    I don't have anything against blowing clouds if that is what is keeping a person off analogs, But....
     
    It is all about the spin, and 99% of people that don't have a clue about vaping hear the spin and not the truth. I don't think the "Making it a Sport" concept is doing the industry any favors.
     
    It won't be an $8.00 cigalike it will be (after taxes) more like a $28 dollar cigalike and $15 dollars for 2 refill carts that will last about as long as 1 pack making analogs cheaper pushing people back to analogs. This is what big tobacco wants.

    No not right now IMO. It's not my personal feeling that cloud contests and vaping as a sport is dumb it's the perception it perpetuates in the public eye.

    It's like when people in Colorado were fighting for legalization of cannabis. The media did not talk about the doctors and businessmen and women lined up the first day it was the twenty something living in his dad's basement with dreads and a knit cap sitting in the park looking like, well a loser. When the media reports on vaping and they show someone sitting on a park bench blowing huge clouds or show a cloud chasing competition they do not show me, the average vaper that has used basic equipment to keep off analogs for two years.

    Vaping for sport WILL play almost as big a hand in us being regulated heavily as big tobaccos influence.

    And all the while shops, websites and forums seem happy to advance this culture instead of pointing out that we may be our own worst enemy. There are really only 3 or 4 sub forums I even am active on here anymore because the "cloud chasing culture" annoys me. I have been saying the same thing this article points out for at least a year and a half and most disagreed. Now there are articles from experts saying the same thing and I would hazard to guess the cloud chasing sub ohm will still be 90% of the posts.

    I am for anyone to do as they please but when it can have an adverse affect on my freedom I speak up. Just remember when you are grabbing a $8 cig alike as your only choice to ask yourself is vaping for sport was a good idea.

    I just bought most of this in December 2014. Unfortunately I don't have the time or interest in dripping. The mod has only been used maybe 6 times. One battery fully charged and new, the other only used to power the mod the few times used.

    Comes with,
    Japanese cotton pads, organic cotton balls, about 10ft each of 32 and 28 GA wire from VapeSupply.
    Omega Plume Veil CLONE.
    26650 Cartel Copper Mod CLONE and Limited Edition Cartel Copper RDA.
    2 Pack, MNKE 26650 High drain 3.7v Li-Mn 3500mah rechargeable batteries
    Intellicharger i2 charger, newest version 2014

    I do not want to piece it out and would like to get $60 for everything shipped. Paypal, as a gift, or your welcome to mail a check, MO or CC. Please let me know if you have any interest. Thank you!

    My recommendation would to make very small batches (5ml) until you start hitting on what you like. Otherwise you will find yourself throwing away what your saving. If you mix something palatable try to vape through it and keep notes what you might change. As far as aging Ive learned if I didn't like it the day after I mixed it, I still didnt like it month later.

    I mix and vape, Im not running a wine cellar

    Haha! I cheated this year. Everyone kept asking what do you want for Christmas. Trying to explain exact vaping products I was scared I was going to get something from a gas station. I bought all the stuff I wanted, gave it to my wife, then she distributed it to the children stating she bought it for them to give me. Sure beats socks, underwear and ties!!!

    I saw where some idiot posted, ban ejuice because it killed a child. Ghee maybe we could ban automobiles as they kill adults and children on a daily basis. I lust love how dumb a**'s speak before thinking. I don't see the sky falling because of it but it certainly doesn't help.

    Omega clone, loaded it up and went for broke. After I quit coughing, my head spinning and eyes finally stopped watering I realized my regular 24mg juice was not going to work! After I went to 8mg I got a little more control of this thing and wow what a taste difference.

    I do but rarely run into this on my full size Nautilus. I run both BVC and BDC coils with a 60/40 ratio so I cant say which would have been in it at the time. If Im near a sink I just pull the bottom, rinse it, do a burn off and continue on. May not be the right way but it works for me. Like I said its so rare it doesnt bother me. Some real good info here, Ill try some of the other remedies when it occurs.

    One post wonders are always questionable on any forum. If you have a real concern you will need to introduce yourself and provide more background about this issue. Otherwise, I call for a spam banhammer!

    As in preservatives which may transfer over as a different taste I assume. Didnt think about that so I got some more research to do. good point.

    Ive been doing that for years and your right it works great! I buy a cheap bag of ryo, throw in a sprayer with a little Dawn and let it set a week or two in the sun. Its like Franks Hot Sauce, it works on everything lol!

    Well, I said I wouldn't buy a Nautilus because of the price-factor, so I'd have to wait for the tank-fairy to drop one at my door...

    Guess what the tank-fairy dropped in my mailbox this morning


    I gotta thank AshGone.com for giving out freebies last month... if not for their generosity, I'd still be without a Nautilus...

    The thing with SEC football is any team, on any given day, can upset another. Im still pouting over the Bama Ole Miss game so dont loose hope. Im a Bama fan living dead center in a huge UT, Ole Miss fan base so I have to be careful

    I get your rant on buying US and do as much as possible. The few things I do order direct from China are China made and have a 500% mark up here. Absolutely I will pay more for US made but I wont be raped by greedy distributors here. I think the Scout uniforms made in China representing a US tradition is a bit much, that would chap me also.

    Ive been down to two cigarettes a day for a month now. This morning I threw the pack away to see how it went. This afternoon at a job site I walked dead center into a smoking area, stood there for a moment, then moved on. I really expected to fall in the floor screaming for one but I took a few vapes and surprisingly I lived lol.

    Im not sure what was taking my dumb arse so long, to finally push myself over that edge, but its done and Im digging it. Now to start trimming down the nic levels.This forum is more supportive than many realize so keep up the good work members and thank you.
