trying to find the 'oomph'

[djs]

Floop? What resistance is your new clearomiser...does it have little numbers on the side by the wick?

If the one you bought is rebuildable, hold fire on giving up on it. I remember the early days with a Riva and a strong flavour juice using a 2.4 head and then going to a 1.8ohm head - it nearly blew my head off (freshly charged mind you).....you will get there.

Once I got used to the vapour (I coughed and stuff at first, plus got wheezy) I went straight down to low resistance cartos and clearos.

after much squinting, yes, there is a number. its 2.4 and a symbol :/   can you tell i'm not very technical?   really fed up having spent twice what i'd hoped to already with trying to sort out a decent throat feeling.

Did the clearomiser you bought come with any spare heads Floop? Can you tell us which one it is as well?

Hi again. (Yes, I'm back, instead of watching TV or clubbing...)

There is quite a difference between vaping (on a Riva) on a 2.4 or a 1.8. The little symbol is the "ohm" mark. Getting technical the difference will be 2 watts or something, which *for me* is like weak and unsatisfying VS. pretty darn good!

Small world. I was looking at these today. Lucky you didn't buy the big ones.....£4 more expensive than online.

Is it really weak?

Maybe either cut your loses and keep it for spare, or buy a 3 pack of 1.8 heads, if they sell them.

its really not doing much at all for me - apart from giving me a headache!!  not sure i want to go in that shop again so i'll maybe order one of the 1.8 things online and try it with that.  i was doing ok with cartomisers but felt pressured to buy this!! all i wanted was a 'fiercer' feeling liquid

Hi floop , if you're on 18mg and you're not getting what you need out of it you need to go bang straight upto 36mg, this will give you what you're looking for, and if its to much for you you can dilute it down a bit, but in the meantime if you're not doing this already, hold the fire button in for a few seconds before taking a draw on it and draw in slowly for 6/7 seconds, this should give you more out if it.

That's what I'd do Floop . . . the 1.8omh head will give you a much more satisfying vape.

So sorry you were pressurized into buying something that you didn't necessarily want or need.

What are you like.

I had a chat (an hour before visiting Totally Wicked) with a giant Rabbit myself. We also checked out the baby rabbits too that arrived recently when my friends were on holiday.

Was it the Burnley shop?
i have seen that sales tactic first hand, quite effective.

Some of their juice is ok, but everything they sell is silly money, without pushy sales they would sell nowt!
