Hi,
I've been looking for a nice 50/50 eliquid. In my village back home they've opened a big VIP shop (i thought VIP had gone into liquidation) anyways - chatting to the shop assistant and he showed me Cirro range.
I got a ready to rumble, fairground fizz and current affairs.
I also got some KIK eliquid (£8 for 3x10ml bottles - so cheap!)
Not seen or heard of these brands before - so just wondered if anyone had tried them, if they are a decent brand etc?
Tried the ready to rhumble and it seems pretty nice!
Xx

Cirro is a horrible supermarket brand. It is the non cig-a-like part of the 10 Motives company, who tried to be Nicolites/E-Lites to the masses and failed.
Kik is £1 in my local shop. They specialise in nasty clone batteries and tanks - the price you pay depends where you shop but their stuff is dirt cheap and still too expensive for what it is.
Clearly, now we have the TPD - so I won't know the prices until I go shopping tomorrow or Tuesday.
You win some, you lose some. If you like the liquid, buy it and be happy... that's not a lot of money.
It's B&M/The range/Homebargains store stuff. Nothing is gonna change that.

Oh wow, i didn't realise. Gosh i wonder how poor quality my other 50/50 is because I really don't like it. It's from V - Revolution.
What's a good quality 50/50 brand?
I will use this juice because it seems alright in my T18 but wonder if I'm really missing out on a good 50/50 experience! Lol

Lol If you like then vape it remember one mans / womans water is another mans / womans wine what DJS thinks is nice you may think is crap each to their own and all that. If YOU like it and are happy with it thats all that matters IMHO.

I'm enjoying most of the Deadly Sins juice from Fresh Mist, that's 50/50. They've got an offer on at the moment 10 x 30ml for £20. So £2 for 30ml is not too shabby.

V-revolution were the authentic London rip-off store. They opened in covent garden area and sold £25 e-cigs for £99.99. Their liquid is probably marked up 400% as well. London, eh - got to love it. I'm from London btw. There's no pleasing some people (me) - AAEC mostly forgives my militant anti capitalist stance. (Gosh...)

Haha - no hate at all! It's all good knowledge!
I agree about V Revolution, well overpriced. Again didn't realise when I first started going there until I started looking online.
Thanks for the eliquid recommendations! There are so many brands - it's hard to know which are the premium stuff, good vaping stuff from face value. V Revolution is £7 a bottle, so it's inline with the price of premium brands but clearly isn't a quality vape.
I did like the cirro one I tried today but that's in relation to the v Revolution stuff I have rather than in relation to anything else.
Really interested to know how a really well blended and quality eliquid would perform and work in my T18. I thought the T18 itself wasn't that good, but now I'm wondering if it's just what I'm actually vaping.
So yep the more advice and opinions the better. It's better when you get a bit of direction and guidance from those who have 'been there, done that', so I can make more of an informed choice.
And to be fair even buying loads of eliquid I don't end up liking, it's still way cheaper than actually smoking. I'm still in the money with vaping ;-) lol
Be good if we could have some sort of trip advisor type review system for eliquids! Haha.

Taste is so subjective though kingerax...someone could love a certain juice...but I taste it & it makes me boke

Oh of course yes I agree, you're right.
At the moment it's all a complete minefield, I don't know if I'm ordering good brands, poor brands etc I hoped there would be a bit of a consensus around what are the good brands rather than the flavours they stock, within that brand.

kingerax - For me, I even think some of the brands are highly subjective. I bought a fair amount of alleged "premium" juice in the TPD sales and have been pretty much underwhelmed. Far too many of them had pretty boxes and flashy bottles but the liquid inside was either far too tasteless or uninspiring for me. Do you do DIY?

If some of the so called "premium" juice is a little tasteless, it can often be perked up with the addition of some concentrate if you DIY. Prevents your initial investment from being a total loss.

Haven't ventured into diy. Eek i wouldn't have a clue! Lol. It could be fun tho!
I have one friend who has just taken his first steps into it. He bought his stuff from darkstar. He's been sending me pics :-) although quite a lot of it he says is awful! Haha. But he's done a few good ones he said I could try.
But I have no idea how he's done it.

Don't knock the cheap juices until you have tried them. The first liquid I ever tried was a hangsen called Gold & Silver To this day I still vape that liquid, with its own mod and tank
Other flavours come and go, the hangsen has always stayed
Even the 88vape liquid from the likes of b&m stores, might be cheap as it comes, but still caries good flavour

Lol T-Juice Red Astaire is a very popular flavour and if you like it then it's super easy to diy! If you want to try some then pm me your details and I will send you a bottle to try
