URGENT ALERT for New York vapers: E-liquid ban has passed the Senate, moves on to the Assembly
This is an important Tweet from Gregory Conley.
And for the record, I hate that this site has had a fair amount of activism and CTAs on it recently as it was never designed for that reason, but the shit is getting real folks and I’m going to do my best to keep you aware of the big issues and CTAs.
Please read THIS, then ACT and SHARE!

Hi Phil,
I was directed to your site from Scott’s (igetcha69) and have just spent all day
working through most of the index. I thought the humorous videos were just
hilarious. I was a two pack a day man and started smoking menthol cigarettes in1969.
I finally gave up last year ( after two collapsed lungs and finally a stroke). I
started like most people with Sky Cigs (cigarette lookalike) I struggled on with
these for a month before throwing them in the bin and moving to an Apollo Ego. This
too failed and I started smoking again. Then I got an iItaste SVD and I was hooked.
After watching Scott and yourself on utube I got a Kayfun Lite and a Nemesis clone
and build my own microcoils and cotton. Now I am really hooked and after some time
at the gym bought an itaste VTR. I struggled with finding a realistic tobacco
flavour for both cigarettes and pipe (yes I also smoke a pipe) until I found Tjuice
(Primo Verde for pipe and Ice Queen for cigarettes) I now have a new hobby !
I just had to write and tell you how good and comprehensive your website is (I use
it as my reference page now) and how much I enjoy your videos (you tell it like it
is)
Happy Vaping
Graham

NEW ELEAF PROTOTYPE ATOMIZER DISTRIBUTED BY JOYETECH USA
Guess I called it when I said, in the eVic Supreme video, that perhaps one of the reasons the 510 connector came out was because of hybrid possibilities.
Didn’t take long!
I was handed this prototype by Joyetech USA in Miami. Sure enough, take the 510 connector off of it, and the top ring and 510 connector off of the eVic … a hybrid!
Very clearly based on the Kayfun design with a few small differences. Those differences are going to make filling it a pain in the buttocks as you may HAVE to use the fill hole on the bottom, which will require a screwdriver, something I’m not a fan off. NO TOOLS PLEASE!
Unlike the Kayfun in which the top cap screws onto the rest of the body, this design holds the glass in place by the top cap screwing onto the top of the chimney, so as soon as you remove the top cap, the glass is just sitting on the bottom o-ring with nothing holding it in place. One wrong move… JUICETASTROPHY!
It’s got an interesting build in found in this one and at a surprising .6 ohms One that, if it performs the same way my vertical build did in the Kayfun, I won’t be happy with, but Ill give it a shot.

DISGUSTING…
My heart goes out to the folks from La Vape Shop in Canada this morning.
Someone threw a molotov cocktail into one of their stores, and it happened to be the one they had my picture in. I could care less about the picture, but I’m so saddened and disturbed by this news. Luckily no one was hurt and they plan on re-opening right next door tomorrow morning. Good for you!
Best of luck in getting back on your feet and I do hope they catch the criminal who did this.
Please offer them your support.

Dear Phil (or Pete, as a magazine seems to call you),
I don’t usually randomly send emails to complete strangers, but in this case I felt the need to thank you for your videos, they’ve truly changed my life!
Short story: I’m a Dutch guy, living in Romania. Smoked for 20 years, tried the analog e-cigs, but hated them. Tried them again, still hated them. I think I tried 20 times, at least. Every time after a few days I decided that this was not for me.
Stumbled upon your videos, and it’s like a whole new world opened up. Spent a week watching 30-40 of your videos, and figured “yeah, this might actually work for me”.
Problem was: here in Romania I could not find much choice in vaping stuff. Also, ordering online was not really an option, since the mail men here usually keep interesting foreign packages for themselves. Fun stuff 🙂So, based on your stories, I took a flight to Holland (ok, also to visit some family), but mostly to do some shopping. Got a Vamo, some aerotanks, a bunch of liquids, and I LOVE it.
Not smoked in 7 weeks now, and don’t even remotely feel the urge. I see people smoke and think “that actually looks weird”.
Anyway, I’m sure you get tons of emails every day, you probably won’t even read this. But if you do, no need to reply, I just wanted to express my gratitude to a random stranger, to at least let him know that he actually has the power to change lives. And that’s a truly amazing thing!
Thanks muchly 🙂

I just wanted to share my story as well. I’m sure you get a lot of these and I’ve read all of the ones you have posted by others. I started smoking when I was in 6th grade and never stopped. I’m 31 now and have been vaping for over 4 months now. I had been in a lot of trouble health wise, with lung and Chest infections. Several courses of antibiotics I was just in really bad shape. I decided to give this a try cause I was at the end of my rope. Being 31 I shouldn’t have even been in this spot. My first device I picked up was an mvp 2.0. And two juices. I haven’t touched a cigarette in months. Threw my inhalers out and I’m up and at em again. I switched mods to the dna 30 hana modz and gave my grandmother my mvp. She was a 2 carton a week smoker. The past 2 weeks she’s dropped down to 2 packs and dropping quickly. Your intuitive videos and knowledge has been a huge help. I just wanted to say that for someone being all the way in the state of maine the options are small. You have opened my eyes.
Thanks so much. Keep it up man.

Comment: I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for the time, effort,
and especially the information you put out there to the vaping community. I am 34,
live in New Jersey, and I have been a smoker for 17 years. I started vapeing about
a year ago, and cut my habit from a carton a week to a pack a week, but I was never
satisfied with my equipment. I finally came across your videos on youtube, and was
blown away by how little I actually knew. Based alot on what you have talked about,
and based on my own research, I was able to find what works for me and I have been a
non smoker now for 5 weeks. Even though my choices were not your favorite products
(the innokin vv version 3 and the mvp2), sharing your knowledge and recommendations
helped me quit for good. You are doing good work; I thank you, my wife thanks you,
and my 2 year old son thanks you. Vape on!
