Cigarettes to E-Cigs, who's done it?

clamum · Mar 21, 2017

I now think it was coffee that was staining my bottom front inside teeth but I suppose it's not impossible vaping had some part of it. I'm having a cavity filled today in that bottom front area too. Who knows.

Anyway, I've ordered some more juice from Vapor HQ. I think their juice has a lot more flavor than Mt. Baker. I've had their Fruit Medley (amazing), Pear (not very good), and Energy Drink (tastes like RedBull/Rockstar, pretty good). I've left them a couple comments on orders to make a kiwi flavor, lol. A straight up kiwi flavor, not polluted with some bullshit like strawberry or something.

I used to buy from Mt Baker but when they got rid of the 8oz bottles I decided to just start mixing my own. My god is it cheap. I buy 8 oz bottles of 6mg juice for $5 from e-liq. And its like $3 for a 30mL bottle of flavoring, which seems to make about a pint of finished e-juice. So now I only pay $0.75 per 30mL bottle that I mix myself. Of course I spent about $30 trying different flavors, but that's always been a part of vaping. Unfortunately I still cannot find a mix that replicate's Mister E's lemonade. I've tried literally a dozen different lemon flavorings. I dont see what is so hard about lemon. I am seriously considering befriending someone who works at Mr E and getting them to give me the recipe.

i quit cigs cold turkey about 8 years ago. was clean for 3 years and one day out of the blue I started having hardcore cravings for a smoke especially driving home. I refused to get back on that nasty shit, so after fighting the urges for a few days I stopped at a gas station and picked up a Vuse vape pen. I had never vaped before and was willing to give it a try before i slipped up an bought a pack of smokes. the pen worked it satisfied my psyco and chemical needs and has kept me off cigs. I have been vaping for 5 years or so now, and have tried several rigs over time, I now have a Nautilus rig that i have been using for year now and its the best one i have had. I mix my own juice so like cigs, im "brand loyal" but only to my alchemy. ecigexpress.com is where i get my unflavored bases.

i cant stand cig smoke now, the smell of it is disgusting, I try not to look down upon smokers but I do. I wish i could go back in time to kick my younger self in the ass to not to start that stupid shit.

On a side note, I had my semi-annual dentist cleaning yesterday and they asked about the nasty ass lookin stains on the inside of my bottom teeth, right around the middle area (like the middle four teeth in total). I had noticed them several weeks ago but knew I was visiting the dentist soon. I should've taken pics.

I wasn't sure but now I'm pretty sure it's due to vaping. I thought it might be due to drinking coffee through a straw (usually) but the coffee isn't going to that spot in my mouth and I paid attention when vaping and the vapor goes right there. Kind of annoying because I almost always am using a clear liquid (from Mt Baker Vapor) but I'm gonna keep my tongue over those bottom teeth and I bet my next paycheck that fixes it.

i had that nasty brown shit on my teeth when i smoked. since i have been vaping no brown shit on my teeth and my dental health has improved 100%.

Vaping is just as stupid as smoking. Me, I prefer a real cigarette or cigar to some chinese pond water.

4 ingredients in vape compared to 7,000 chemicals in cigs... yea great logic keep on trucking.

So, I'm looking for a new mod box, as the charging port of mine just sorta ripped out (cheap soldering) and is stuck to the charging cable.
- It charges, but the female port is no longer attached to the box, but rather is on the male port.

What quality, long-battery life, sub-ohm boxes do you recommend?
- Right now, I'm on a cleito tank and would like to move to making my own coils in the future.

Wismec Predator 228. Should be available soon. Box only is around $40. Get some decent batteries such as Samsung Q30, 25R, Sony VTC6. Don't buy batts from Amazon or Ebay. Liionwholesale.com is pretty cheap and doesn't have minimum order requirements. NEVER buy rewraps (Efest, MXJO, Trustfire, etc.)

Daniel in this review loves it!

