Going To My 1st Vape Convention Today

What to do at a Vaping Convention?

Never been to a vaping convention. Plan to go but need some suggestions.
What are your favorite things to do? What should you bring other than what you plan to vape with/on?
Any suggestions of the best way to have fun?
How many hours do you devote to the convention other than visiting the booths?  

I just got back from VapeXpo in Ann Arbor Michigan. I had a really good time and met some great people in the industry who I socialize with on my local Facebook groups. I'm already looking forward to Vape in the Fort at the end of August.

I'm kind of kicking myself in the behind for not jumping on a few more deals but overall I think I made out with a nice little score. I don't think I spent more then $60 with another $5 donation to The Vaping Militia.

I finally found a ejuice I love..... I go away for a day, come back, and now I can't taste any ejuice o.o so it's not from over vaping.... I'm a non smoker so I know that its not my taste recovering.... I'm concerned because I really enjoyed my vape. Help  

Im currently on vacation in a European country where it is illegal to sell ejuice containing nicotine.

I of course have my vape gear and my own ejuice with me, as that is not illegal.

The current anti-vape hysteria and fake news is not just contained to the US, as I have been reading about it and seeing it on the news here also.

With the way its being reported about in the news, youd think there was some huge epidemic happening, and vaping is the worst thing to come along since ebola or aids.

Ive gotten mutiple evil eyes from people here because I continue to vape like I always have, and I also make sure to blow extra super sized clouds whenever I encounter anybody who is giving me a disapproving look or stare, while I am smiling back at them and vaping.

As for the current fake news hysteria and propaganda, it is my understanding that the cases involve a substance that is not allowed to be mentioned on this forum.

I happen to know a lot about that substance and I also know that there is an awful lot of counterfeit and homemade carts which are on the market, and yes, some of them can definitely be dangerous, as all sorts of suspicious and dangerous ingredients can be included. Nobody has any idea what is inside those counterfeit carts

That however has nothing at all to do with vaping, or with people who vape and use regular ejuice.

If somebody drinks gasoline, then yeah, they might feel unwell.

As for me, Ill continue to laugh at fake news and the people who believe in it, and Ill continue to vape just like I always have.  

If I take softer but longer puffs will I consume less ejuice than I would if I take harder but shorter puffs? Also, how much of a difference does the amount of volts affect the amount of ejuice used?
I use an ego battery and have 4 air flow options, I like using 4.2V (my coil is 1.8Ohms) and the max airflow but this is not only tearing a hole in my wallet its practically making it disappear.
I only need enough volts required to vaporize the nicotine that I want (I'm not sure but I believe I'm using 46MG/10Ml nicotine ejuice, if I upgrade to higher level nicotine ejuice containers will the power and/or airflow requirements go down?
Finally, if I start using the 1.6Ohm coil (the only other coil the Nautilus is compatible with as far as I know.) will that make a difference in power consumption required to get the same effect?  

Hello I really need some advice
I buy ejuice online but some juices are fine on my throat and others are too harsh and hurt my throat

I’m using a vapresso gen s with wotofo serpent ii mod

is there something I can add to store/online bought ejuice to soothe the throat hit ? I believe all the juices are 70vg/30pg. I know higher PG means stronger throat hit. Maybe i just need to buy max vg juices?

but really if there is some kind of thing I could add to the juice to fix it that would be better. The reason is I buy ejuice online and I don’t want to throw away and waste money just because of the throat hit.
Any suggestions ??

Hey guys, I'm sure this topic pops up quite often round these parts but since everyone's a little different I thought I'd make my own thread

I, myself, have been vaping for 2 years now and I absolutely love it. I'm 26 and I smoked for about 7 years at around 15 cigarettes a day, and then spent about a year and a half transitioning exclusively to vaping. I'm now happy to say I've been smoke free for nearly 6 months thanks to my vape

My aunt has been a smoker for much much longer than I was, around 25 years I believe, and she goes through more than a pack a day (possibly 2). I'm going to visit her in a couple days and I plan on bringing all my old vape hardware for her to check out, and we're gonna hit a b&m as well. Since this forum has done a great deal to help me in so many aspects of vaping, I was hoping you could help me to help her by answering some questions, giving some of your opinions, etc. In framing your answers, it might be important to know that as of now she's pretty lukewarm to the idea. She doesn't reject and is willing to try it, but she's skeptical it'll work for her.

First: from someone who's done this with a serious heavy smoker before preferably, what's the best way to go about this in your opinion? What worked for you? The last thing I would wanna do is overwhelm or do something that turned her off to the possibility of vaping.

Second: what is the comparison of cigarettes to ejuice. Everyone who doesn't know much about vaping seems to want to know: how much ejuice equals one cigarette/one pack/etc. At this point I don't care much, and I never really did, I found something that works for me and that's what matters. But I'm sure she'll want to know. So lets say, for this questions purposes, around how many cigarettes would a 15ml, 6mg bottle of juice equate to?

Third: do you think it's worth investing in a set up more advanced than a basic ego twist/cartomizer initially with the thought that something higher quality might have a better chance to work long term for her? I'm thinking something like an istick/atlantis set up might be a good way to go since they're so popular and replacement atomizers will be easy to pick up online or in a store.

Fourth: I live in southern California, but my aunt is in Leander, Texas, which is around an hour drive from Austin. Can anyone suggest a quality b&m that we can go check out? I've been to enough b&ms myself to know if it's a quality shop or not, and I'd feel much better about her chance to succeed with vaping if I found a nice shop with great customer service to leave her with. we'll likely go into Austin while I'm there and it'd be fun to check out some shops there so feel free to suggest Austin shops (in sure there's a lot) but that would be a mission for her on a regular basis. Something in Leander that she can frequent would be best.

I know this is horribly long so thank you to anyone who reads it all and replies to help me out with any part of this. I love my aunt very much and I know her want to quit is there. She just needs to find something that'll work and I really hope it can be vaping. Thank you again.  

More ejuice with less nicotine sub ohm,or less ejuice with more nicotine and using pod system?
