Perfectionist - Hi You clearly have both knowledge & experience, which has the potential to be so valuable to other, less experienced, 'vapers' Babe ...... just chill a lil bit 'cause I'm sure you don't mean to offend anyone at all. Some of your posts do come across rather feisty / personal though. I do not think you intended them this way 'cause they're all sweeties in here. In no time you'll love 'em to bits & they will you too I often get carried away when I've passionate views about something or other, & have to extract my foot from my mouth so I'm posting in all humility. I'm off to read that long post of yours again - found it so interesting ....... some good info in there. I've only ever thought of juice in mls, never litres - wow Would love to see your Karma go up, I'm off to give it a helping hand now. Please take this in the friendly way it's meant (not up to being 'crushed' right now - lol - too damn worn out ) God bless the fairer sex !! Forever making a mountain out of a molehill !! (Yes, I mentioned sex again, I'm such a naughty boy !! ) Still, I do love your description of me babe - "rather feisty" is very accurate !! (Although my wife calls me "cheeky bar-steward" ...... you're much more polite, wish I'd married you instead !! PS : I didn't notice the "Karma" thing ...... is giving someone "negative" Karma the same as throwing a temper tantrum like a toddler, because they said something you disagree with ??

Perfectionist, as with all forums, we have people from all age groups (yes OK before you pick up on it they are over 18, but many a lot older) & all walks of life. So for us all to communicate we have to respect each others feelings/views. But it looks like I'm not the only one that is finding it hard to accept the way you have put your views across. And that is such a shame as I do think you have a lot to offer the vaping community. Babe, Ken Dodd was being silly ...... but you're being even sillier !! So I made a tiny sexual reference that was completely harmless ...... and you're acting like I posted hardcore porn !! What next, are you gonna get all upset over a Carry On film too babe ?? Lets make Peace and focus on Vaping instead ...... which reminds me, I really should sit down and write my FlavourArt review !! PS : I warn you against watching any reviews by good old HiFi Geordie - he might give you a heart attack !!

Hissie, yes, it takes some imagining doesn't it! The thought of two litres of juice in the fridge is mind blowing Wonder if the 'shelf life' would outlast the juice Unfortunately Nicotine degrades over time so 18-24 months is roughly the "use by date" on Juice ...... I'm sure it's a Government conspiracy to keep us all from stocking up !!

Hi Lollipop You're up late, you on night feeding duty? lol Perfectionist, what do you vape with? I just got a Mako midi today and i think it's great... Have pretty much tried all the mainstream devices out there ....... but have avoided buying any Mods as something better always seems to turn up about a month later !! Also a lot of them are quite big and seem to have leaking and reliability issues ?? How's the Mako doing so far ?? Given a couple more years, the problems will be ironed out and the pace of development will start to slow down ....... hopefully we'll begin seeing something akin to the "perfect" E-cig ....... I'm looking forward to filling my boots then !! For the time being I think the M4 atomisers are superior to all the others ...... they produce excellent flavour and throat hit, although not as much vapour as the LR 510 ...... but then I don't have a clue why the "fashion" is to produce huge clouds of smoke ....... it doesn't really help the Vaping cause when out in public !! They also last for months on end with an absolute minimum of fuss, while the others only last a few weeks and need all kinds of crazy cleaning and maintenance regimes !! Not to mention they are very versatile so can easily be used for dipping and dripping as well as with cartridges ...... best of all though is their native PCC which keeps an extra battery constantly on charge and 5 cartridges ready to go !! It basically means I've got a full days worth of Vaping gear packed nicely into a box the size of a packet of fags ...... and the M4 batteries resemble a cigarette in size too ...... the 403 Auto being small and light enough to Vape hands free just like errr "normal" !! But it gets even better !! The standard M4 batteries only put out about 2.7-2.9 Volts so the atomisers are made to work with a lower voltage ....... now get an adapter and slap an M4 atty on an Ego/Riva battery which puts out 3.3-3.5 Volts and you've got yourself the best darn Vaping in town !! In short, I can't recommend the M4 highly enough ...... but, whatever you do ...... don't buy them from the vile monstrosity known as IntelliCig !!

He is for real Ken. Perfectionist, why the attitude & agro? I just don't understand! There is just no need for it whatsoever. You say, "Juice is nothing more than just PG or VG mixed with a bit of flavouring " so why in your opinion does buying neat pg or vG from flavour art for £15.00 seem so cheap? & worth such an OTT sig that distracts from your posts? I can buy neat VG from a chemist for £1.25 for 100ml! Attitude and agro? Where when? ??? Babe £15 + postage gets you 18mg fully flavoured Juice - not just neat PG !!

