How to recharge a Puff Bar?

Image
A Puff Bar is a disposable electronic cigarette. And the quality varies between manufacturers. In fact, a discharged battery is the number one reason people throw away their puff bar. However, there is still an average of 25% liquid inside. The absurdity is that the batteries inside the Puff Bars are not disposable batteries. These are rechargeable batteries with dozens of rechargeable cycles available. These are also lithium-ion batteries and therefore, we end up with thousands of pieces of lithium in nature. The technique that I propose to you allows both to recharge your battery, but also your liquid. What not to do when recharging your Puff Bar You have plenty of videos that tell you how to recharge a Puff Bar. They’re going to dismantle the puff, then they’re going to take a phone charger, cut the jack plug. They will thus have two bare wires and they will connect the first to the positive part and the other to the negative part of the battery. Why should you never do this?! On t

Vaping in China: What will happen with the new measures

We have preliminary information on what will be the face of Chinese vaping under Beijing’s new regulations. These new rules are set by the State Tobacco Monopoly Administration (SMTA), the body that manages the entire tobacco and tobacco industry in China. Among the new rules: Only pre-filled and closed pods will be allowed throughout Chinese territory Only nicotine derived from tobacco is allowed The purity of the nicotine should not be less than 99% Taxes for making vape devices will have to be paid daily Foreign companies will not be able to sell vaping devices in China unless licensed Vape makers encouraged to expand their overseas markets It is Chinese protectionism, which has made its power and wealth, that we see at work in these rules. The fact that throughout China only pre-filled and sealed pods will be allowed, ensures that the Chinese government is enjoying 100% vaping . It is he who will supply the manufacturers with nicotine, and synthetic nicotine is prohibited. Normal,

What will be the face of vaping industry in 2022?

The year 2021 ends with a field of ruin for vaping. 2021 gave us the opportunity to see the destruction of the American vaping with the ban on deliveries by USPS, but also the multiple vaping laws. Systematic and automatic PMTA rejections for any vaping product except Big Tobacco. The first half of 2021 was dominated by the shortage of raw materials like PG, VG and nicotine. The demand for nicotine had exploded, especially because of Chinese vape makers who had decided that the vape trend in 2021 would be pre-filled disposable pods. What a disgusting vape for all that we can do with it. 2021 was a year of transition, of disillusionment, but also of stagnation. The crisis among Chinese vape manufacturers, due to the closure of many vape shops and the decline of the American vaping, has created a concentration of the sector with the big mammoths who have bought lots of small companies. In Europe, the year 2021 has been dominated by the shadow of TPD with the ban on flavors, massive taxa

The legalization of vaping by the Chinese government is a good thing

Image
The Chinese government has decided to end recess by including vaping in Chinese tobacco laws. The morons who do not know how China works probably think that vaping is banned in China … Well, everyone will calm down. Because initially, this regulation of electronic cigarettes will take time. It is estimated that the effects of legalizing vaping will take effect after the second half of 2022. What is the Chinese government asking of vaping companies? At the moment, there are no specific details on the criteria to be met. But we have common sense standards on safety, the protection of minors and above all, the reliability of businesses. And that’s what’s interesting. Because today, the Chinese vaping industry is a Wild West where anyone can create the products they want without meeting any standards. In fact, anyone can set up a vaping company in a matter of days, make crappy pods, sell them by the million, and disappear into the wild . This is what the Chinese government wants to regul

Psilocybin: What you need to know

Image
Psilocybin could be reprogrammed soon according to an announcement by Boris Johnson, thereby legalizing its medical use. This policy shift would place the UK alongside a number of other jurisdictions around the world that have legalized or are considering legalizing the substance; however, there are many who may not have heard of the psilocybin or its potential health benefits and we tell you all. What is psilocybin? Psilocybin is a psychedelic substance found in a small number of mushrooms, often called “magic mushrooms”. These mushrooms have become popular because they are widely associated with recreational drug use , hippie culture, and anti-establishment groups. There is comparatively little awareness of the health and therapeutic potential of the substance. What is a psychedelic? Psychedelics are a class of hallucinogenic drugs capable of triggering alternate or non-ordinary states of consciousness. These experiences can involve hallucinations, including psychological, visual, an

Enter the resistance of the vape

We tried, we did everything they asked. We obeyed all their laws, even though we knew it was shit. And they don’t want to know anything. They want to ban vaping by all means. They want to continue to bow down to Big Pharma, continue to pocket Big Tobacco’s delicious taxes, and they want to remain fundamentalist anti-vape puritans. They don’t want to listen to reason. I think it’s time to get into the vaping resistance, to become resistance in our own way. They don’t want a legal sector that brings money to the state? So let’s create an underground and completely clandestine network, spiraling out of control. It was the case with vaping during its early years and it worked well. Vape has spread despite the demonization of the media, by word of mouth. In all countries where vaping is prohibited, create local networks. Use platforms like Whatsapp or Telegram to create informal groups. Nicotine is the sinews of war in this vape. If every group, in every group, can secure regular deliveries

