What battery to buy next?

[kirsty0108]

Now I am thinking about buying a new type of battery , as I have so successfully broken two of my Riva's , but what too buy?

TBH perfectly happy with the Riva apart from the centre pin issue so just want something a bit more robust, particularly as my centre pins have sunk on my two remaining Riva batteries and I can't use my clearo's on them (I'm not touching them again honest guv) freedomvape.co.uk/shop/article_1024/Ego-Battery-Variable-Voltage-900mah.html?shop_param=cid%3D19%26aid%3D1024%26

This was recommended to me by Macca, as was this :

vapeescape.co.uk/ego-variable-voltage-battery~269

I am not so worried about vv or as using them as a pass through (either Perpy or Chrissie told me not to use them on a lap top as it could fry the motherboard). Of course I could just go the whole hog and buy an LT but I've had a look and to me they just look like something you buy behind the curtains in Ann Summers and its putting me off a bit lol!

FYI Bel, although I am buying a fair bit, I am not going over my current shopping budget at the moment so

Both of those are the same one's K and neither are a passthrough.

The passthrough I wrote to you about is this one:

vapeescape.co.uk/900mah-variable-voltage-battery-%26-pass-through~287

It's not a direct passthrough and you can safely use it on a lappy..

Right I am going to slip away quietly now I was wondering about why the wording had changed on the Vapeescape one lol ! Think I will get the ego batteries to tide me over to payday then get the pass through at a later date.

I have a ego vv battery/passthrough Kirsty. I like the battery but I'm not sure how long the passthrough will work, it seems rather flimsy! Those new VV ones at freedom vape look rather nice!

I have to say that I'm very disappointed at what happenend to you batteries, i thought they would have lasted a lot longer. With that in mind it may be worth considering the LT? Replacement batteries are as cheap as chips compared to the Riva!

Have you looked at the Paaws Mod that Jane bought, it's very girly, i'm thinking about getting one if I get any more birthday money, for out and about. It uses the same bats as the LY!

i think it works out at around £20 delivered!

I am suprised that the riva hasnt lasted you longer :-[ my Tornado batteries, are still going well, they are nearly six mths old, and have been borrowed by two different people before I had them back, still use them.

Hey Karma

Yeah I'm a bit disappointed too but on the other hand the black battery was at least 6 weeks old when you compare that to the cig alikes batteries which aren't that much cheaper it was a big improvement, add to this that it was me that broke it , all in all I just really need something that's a bit more Kirsty proof and am not dissing the batteries at all

[maccafan]

FV have just announced a 15% discount..

[kirsty0108]

Considering this Karma but just ordered the ego VV from PV , postage is the same for 2 as 1 , can you hold off until at least the 22nd and we can split postage , I wouldn't need you to pay me until your pay day. I take it with this wee guy I would also need to buy batteries and a charger ?

[Karma]

Kirsty, i'm not sure, but if we ordered 2 together then would we not fall foul of customs? Perhaps someone knows? Jane, help!

[kirsty0108]

If its £20 we fall foul of customs anyway (I think others have mentioned its £15) so its the same there is no rush I am not going to order for at least two weeks (honest)

Edit to add its definitely £15 customs.hmrc.gov.uk/channelsPortalWebApp/channelsPortalWebApp.portal?_nfpb=true&_pageLabel=pageTravel_ShowContent&id=HMCE_CL_000014&propertyType=document#P24_2132

Ah ok just we get lucky!

TBH, we probably wouldn't save much if anything combining postage as it's only $5 then one of us would have to post on! I sent Giz a very small, light package this week and it cost nearly £" to send

[Karma]

All this talk of the Paws Mod and I've just stuck one in my basket to work out postage! £19 delivered, not bad so long as customs don't charge us more!

I'm going to have to shut down my browser and go out for a bit before I accidently hit 'pay'

[kirsty0108]

Serves you right now you've got me thinking about that LT lol!

[Karma]

I have resisted (for now)
