Insane we trust

Noob question I know, but what does the purge cap do? Is it just to get harsh smoke out?

Well they do make nicotine free juice if you want to try it. A perfect addition in my oppinion since it is already made to vaporized, as opposed to adding other things for flavor. Plus you can make smaller bowl more flavorful. Just a thought, since I normally can't taste the hookah smoke unless it is a really strong brand.  

@skoozle, I used the full flavored which is 16mg, fairly useless measurement in my opinion, but since it is liquid, I just vary the amount to vary the strength. Stronger or weaker doesn't make a difference to effect in my experience. It might make it stronger in the extra strength simply because it will vaporize more than lower strengths. I haven't tried it. Extra strength would probably be the most cost effective, but the lower concentration allows for more flavor enhancement to the sheesha.

One of my friends said he thought that in the east they had a wire support of some kind under the foil. I don't know if that is true or not, but do any of you have something like that, besides the bowl itself obviously. And if so, what is the material and how is it shaped? Also, if you don't use a support, how close to the foil do you pack your bowls?

My friend's who used to smoke pipes inhaled. One friend didn't, as for not inhaling, it's the same as the french inhale, but without the french. @bawhee, it actually made our clouds thicker.

I did it with PREMIUM EJUICE from volcanoecigs.com. I add probably around 1mL. As I said, I normally don't feel a buzz, but even that knocks me out if I smoke it too fast. The pipe tobacco was the same with a 50:50 mixture, but it wasn't as strong I don't think. My memory on that is fuzzy since I only did it once.

Last summer my friend who smokes pipe tobacco suggested mixing some of his with the sheesha, 50:50. That knocked a few of my friends out while we smoked. Later I started smoking ecigs. I decided to try the same thing, pouring ecig juice on the sheesha after packing. We had four people and two of them were laying down within 10 min. Since then we do it occasionally, especially if we plan to smoke at a party and don't want a ton of strangers hogging hoses all night. Perosnally it is the only way I ever "feel" a nicotine buzz while smoking. If anyone else has done this, or wants to comment after trying it, I'd love to hear your feedback and suggestions, especially flavor combos.