Spoken like a true tool. Yeah, that one "flavor" ingredient probably has about as many chems as a cig.

Are you even being serious right now? As in, this is something you legitimately believe?

instead of guessing, and making an ass out of yourself, why dont you tell us how many chems and the names of said chems are in food grade flavorings.

nobody that vapes has a suggestion for a nice 2 battery mod?

jesus christ people I need some fucking help here!

umm ruby posted one in #57. I am intrigued by it.

nakedfrog · Mar 21, 2017

Yeah, what he said.
My buddy uses the same Kanger one you were already talking about, and I'm still happy with single battery.

The new king on the block is the Smok GX350. It takes four 18650 batteries in a form factor only slightly larger than the Wisemec Reuleaux RX200/300. Still, that makes it large and cumbersome for carrying around purposes IMO, but it's the tops for home use. Pairing it with the new Smok TFV12 tank makes for a vile combo. For outside the home use I still prefer mods with built-in batteries to anything with replaceable 18650s. They are just smaller for the same or better amounts of power. I like the Sigelei J80, Vaporesso Target Mini, and the Artery Nugget paired with either the Smok Baby Beast TFV8 or the old but still great for its purpose Kanger Top Tank mini depending on how small I want to go. I haven't looked at the newest small mods in a bit, there may be better out there now than those above.

Rubycon · Mar 22, 2017

GX350 is smaller than the Wismec 300 due to its diamond shape. Users (like the alien mod) are reporting finish issues with paint peeling in just a week's time. :/ It's a budget oriented device so no real worries. But the battery door is REALLY hard to release AND its USB port does NOT charge the batteries like other mods so there's that.

For built in, nothing beats a decent 2.2Ah 3S lipo mated to a DNA250 board. Vape for days at 30-50W or switch to a monster stapled Clapton build on a 28.5mm Armageddon Elite II and hit at 200+ W! Vapors in the same class as TFV12 with T12V12 coil heads and flavor that's out of this world.

Smok Alien. I have it and the single cell version the AL85. Best damn mods I've used in the three years I've been vaping. The early models had pretty bad finish durability but later runs are much better. Mine has some wear and tear but I am pretty brutal on mine. If it's a huge concern there are tons of silicon sleeve options for dirt cheap.

Nice dude. Thanks. The silver and black model looks dope. Gonna pick one up.

I 3D printed myself a vape tray.

It costed $30 from my local 3D hubs printer. I couldnt find one that held all the types of stuff I use, which is mainly 60mL bottles. So I just made my own. The best part is that it is only a couple hundred lines of source code in OpenSCAD.

Code:

 $fn = 100;

The reason it is 200 lines of code and not 100 is because I wanted to keep the insides all hollow to reduce material costs. It would be much more expensive if it was a solid chunk of plastic with a bunch of holes.

The reason it is 200 lines of code and not 100 is because I wanted to keep the insides all hollow to reduce material costs. It would be much more expensive if it was a solid chunk of plastic with a bunch of holes.

That looks pretty cool. And that it would fit right on top of my desktop amp, which is perfect, with a few modifications of course to fit my larger mods. I need one made for my kit!

$30 sounds kind of expensive for a plastic tray. If I wanted something like that, I'd go for wood.

What about fingering your anus in the shower?
Going to Chuck E. Cheese alone?
Offering drunk girls a ride home on NYE?
Shooting up Hooters parking lots?

Do you think those should be more socially acceptable as well?

What is this about shooting up in Hooters parking lots?

I tried that originally but I could not locate all the necessary drill bits, and I have access to a machine shop with over 500 drill bits. But we dont have many bits over 1.0". It would cost an arm and a leg to buy all those different large drill bit sizes. This tray has all the holes exactly where I want them. The fit is snug but not tight. I could hold this tray at a 115 degree angle and nothing would fall out.

Forstner bit sets are cheap. And you've given me an idea...

Cigarettes to E-Cigs, who's done it?
