Do you still need the email addresses or the letter, I would be happy to post? I appreciate your effort and what you are going through. I am from NY and am sure I speak for all of us when I say Thank You!

Wow! Love your letter. It would be a nice alternative letter for others to send should you publicly give permission for others to do so. Thank You for sharing it.

Thank you Chris! It is really nice to see other people helping. The first time NY started the process to ban E-Cigs, I was stunned and had no idea it was even about to be banned here in NY. It had just passed the NYS Assembly Unanimously! What is even more shocking was the Video clip of what transpired during that vote. http://www.youtube.c...h?v=Yc2iMn7EZ5Q It showed the complete ignorance of those representatives of the people who voted with a complete disregard for all the facts we now know were sent to them by many professionals and groups. It showed that they did not do any homework or read anything before voting on this matter, just like the Obama Health Care Bill. They did not know what these devices were and most had not even seen one. They also changed the section that was prohibiting these devices from only minors to also now include adults. How arrogant! They took the word of a bias Committee Member, Mathew Titone who helped to sponsor this campaign and Bill and claims as a smoker, "he has tried them before". He goes on to say "what is truly shocking" are claims he makes based on his 11 year old nephews story of being able to go out and buy one with no questions asked. Such evidence is hearsay with no actual fact, evidence or an adult witness, which Mr. Titone who is an attorney obviously knows is wrong to do. During this same claim he calls it "a delivery system of nicotine and other chemicals, and marketed as a stop smoking device that delivers an unknown quantity of carcinogenetic chemicals into a person's system". This statement alone shows he has NOT done the research or homework and not based these statements on any real facts. For an attorney who is supposed to be trained to make representations based on facts and evidence, this is truly shocking. He no longer is defending the life of one person but the entire state of NY. The fact that these people do nothing to prepare and educate themselves before voting on bills that effect our daily lives, and do it with such arrogance should have people outraged in every facet of oppression that is continuing right now, including our very freedom according to a constitution they oppose, defying the very laws they were elected to uphold. These people pay themselves outrageous paychecks to do very little but attempt to control us to THEIR own benefit not ours. I have NOT looked up what recently just occurred, but last research I did after writing, emailing, faxing and phoning all the representatives from NY's last attempt to ban e-cigs was that it still had to pass the NYS Assembly "Health Committee" and then be signed by the Gov. to complete the process of banning. In other wards this is "last chance to fight NOW"! If it passes here in NY other States will follow. Does anyone know exactly when the NYS Health Committee is scheduled to vote on this matter?

Thanks FTJ, Yes I was on the single page for TW. Now with your link to multipack, the price is right! I wanted some of those thick gold band attys like TW has. I had 2 that came with my kit, and they were great. The links I had put on forum yesterday all of a sudden are back to the low prices. $5 atty, $10 Joye 510 Mega Batteries, and $1.99 multi-adapters. https://www.cleansaf...Multi-Adapters/ Go figure! LOL!

Thanks FTP, I went to TW and put 10 Atty in cart, just to see, and it would not take off the 30%.. I was not about to check just to see if they would finally take the 30% off. LOL!

Sorry Everyone, Scap that. The atomizers were $5.99 last week, the Mega Batteries were $10.00, and they do not have many adapters. They raised their prices since last week.

These are the cheapest Joye 510 Atomizers I have found online if anyone is interested. Also these Joye Mega 280mAh 510 Batteries are nice and the cheapest I have found also. Nice in between the VP-PT. They also have cheap adapters.

Wow, BigJim, I see you are truly an inspiration among men. You have some wonderful and very true things to say in your bio especially knowing God will have you end up where you are supposed to be. I am so glad I am not just standing out here all alone with some things I believe or experienced, and not afraid to say. I am believing you will end up with the longer end of the stick before you know it. God Bless you! Thank you for sharing!

