When I was a publican I'm sure a Vampires kiss was a cocktail with a vermouth & gin base  Yep here it is www.drinkswap.com/vampire's-kiss.htm That is what went through my mind also that it was a cocktail. I remember it with Cranberry juice not Tomato. Might of been thinking of something else, though the bar I worked in kind of just slapped something together until it ran out and then did something else lol |

Well it is another Li-po battery to add to my collection of them. Yes the internals are a pile of poo. Thanks Tim for taking the pictures, saves me a job.
As I have not been even able to take a drag on mine and the auto circuit board is goosed I have sent them an email saying that I was not impressed and that it basically went into melt down. Lets see if they will send me something else to try that is of a little better quality

It looks like I will not be able to try it later. I took the pack apart and the e-juice has leaked from the carto all into the packing. I took one puff on it and it switched on and did not want to turn off. I ended up having to pop the end off it and remove the auto sensor for it to finally stop. There was a little puff of smoke (possibly vape) from the sensor and it now does not work  As I was not goig to be able to try it out now I thought Oh well lets take it apart. Will be putting pics up later. But not that I have skinned the Zebra I can see why it leaked. The tube used is of a thin plastic, the only thing seperating the wadding with the juice in it from the battery is a single scilicone grommet, which the wires go through. from there it is straight onto the battery. This means that any amount of squeezing on the filter end will push the juice through into the battery. (Mine is swimming in it). Also if for some reason you blow through the tip it will force the juice on to the battery and circuit board. Impresion so far is that it is not of a very high quality. I might be able to rig up something to make it work so I can comment on the juice taste but atm I am letting it cool down. |

Mine just came through the door. Think I might hold off for a bit since I have been vaping my Expresso with extra cafine on my LT, so probably not a goot time to try to compair lol Something I have just seen on the pack is that you get £5 off one of their kits. In the description on their kit it says that you get 5 cartridges equal to 100 cigarettes. Though still a bit high in the estimation, it is so much closer to reality than the E-Lites saying that you in 5 carts you would get 200. So so far I am thinking that they are at least trying to be honest, I did say trying.  |

What rating is the phone charger? If it has a USB output and is able to cupply more than the required power rating for your eGo then yes it will work fine. I use my HTC one to charge mine up with and it is fine.

I have a few of them Macca, I ordered them up by mistake as I wanted the end caps, I just clicked on the wrong item and did not check. I did not like using them at all, the only possible use for them is if the Mrs has lipstick on and wants to try out the flavour that I am vaping. They do add a tiny bit of softness to the tip but not that much.
I agree with Gordy about the fluff sticking to it also.

Another thumbs up for the XTAR WP2. The fast charge mode is great. Also, handy to be able to recharge my mobile from an 18650 if there is a power cut. That does sound a good option when you have a power hungry phone and are stuck on public transport. Think I might be getting both the Xtar chargers. and it will still come out cheaper than the Pilla |

Oh they knew Bat. After 4 years of war (U.S. involvement) and thousands of deaths, they knew that they were going home. My Dad served in the CBI (China, Burma, India) theater. He told me that when Germany surrendered, they all cheered, but when Japan surrendered, everyone went silent. They all realized that it was over and they were going back home to their loved ones. It must of been like a dream to a lot of them. have to keep checking that it has really happened and not just wishfull thinking. In the Uk we have Rememberance Day Where on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month, we pause to think of the fallen. This video if for the americans who have lost their lives in conflicts all over the globe and should be remembered on their Memorial Day There is a quote that comes up in the clip that said "It it not the reporter that gave us the freedom of speach but the soldier" When I see people expressing that right against the very people who ensured that they had it, my blood boils, they know very little about what has gone on to allow them to be there, and if they were confronted with the evil that is in the world they might think twice about what they are doing. These are my thoughts and feelings on this subject, and everyone who reads it has the right to their own, but keep in your thoughts how you are able to have your own thoughts in the first place. |

Yes the e-lite carts can be filled with any e juice. They are just like any other carto out there. you can either use the "Condom" Method or take the white plastic bit out of the top gently and refill that end by dripping the juice down the side. when you refill them let them stand for a while so that the juice can be absorbed better into the wadding. Also try not to get any down the center tube. If you do, make sure you blow out the carto into a paper tissue or somethign to clear the airway. It is best not to over fill them though as they will leak into the battery and kill it rather easily. so just make sure that your not letting juice get down to the battery |

My only warning about it would be dont expect the same time between charges to the Riva you have now. Yours is a 650mAh and this is just 350mAh |

No, I leave mine on all night. Once it's charged it goes to trickle mode Hummmmm, he says stroking his beard, looks like that might be the option I am looking for |

Fill me in on the missing details here. What is the difference between the Riva and the eGo? I see that the Riva's come in many different colours and they have a 3 click on/off where as the eGo's come in black or silver and have a 5 click on/off apart from that what is the difference between them? Edit ok the puffin eGo's come in different colours (thanks Fagin lol ) |

That one does look good and says it has Algorithm charging system (CC/CV). but do you have to stand over it and take the batteried out once they are done?
