Just be very carefull, this is news 4 years out of date, but i had to buy one for mod from top english maker, first one from uk supplier, pushed pin in so far had to take mod apart, second one $1 from china worked perfect, just be careful they fit ok, like I said this is well out of date as not had to use since but worth thinking about.

I've had experiance of not health related but similar claim, it involved a major insurer, a major glossy magazine and me as the one out of pocket, they squirmed fought me then themselves not to pay, end result after long time I got paid, insurance company not happy and magazine bankrupt (not down to my claim). Only details I can give because despite winning I can say no more.

Hi guys Having worked in insurance for many years, I can guarantee you that any claim you try to make in the future based on not declaring something will result in a claim being turned down. While I agree with you, that by the letter of the policy and the FDA your reading is correct, in practice you would end up having your claim turned down, and having to go through a complaints and ombudsman process which can be very time consuming and convoluted (which it will be, if the insurer has anything to do with it, as with many of them it is unwritten company policy), at the end of which you MIGHT have your claim accepted on appeal... The question you need to ask yourself is that at the point of claiming on health insurance, do you really need a second fight on your hands, just when you should be pouring all your energy into fighting a disease or illness? Sorry to be negative, but I've seen the kind of suffering that insurance companies can inflict, given the slightest opportunity or opening... Just my two penneth... I think you just eloquantly backed up what I was trying to say. Thanks MP |

I have long running private health through company, never bothered to inform them I do not smoke anymore, premiums stayed same for years, would only give them oppertunity to turn down a claim, they happy i'm happy. BUT told my GP in 2009 i'd given up, each 6 monthly checkup get asked same question, "your still smoking 20 a day ?" always same awnser I gave up may 2009, ok we'll update records, well done, and do they, of course not, so I dont trust anyone with information about smoker, ex smoker or vapor.

But do you actually need vendor support? Surely its a forum affair and goodies are just an added bonus ... I'm not being contentious, just asking They provide a bunch of raffle prizes and I have won the value of cost of transport or more on both meets I have been to, but they were things I don't want and have given away. It wouldn't bother me if they didn't, but it's nice to win something and some of the prizes would have suited me. I agree with above, no comment on company as not used them, but the raffle adds to the overall evening and I have in the past won stuff that has gone onto good use with new vapors, and this week a member kindly donated his prize to my partner who is just starting out into vaping. I'm sure our meets would be just as good without a sponsor, but it's nice for us and hopefully nice promotion for them, so everyone wins. MP |

I do it all the time but if it's not there I rarely think about it. If it is there however, I find myself chugging on it all day. Mines a safety net in work, awkward customer you either say f...... away or take a big tug and say no problem i'll sort that, thats why mines essential (my excuse), if only my customers vaped life be so easy (until they forgot theirs). LOL MP |

So my 4 turns of 3 amp fuse wire around a cocktail stick is not really the way to go  ? Sorry could not resist that and only joking. You guys really study this stuff, makes me feel a bit inadequate as a 6 year vapor lol. Seriously this thread has made good reading, you can see that some like me just vape, others treat it as a hobby and exploration, full credit both sides, thats driving vaping more mainstream. Keep on vaping, clouding or whatever your delight MP |

Said I would not reply, but going to say thanks for replies, makes it clearer now (although not if your sitting next to someone using one for huge clouds lol), at least I know i'm not missing out, as those setups not my cup of tea.
Cheers all.

This is a simple question that'd appreciate reading the awnsers and opinions to, I will not reply but thank anyone that adds to thread.
Last night saw guy using huge mod, look 60w he said, was not his so could not question.
So question, why huge watts, my trusty mods go to 15w but never get near that as happy at 9.5, is there a point ? am i being naive ? am I missing something ? have i got to buy one ?
Many thanks for replies

I'm not sure what that kit is, but general rule seems to be dont use iphone chargers, the amps are too high, i'd have a search through the forum on subject if I was you as lots been written, and at the end of the day it's your house that burns down. Sorry cannot help more.
