimited, he is not a manufacturer, just a super creative, talented, OCD about craftsmanship, backyard hobbyist. If I had riches, I'd set him up with a shop & not bat an eye. That's a good buy on those tanks!

Better yet, how about a video by Stalker, a thorough reviewer. http://youtu.be/BsLyP-zCioU

They are 50/50. Here's an interview on them. http://content.spinfuel.com/vapor-craze-talks-spinfuel/ The atty is the Nahual 16mm RBA by urquedez here in the states. The drip tip is Teflon from 310 vapers http://www.310vapers.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=Teflon#page=1 The atty is different from most, unique chamber, as well as no negative post. The negative post is incorporated into the center positive post. The super reduced chamber produces fantastic flavor. I also have the 16" top cap for the Nemesis and Nahual to look more streamlined together, but I haven't taken the time to set it up with it yet. I like it as is on the normal size cap.

Here's some optimistic news. Mr. Godshall warns to not let our guard down though, & stay busy writing our Congressmen & Senators. http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/legislation-news/486046-herzog-optimistic-after-attending-food-drug-law-institute-tobacco-regulation-conference.html Oh, and here's good news about nicotine addiction, http://www.ecigarette-politics.com/nicotine-clinical-trials-why-aren-t-there-any.html -
There isn't a best one out there. What's best for me and my Flavors & preferred resistance might not be great for & yours. With that said, depending on your delivery system, the Dna20's look promising, but too young to tell if they will hold up. I still say the Provari is the unbeatable one in craftsmanship, safety, materials, menu, & customer service. Keep an eye peeled on PBusardo, igetcha69, Todd Reviews, Mike the Hill Giant, AG (almighty God, PetListServ) at YouTube. The Provari really excels in every department.

I received Flavors from Vapor Craze that are crazy good. I won them on Mike the Hill Giant show, & they sent me like 120 mls to try. I love them all, love the labels, & highly recommend giving them a try. When/if I pull myself away from my obsession with vapolitics, I'll do a write up on them. http://www.vaporcraze.net

Oh yes, straight from Greece. I wish the camera did it justice, it's difficult to catch the beautiful brushed/satin finish.

Actually, from what I understand, it's not a tobacco product either... yet. The "deeming" still has to be approved by congress. The FDA submitted the deeming regulations to congress on October 1st, (listed under of International Financial Importance). I'm sure congress is rushing it through as fast as they can... What I worry about is online sales and morbid taxing. One of the states, Minnesota?, already charges 95% tax on all eCig purchases. Many other states have tested the water... Oregon comes to mind. Italy is charging 58% (now or soon will be). As you can see, it's all about the money. The same ANTZ are pushing for sin taxes on sugar, fat, obesity, etc. Oreos are more addicting than cocain, yaddayadda. Demonizing is increasing. (It's ok to bully & laugh at fat people). Check out changelabsolutions and their "better world" plans. Sounds like Hitler. They advise towns how to ban eCigs, demonize sugar, demonize fast food, etc.. And if you dig deep enough, you'll see who owns that company, what else they own and sale, (diet pills, smoking cessation pills), the ANTZ they give funding to, ... And they're not the only company pulling stunts. And it goes deeper than this, and way back to the 50's, with WHO, and more. There's even a brainwashing summary of letters posted by an informer... Oops, off topic a bit. I get to ranting and can't stop. I am FIGHTING mad. Anyway, today, Bill Godshall posted something of interest. (As usual). The NRT main guy, West, is now saying that eCigs just might be the answer to stopping smoking after all. I hope he's not too late with his huge epiphany. -
I don't know if this was posted yet or not, so I'll jump in blindly. When you take a puff, let it sit in your mouth for a second, let a little escape, now inhale/exhale. That's the only way I can drag without coughing. Sometimes I don't even need to inhale at all anymore... It depends upon the vapor produced.

Did anyone catch the e-cig story on NPR the other day?
Uma replied to Sweatervest13's topic in General Vape News
The main ANTZ don't believe in transition periods for eCigs, like they do for their sponsered big Pharma products. T -
Here's a great micro coil tutorial by Rip that might be of interest.

Dr. Farsalinos has more than one study. Dr. Michael Siegel, Dr. Farsalinos, and others have Debunked most of the negative studies. You need those too. ( France study found environmental traces, not ecig traces. That study was not done in pristine lab conditions. Interesting to note though, is the real pristine lab studies actually prove that eCigs are safer than some environmental air, but of course, because it wasn't a test for that it has to be dismissed) There are other studies missing too, such as nicotine, outside of a conventional cigarette is not highly addictive, in fact, it's about the same as caffeine. Let me take some time to gather the links I've been wanting an organized list like this, thank you!, Cool, I see the debunked in other places on the site. Good deal.

Hey y'all! I've been busy making political noises, and not had much free time (obsessed mind) to stop by often. But I did get a chance to pick up my new special edition Nemesis (vapepit) and just have to show it off. I didn't buff the lint off, to ready for picture taking, but even so she's a beaut. I even exclaimed " Foly Huck!" at first sight. Pics don't do justice, but gives an idea.

You're welcome, my pleasure. Haha, yeh, the "like" cap always bums me out too. It's got to go!

Your wraps sound fine. To test out any ohm/volt theory, you can put your set up on a Vv device, journal the length each volt increment allowed you to go between buildup. Overall, I'd say your setup sounds fine. The darker the eliquids, the richer the flavor (usually). The richer Flavors tend to gunk up the coils faster. Check out the BACKWOODSBREW website. They have a wonderful grapical setup showing the color ranges of each flavor. This helps us to make an informed purchasing choice. Newbies, without proper backup supply of atomizers or know how, are advised to stick to the lighter transparent Flavors. Once they are confident with cleaning, replacing attys, the sky is the limit. Having RBA, RDA, is freeing as well. Personally, most of my favorite Flavors are dark and rich, like the caramel cappuccino, etc. I use an RBA and never sweat the gunk buildup like I did with Joye 510 attys. It can be cost prohibitive, replacing new attys every few hours or days, just because we enjoy the richer Flavors. I really like how BWB shoes the chart. A lot of transparent Flavors are just as rich tasting, without the gunk buildup. Quite a few, actually.
-
I still prefer the RBA for my personal style. If and when the flavor mutes, I just direct drip right on the wick, freshens it up nicely. Otherwise it's good to go all day without hassle. So far, I've not had a leaker, the liquid stays put, unless tipped upside down. (Except the zenesis, it pours out when upside down for some reason, whereas the others just drip a bit). The RDA (all the ones in my collection to date) pours out when tipped upside down too. For me, the RBA suits my bumpy road lifestyle the best.

Message from Dr. Farsalinos "I would like to thank all vapers (more than 4500) who have participated to the survey evaluating the importance of flavors in e-cigarette use. We have closed the survey today, and we are certain that very important imformation will be derived from the analysis of the questionnaire. Thank you." http://www.ecigarette-research.com/web/index.php/using-joomla/extensions/components/content-component/article-categories/134-flavors

Here is an old video, by Dr. Baron, that talks about vaping in front of your kids. Part #1 Part #2 Father Jack on morals and addiction Father Jack has quite a few videos about vaping and ethics and addiction, be sure to check out his channel.
