any smokers switch to Vaping yet?

for me, it was to never smoke a tobacco product again. I will likely stop vaping at some point but for now, I still enjoy the social / ritual aspect of it (same for me as it was with smoking).

I've been trolling this thread for a little while. What is considered safer juice?

Outdated article with no concrete facts IMHO. But definitely do your researched... I'm leery about import juice and such so I only buy from sweet-vapes because I know the use domestic sourced & safe ingredients.
That said, juice venders are working on a self regulation organization too.

Good to know. I will check sweet vales out. I don't smoke but a cigarette or two per day, but if my wife ever gets prego, she wants me to quit altogether.
Thanks James
My order has been processed and is either ready to ship or on its way.
As far as juice is concerned, I've got a sampler coming with a coffee flavor, ry4, cherry tobacco, Andes mints, and a fruit flavor. I got them all in varying mixes of pg and vg and flavor strengths and sweetnesses to get a feel for the stuff. All of them are high nic strength.

Been using the eGo-T for about a year and a half. It works great. I'd much rather puff on it than a cigarette. The only problem is that since I can puff on it just about anywhere, I think I'm more addicted to nicotine now than I was when I smoked. Oh well, at least I'm not getting the carcinogens from cigarettes. I plan on putting the e-cig down soon too and be free of it all.
Starting day 1 with no analogs. Had only 1 yesterday after everything finished charging and was ready to go.
I think one of the clearomizers that came with it was a dud though. One is working fantastically, but the other has defied my every attempt to get it to work. Going to head over and shoot them an email and see what the best course of action is.

Make sure the center pin is making contact with the battery post ...most ego types will give three quick flashes of the button light if it is shorted our blown coil.
I've made it 4 days now without an analog, and I actually gave a buddy the remaining packs out of my carton.
The VV on the Twists is awesome, and I like being able to dial it in. I've found, for me, around 4 is the right setting. Good amount of flavor and vape. Five days in, I'd easily recommend this to any smokers right now.

The working clearo is going good on both batteries. I've got it dialed in with the VV on both. The other clearo has given me a few good hits, but other than the occasional lucky strike, I've gotten nothing from it. I went ahead and ordered a new atomizer for it along with a V3 clearo. When I get the extra time, I'm going to sit down with the thing and see if I can't figure out how to get it working it to use as a spare. I didn't contact them within the 24-48 hour DOA time frame.
Got my juice order from vapedudes today. Be aware, if you are running low on juice... vapedudes took 3 weeks to get my order to me. Madvapes takes about 3 days (only two days on my last order).
The juice from vapedudes is good stuff. They even sent me an extra 30ml bottle. Overall, very satisfied with vapedudes, Just make sure you order early enough that you don't run out.

Vapedudes just hired a 2nd juice maker and is closed this week for training / catch up / holiday ...
my wife's favorite is their strawberry and cream ... i am partial to their mocha java drizzle and rum & cola.
my cousin ordered some and got a bottle bumped up to a 30ml for free.
I ordered some 2Ω punched & flanged ce2's, a 6ml tank, and a couple of drip tips from madvapes last week. when i got it monday, everything was right, except my white/orange swirl fat belly tip was actually a clear anodized alu fat belly tip ...
put in a ticket on monday night, and by noon tuesday they had a replacement in the mail. should be here friday. awesome customer service.
i also ordered more juice from ECBlends, and picked up 5 of the blunt needle bottle caps. these things are freaking awesome - my wife can fill her own ce2's now. i am more into the vivi nova and carto tanks for on the go, and my phoenix at home.
James - took a cue from you, and debridged one of my 2Ω 510 atties. freaking brilliant. i might have to look into some more dripping atties once the $$ situation stabilizes.

I always use Madvapes, mostly because they make the menthol I vape. I always get my order in a day or two.
Vapedudes is awesome, though. Chris and the guys have been making some great liquids for quite some time now. Try their Chocolate Candy Cane. It's amazing.

Very cool! There is no compare IMHO/E to it. Other things are close and all, but for me, 3 or 4 drops in a 901 with a drip shield and I'm set for 2 or 3 cigarettes worth of vaping (couple hours). Nothing simpler, more convenient, or tastier for me.
I just placed an order with Empiremods.com One of my drip shields oring is starting to seep a little juice (year old and in constant use) so I picked up a 4 pack of rings and a couple of their bridgeless LR901 attys. Not quite as good as the Cisco/Avid, but close enough (and a buck cheaper each). I also splurged on 2 new drip shields...

(I ordered a "9.1 Burnout" and "7.Camo Green Sand"... wanted Halloween for the orange GLV, but they are out of stock).
As far as juice, I was a loyal cigarette brand smoker, and I am a loyal juice favor/vender vaper too.
Speaking of juice... I just started tapping into my last 30ml bottle and I was going to wait until next pay to order a couple more. I got an email this morning with a 'Cyber Monday' sale code. VLIQUID25 gets you 25% any and all 15ml or 30ml orders.
Brings the 30ml down to $15 each!

There is also an alternate code if people are ordering hardware of WINTERVAPES that gets you 15% off the entire order.
(I have no relationship with sweet-vapes, I just love the juice and the owners are pretty awesome too
)
Yeah, speaking of juice.
Yesterday I filled a new carto with my brand new bottle of Minthol from Madvapes. Took three hits, and within a few minutes every nerve ending in my body was standing on end, my chest was hurting, and then came the projectile vomiting.
This was the 11mg Minthol that I've been vaping (and sometimes chain vaping) for over a year, and my first reaction to it.
Something tells me they got the strength wrong. I gotta wonder how strong it really is, cuz even 24mg didn't cause that kind of reaction.
I've already contacted Madvapes,hopefully they'll replace the bottle.

ouch. heart palpitations? 3 hits did that? sounds like you got a hold of some 48mg uncut juice. i can vape 36mg really early in the morning, a few hits, with the first cup of coffee. after that i stick to the 11-18mg range.
i found a guy at work with a provari. apparently he's been vaping for a few years. had no clue, he just stealthed at his desk until last week. he let me try some Tasty Vapor lemon poundcake. very nice. and he is gonna give me an orion to play with ... will be my first genny style atty.
and i put a dual coil in my phoenix clone rebuildable. metered out at 1.7Ω, rocks on the kgo battery with a small tank sleeve, pumps out hiroshima sized clouds on the box @ 4v ... it's just 2 pre-rolled coils from discount vapers, one on each side of the posts. i put an extra wrap on each side to bring the resistance up a little ... due to running parallel having the effective resistance.
seriously, anyone with a phoenix clone should try this, and for nine bux at DV, just get one to play with. a dozen pre rolled coils is about nine bucks too.
