What a fantastic crowd!! It's an honour to be part of this forum, Chrissie has created something she can be really proud of

If you screw the plynth snugly back up under the vivi once attached, it also gives a little added strength

Oh! stop faffing about han and grab yourself a mini vivi nova simplicity, efficiency, cheap as chips. And I have tried a fair few alternatives...they simply work.

When/if you get to the jittery stage, just chug away, your body will tell you when it's had enough.
The main habit to break now is the "rush" you get with that first one in the morning, you won't ever get that again, but don't miss it, because that was the carbon monoxide hitting your brain, nasty!!
The nic is more subtle, a little slower, but every bit as satisfying once it gets there, in a healthier way

None in Paris or India, but heaps in Bulgaria using both mods and lookalikes.
They sell/advertise e-cigs in the cafe/bar in Sofia departure area, did not see them so no idea what model it was.
They sell lookalikes in Paris CDG duty free, never saw anyone using them.
I vape EVERYWHERE, I'm discreet, not secretive, I don't billow out plumes of vape all over the shop but I do leave it on my table or on the bar in front of me.
Waiters and barmen are often intrigued and ask what it is, which is why I'm discreet as I can't be arsed talking to complete strangers when I'm trying to talk to my wife, friend, colleague or contemplating my navel, no-one has ever asked me to stop.

Hi all been crazy busy so unable to contribute much but have always used AAEC as my reference point, best board on the net! great to see all the old faces and lots of new...
Meant to post on this topic before as the health aspect is important/a concern to us all and we are here to support each other.
My experience:
A few months back I girded my loins and attacked a job I had been putting off for years, swapping the entire contents of furniture between some holiday apts I have in Bulgaria.
Hired a monster van, just went and got stuck in.
I took with me some purchased premix, I think 70/30% PG-VG, not sure, the vendor calls it BM-1.
Anyway, job done and home, I started getting terrible aches around the elbow joints, it felt just like I had been overdoing it with free weights in the gym, so put it down to the lumping of the furniture.
It would not go away so I started suspecting either the vaping or "GASP" the fact I'm starting to rock on a bit
I knew nothing about the lactic acid/PG effect but as soon as I googled into it I realised that's EXACTLY what I ws feeling, just like I'd overdone it in the gym=lactic acid production.
Sooo... the only PG I vape now is to use up my stock of flavours and concentrated nic, keeping the ratios minimal I have more or less alleviated the aches, I will eventually move over to all VG.
Get a wee bit phlegmy, no doubt due to the consisitency of VG but nothing like during my "stinkie" days.
Just my experience, hope it helps anyone else who's getting the aches.
That's over 15 months for me without a fag now, brilliant! Best thing I have ever done! Even if the s!#ts did come after us with their "sin taxes" I would grudgingly pay so as not to put another fag in my mouth, ruin my health and stink.
Vape on peeps...
Scoots.

I would register as a non smoker, I do recall something in a newspaper years ago about a widow getting a reduced life insurance pay out as her husband had smoked.
I dropped the better 3/4's at the American hospital here last week for her annual work medical, pouring with rain I waited in the car, it was tragic to see a constantly changing small group outside in their dressing gowns smoking.
I'm not being condescending, I remember doing the same thing myself the first time I was in with malaria, now I realise how I too must have looked, sad.
