Hello from not so sunny SE Cornwall!
I have been vaping for less than a month but upgraditis has already lead me from a £14 650mAH eGo/CE4 starter kit to an MVP v2 via buying a bigger eGo to make sure I didn't run out during the day and picking up a Smok ViviNova as I fancied something pyrex. I love the MVP, much better performance than the eGo/CE4 combo and after two days of pretty heavy vaping, well by my standards, straight out of the box the battery is still showing green. The battery will last me for quite a while if I'll only be charging it a couple of times a week.
At least my constant desire to upgrade can't lead me into much more trouble, well for the foreseeable anyway. £10-20 to try a new clearo and pick up some coils every now and then and the amount I spend on juice isn't going to bankrupt me.
As for juices, I've only really tried the Chinese ones and haven't been too impressed so far, but I've got a few bottles from JooseJuice on the way and can't wait to try them. At least I've got plenty of juice to get through while they steep. I'm glad I discovered quite quickly that paying £4-5 for 10ml of rebottled Hangsen/Dekang isn't the way forward!
So yeah, hi!

Hi BrenD and You'll find the answers to all your questions and a huge amount of help and advice. Just don't be too confident about keeping the shineyitis under control - you will be sorely tempted, often!

Hi and welcome . You can't really go wrong with t juice. Oh and don't be so sure about upgrades being risk free. Once you start to see everything that's out there the dreaded shinyitis will strike you too

Hi and to our happy band. £10-20 to try a new clearo and pick up some coils every now and then and the amount I spend on juice isn't going to bankrupt me. Which clearos are you spending this amount on? Have a look here: myepack.co.uk/clearomizers.html?p=2 As for juices, remember to let your JJ steep before you use. An other good deal at the moment is www.darkstarvapour.co.uk/ £1.50 10ml and £1.00 P&P offer at the moment (british site as well.

The £10-20 was a general figure, the most I have spent so far was about £7.50 for the Smok Vivi, but by the time I had picked up a few spare coils and paid for postage it came to about £14. I got the MVP from Myepack and their price and service were spot on, so I'll probably go back to them next time I buy a new clearo. I'll have a little look at darkstar, I promised myself I wouldn't buy any more juice until a raid on smokerainbow for some samples come pay day, but I'm weak when it comes to things like that

Hi BrenD and a very warm from me too. The MVP2 is a great piece of kit... what do you think of the iclear30 that came with it? What kind of flavours are you enjoying so far? Joosejuice are great value, but some of the flavours are a little on the muted side. If there are some you really like but could do with them being a little stronger, they also sell the same flavours in concentrate form, so you can add a few drops of extra flavour Smokerainbow is a fantastic site... very easy to get a bit carried away though! If you are going to get a few of their samples, it might be worth investing in a dripper... have a look at this thread I can thoroughly recommend the drippers recommended on the first page and a really good price

Well worth the money for the massive battery alone, let alone the increased performance compared to eGos and the like. I was going to wait a few months before taking the plunge, but I'm glad I couldn't. The period of time between finding it, realising I wanted it and buying it was a few days I'm really hoping the espresso from Joosejuice actually tastes like coffee, I found that the Dekang coffee tasted like a decent vanilla coffee syrup and the Hangsen coffee reminded me of a flake bar. Both were nice enough, but not what I was after! I'm still undecided about the iclear30, but then again I'm still learning the ropes. The taste and vapour seem good, but I really don't like the drip tip. A minor thing to moan about, but everything needs to feel right, right? I hadn't thought of getting a dripper, but it would make sense for the samples and testing juices I've got steeping, good shout! I've got a few weeks to read up on them before payday
