AIBU ... to STILL feel positively evangelical about electronic cigarettes? [thread 2]

Here we go with thread two.

There is a great deal of information on Thread One about vaping :

www.mumsnet.com/Talk/am_i_being_unreasonable/1865547-to-feel-positively-evangelical-about-electronic-cigarettes?pg=1

I think that many of us have been able to give up smoking thanks to e-cigs & vaping & are all feeling the positive results & want to spread the message.

And I've done it - I hope I like them. Even though I really like the fruity ones they can get a bit samey after a while.

QueenStromba · 02/01/2014 19:18

Worst cross post ever! I think other people on here have liked the apple pie - maybe someone will swap you for a flavour they're not keen on.

PlentyOfPubeGardens · 02/01/2014 19:25

I haven't had that problem with the gs-h2s Queen. One or two of them have been a bit of a hard suck though - I think the threads might be slightly longer than on my ego batteries as the ones causing a problem have air holes slightly lower down so the airhole is covered by the threads IYSWIM. This could also cause them to not register maybe? You could try pulling down the contact pin. It's not screwed in, just a push in pin so pull down very gently or it'll come out.

QueenStromba · 02/01/2014 19:34

Thanks plenty :)

PlentyOfPubeGardens · 02/01/2014 20:11

I'm really pleased you got something to work, Gorja Smile

I got one of these for christmas for liquids that crack tanks. It's made from pyrex so it doesn't react. It's my favourite clearo so far and, although it's a few extra quid, you can just change the heads or rebuild them.

We have rather a lot of apple pie here already or I'd do you a swap. If you order 30ml from joose juice they send you 60 ml Grin

Interesting stuff on flavours ...

The Importance Of Flavours In Eliquids
A study headed by Dr. Konstantinos Farsalinos finds flavours play a major role in the overall experience of dedicated vapers and support the hypothesis that flavoured eliquids are important contributors in reducing or eliminating the smoking of tobacco cigarettes. Published December 2013.

Queen - I have a fruit mix i love in my iclear 30. I'm not keen on minty flavours in it though for some reason, i think it tastes funny, and i prefer the lemon in the 16 to the 30. Definitely a sweet fruit theme going on with the 30.

Cantabile Haha, My other half prefers a tobacco flavour in the evening especially if he is having a drink, he cant stand fruity/sweet flavours if hes having a lager.
I must find a gingerbread flavour to try.

Can you get any joose juice liquids on amazon? Ive left my bank and my other account doesnt have a debit function, but i have a few quid left from a cashback thing on my amazon account.

Going to read that study.

QueenStromba · 02/01/2014 21:03

Joose Juice take paypal so you could transfer some funds from your bank account to paypal and use that to buy from Joose Juice. They look to me like someone who has bought a load of nicotine and flavourings from elsewhere and are selling them on rather than an actual brand.

PlentyOfPubeGardens · 02/01/2014 21:09

I think that's probably true for the majority of suppliers Queen.

I don't think you can get anything on Amazon or ebay that isn't 0% nicotine.

PlentyOfPubeGardens · 02/01/2014 21:11

But most places seem to take paypal if that's an option.

QueenStromba · 02/01/2014 21:13

Exactly Plenty - the only I know that isn't like that is Flavour Art.

DizzyZebra · 02/01/2014 21:38

F**k me £1.49??? I could have some fun here.

DizzyZebra · 02/01/2014 21:42

My mums due round tomorrow ill get her to order me some with her card :)

QueenStromba · 02/01/2014 21:43

Good plan Dizzy.

DizzyZebra · 02/01/2014 21:54

I have in my shopping basket, Gingerbread, orange cream, citrus punch, key lime, blueberry, and citrus punch.

Exciiiited.

QueenStromba · 02/01/2014 22:26

I've decided to put my favourite fruity flavour (fruits of the forest) in the iclear 30 and put something else in the 16 when it runs out. Thanks for the suggestion Dizzy - I hope you enjoy your JJ flavours.

DizzyZebra · 02/01/2014 22:40

Thankyou :)

How long do they usually take to get to you? It says they are all available from stock

QueenStromba · 02/01/2014 22:47

I've not ordered from Joose Juice before but I've always found vaping suppliers to be really quick to dispatch so I imagine that they wouldn't last too long if they weren't the same. I'll be somewhat surprised if I don't get the stuff I just ordered on Saturday. They've been shut since just before Christmas and have only just reactivated the sales part of the website so presumably they didn't want a build up of orders that they couldn't deal with it in one day.

QueenStromba · 03/01/2014 11:07

My order has already been dispatched Dizzy - you might get yours tomorrow if you order early enough today.

DizzyZebra · 03/01/2014 13:28

Ive just ordered :)

What is steeping? It says to steep them

Insanityismymiddlename · 03/01/2014 13:38

Hi all I am currently on day 4 of vaping I have already saved £16 (baccy) and not smoked 71 cigs.
This is the longest I have quit since I started smoking 13 years ago (except during pregnancy because I had too) and the best thing is I'm not even craving.

Currently vaping on my Evod and have gone a little overkill as I own 3 evods and 2 ce4's as well as 6 different juices with more on order.

Can definitely recommend Joose Juice for their liquids really cheap but great quality and you can choose your own Pg/vg mix and strength too.

The best thing is I don't have to go outside in the rain anymore and I have converted my DP and STBXH as well.

DizzyZebra · 03/01/2014 13:55

Yay insanity, well done!

QueenStromba · 03/01/2014 14:25

Steeping just means don't use it for a week.

QueenStromba · 03/01/2014 14:40

In practise though give it a try if you have a spare clearo and if it tastes alright then carry on vaping it, if not then leave it for a week.

Cantabile · 03/01/2014 15:54

Everything I've ever ordered has surprised me by the speed it arrives in!

Insanity, fantastic! 71 not smoked in a few days!

Plenty, good link. Typical that there actually is research out there and the powers that be totally ignore it. I think, though, that the bit of the proposed legislation about flavours has been dropped?
