Pennsylvania falls to tobacco lobbies. NSFW

Well, vapes have been made illegal in Pennsylvania. That is all but the ones linked to the tobacco lobbies. Great to have our freedoms stolen once again. This state is trash and just continues to decompose.

Question ❓ Is this a good device to switch to from disposables? NSFW

Post image
7 Upvotes

Looking for my first real device non disposable lol, have been looking at this device and its reviews but why not ask the Reddit wizards, looking for a device that a tight airflow similar to geek bars but could also be pretty open, along with id like to step up the wattage I’m thinking double a geek bar so a 50 watt drive would do it but I’d go as far up to this 80 w device eventually I’d like to get into bigger box mods but starting out I’d like a good drive that can do up to 60-80 watts, preferably built in battery but doesn’t really matter, I like pods that are more flat rather than round hence why I’d rather stick with a pod type of device rather than staring out looking at some more expensive and higher experience vapes (bigger box mods), so anyway if anyone could give me some pointers on devices and would this be a good starter device? Let me know thank you.

Mommy Cake By Drops - Review By Ben28 NSFW

Post image
5 Upvotes

Mommy Cake, from the "Artisans Selection" line by Drops, is the liquid I'm bringing you today. It promises a fluffy sponge cake base with a layer of lemon, lime, and meringue, all resting on a biscuit crust. Let's see what this liquid delivers in aroma and flavor. This test is possible thanks to Vapeo24 you can check out their page to learn more about them and the liquid.

According to the manufacturer: Mommy Cake perfectly captures the essence of an authentic traditional lemon tart, fusing a delicate biscuit base and a tender sponge cake with a creamy lemon layer, subtle touches of fresh lime, and an irresistible sweet meringue finish. An elegant and balanced pastry profile, full of nuances, offering a smooth, enveloping experience faithful to the classic dessert that inspires it.

Aroma-wise, I immediately get the scent of that sponge cake your mom or grandma used to make with lemon or orange zest—it’s exactly the smell it had while baking in the oven. You can perfectly pick up the aroma of the base (the sponge cake, in this case) combined with the lemon cream on top, while there's something refreshing giving it a distinct touch, which here is the lime. The meringue adds a sugary scent, making it clear this won't be a gentle liquid on your coils.

Flavor-wise, it stays right on track. On the inhale, you get a clear sponge cake flavor along with that characteristic lime freshness—though it's not the typical cooling effect of a pod liquid, but rather an ingredient meant to provide that specific nuance. On the palate, the sponge cake stands out even more, almost like the semi-crunchy outer crust, and the lemon cream is heavily pronounced. The meringue is nearly imperceptible, although I think it's the main source of the liquid's sweetness. On the exhale, practically all the ingredients blend together.

Overall, Mommy Cake is a highly accurate, nostalgic bakery vape where the rich sponge cake and zesty citrus perfectly hit the mark. While the meringue fades into the background as a sweetener that might be tough on your coils, its deeply comforting, oven-baked profile makes it a fantastic all-day vape for dessert lovers.

Discussion 🗨️ 🇫🇷 From France with love ❤️ NSFW

35 Upvotes

I live in France, which is a blessed country when it comes to vaping (for now, fingers crossed!). No crazy tax or Big-Tobacco-friendly ban, the only market-wide restriction on regular products is that vape sites cannot advertise (even by mailing-lists). And as French regulations (AFNOR) are even stricter than the EU ones we only get quality products with no insane additives. And, lo and behold, no puffs and no juice with more than 20 mg/ml nicotine. The only ban in France is the sanest one!

Most sites have a loyalty program (every 5 or 10 euros grant €1 rebate on a next order) and free shipping past €30/35. And they all have a lot of choice from beginner material to maniac hardware. Juices, consumables, DIY, pods, rebuildables, mods, you name it.

Of course it's not perfect (hint: it never is!). Puff vendors have found a loophole and sell "false refillables" like Wilo (2ml tank, 10ml bottle glued to the vape, vape locks up when the bottle is empty). But they struggle selling those because their target customers prefer buying pod systems with pre-filled pods. And even these lo-fi products must comply with the strict AFNOR regulations.

The French market is protected by FIVAPE, an Independent Trade Association. It represents the entire supply chain of the French vaping ecosystem, from e-liquid labs to local vape shops. Unlike some vaping groups in the US that might include or accept funding from major tobacco corporations, FIVAPE has a strict independence rule. You cannot be a member if your business is tied to the traditional cigarette industry. They represent the 85% of the French market that is entirely independent.

