were thee using the supplied wick or cutting your own strips glen?
So far i've used both and found my own harder to get right (cleaning off all the fluff to get the thin inner one was tricky) - but not had a leakage issue yet?

The hat isn't exactly new -t'was a 40th birthday 'prezzie' - i wanted to borrow if for me Aladdin costume for me 40th birthday, and the foolish lad said i could keep it if i went barefoot until then

Some Vape related Pics

On the Fast Train down to ShenZhen





ShenZhen Coastal Ecological Gardens



And overlooking the harbour towards Hong Kong



Edit to add:
The trousers i am 'modelling' i got over here via the infamous taobao.com - most trousers here can be an ickle short in length or, due to fashion, impossible to get over my western proportioned thighs. They are possible the most vape friendly trousers i own, having a potential mod pocket on both sides (so ambidextrous) as well as a zip cargo type pocket too!

And my Chinese isn't that good - so i pay an extra 10% for the privilege of being able to order and have customer support in English via taobaofocus

I voiced my reluctance and reservations about newspapers and journalism in general before taking part - which was pretty much a contractual obligation
Yep - pretty much all media, if not Government owned, then 'tows the party line' - by default if nothing else
The quick and easy run through - is along the lines
"I climb the mountain every day - which i don't, that my students like my energy and enjoy me lessons, and i'm integrating with the Chinese staff, Xianning and way of life well, and that i think the air quality in Xianning is pretty good - i think is the gist - oh and mainly cook my own food

The pics were pretty much all 'staged' - including picking the only class that happened to have uniforms, and informing them before hand to wear them for a photo shoot, and, as it happened to be the last class i'd be teaching them, the girls wanted selfies with me with their posh togs on

- they wanted to take a pic of me having a VoIP chat with someone, preferably Ma - at midday here - so 4am back home. Well that wasn't going to happen. So for the less observant or tech savvy, that's just a still photo of me Ma i'm pretending to talk to instead LoL Said to me 'line manager', before i agreed to my 'contractual obligation to promote the college', that Newspapers manipulate or omitt the truth or outright lie to get a story.....

PS
My actual words, when explicitly asked about air quality in Xianning, were along the lines of better than i expected, and even at it's worst, no worse than London - for instance

Still can't Like (so not ignoring folk - just hit like and just sends me to the top of the page?), post any emoticons aside from shortcuts - or post pics unless i post on UKV and then copy and paste it over Grrr!

Xianning from 'The Mountain' - stolen from a student, as it's either been too dark or raining when i've gone fro pics :30:

Well today it finally happened!
Been here for over 4 months and i spied the rarest of creatures in Xianning today - the lesser spotted Chinese vaper!
He was walking along, and vaping almost in stealth mode, which made it difficult to be sure. Then he spotted the plume emerging from my VG backed FX exhale and shyly smiled, raised his ego with CE4 type clearo and hurried on before i could grab a selfie with him - darn LoL

Good job paulymeatballs - excellent pics and info as per usual

Received mine yesterday. I needed a new smaller device to replace me eleaf 50W and compliment the Reuleaux - great as it is sometimes smaller (and lighter) is more convenient. Chose the same colour scheme as yours - and it's a delightfully simple, single 18650 VW device, that's very hang friendly. Possibly the comfiest 18650 walk around device i've used of the VV/VW style. Looks good with the Aqua FX too.

The tank as Pauly says, is a simple (but well made) 3.5ml-ish sub ohm tank, with bottom fill. Worth mentioning that my FT 'Aspire' Kanthal coils don't fit it - they appear to be slightly wider in diameter. Air flow is slightly stiff, but stays put, so acceptable.

I replaced the installed Kanthal coil with the Ni one (reads 0.17 on the device) as was interested and tbh haven't really played with TC that much. The TC bit is easy to adjust - does do the new/old tank ting - but as RIP mentioned doesn't auto detect (well actually it did once - but never again ). Having played around now have it set at 280 C. The Flavour is very good, clean - but to get the most out of it i am going back to my old genesis habits of fire, sizzle inhale. Not a biggie, as it's pretty much all in one motion. Vapour production is good, but i'm not a cloud chaser, and the FX can certainly produce more. One of the reasons i'm saving the Kanthal coil is to try and then compare it in the Anyvape Furytank vs a normal Kanthal .5 and the Clapton coils i'm hoping to get in Shenzhen.

Both the Vaporesso tank and FX, to me, sit flush on the device, with no obvious gap. Comparing power to the Reuleaux certainly seem on a par - using the FX and FX clone as comparison with the same builds.

All in all nice device, OK tank and interesting coils - worth the £40ish i paid
Looking forward to trying the cCell's in other devices - and have 10 on their way from FT via Ireland - just hope the 'controversy' is sorted by the time i get them (another reason for going with the TC - in the back of me mind anyway )
