I just got my package in the mail today from Vapor Bomb. I love getting packages! Right now I am trying their Fire And Ice juice. I have the 50/50 PG/VG mix at 30mg nic. I kind of knew what to expect going into this one. I knew it was a combination of their Cinnabomb and Menthol. This sounded like a decent mix to me. A lot of e juice places are starting to have this combo, but this is the first time I am trying it. Even though I kind of knew what to expect, this juice has exceeded those expections. Just awesomeness in liquid form this here juice! On inhale, the first thing I get is a cooling sensation and a tingling in my nose from the menthol. I am really diggin' this. Shortly afterwards, I get a slight burn on my lips from the cinnamon. Nothing too hot. It just lets you know that it is there. On exhale, I get this really nice combo of the cinnamon and menthol flavors mingling with one another. Its as if they had been dancing in my lungs. I have found another favorite and a flavor I could easily vape all day. I have attached a link to the juice so you can see what I am talking about.

I would also vote for the eGo or Tornado. Same thing just named differently. Great battery life and just an all around great device. A lot of the kits you will find, will come with 2 attys. Attys are a crap shoot. They can last days or months, no matter the brand. It is just the way it is. I have been lucky and I have not had 1 atty go bad on its own. I have screwed up one myself. Cartomizers are great also. As has been said, cartos are the cartridge and atty built into 1 piece. Whereas an atty can cost around $9, you can get a 5 pack of cartos for that price. If you are a smoker that really needs a great throat hit, you may want to look into some Low Resistance attys or cartomizers. They take the 3.7v eGo and somewhat make it mimic a 5v device. Much greater throat hit which is what I need. I have attached a link to the low res cartos I have been using, and they are fantastic.

The nicotine strength listed for e-liquid is the number of milligrams of nicotine per milliliter in a bottle. That means a 10ml bottle of 24mg nicotine e-juice would have 240mg of nicotine in it (24mg x 10ml). Likewise, a 30ml bottle of 24mg e-liquid would have 720mg of nicotine in it (24mg x 30ml).

We all have an idea of how many drops of e-liquid we use each time we drip onto a cartridge or directly onto the atomizer. All we need to know then is how many drops of e-liquid are in a milliliter.

There are approximately 20 drops of e-liquid per milliliter. So, using a 24mg nicotine e-juice once again as an example, there would be 1.2mg of nicotine per drop (24mg ÷ 20 drops). So, if you put three drops of e-liquid onto a cartridge (or directly onto the atomizer for those of you that “direct-drip”), that means you will be taking in 3.6mg of nicotine from the time you start vaping until you “top off” again.

So I would go with 18 or 12mg e-juice if i was you!

Honestly... I think you got some crappy juice. The nic level you got really shouldn't be too much at all!

Not really. That was for Bob and Actor, I know they love this stuff. So after seeing so many reviews for this stuff, I caved in and placed an order. I am not into tobacco flavored juices, so I was a little skeptical. I ordered 12ml of both 24mg nic Boba's Bounty and a Blueberry flavor. Something else I was skeptical of was the fact that Boba's is 100% VG. I know that PG usually offers more throat hit, and that is the most important part of vaping to me....even over flavor. I must say, that I am very suprised with this stuff. For being 100% VG, I get a better throat hit than a lot of my PG juices. Also, the flavor is really good. I don't get much tobacco out of it, but rather a nice graham cracker taste like others have described. It really taste like a honey graham cracker. It isn't a strong taste, but enough to be very satisfied with. Dripping at 4.39v on my AV Joker, this stuff is damn delectable. I have a lot of different juices and I usually go between 5 or 6 different flavors a day, but in the last 3 days, I have not vaped anything other than this Boba's. I am really going to have to think about getting the 100ml bottle of this stuff. Along with the 2 12ml bottles I ordered, they through in an 18ml Gamel juice. That is bigger than the two I ordered! Awesome. And while this is a tobacco juice, it is actually quite pleasant. But Boba's reigns supreme. I am now saving for the big bottle. Thanks Bob and Actor for the little extra subliminal push.