The Simpsons and anti-vaping propaganda

The Simpsons and Southpark are popular series. I like both, even if I don’t follow them closely, because we have other things to fuck apart from spending our days following these shows. Yesterday I had the opportunity to watch an episode of The Simpsons on vaping, which aired in 2015, this is the 20th episode of the 26th season titled Let’s Go Fly a Coot . The Simpsons have lost some of their quality over the past few years and this one is no exception. The episode revolves around Bart trying to vape, after a Dutch cousin of Milhouse made him want to vape. The vaping is represented by an electronic cigarette, something in the shape of a real fag. We can understand such a lack of knowledge about vaping, since the episode dates from 2015 and at the time, the Cigalikes were the most common models. But at no point does The Simpsons talk about smoking cessation, at no time does it indicate its effectiveness in quitting smoking . It’s all about the poison and it’s a trick to get kids to smok

Book release: The Inconvenient Vaping

I am announcing the release of my book, The Inconvenient Vaping: Understanding the political and ideological issues against vaping . This book is a concentrate of everything you need to know about the current anti-vaping. Why governments are against vaping, why science is forging fake studies all day long to demolish vaping. If you are new to vaping or want to know more about it, then this book will help you understand that electronic cigarettes are at the heart of a huge battle. This book is not for those new to vaping, it is a political and critical book against organizations and governments that profit the most from smoking. He returns in particular to the main pseudo-scandals of vaping such as the case of diacetyl or EVALI. He also talks about the corruption of science and organizations like the WHO. I think this type of book was lacking in vaping literature and I hope I contributed to my modest extent. English not being my native language, this book, which was originally published

To the anti-vaping assholes of Canada

It is difficult to take Canada seriously. People who talk about caribou and maple syrup still show signs of civilizational fatigue. But when we talk about the health authorities, then we reach heights of stupidity that are difficult to reach, even among the most degenerate of Mongolians. So Health Canada, which manages health in this wonderful country, has decided to ban e-liquid flavors and limit nicotine to 20 mg. The usual excuse for these assholes is to fight vaping among young people. Knowing that vaping does not cause any disease, is not toxic and the only effect is that the teenager will look like a locomotive. But you can’t expect honesty from Canada and a Trudeau who is used to matching his socks to his costume. Since CETA, the free trade agreement between Europe and Canada, the latter has been lying face down in front of the Europeanist authorities, copying and pasting all the directives. But after all, between corrupt monkeys, it’s no wonder. We also avoid mentioning the fac

Sourcemore, new victim of the Paypal ban on vaping

Paypal’s ban on vaping continues . Currently, hundreds of vape sites, which relied on Paypal, have been beheaded. FastTech, Everzon, the British sites, we have a real Paypal cabal which is directed against vaping . Knowing that in the United States, there is still no law that prohibits vaping. This time it’s Sourcemore’s turn whose Paypal account has been frozen . Its funds have been blocked for 180 days and this is a real bottleneck for a site where the majority of customers rely on Paypal. Because if the account was suspended, but the owner could recover the funds, then it would still be bitchy, but acceptable. Here, it’s a big chunk of a site’s cash flow that gets stuck for 3 months , an eternity in a market as fast as vaping. Sourcemore is a vaping site whose particularity is that its prices can be very reduced compared to its competitors. Its main drawback is that its delivery times are really long, especially for pre-orders. But its catalog is really complete and you can find mo

Alternatives to Paypal for vaping

With Paypal banning vaping with all its might, vape shops must have a few alternatives to Paypal under their belt. Even if you’re not impacted by the Paypal ban, a good e-commerce site should have a spare or two in case it gets stuck. Skrill Skrill is undoubtedly the main alternative for vaping to Paypal. One of the reasons is that this is a company based in UK and it is very pro-vape. The same goes for Payoneer. However, in its terms of use, Skrill prohibits tobacco products, but I think vaping can pass. The big advantage of Skrill is that it offers good solutions for merchants. You can integrate them on your site through your developer or if you know how to use APIs. Skrill’s transaction fees are also cheaper than Paypal’s. Payoneer Payoneer is the number 1 platform for Freelancers. As a Freelancer in Madagascar, I cannot use Paypal, because the latter, in addition to being a patented asshole on vaping, is a racist of the worst kind by systematically banning poor countries. Payone

Michèle Rivasi, anti-vaping cunty-bitchy-slut

When Michèle Rivasi’s name comes to my ears, I have a level 4 allergy and I tend to use a fork to cut my veins. It also makes me believe in God, because only God could put so much stupidity and obscurantism into such a tiny physical space. And in addition, when we learn that Michèle Rivasi is a member of EELV (French Green party), ecology in a whitish sauce and completely ghastly, parasitized by Europeanist breasts. The ecologists are a mix between the dumb & dumber, a manatee suffering from Tasmanian Devil cancer and a concentrate of stupidity per square centimeter. And now the green will tell me that the green protects nature. Even the industrialists protect nature, let’s see. But environmentalists like Michèle Rivasi and the whole gang of EELV cockroaches protect the nature of their interests above all. That is to say, a full portfolio and the nation’s hatred for plunging into the Europeanist swamp. This Michèle Rivasi, therefore, wants to do the forcing to write the next TPD 3.

