I've just done a full day of vaping with my LT mini and have gone through 4 900mah batteries. 1 only lasted 2 1/2 hours when used at 4.5v with a 2.8ohm atty. When I had my 1000mah twist, I got an easy 10 hours out of it! Why does the LT eat batteries? Can I get bigger than 900mah for the mini? What is the very best battery make and will they make a difference? Kind Regards, Chiller. You are not alone Chiller,my mini LT that I purchased a short while ago from VH is exactly the same,I have the charger going none stop to keep it going.Would never buy another.If you compare it with a 1100 Riva where I was getting a full days vaping out of a single battery its no contest.I have recently bought the mini LT and the mini Twist,and in my opinion they are both a load of crap.The Twist packed up after a month,and the LT started playing up after a very short time and had to renew the grommet around the centre pin.The only mod that has lasted is the Argento,that is still going strong. |

Thanks Jason, I'm just ordering the rebuildables at 1.8, that's not going to blow up my battery or anything is it?  I don't think you will blow the battery with 1.8 but to be on the safe side with a Riva I would go for the higher resistance.I used one of my Riva's on the lower resistance for a while,and in the end the wire inside came away from it's joint because of the extra heat being used at the lower ohms.So to be on the safe side,I would stick to the 2.4. |

Yes Frogster,I have just purchased one of these from Amazon,a great little tool for less than £3.00 including postage.Very handy for those who like to recoil and soldering very small items.A very well made piece of kit that is fully adjustable.I am very well pleased with mine.

A good walkthrough Des.I think I am correct in saying,when you insert the wick into the top of the holder you must make sure that the coil does not touch the metal sides.So the you need to wind the coil on 4 or 5 wraps pretty close together to avoid this happening.I have been checking mine with a magnifier.
As oneday has mentioned these parts are very tiny.I have just ordered myself a magnified glass on a stand,which lets you have both hands free to work with,it also has a couple of small clamps that will hold small items for such things as soldering.It was not expensive,only a couple of quid from amazon.A handy thing for anyone with poor eyesight like myself.

Well iv'e just done my first 6 months,and never ever thought it would be so easy.From day 1 I have never even been tempted to have a fag even though my partner still smokes 20 plus a day around me.This has got to be the easiest way ever invented to kick the nasty habit.I am not one to shift around to different flavours,I just vape the same RY4 that I like and stick to it just like I did with a same brand of cigs for all those years.
So here's to the next 6 months,and the next challenge for me is to get my Mrs on to vaping.

Iv'e had one of these for a few days now and they are a very well made stylish little tool,the ladies will love them.
They are a nice size to take out and about,and are really comfortable to hold in your hand which makes it easy to find and use the fire button.I have the 900 mah and it vapes as good as anything that I own,plus the fact that getting 12 hours plus of vaping on a charge.If i'm forced to be critical the only down side would be the clarity of the voltage adjustment for those who have poor eyesight and a bit slippery to adjust,but all in all it's a great little tool and well worth the money.It has to go down as my best purchase to date.Well pleased with it.And you ladies are really going to love this one.It puts the new mini L/T right in the shade.
If you look in the reviews,Discodes has done a short review on it.

Kernow, have you let it steep? Chill, I've tried the walnut pipe & really liked it  Violet, thanks for posting the discount code  I know lots of folks don't like/get on with facebook, including myself - even though I'm on there & have the AAE-C page.  Yes Chrissie I did let it steep.Had the top off the bottle for a couple of weeks.It's about 4 months old now but still lacks that taste that the first bottle had. |

The RY4 sold on vape escape is Hangsens.I have been vaping it now for quite a few weeks and find it as near to the real flavour of a cig as you can get.

I first tried Black Cat when ordering some small bottles of pic and mix,and really loved it.Needless to say after that I went and ordered a 30 ml bottle,but I don't know why but is nowhere near as nice flavour wise.In fact I would say quite weak compared to the first little bottle that I had,so iv'e gone of it a bit.

Yep, very tempremental indeed  I think there may also be an issue with which batteries are used. I can only get it to turn on with my moju ones ??? I also have a TW bat, an AW and a Samsung from torchy, all work fine in my black LT ??? I have not tried any others karma,but mine work ok with the moju ones,the only thing I find is the don't last that long before they need charging again,do they? |

The on switch can be a bit temperamental karma. You have to get the clicks just right lol. You are not clicking joking hissie.I have tried it with fast clicks,slow clicks,and every other sort of click under the sun but still cant get it to power up with 5 clicks.I've not counted them but at times i'm certain it's at least 50 clicks.I don't care as long as it powers up in the end.The only snag comes when you have to disengage the battery to power off,you have to do lots of clicking when you want to use it again.Never mind though,I only use it as a back up. |

The pens are great Jason.Great customer service and just shows how you value our custom.By and large the vendors I have dealt with give really good service,but in my opinion Jason you are 2nd to none.Keep up the good work mate.  |

These are now reduced to £25.99! Bloody hell,what a drop in price.Should have waited a few weeks and saved myself 14 quid.I find my mini works fine apart from never coming to life after the 5 clicks on the button.I find that have to keep pressing the button continuous until it eventually decides to light up.I find it vapes well but heavy on battery consumption.To be quite honest though,I don't think it compares with my Riva 1100s for vape or battery life as I can use 1 of them and vape continuous all day on 1 charge.I have had them now for nearly 6 months and still as good as the day I bought them. |

Me,i'm not into sweaty,fruity,or menthol.I try to vape something that is as near as possible to the ciggy taste.
I have tried a lot over the last 5 months and have found the one that satisfies me and the nearest to the old ciggy is Hangsens RY4 at 24 mg.In the start I bought a small bottle of Black Cat and loved it,and then followed with a 30 ml bottle,I dont know why but it didn't taste the same.

I'm for the double draw method,a quick short draw to warm the atty followed by a deep draw and inhale.I find it gives a great throat hit and plenty of flavour.
