Awesome! What color did you order?

just the regular black/chrome. I do telecomm construction as my day job, it's probably not going to look pretty in a few weeks.

Now you'll be doing some real vaping. I recommend some SmokTech 1.7 or 2.0 cartomizers.

I went with the cart-tanks from altsmoke, I want something I don't have to refill every hour.
 
I was the 'Godfather' of vapes today... I had a 1st B'day party for my niece and was vaping with 4 others that have all started off of seeing me vape! 3 other analog smokers were trying out our gear and requested I send them the info so they can order too :bassist:

Oh and my new LR901's from avid were here when I got home form the party!

Very cool - we are saving lives!:bassist:

I converted one analog smoker at work to vaping last week and have one other close to ordering. Let's keep spreading the good word!
 
When I went to Shoppers Drug Mart to get a prescription, the lady in front of me asked the pharmacist if they had any ecigs. Of course she said no. I was able to help her, and showed her my PV. I also gave her a card from Juggies, and told her to check out ECF. There are a couple of places here that sell the no-nics, and advised her to avoid them.
After she left, and I picked up the meds, the pharmacist asked me about them herself. Spent about 20 mins. with her and showed how my setup works. She even let me vape right there in the store.
Might be 2 more converts. :D
 
Wow this is awesome! I havent made a real post yet, except in the classifieds. So after seeing this thread,I figured this would be the best place to start. Vaping bassists, hell yeah!
Ive been vaping for 2 and a half years and dont miss cigarettes at all. It was pretty cool flipping through this thread and seeing where you guys started and then fast forwarding to the most recent stuff and seeing where everyones at now. I started with a standard 510, then went to a Riva (ego), then went into the mod world with a prodigy V3 from pure smoker, then finally settled on a Provari for my one year anniversary present to myself. So anyway theres something of an intro. I used to spend a lot of time on ecf. This is the first forum ive paid attention to in a long time. After getting back into the music scene after almost 5 years. So yeah, whats up everybody?!?
 
....I lost my provari mini after an out of state gig last weekend.
....I thought it might turn up so I didn't order a new one for a week.
....using kr808s majorly sucks after using suck a sweet mod.
....I broke down and ordered a new provari mini in white w/ a blue LED.
....I found my provari the next day.


I knew that was gonna happen.
 
I worked with a guy who smoked for 20 years and he said the only ones he was ever happy with giving the right "kick" like a cigarette was a brand called green smoke. You can google it so I don't get in trouble on here...but anyways he swore by them.

NO I don't work for them or anything so please don't ban me or anything crazy.

I've got a whole spiel I run through whenever someone sees my PV and asks (or sometimes when I know they are staring and afraid to ask)

Might be 2 more converts. :D

Welcome to the thread! Glad to have another long time vaper around :bassist:

Perhaps you subconsciously misplaced it because you wanted a second one :smug:

They are a typical KR808 battery... just like the vapor4life brand I started on (probably made in the same Chinese factory as well). They are the 'Squier Pbass Pack' of the vaping world! They work just fine, but no comparison to the Provari, GLV, and Bolt type mods most of us have upgraded to (I still have my 2 KR808 batteries I've held onto and the wife still uses hers to vape Zero Nic fruity stuff instead of snacking during long computer sessions).
 
I've still got a couple 808's laying around, too. I only use them for emergencies, which don't happen very often.

I'm still loving my VV Gripper. After a month, it's still holding up to heavy vaping (which the Lavatube did not), works great. Definitely a cheaper alternative for those who don't wanna drop the money on a Provari or Darwin.

I started with Greensmoke. They are not bad but overpriced IMO. I just switched to the Smokeless Image Volt, and am much happier. The Desert Joe flavor is awesome, a great Camel like flavor with a touch of sweetness. Goes very well with brews. :bassist:
 
My GLV Super-Mini arrived today! I love this thing!
