haha thanks for that Keenan. I'm actually a big fan of astronomy, so I found this article to be pretty interesting. Actually, I'm not that big a fan anymore. I wouldn't be able to locate a constellation if my life depended on it. But once in a blue moon I'll go out and try to catch a meteor shower....

haha for real. I try to stand the bottle upside down for awhile and see it does anything. It helps a little, but there's just no way to get every drop.

That's great news! Everyone is different I guess. I was pretty much the same as you though. It didn't take me too long to completely switch to vaping, but at first I was still craving analogs. My morning and after meal smoke was probably the last to go, but everything in between I would be vaping. It took me no more than a week to completely make vaping my routine and drop the analogs. Keep up the good work!

You know what the worst part is? You can see a little bit left at the bottom...but no matter how hard you try for some reason you can't get them to drip out. It's the biggest tease and it makes you want to cry more. LOL

hahaha oh man. Yeah I read this a couple weeks ago. It's so true...it's sad actually lol.

Thanks Chris. I did order from you but I'm going to wait a little bit and do more testing on it. Like I said it just started happening yesterday so I don't want to jump the gun and put in a ticket if it's just something I'm doing wrong. I'm thinking it might be the attys I got from the China supplier. It's weird because they work great on the 510 batteries, but only so-so on the spade. The janty atty that came with the spade was kickin butt on the spade but I never tried it on the 510 batteries. I clogged it, so I can't do much more testing with it at the moment. Could there possibly be a compatibility issue with the attys and batteries as far as performance goes? I know that sounds weird, but just a thought. I want to buy extra attys from you, but it's going to have to wait. Damn holidays got me low on funds...lol. I'll keep you posted though.

Sorry to hear about your situation Schizophretard. I noticed this is happening to mine as well. I haven't noticed how long the batteries are lasting though. And I don't know if it's an atty or battery problem yet as it just started happening today. The atty that came with the spade was working great for about a week, but then it clogged up. Guess I was over-dripping. I plan on cleaning it one day to unclog it. But for now I switched to an atty I got from some China supplier. Was working great the past couple days until today when I started experiencing what you're experiencing. When I get the money I plan on buying some attys from the VT Store to see if it makes a difference. For now I have to live with what I have and hope it doesn't get worse. Where did you get your spade from and what atty were you using when this started happening to you? The original Janty atty that came with the spade or another one that came from another supplier?

Congrats Dave! It feels great doesn't it? I notice a lot more energy throughout the day myself. I don't get all crazy tired by the middle of the day anymore. Well sometimes I do, but I figure now it's from lack of sleep. This might sound silly too, but after a few rounds of Wii Tennis at work I used to go through a coughing frenzy but not anymore (yeah, we have video games at work). I love that I can breathe again!

Welcome Lordvapor! That's definitely a great story. Sounds like you're going to have a great 2010! I agree with Brian, don't think too much about quitting. I honestly didn't plan to quit when I first started vaping, but it just sorta happened on it's own. You'll be surprised how easy it is with these things. I'm sure you'll have plenty of questions, so don't hesitate to ask. Happy Vaping!

Yeah, you'd be surprised how much gunk comes out of these things. I usually blow the atty out onto a paper towel before I go to bed, then set it upside down to drain overnight. This is pretty much the only maintenance I do and it's worked pretty well for me so far. Moved to Tips and Tricks

hahahah...that's great. :rofl:

Wow that's awesome. Great job stu!

hahaha I've read this somewhere before. pretty hilarious.

That's great! But I'm actually staying in town this weekend...now what am I gonna do?!? Guess I'll have to drink my sorrows away. Wait..I was gonna do that anyway. Well not drink sorrows away...but just drink cuz I'm a happy person. Cheers!

Good job Jeff! Yeah, I've had plenty of instances when I thought having business cards would be nice. I just tell them vaportalk and hope they remember.

hahahahahha!! Just saw this now. I love the original sesame street clip of this. Or was it the muppets show? Dooo doo da doo doo. Mahna mahna! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YXrU1GFqYEU

Nice review! I love kung pao chicken too and was wondering how it was. Not sure I'd want to vape it though.

Oh man sorry to hear about your bad luck! I've definitely had my share of bad attys, but 4 in a row is just terrible. I'm wondering if it could've been the batteries or the PT you were using. Let us know when you test it out with the VT attys. Good thing you have that spade though. Christmas might have come early for you, but at least now you know what real vaping is all about. And it's better than going back to analogs I think. The atty that came with the spade will definitely last you awhile. I've only had mine for a week now, but it's still vaping really well.

Wow! 1000 posts. You're crazy. Congrats my man. Keep it up.

Hey Alucard! Thanks for sharing your story. The 510 is definitely a great kit to start off with. Actually, I've been vaping for a few months now and have gone through most of the models. I still use the 510 today lol. I tried 1 of the carts that came with the kit and that's it. The rest are just stashed away somewhere. They don't taste good IMO. The dulcis and mentha will really knock your socks off though. Definitely some great juice there. Breaking your atomizers in definitely makes a difference too. You'll find that some will take longer than others though. I don't think anyone knows much about "The Maserati". That page has been up on dietsmokes for a long time now and no word on what's up with it yet. I'd like to know as well, but for now I'm happy with my spade. I've had it for about a week now and I'd have to say it's really one of the best models out there. Great battery life and the atomizer really packs a punch in vapor production. It's a bit larger than the regular 510 battery, but I'm not afraid to carry it around in public. It's actually a great conversation starter. The bright lights on the side will attract just about anyone's attention. But you can always flip the battery around so the lights don't turn on if you want to be stealth about it.

From what I understand, the gold band is just for aesthetics. As far as performance, they should be the same unless you get a generic 510 atty.

I got google wave, but haven't played with it yet. Here's a 2 minute video I found that briefly explains what it can do. Sounds like it could become really useful. http://www.businessinsider.com/google-wave-explained-in-two-minutes-clip-2009-10

Woot has some pretty interesting stuff up sometimes. Been meaning to try and buy something from them, but I keep forgetting to. I missed out on a $5 marshmallow gun awhile back. I wanted to run around the office and shoot my coworkers with marshmallows. LOL

haha yeah I wasn't really too heavy of a smoker. I don't even think I've ever smoked a whole pack in one day. I might have this one time after a really bad breakup, but that only lasted a week. I've probably already spent at least 3 times what my signature says on ecigs, so it will be awhile before I break even.

Looks like everyone pretty much answered your questions, but I wanted to jump in and just say welcome to the forum!
