That is what I would do, knowing what I know now. The only reason I went for the kit once was to get the small batteries and I still use them, they do hold a reasonable charge. I dont know anything about the charger Torchy has there. www.amazon.co.uk/Panasonic-NCR18650B-UNPROTECTED-Capacity-Rechargeable/dp/B00AIOH9VG/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1358964470&sr=8-3These are a good buy, 3400mah Panasonics, two days plus vaping from each one. £17-20 shipped in the UK I believe. You dont really need that capacity, the lower capacity ones are a fair bit cheaper. Dont skimp on a charger though. The Stainless Steel Vamo looks really good though and wont scratch.

Cheers Robby. I might just get the kit along with a vivi nova. Will probably come in handy with the smaller batteries, then I'll get some bigger ones along with another charger. Comes to about £31.00, including delivery, from vapor break, as opposed to nearly £70.00 from a UK seller. I like to buy as local as possible, but when the middleman more than doubles the price...

Good price, the novas are good from there, I have a couple of them.

Good price, the novas are good from there, I have a couple of them. Is it worth buying two novas, then?

I think that is a thing we shouldnt forget as well, you cant have prices like this and loads of staff and overheads. He works really hard for long hours, that is where the cheap prices come from as much as anything. He just has to get the balance right now. And another thing people forget that people need to live of their earnings...... It is after all a business. No offence, but people bashing about £1 here and 1p there are causing people to close up shop and loose their livleyhood. Greed is bad, but you cant price everyone out of the market that is just stupid. I do not condone shopping abroad, especially from China... I would rather spend an extra £20 and know it is supporting a fellow BRITISH individual. Sorry rant over..... I never understand this stance about buying from China or anywhere else for that matter, heard the same from some vendors about co-op buys. If I buy from China I am helping support a fellow BRITISH individual, ME. Why should anyone think they are entitled to anyone's business ? or we are obliged to do business in certain places and not others ?