Hi Kitsune, Thank you. Things are great now. How about you? Your right, I think I am going to get in trouble here for being off topic. I wish someone else would tell some of their experiences or start a new topic. I am not good on forums, never found one until now I felt so good about. People can be very mean today and I don't want to be a part of that. There are such wonderful people here, I know I was led here! I see so much real love and care here you don't normally see online. If you don't believe me, try some of the other ecig forums. I saw many people fighting, swearing and some things that turned me away I could not even speak of on some other forums when I was trying to just research maybe just certain topics or ecig products. Thank you for being part of this good forum. It really is special.

Hi there DayVape, I try to be. Marlene had such a special heart for people, and I believed our agreement in prayer matched our hearts exactly as sort of soul partners for God, in how much we both loved God and Jesus and how we both Loved and felt for others in need. It was a wonderful Prayer Warrior match! I have had prayer partners in the past, who's hearts, were NOT really in it with as much Love and maybe you could say, a special way of life one may try to live. A certain type of purity so to speak would be the only way I can describe it. Not perfect, no one is. LOL! Might sound strange, but I am careful who I pray with in agreement that they are truly sincere in prayers and hearts. You would be surprised how people may say one thing but in their hearts harbor something different. Now, I always let God pick and find anyone I pray with or to call a Prayer Warrior or Prayer Partner. Actually I pray for this first now. A friend of mine that my son and I used to work with in his ministry always said, he never advertized his church. He did not even have a listing for it in the phone book, and no doors were ever open. He used to say that God would send people to him, and somehow they would find him usually in some strange way. I learned much from him especially about God and Prayer. Sorry, short answer, yes I try to be a Prayer Warrior, now I need to pray for God to find me another to match. I truly believe that just some things really need a spiritual bond of agreement in prayer!

I just wanted to add one more thing. I hope no one here is offended if I relate this last thing. It has more to do with strange miracles and anything being possible. I was so depressed when all of this happened, and I did not even have a way to get to Court which was at least 200 miles away. I had to postpone my Court appearance for another month and ask my friend to pray with me for a way to get myself and son there. My prayer partner lives in another state at the opposite end of the country, so we would pray by phone or Skype. I normally do not pray for anything like this, but being so nervous for another month was not helping, so we prayed for a way to get to Court, and a special sign so that my son would stay calm. I asked that when we got to Court that God would give us a sign he was there with us working things out. The following month about a week before our Court date my son ran into an old friend of ours at the corner store that we had not seen in years. He asked for our phone number to try to reach me. Later he offered to drive us to Court. When we got to Court on the given day, while we were waiting nervously to be called to deal with our case, the Judge called the name of our friend who drove us there. HE FREAKED OUT. He said, "I only gave you a ride here, I did not get a ticket or in any trouble, why are they calling me by my name". It turned out there was someone already there with his exact same name, even his exact middle name. Then I remembered my prayers and how I asked for a sign I could not mistake for his presence and our answered prayers. The friend who drove us there had us laughing all the way home about this freaky miracle, as only he could appreciate something like this. He does some street preaching and often sees some strange things himself. I always saw miracles when Marlene and I would agree in prayer for just about anything or anyone. This is just one example of how anything is possible and a real trip along the way too. God Bless you all, for God has blessed me again with all of you! Thanks Brian and Dave, you are all so dear and such sweethearts, while I feel a loss of a friend, I also feel blessed by all of you!