Paypal bans vape shops and more

If you want to hurt, knock on the wallet, a phrase we used to say to caricature Jews, but it works for everything. In recent weeks, Paypal has decided to actively ban accounts linked to vaping. The vape shop, the manufacturers of liquid and gear and everything that is related to the vape industry. Among the victims, we have big names like FastTech, Heaven Gifts, Innokin. In the UK, it’s sites like BestCigliquid, Vaping101 and dozens of others that have blown up. It is literally the ruin for the vape shop. Because the suspension is accompanied by a freeze of funds in the Paypal account for 180 days . You had vape sites that had thousands of dollars in their accounts and they are now down. This involves a big hole in the cash flow and outright shutdown for many vaping professionals. Paypal doesn’t say anything about vaping on its terms of use, but the suspension is justified because “vaping would be against Paypal’s ethics”. To say that Paypal is ethical about anything is to say that Jo

What is the best drill for coil building ?

In coil building , a drill is an accessory that quickly comes up on your shopping list. In fact as soon as you get down to the clapton, you’ll need a drill. A few things to keep in mind before purchasing your drill. Good brand or Chinese? Any drill will do the job. You don’t need to buy a 400 bucks DeWalt drill. You have Chinese drills that you can find starting at $ 50. However, when you take brands like DeWalt, Makita or Bosch, you have much higher reliability and durability. And as in the cordless models, the batteries are compatible between the models of the same range, you can create an array of drills without spending too much. The first purchase will be the heaviest, because you will have to buy the complete kit with batteries and charger and for the good brands, there is nothing less than 150 dollars. But you also have Chinese drills if you are on a more than tight budget. And that’s what I took. Speed control above all else Coil building with a drill is first a matter of ma

Farewell to American vaping industry with Biden

While Biden’s victory is almost certain, it does mean that the American vaping industry has been living his last weeks in the current state. Biden has always been against vaping and he has said he will ban it until “there is evidence to show that it not harmful.” A cut-and-paste phrase from Big Pharma who is one of the major donors to his campaign. Let’s not forget that in Obama’s days, vaping was considered a hard drug and it took Trump’s arrival to loosen the laws. As Biden is but an empty shell, sounding board for the deep state and big financial interests, the PMTA will be strengthened. It is already under Trump, as US Customs already seize and destroy thousands of vaping products that are not PMTA compliant. Paradoxically, cannabis and arguably CBD will have a boulevard ahead of them with Biden in power. He’s not going to legalize the sale of weed in grocery stores, but he’s not going to criminalize it either. It is a very dark day for the American vaping industry who has alread

The Maths for the alien coil

Image
The alien coil is one of the most popular in vaping, but also one of the most difficult to make. You have to master the clapton and the fused clapton before tackling the alien. The default alien coil is 3 cores (main wires). The inventor of the alien, Blue Eyed Goon ( he is also the creator of the RDA Goon ), went on 3 cores. But as soon as this alien coil landed, everyone declined it to their liking. The base of the alien coil Mastery of alien is essential for most advanced coils. But how do you know the diameter of the clapton you’re going to stretch and turn into an alien? By clapton, I mean the wire that will be the “Decore”. The Decore is a wire that is “stripped” from its clapton. For example, you clapton a 36 on a 26. Then you put the drill in reverse mode for a few seconds to “relax” the clapton. You remove it and you have a “Decore”. This Decore, you are going to stretch it until the sections space out and then you go clapton on 3 cores tightly together to have your alien. St

Resistive vaping wires : The best brands on the market

Image
Resistive vaping wires can be found at very affordable prices. But what are the good wires for vaping? By good wire, we will put some selection criteria. They need to be clean, they need to not break on the first try, and they need to last long enough. There are a lot of wire sellers, but I’m going to exclude Chinese vaping wires. The best brands of resistive vaping wires We pretty much know what UD and Vandy Vape resistive vaping wires are worth. Even though I still use Vandy Vape wire, as I must have had trouble getting European or American wires. We will focus on European and American sites and brands that sell resistive vaping wires. I’m not going to talk about coil builder, because there are so many these days. I’m especially interested in those that offer wires of all diameters. Vap’Extrême Vap’Extrême is a French company that offers resistive vaping wires of different diameters in alloys such as Kanthal, Nichrome 80 or 90, SS, but also ribbon and flat wire. Its wire is marked
