  1. Love the design. Very nice. Like the double o-ring base and drip tip. I wish she would have shown it with a 510 tip too but it's cool. $35 seems like a steal. Nice touch with the pairing, lol.
  2. Ding dong......vape Mail Got an order from Fadora Vapor. Comp, I went right for the coffee. Excellent, my friend. I'll do a full review later. Right now I'm too busy sucking it down, lol.
  3. @ earthling - those are the exact reasons I don't go to other shops. It's annoying to say the least.
  4. Good story... Clouds are part of the culture, I guess. My favorite B&M by me can get cloudy but not alk the time - maybe half the time I go in there there is a small group at the bar clouding it up. Ive wondered why they don't do fans but the truth is most dont think the clouds are a problem, lol. Truth is, cloudy or not, they greet me warmly, remember my name and what juice I bought, and their attention goes right to servicing me. They are very good about it. I never feel put off or "not in the club". They respect all vapers. I find that is a rarity, though. But it is why I never go to another shop.
  5. Ah. Ok. That doesn't mean you vape 100% vg in it only....or does it?
  6. 100% pg on the Cisco, Tam? What do you know that I don't know? Im just curious without derailing the thread too badly.
  7. Sounds like you are a candidate for a high performance mod if you find the nautilus not satisfying. Vaping is definitely not smoking and I don't think will ever match quality tobacco flavor or hookah. But that doesn't mean you can't substitute it with a high performance flogger and get used to the differences while weaning yourself off smoke. You can learn to do your own builds and wicking. It's not that difficult but does require a little research and knowledge. You will probably find it satisfying and a good substitute for smoking but an important aspect to vaping is becoming satisfied with vapor over smoke. That is the difficult jump from smoking/hookah to vaping, but it can be done. And, it's worth it.
  8. Rinsing and soaking in vodka is probably your best bet. I wouldn't dry burn the nautilus coil but that's just my opinion. Dry burning without re wicking is not a great result and the nautilus is not easy to re wick. But even rinsing will not get rid of the old build up on the coil. It will remove most of the old flavor. Rinsing and thoroughly drying should be an improvement but I wouldn't expect "like new" quality after that. For me, there nautilus is awesome with a fresh coil, but over time the flavor diminishes even though it still puts out good vapor and doesn't taste burnt. Mostly true with any coil, really.
  9. Hmmmm.........well, though not branded doesn't automatically disqualify it, I would have to say it's highly suspect. I mean if it's not branded they must be making it in the "back room" or worse, repackaging it. I don't know, I wouldn't trust it if it were me. Is this a legitimate "vape only" shop? Or is it vape supplies in an otherwise general store or even smoke shop? You would do well to do some research on sources of juices in your area. What area of the UK are you in?
  10. Nicotine DEFINITELY affects flavor. When you are starting out vaping you are typically tasting 0 nic or 6 nic juices at the shops. Anything over 12 will taste WAY different than that. Get ready for the hall of "finding your juice". My advice is be patient and willing to vape not so good flavors at first. You will find some that are passable. Keep in mind vaping is very different from smoking so there is some adjustment going on too. Be patient with it. Your tastes will be changing over the next couple of months. It will get better. Don't let it discourage you. Persist and ride it out. Tell me the maker of the juice. Not alk juices are alike. Some are better than others. Ask for recommends in juice forum. In my opinion you haven't been vaping long enough to experience vaper's tongue (losing flavor from vaping same flavor over time). However, the advice to up you water intake is very valid. Hope that helps
  11. Speaking of new products - This trend (seemes to me) with newer tanks getting more complex, new coils that are harder to rebuild. It has me wondering if the simpler devices are going the way of the dinosaur, lol. I love the technology, I really do even though I don't partake in it very much. For me it's all about practicality. I just meed to stay off cigs. I have achieved that pretty solidly. My wish is that the simpler technology does not go the way of the Chevy Chevelle, lol. Remember when you'd have a car problem and you could just back her in the drive and pop the hood and the problem was maybe 1 of 3 things? Haha. Guess I'm dreaming. Long live the mini pro tank!!
  12. Patricia. The sub tank mini will accept a premade coil that is made with organic cotton (OCC - Organic Cotton Coil). It also has a replacement rebuildable coil that you can make your own coils so you can use it either way, with premade coils or rebuild them if you desire. I can't speak for their performance as I have not tried them. Take a look at the very first post for a description and picture. Since you probably won't be rebuilding coils below 1ohm it should work fine on your Provari.
  13. I hear you! All of us had different levels of addiction and a host of reactions to quitting. The good news is it gets better and when you finally get the monkey off your back it is a great feeling
  14. Haha. Good point. And the truth is they will be more likely to use "consumer friendly" products (read cigalikes) as those types of products will be assumed to be the mainstream. Plus, they won't be dealing in customizing the products , including juices, for the test subjects with the purpose of getting them off cigs. Which brings in the question, will they be coaching or councelling the test subjects in any way as part of the study. I mean, part of the success is having an amazing support group like this forum and it's members. We deal with it everyday as people get dialed in on their setups. Without that support it would be a much rougher go of it.
  15. Most definitely could be part of withdrawls. Up your nic. Increase multi vitamins. Get your sleep. Maybe vape 24 during day and cut back at night if you have sleep problems. B vitamins, B complex and calcium magnesium are key to restful sleep. Hope that helps
  16. It's interesting. I know a lot of people who struggled between vaping and smoking when they started out vaping. Only logical. But I don't know anybody who smokes AND vapes as a regular routine. Typically, if a smoker is vaping it's because they want off ciggys. Otherwise, they just smoke. I know one vaper personally who took a year to get off cigs. It wasn't until he had the right set up for him that got him off cigs and he's now cig free for 6 months or so. But he either vaped and then back slid into smoking on and off over that time. He never really vaped and smoked regularly. He always had the goal to quit. Technically he "used both products" but it would unfair to categorize him as someone who vaped and smoked at the same time, the implication being that it wasn't successful as a smoking cessation product when in fact ultimately it was. It will be interesting to see how that data can be manipulated. The length of time that a person remains in the program would be a significant aspect of the study. Some take longer than others. The "inconclusive" result of the study becomes more suspect if these factors are not considered. It would be an interesting poll to take - How long did it take the individual to get completely off cigs?. Or another might be - have you ever used vaping to supplement your smoking?
  17. ABCDEFG....hmmm, not familiar with that acronym.
  18. @ earthling - lol, I see you read a lot of these reports. I haven't read it yet. Is it funded already? The million dollar question- who's funding it?