Dave, the spending buying habits with spouse, that is probably why I would be terrified to marry again after what my X spouse put me through. LOL! Don't feel bad, even without one, I was so broke when I started to look into this ecig device on this same forum. I had lost 2 jobs, and was on this forum trying to learn what to buy on credit while I was trying to go cold turkey. I had about a week of severe struggling, when new neighbors started blasting music 24/7 and pushed me over the edge. I then decided I could NOT afford to go to the local store here in N.Y. anymore, not even for 1 more pack of analogs. The prices here are just too outrageous. So I went to the Indian Reservation. On the way back, just as I said to my son, "This will probably be the last time we go to the Indian Reservation", (I really believed because of all you good people on this forum that this electronic cigarette device was going to work), I suddenly hear a siren and flashing lights. Oh, great, like things were not bad enough! I ended up with three tickets related to my very old jalopy that I keep trying to hold together just to have some transportation and trying to keep above water. From there, I was terrified what was going to happen when I showed up in Court and did not have any money for tickets. To make matters even worse, my son who is multiply-handicapped was given a ticket. They said he did not have a seat belt on, but he did. My son cannot defend himself in a Court of Law, and not good with answering questions, especially when stressed out, and Courts are a Big One for Stress. Now I am thinking they are going to put me in jail because I cannot pay the tickets, and my poor son will not be able to care for himself. I will never forget how this journey to try to quit analogs started for me, given this story. I had ordered my Joye 510 kit, but I had not received it yet. I knew when I got my kit and my one bottle of ejuice that I could cut the "Nic" down with VG if need be. Problem was, after I did get my ecig kit, the only place I could get VG without waiting for shipping or spending more money I did not have was to go to Wal-Mart. I could not get there, because the inspection sticker on my car was expired, thus explains one of the tickets I had received. A really good Sumerian on this forum sent me some ejuice after I began to get ill from the high "Nic", or I may have given up at that point. I had a carton of analogs from the Reservation, and I still do. I could have easily gone back to analogs when I got ill. But instead, because of the help I received on this forum, I have not had a single analog since I got my Joye 510 kit and started without any analogs the following day. As for what happened about the tickets and the Court, I spend much time praying. I also wrote a letter to the Judge about my son. I did not want to have to embarrass him in front of other people in Court by revealing all handicaps in public as to why he cannot answer for himself. I prayed that somehow I would only have to pay $50, and they would not stress out my son. My prayers were answered exactly as I asked. The Judge even winked at my son, and he smiled with such relief as we left. As for the good Sumerian, who helped me from this forum, I was told to "pay it forward". I did just that finally on the 1st of this month. Besides showing this device to anyone I can, there is a girl who lives in the lower apartment from us who smokes. She finally revealed to me after I showed and let her try my ecig months ago that she too could not afford to buy one. Another single Mom struggling. I gave her everything I started with and then some once I got the VP-PT, and a few other things I long waited to get. USBpassthroughVP, I know if I can do it with what I went through, I know you too will do really well. There really is so much to learn, and the people here are so knowledgeable and helpful. I know that you are in good hands here if you need any help or any support, don't be afraid to ask any of us. I believe this is important. And the fact you are already here asking questions shows you're already on your way to being free from analogs. I almost forgot, you asked about where to put the drops. Dripping was already mentioned, but here is a video that shows how to top off your cart, instead of dripping. Also Dave is right, it is hard to buy every ejuice in every strength. You can always cut down the "Nic" strength with VG or PG. You can get VG at Wal-Mart. I would not recommend buying the highest "Nic" level of ejuice to start with. If you can afford it, it is also good to try some other flavors of ejuice. You can even mix a drop or two with whatever flavor you have picked to try to match whatever type of analog cigarette you have been used to in your cartridges. Sorry, I guess I am jumping the gun. You can buy pre-filled cartridges with ejuice, but I think most don't do this all the time because it is costly, so they may buy bottles of ejuice to either fill or top off their cartridges with. So make sure to buy yourself some extra cartridges, called "carts" if you go this route. There are some really excellent Videos on YouTube to show just about anything you may want to see how to do. Try this one about topping off your cartridge with a bottle of ejuice: http://www.youtube.c...h?v=q9PVrsCC5-0 Only difference, the Joye 510 does not have an inner cart like in this Video, but that just makes it easier. Sorry guys for the long story, Hope this will encourage others that anything is possible, and Dave brought up the buying collecting habits. I also wanted him and his spouse to know without God and this forum, I would not be here doing so well! I thank God, this forum, and also a good friend and prayer partner who prayed with me during this struggle and recently (last month) passed away very suddenly. I always saw miracles happen whenever we agreed in prayer together for all we knew and all we could of this world, my heart is so sad now to know the world lost a real angel, my friend Marlene for whom I will try to carry on her same Love, Compassion and Prayers for others as well as her Great Faith! USBpassthroughVP, you are in good hands here on this forum. I will be praying for you also!

Hey Joe, good to hear your advice and see you around. Really Good Advice too! What is with the cat, it looks pretty freaky? Where did the cute funny ones go? LOL!
