I take my glasses off when I start wrapping coils ...

Someone from another forum passed along a tank to me last week ... It's an ocd tank from ibtanked ... Pyrex tube with acrylic caps, 19 mm xl length. Holds about a ml less than the big smoktek ones.

i killed 2 in a week ... my 1000mah twist and one of my 1100mah kgo's ...

got me and the wife each one of the 18650 egos, i'm digging it a lot. 2000mah imr 18650 is lasting me a day and a half with a carto on it, most of a day with the genesis. that 1.2Ω coil just eats the battery though.
 
picked up a pair of no-battery usb passthroughs on the cheap ... the ones that switch from 3v-3.6-4.2-4.8 ... on the computer, it rocks.

sadly, where i ordered them from just got dumped by their CC processor ... with no warning. so unless you are in or near toledo ...
 
haven't read any posts, but wanted to enter.

tried it. the intensity was there, and i can see the appeal to a degree. my problem was the length of effect. weak. i get better results from my $15 dugout. and it doesn't need accessories, fits in my pocket and i can replace it with one trip's worth of scrap metal at the recyclers.

what am i missing?

uhm, this is not a thread about "herbal supplements" :D

just sayin'
 
tk421,
yup figured that out after i posted. my bad. the thread title threw me.

tried the ecigs for a minute, tho. still the same post applies in principle. weak, not an acceptable substitute IMO. the patch always works until i stop putting it on. when i'm ready, i'll go that way, just guess i'll have to wear it forever haha. my good friend got through it all with chantix, but it almost cost him his wife.... he said the disclaimer about the vivid dreams and change in mood is no joke. but kudos to all of you, i havent found anything in vapor with the juevos to fulfill my cravings enough. i am skinny as h&%) though, so maybe cold turkey might actually put some beef in my "buck-twenny" little a#* :)

Hence the thread, the knowledge in this thread explains and proves they can not only can be a substitute, but also MUCH more powerful than burning tobacco.

read up and give it a try when you are ready to quit... or if you want a healthier & cheaper alternative.

will do.
the thing i think for me isn't as much the freudian or even social issue. it's the nicotine and the necessity of being a smoker. let me explain that second point. anyone with a foodservice job (probably other fields, too, but i can't think of any) will testify... for some reason, only smokers get breaks during the shift. seems a little discriminatory, yes, but it does seem to be the case. and let's face it, i'm a lazy mutha, so i do what i gotta do to get that 5 mins off line every few hours. there's no lunch break. there's no 15 minute break at 10:30 and 2:30. and sometimes there's no break at all. for some reason, though, the restaurant biz accepts giving their "addicted by choice" folks 5 or so mins to grab one.
i'll give it a closer read through, maybe i'll be inspired. switching from one nicotine addiction to a different, possibly higher dose nicotine addiction does seem (on the surface) a bit of counter-productivity. i already did that once.... i was a baseball player; smokeless and chewing tobacco got in my pocket first.
