Since most vapers change e-liquids at least once during the course of a day’s vaping, Totally Wicked has provided a tank atomizer perfectly suited to our needs, allowing you to fill up with two different e-liquids and change between (or combine) them by simply twisting a selection dial.

One of the most commonly heard criticisms of e-cigs is that they just allow nicotine addiction to continue in some other form. Yes, some vapers do continue to consume nicotine, and nicotine is a highly addictive drug. There is no denying that; it’s why people smoke cigarettes in the first place!

An underlying distrust of anything resembling smoking leads some of those in tobacco control to claim that we don’t even need e-cigarettes, and to look for any reason to cast doubt on the value of vaping. But the reason we really do need vaping becomes obvious as soon as you consider things from the perspective of a smoker.

The e-cigarette industry is expected to generate annual sales of one billion dollars in the next few years. It’s still in its infancy as an industry, and there are several important organizations that will likely shape how electronic cigarettes come to develop. Prominent regulatory bodies and industry organizations will determine how the innovative technology will integrate into society, and these are our top five influential organizations in the industry. Much of the important work goes on behind closed doors, but these voices consistently pop up in the public domain.

According to the medication’s website, 9 million people in the US have been prescribed Chantix; a non-nicotine quit smoking medicine operating cheerfully under FDA approval. In comparison to e-cigarettes, the latter part of that sentence alone will be evidence enough to convince some people that the drug is the better of the two options. After all, FDA approval means it’s safe, right?

October has seen the release of some great mods, including one from legendary manufacturer ProVape, and some notable dripping atomizers, RTAs and sub-ohm tanks, with plenty of innovative design decisions thrown into the mix along the way. So let’s look at what October had to bring.

In the US Air Force, e-cigarettes are treated in exactly the same way as tobacco cigarettes. That means if any personnel want to reduce the harm they’re doing to themselves through their nicotine addiction, they aren’t allowed to unless they stand in designated areas with smokers, who are pumping in excess of 7,000 chemicals out into the air. The fact that the e-cigarette users are releasing primarily water vapor doesn't matter in the eyes of the Air Force, and as if this wasn't enough, the anti e-cig efforts they started in 2010 have been redoubled.

They may be designed as a safer method of getting the nicotine you crave, but there are nicotine free electronic cigarettes on offer from many manufacturers. The reasons for this are simple, although it may seem confusing and counter-productive at first. Offering different levels of nicotine in the cartridges is commonplace, and the majority of manufacturers do have a nicotine-free option. The companies don’t claim that electronic cigarettes can help users quit, but research into the area does suggest that they can. As a result, many people use e-cigs for that reason, and a nicotine free e-cigarette is a useful tool for those trying to quit.

There are many examples of unavoidably normal things being used to criticize vaping specifically. In everyday life, the potential problems relating to them are roundly ignored, but when you toss e-cigarettes into the equation, all of a sudden they’re a cause for panic and outrage. Here are five examples

Scam companies and bogus free trial offers are unfortunately common in the world of e-cigs, and if you want to avoid falling prey to one of them there are several important tips you should keep in mind.

Here’s an introduction to solar-powered e-cigs and chargers – many of which can charge your phone, iPod and other devices too!

The main improvements are likely to take the form of improved manufacturing processes – to keep things like the heavy metal content of vapor to an absolute minimum – but in some areas, e-cigs are still in need of some high-tech innovation. Here are the top five technologies we think e-cigs are missing.

Let’s get it out there. Some e-cigs look like robot penises. This fact leads many smokers to declare flatly that e-cigs are too bulky, too much to carry around and too awkward to ever serve as a replacement for the carcinogen-laden alternative.

We’ve spent plenty of time tackling anti-vaping myths since the site got started, but it isn’t just those opposed to vaping that often spout mistruths or plain misleading statements. In fact, there are quite a few pro-vaping myths that we should stop repeating if we want to be taken seriously.

If you haven't tried an e-liquid subscription in the past and are looking for some new flavors, or if you've tried one but want something more refined, Vapor Liq might just be the answer.

Due to many public restrictions, some vapers have turned to Stealth Vaping as a way to vape in public places without being spotted.

The media feeds on negativity. A story about trace amounts of a carcinogen found in an electronic cigarette is much more likely to be covered extensively and disseminated into public knowledge than ones which show them to be no more dangerous than nicotine gum or patches.

Kangertech’s new 200 W and 120 W temperature control versions of the Kbox are now available to pre-order, pushing the power output well beyond that offered by the original or the Kbox Mini while still keeping the price pretty low – with a recommended retail price of just $64.90 for the 200 W version.
