I don't see that option anywhere. I do have a bank account. Worst case I can just run down to the store and buy a Visa gift card. There are a lot of flavors I want to try.

After being on and off ecig for the better part of the last 3 years, my advice is get something reliable and spare parts for it. How many times I have had something break on me and next thing I know I go back to analog for a month or six. I've tried the fancy KayFun, TaiFun GT and the vape is great but then there is this day when I'm out of kanthal or I spend 20 minutes trying to fix the leak and I just end up buying a pack of cigs coz I'm tired of having juice in my mouth.

Right now I'm rocking the Pipeline Pro Slim with a simple aerotank. It is a nice $200 vw mod but 100% worth it so far. I can walk with it all day because I know it won't break or leak and this is such a beautiful piece of hardware.

Greeeeat advice lol. I couldn't smoke that blood orange and almost smoked a real cigarette instead of driving to the next town for some juice. I'd be in trouble if I had to wait a few days for a spare part.

and yeah LBR, get some good juices from different vendors. Don't get lured by the up to 50% off when buying large quantities (100ml and more). Buy the smallest samples they have but a ton of them. You won't regret it.

Is that because you can return the unopened ones if you don't like them?

I think he means that you should buy small amounts of many different flavors from different vendors because you will not like many (even most) if them. I probably have thrown away half or more of the juice I've ever bought. When you do find the flavor/brands you like, then you buy them in quantity for cheaper

Get a vv mod and something simple like a protank to start. Figure out if y actually like it. If you do then move into rebuildables and better mods.

An itazte3 vv and a protank will cost u $50-60

I've been using an MVP for the last 4-5 days and haven't craved a real cigarette while using it. I'm amazed at how easy the switch was. I have some iclear 30s's coming in the mail soon and I'll be stocking up on good juice.

I've been watching some mod videos and it looks like something I'll get into eventually.

I got a Veritas clone.

Nothing I've tried can match the flavor this thing produces.

Lots of vapor too, but not quite as much as some other drippers. But still, it's right up there.

Highly recommended.

I heard that they will hold a ton of drops and get a lot of hits before going dry

It does hold a ton of drops. And so far it hasn't leaked.

I filled it with 20+ fat drops and turned it sideways to see if it would leak out of the airhole and nothing happened.

I haven't noticed that it lasts a long time, however. Seems to be about the same as most other RDAs, but I've never kept track so it's just a gut feeling. It probably varies depending on the coil, I'm using a dual vertical build that I copied from this brief tutorial.

I have a couple friends who love their iclear 30s. I'm personally not a fan. I think the airflow sucks for my personal preference. Friends love them partly because the atomizers last weeks before needing replaced.

I can't be the only one that cringes when people refer to Vaping as E-Cigs... thread title needs a change. Using the word Cig gives it a dirty name and I wouldn't be surprised if the tobacco companies started the whole E-Cig name thing to try to lump them in with their products.

Cigarette- a cylindrical roll of finely cut tobacco cured for smoking, considerably smaller than most cigars and usually wrapped in thin white paper.

STOP CALLING THEM E-CIGS.

Bad news guys, we're all going to be crack addicts soon: http://www.foxnews.com/health/2014/0...gs-study-says/
I'm just waiting for the next study that says vaping causes murder and child molestation

I just read that before coming here I like how they use that DARK and SKURRY looking picture of the guy blowing a pure cloud of vapor out of his mouth. So frustrating to see/read **** that puts such a negative view with unfounded claims about vaping.

OMG PEOPLE ARE BLOWING CLOUDS OUT OF THEIR MOUTH WE MUST STOP THIS.

Yeah, same BS as the "study" that found that the level of some toxic metals were higher in Ecigs than in cigarettes. What the study didn't tell you was that the levels of toxic metals found were similar to that of outside air in most cities. This one actually had me worried until I read the ECF thread: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/for...s-exposed.html

This witch hunt never ceases to amaze me.

Vaping could potentially kill big tobacco forever.

They're not going to go down without a fight.

Thanks for the iClear 30s recommendations. There's a noticeable improvement over the 30.

This is one of the most positive articles on vaping I've seen on a major site:http://www.foxnews.com/health/2014/0...tcmp=obnetwork

I'm kinda shocked that the higher ups allowed something like this to be put out there. Progress!

So I still haven't used my copper tobh clone RDA since that guy (the one who was going to sell the hybrid mod and have us test it) questioned the safety of the Chinese copper, has anyone researched anymore into this?

On a side note, I have a copper nemesis from FT that I wasn't using because it started to smell (like pennies) so bad and make my hands smell bad too. I found a decent clear coat that is working pretty well and eliminated the smell totally. I want to put the RDA and the Nemesis together badly but I would rather not go insane from lead poisoning.

The Chinese have been known to add lead to all sorts of products.

They have also been known for selling crappy copper that doesn't weigh right, but I don't think anyone knows exactly what they are 'cutting' it with.

I'd just use a different drip tip on it. You'll still get the benefits of copper without putting your health at risk.

Yeah but the top cap is copper with the base being stainless steel. I'm worried the juice will touch the top cap and then I'll be vaping that.