No study or statistic has been offered that points to the Swine Flu as being more deadly than tobacco cigarettes in causing death, yet a disproportional effort in preventative measures are currently being channeled to defend against a lower risk health issue. Toxic tobacco smoke contains many additional chemicals, including carbon monoxide and tar which is a sticky substance that accumulates in the lungs, causing lung cancer and respiratory distress. Tobacco is the leading cause of preventable death in the world and is responsible for more than 5 million deaths each year.

What the flu vaccine is to H1N1 as a preventative, the electronic cigarette may be for the tobacco smoker. An electronic cigarette is a futuristic advancement in science that makes it look, feel, and taste like a tobacco cigarette, as the user duplicates the mechanical motions. It expels an almost odorless water vapor that looks like smoke, but isn't. The e cigarettes are battery-powered with a cartridge that typically contains nicotine in various levels (or none), propylene glycol and tobacco flavoring. In their October briefing, Action on Smoking and Health (ASH) in the United Kingdom released a favorable position on electronic cigarettes.

Propylene glycol, the primary ingredient in the electronic cigarette cartridge, may be a powerful deterrent against pneumonia, influenza, and other respiratory diseases when vaporized and inhaled according to a study by Dr. Oswald Hope Robertson. Decades before the e cigarette was invented, a study was conducted by Dr. Robertson of the University of Chicago's Billings Hospital in 1942 on inhalation of vaporized propylene glycol in laboratory mice. A more in-depth article was printed in the 1942 issue of TIME Magazine http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,932876,00.html for November 16th. "Dr. Robertson placed groups of mice in a chamber and sprayed its air first with propylene glycol, then with influenza virus. All the mice lived. Then he sprayed the chamber with virus alone. All the mice died."

The researchers also found that "the propylene glycol itself was a potent germicide. One part of glycol in 2,000,000 parts of air would--within a few seconds--kill concentrations of air-suspended pneumococci, streptococci and other bacteria numbering millions to the cubic foot."

Clinical trials on electronic cigarettes containing propylene glycol were carried out in New Zealand by Dr. Murray Laugeson of Health New Zealand and can be found on the website of SS Choice LLC at http://www.eCigarettesChoice.com under the tab "Media Coverage." Far from posing a threat to our health, the propylene glycol in e cigarettes might just keep us healthy. Further studies should be done on the effects of propylene glycol to determine if it can be used successfully as a virus prevention tool. Wouldn't it be wonderful if the best flu preventative was right under our noses all this time?

I have ordered from Viking Vapor. They are decent. I find myself going back to their bottles of juice quite a bit each day. Vapor Bomb is real good. I just got a bunch of theirs yesterday. Whatever you do, it is probably best to just get the samplers first and if you find ones you like, then order a larger quantity. I have 5 or 6 samplers from different suppliers that I will never touch again, so I am glad I did not waste money on a larger quantity.

The last one is the Tornado. It is the same thing as an eGo, just different name. They have other colors than pink. They have black, red and white that I know of. 70% of the time, someone starting out is looking for a model that most resembles a real cigarette. In the end, I would say that only 5-10% really care about that after actually getting the device and using it. You could get the extra batteries. I figured I would do the same thing, but after a week of recharging batteries 4 or 5 times a day, it became a real pain in the butt. I have the black Tornado and it rules. I started out with a model like the first 2 you pictured, and I sent it back the very next day. To me it was worthless. Yeah it kind of looked like a cigarette, but I hardly got any vapor or throat hit. It did not feel like I was using a cigarette and that was a real problem. With the Tornado, while it may not look like a cigarette, it perfoms more like one and that is what really matters. Welcome to Vapor Talk and don't hesitate to ask anymore questions!

I haven't heard of it, but here is their website. You should be able to get what you are looking for here.

Yeah it is not recommended to use LR attys or cartos on a basic 510 model. The eGo/Tornado uses the same 510 attys and carts but their batteries can handle the LR. I use them all the time on my Tornado and Screwdriver.

I have 5 PV's (Joye 510, Tornado, Screwdriver, Silver Bullet, Joker AV). I have only had the Joker AV for a few days, but it is quickly becoming my go to favorite. Adjustable voltage is where it is at. I have many different juices, and not all of them are good in one particular model, except for the Joker. If I am not getting a good enough throat hit, I turn up the voltage. Then I will try a different juice on the same setting, and it will be kicking too much. In that case, I turn down the voltage. It gives you so many options. I

Hi,

This is a good video to show people like me(6 months ago) how ecigs work!! it's a rather long video so if you already know how they work don't waste you time! I guess this video it guides more towards new people or if you want to explain somebody what we use!!!