We're lucky enough to have a government that encompasses vaping in a "Public Health & Consumer-First Approach". In France, vaping is widely viewed by doctors and authorities as a legitimate smoking cessation tool (harm reduction). FIVAPE doesn't lobby just for corporate profits; they heavily focus on product safety standards (they co-created the first ISO/AFNOR quality standards for e-liquids in the world) and advocate for vapers' rights to access flavors as a way to stay away from smoking.

Think of it as the equivalent of standard US Trade Groups, but highly influential; a hybrid between the VTA (Vapor Technology Association) and a guild, but with no ties to tobacco industry and a much stronger direct access to the French Parliament, as proven by their success in killing the 2026 vape tax. 💪

I'm not posting this to gloat. I'm thankful for how the situation has turned so far, and I'm hoping France can lead by example and improve other countries' policies. Stay strong wherever you are, and nag your reps with constructive suggestions. We are the proof it can work, let's put it to good use.

With love, from France.

Help 🙏 Help request with 3mg nicotine no flavour NSFW

0 Upvotes

Hi vape experts

Switched to vape from smoking about a year ago (disposables) and the past few months to vaporesso. All good at the higher nicotine 10-20 mg but since going lower to 6 and now 3mg I'm having trouble. My juice loses all flavour after a few puffs.. still getting a cloud though.

I just got a brand new xros 6 and still the same problem.

Using 0.6omh coils. Also tried the 0.4 that came with the device but same thing..

What am I doing wrong? Juice ratio? Last two juices were 30/70 and 50/50

Any advice appreciated!

Making coils with SS316L Fused Clapton Wire NSFW

I normally use mesh (ss316L 150 from Vandy Vape), but thought I would venture into wire. I got a spool of Vandy Vape SS fused clapton wire at 24ga*2 (=) +32ga. Could someone please explain this like I'm 5? The coil calculator is a bit intimidating for just starting out. I don't know if it helps but I have a Dead Rabbit 4 for wire coils.

some tips with Elfbar TE30K NSFW

0 Upvotes

hi guys! so, I have a high preference for Elfbar Ice King 40K or Nic King 40K, specially because I feel the smoke is "heavier", something like that. My last one is out of juice, and when I went out to buy another one, there was just some flavours I absolutely hate, I really prefer Elfbar but I'm very open to other brands, but even other brands had some flavours that didn't click with me. so I ended up buying Elfbar TE30K, because I used to smoke this one about 2 years ago. But now it's just... meh. the smoke feels so light, I really don't feel that pleasure of heavy smoke from Ice King or Nic King 40K. I am already using my TE30K on boost mode, but still feels so meh and too much light. I'm waiting a few days so I can search again at the stores nearby i live (i am from Brazil).

But I'm wondering if there's any sort of "hack" or some MacGyver stuff to make the smoke feels more heavy? lol full battery and 96% of juice right now

thank you all in advance and sorry for the broken english

Help 🙏 Looking to switch from Float Mello disposables to a refillable pod system — is the Caliburn G5 a good choice? NSFW

4 Upvotes

I’m looking to stop buying disposables and switch to a refillable pod system. I’ve been using Float Mello disposables (clear), and I’m looking for something with comparable flavor, a satisfying draw, and good vapor production.
The Uwell Caliburn G5 is what I’ve been looking into, but I’m definitely open to other suggestions if there’s something better suited to what I’m looking for. I used to have a Smok Novo using salt nic, so I’m somewhat familiar with pod systems, but it’s been a while.
One of my more unusual preferences is that I’d really like a device where the e-liquid isn’t very visible from the outside. I know that might limit my options, but I prefer the look of a more concealed pod rather than being able to see the juice level clearly.
I’m also really interested in e-liquid recommendations and would love to hear what people enjoy using in their pod
systems! So:

Are there other pod systems I should look into that are better/more comparable , especially ones with a more concealed-looking pod?

What e-liquids do you recommend for pod systems, and what flavors have you found to be the best?

What VG/PG ratio do you recommend for the Caliburn G5's 0.6 and 0.9 pods? Do you use nic salts or freebase with them?

THANK YOU

Question ❓ Is Beard/The One Brand Still Around? NSFW

0 Upvotes

I’m in CO (from overprotective CA) and have been stocking up on juice. I can’t find a store that sells Beard/The One brand; at one store, the cashier said she wasn’t sure it was still around anymore. I loved the Lemon Crumble Cake and Tobaccocino flavors so, so much, and no other brands have anything similar.
