I was in ICU for two days last Memorial Day after having symptoms of a heart attack. It ended up being severe dehydration ( I drank wayyy too much in the heat outside at the lake) causing edema but I was allowed to openly vape in my room. The cardiologist said my switch to vaping may have added not just years but decades to my life.

Love it, saw a similar thing from John Stossel on Fox and Friends. Not a huge FoxNews fan but the last few years have pushed me farther right than I have ever been politically speaking. Can someone be pro choice, pro legalization of marijuana, pro same sex marriage, a member of the ACLU and still be conservative in this country? That pretty much describes my political paradigm. It's sad one seems to have to agree with everything or you are the enemy these days.

One of my employees went out and bought an ITaste as his first e-cig lol. I think it is silly, like learning to drive in a Ferrarri, but to each their own. He was using a KPT 2 and was just laying the coil in the base, not screwing it in. He felt dumb.

And do not feel the pressure to drop in nicotine as it is relatively harmless when compared to all the other chemicals in analogs. I will be vaping a year on April 23rd and dropped from 24mg all day to 18mg all day with a tank of 24mg in my pocket "just in case". I have no plans to ever drop below this level. My wife started vaping the same day I did and is still all 24mg. If you want to drop down over time do it, if not then don't. What is right for one is not necessarily right for another.

KPTs mainly on the 1300s with lanyard and the Vamo, Davide Minis on the 650s for the most part for on the go ease. Approaching a year in, I could care less about shiny new stuff as much as functionality. The 650s are very functional in that they fit in my front pocket of my dress shirts without poking out the top. My usual setup now for on the go is 650mah-Davide Mini with my 18mg either Unicorn Blood or most usually Endless Summer. Then another Davide Mini with 24mg Spearmint on a 400mah Mini in my pants pocket. I only traded half my Minis I still have 6 haha.

Echo what Troy said. And backups for those as well. Between the wife and I we have 6 650mah non vv, 4 1000 mah, 4 650mah Spinners, and 4 1300mah spinners and 6 chargers in a power strip like a charging station. I also have a Vamo that I keep 6 18650 batteries charged for but am using the APV less and less and the smaller 650mah spinners are just so damn convenient lol.

Grats bro!

I decided not to post this in their thread but after vaping what is quickly approaching a year and trying literally hundreds of flavors from dozens of suppliers I can honestly say they are the bottom of the barrel. By far the most disgusting chemical taste I have ever had. It was so bad when I sent it free to another member of the forum the bottle had leaked into the bad with all the other bottles and they commented on the stench and how hard it was to get off the quality bottles of liquids. I would quit vaping or start back smoking if they were the only supplier available. If someone wants something similar that is even cheaper just pee in a bottle, add a little PG, VG, and Nic and I bet it would still be infinitely better than this garbage.

Nicotine absolutely affects flavor. That's why when you try the 0 nic testers in a B&M then get home with the 18-24mg nic it tastes completely different. Outside the flavorings used, nicotine % is the second most important thing that affects flavor.

Fuzion, Vapedudes, and ECBlends are the only three I personally use.

Vamo is a great value, only APV I own or foresee owning.

Check out ECBlends too massive totally customizable menu. You can even DIY and make your own flavors.

Everyone I know of offers extra flavor just sayin.

I find pockets to be useful for such a situation lol. Mine is in my pocket all day at work. Lanyard is fine on the lake or when doing some activities but lets face it, its a tad dorky at least to me haha.

Haven't lost one yet over 10 months in.

A 650mah will last me a 10-12 hour shift at work vaping whenever wherever I want.

One can learn a ton by reading the stickied topics in each sub- forum. If it's not in there ask and you will always get a good response.

Thicker juice= more dry hits. The gurgling is usually condensation gathering in the shaft and running down into your coil. Usually occasionally blowing it out the bottom onto a paper towel will fix it until it builds up again.

After getting my wife a couple Spinner 650s I decided to get myself a couple too. Spinner 650mah and wither KPT2 or Davide Mini fit perfectly in the front pocket of my work shirts. I think I will now officially have more ego batteries than I know what to do with.

No way to equate that to a number or packs of analogs. One tank pretty much lasts me all day with the full size Pro Tank 2. I use mainly 2.2ohm coils. Any coil size will work with the batteries.

A lot of us got to make the mistakes first and only want to help others from making the same. Not to be conceited but I could buy whatever I want, cost is not really an object so to speak. I have all sorts of Vision Spinners and tanks and stuff. Funny thing is I still use the non VV EgoT 1000mah that came with my starter kit I got nearly a year ago more than my Vamo or my spinners lol. I too wasted $200 on ******** mall cigar store cig alike kits before finding this forum. Be thankful you found it before you made that same expensive mistake.

If you try to skimp, you will 100% spend more in the long run. If it doesnt say JoyeTech or Vision on it and it is an Ego style battery just stay away imo.

That has nothing to do with nic haha. It has to do with trying to purge the idiots that refuse to grow, you know, the ones that think things should be done a certain way and the only reasoning is "Well, we always did it that way before". Sometimes the only solution is a massive purge.

Nah 24 gets it done when I need a hardcore burst lol. 90%+ of the time I am solidly on 18mg and am happy with that. I try and only use 24mg when I need to at this point because it dehydrates me terribly no matter how much water I take in. Amazing that my wife can vape 3-4ml a day of 24mg. She is 6' tall, 130lbs, and can drink my *** under the table too haha.

Keep the 24mg on hand, like I said my wife has been on 24mg exclusively for approaching a year. Dont put too much pressure to do 18mg over 24. If you need 24, go with 24. I am puffing on 24mg right now because I have a staff of damn idiots and am about to fire about a half a dozen people.