I am getting disgusted with the banning crap. OK Tyson (my name) chill out. I cannot fathom the thinking going on here. I understand that the government is worried about this being a glorified device to children. E Cigs were never meant to come out to market as a way to get kids addicted to something (nicotine). I (myself) believe that electronic cigarettes came about because of the push across the nation to be smoke free. Just this last April, Michigan went smoke free in public places (restaurants, bars). I was fine with that. I would go outside during rain, sleet, snow, whatever to have a smoke. It really didn't bother me. Mostly due to having a daughter and I didn't want to subject her to the smoke. When my wife and I bought our first house, the basement became a man cave. I have the bigscreen, movie posters and bar down there. I used to smoke down there. When my wife told me that she was pregnant, I instantly stopped smoking inside and went into the attached garage or back porch depending on wheather. I still wasn't satisfied with the situation. I would go out to the garage and smoke, and then come back inside and play with my daughter Rheagan. I didn't know if the smell on my clothes and person affected her or not. It really bothered me. I found this forum and started using electronic cigarettes. I have been analog free for over a month now and I feel like I am living the life. Right now, it is 2:12a and I am down in my man cave watching Surviving The Cut on Discovery and vaping away. I don't feel guilty any longer. If I am having 1 on 1 time with my daughter, I will not vape, but when I have the opportunity, I do so. This has helped me to keep from smoking for over a month now.

Would I want my daughter to think what her daddy is doing is cool? And when she grows up, she is addicted to nicotine by way of an e-cig. Absolutely not. But if a family member of mine was a chronic smoker and was interested in vaping, you better believe that I am going to be a fanboy for e-cigs.

I don't know how all of this is going to turn out, but I pray that the powers that be make a rational decision. A decision not based on greed ($) but on how we can better ourselves as a nation.

I will be mixing like mad this weekend. I have 1 more exam tomorrow in Human Relations and then I am done for just about a month until the fall semester starts. I have to keep my fingers crossed that I make it into the program I am going for. There will be 60 or so people applying and they may take 20. I have been working my butt off so I think my chances are good. I didn't do horrible in high school (about a 3.5 GPA) but if I had dedicated myself 17 years ago like I have been now, I could have gotten into a good school and perhaps had a scholarship right off the bat. Better late than never though.

Today was like Christmas. I went to school this morning and took a couple of exams, then came home and went to lunch with my wife. We got home and it was 1:00p. The mailman is usually here around then. I walked down the driveway and inside of my mailbox was 3 small priority shipping boxes! Yeah!!! One of the boxes is from Electronicstix.com I got me a 5 pack of their new LR cartomizers to try out. I also got my first wide mouth driptip. I have 4 of the Nhaler twisted drip tips, but I am loving this wide mouth. Another box contained my Joker variable voltage e cig along with the voltage reader. I am very excited about this bad boy. I will be doing a review later. Last but not least, was a package with a bunch of different Lorann and Flavourart flavorings as well as a bottle of a different kind of VG to use. This did not come from a store. This came from the very generous forum member Kitsune! Out of nowhere she asked me if I would be interested in trying some different stuff. I said sure, and 2 days later, all of this stuff arrives. She is unbelievable. Thank you so much Kit. I will be taking your Q, and paying if forward in the future. Thank you for your generosity.

Those numbers can refer to the unit itself or either the battery or atomizer. If someone says I have a 801 they probably have the DSE801 battery/atomizer combo. If someone says, "I'm using a vp2(battery mod) with an 801" it refers to the 801 atomizer. Same goes with the other models. The atomizer of choice for a lot of people is the 510 so you'll hear that a lot. For instance the Joye eGo comes standard with the 510, meaning the eGo is the battery and it uses the Joye 510 atomizer.

Edit: Those three atomizers types are the most popular, with good reason, so you'll hear them refereed to the most. The 801 and 901 are made by SLB so you'll see DSE801/DSE901. Joye makes the Joye510 but a lot of other companies now make the 510 unit/atomizer/battery as well; such as SLB (DSE510). Joye is known for having high quality products, most of the time : )
