I've been a stalker on this site for about 2 weeks and have taken the plunge to join and ask a couple of questions. I ordered a skycig starter kit for my other half. She has looked at vamping equipment but wanted something closer to a fag. Absolute novice so pretty impressed so far.
Question one: what eliquid resembles B&H silvers best ? Question two: where can I get the same size cartomisers to fit the skycig? we ordered some boge 510's but the are slightly bigger in diameter. Question three: can anyone recommend a shop in the north London area to buy bits, or is online everyone's choice?
Thanks in advance J

Thanks in advance J Hello Jimmyjames and welcome I never smoked B&H, you may never find an eliquid to resemble it, all I can say is try a few and see if anything comes close or one that can become an all-dayer, its hard to suggest eliquid as we are all so different, maybe a pick n mix would be helpful. A few people have started on the same ecig, they will be on sooner or later and perhaps can help with the cartos Don't know of any shops, there are shops spread about the country but most are online.

Hey and welcome Jimmy. Like others have already said baccy flavours vary alot in the flavour they imitate. Try to get some 5ml samplers from suppliers to see what you think of them as they vary considerably in taste. (Ive found that the HS Premium and standard Dekang do an ok job).

Generally, you may find it hard to find an EXACT taste of a tobacco cigarette, but you may find one that echoes what you're looking for. You have a whole new world of flavours to discover with E-cigs. Get yourself some 5ml samples from the vendors, try Britvape and Vape Escape for starters. If you have any you don't like you could always sell/swap them here afterwards. Oh and #welcome2#

Hello & welcome Jimmy As Karma says, the Boge cartos should work on your sky cig.

Hello J and welcome. I started on the Skycig and still use it from time to time.
There are a couple of key things about cartomisers. The first is the type of screw thread. The most common is called 510 thread, and fortunately the Skycig batteries have a 510 thread so you can use Boge or other common cartos on them. The second is the resistance. You will see SR (standard) and LR (Low) resistance advertised. Only use SR on your batteries, LR will drain them quicker. The diameter is almost not talking about as long as you follow these two.
Also, you can re-fill the Skycig cartridges several times with e-juice you purchase yourself. This is much cheaper than buying from Skycigs and offers you all the alternative flavours that are out there