And talking of Intellicig & funny things, this made me laugh a while back. David Newns, one of Intellicigs directors was caught out on the e-cig thread in Money saving experts forum. Originally Posted by davidnewns View Post Hello

Really if you have any doubt try one, I understand you can get a refund if you are not happy.

im going out on a lim here.... but thats your company isnt it david...The original post by David was removed but the quote & reply is still there : - forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.php?t=1243625&highlight=intellicig&page=2Comedy Gold !! Not only is that unbelievably funny, it's unbelievably dumb !! (A little too dumb actually! ) The sad thing is that, to a very large degree, the future of Vaping rests in the hands of moronic vendors like this ......

Is this guy for real or is it spam? Like I said above, you need to get out more dude !! Oh, and develop a sense of humour while you're at it Bro !!

perfectionist to find the smilies etc, click on reply rather than quick reply To add an a avatar , check out post #2 on this thread : - allaboute-cigarettes.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=general&action=display&thread=488Hope you don't mind me saying that, in some ways your sig re Flavour Art is a tad misleading as that is the price for their e-liquid without any nicotine in it ?, plus of course, as you say, there is the postage cost to add on. The price goes way up if you need a high nic juice. As for Light In the Box - I'm guessing that's Dekang? Good point Babe, not trying to mislead so let me break it down in case of confusion : 100ml at 18mg Nicotine = E15.00 (24mg=E17.50 & 36mg=E23.50) Add Flavouring of choice = E16.50 Add Tax = 20% = E19.80 Deduct 10% Discount = E17.82 (use code ukvapers) Convert Euro/Sterling = £14.85 (approx £1=E1.2 at present rates) So less than £15 for 100ml at 18mg of The BEST Juice In The World !! (24mg=£17 & 36mg=£22) Postage is E3.90 = £3.25 – but they charge the same even if you buy several bottles, so ordering a few flavours at the same time brings it down to only a £1 a bottle for delivery, bargain! As far as Nicotine strength goes, I have my own (unfounded!) concerns. The thing about Vaping is that you can pretty much puff away all day – to me that is the same as chain smoking cigarettes and I’m not entirely convinced that pumping excessive amounts of pure Nicotine in to your body is a good thing, despite it not having any of the nasty chemicals that cigarettes have …… I originally started out with 24mg and was Vaping constantly all day, so switched to 36mg in an effort to cut that down and make my Vaping more like the way I Smoked (ie Vape for a few minutes and then put the e-cig down for half an hour) but that didn’t work as I was still chain Vaping and eventually started getting strange migraine like headaches (anybody else get these?) …… I immediately dropped down in strength so that I could keep Vaping without OD’ing as it were …… 9mg was literally like Vaping thin air and even 18mg wasn’t much better …… however I persevered with the 18mg for about 2 weeks and eventually started getting a decent throat hit and reduced cravings …… I now find 18mg very satisfying ....... naturally it'll be different for everybody My early orders with FA took almost 3 weeks to arrive, but they have gotten much better and now only take 6-8 days. Also, LightInTheBox is Dekang Juice and charge $2 for shipping so the total delivered price is $12=£8 which they take about 2 weeks to turn around. Hope that clears it up y’all !! However, there appears to be a new sheriff in town !! www.ecigfair.com !! 10 x 100ml of 36mg Juice = $70 + $35 Shipping = $105 = £70 !! Yup, a full litre of super high strength Juice in 10 different flavours for only 70 squid !! But it gets better !! Buy some mixing bottles for a fiver = cgi.ebay.co.uk/200ML-Empty-Plastic-Bottles-Tattoo-Ink-Green-Soap-/170434557445?cmd=ViewItem&pt=UK_Health_Beauty_Tattoos_BodyArt_SM&hash=item27aeb0f605#ht_1309wt_1137Buy a litre of VG for a tenner = cgi.ebay.co.uk/1000ml-1-Litre-VEGETABLE-GLYCERINE-BP-Cosmetic-Grade-/190390422471?cmd=ViewItem&pt=UK_Carfts_Candle_SoapMaking_EH&hash=item2c54274bc7#ht_2435wt_991Then cut the 36mg PG Juice with the VG 1:1 for 18mg or use half a litre for 24mg. That way you get the added vapour production of VG plus a nice slightly sweetened taste ...... So altogether, 2 litres of Dekang Juice for £70+£5+£10=£85 !! That’s right party people – 2 full years worth of E-liquid for little more than the price of a dozen packets of fags !! Eat ya heart out, Totally Overpriced and EcoRipOff !!

Perfectionist, you are clearly a seasoned vaper. I am a newbie and as yet haven't got a clue what the stuff I am vaping comprises. I am assuming it is clever scientific stuff - and I was never very good with that! I still have wholly understood what in the juice creates the vape, and why some juices seem to vape much better than others. Would be great to 'doctor' juices myself by experimenting with flavours - 'cos that's how I cook. You bet yo ass I'm a seasoned Vaper !! I was Vaping back before the War, I still remember trekking 500 miles across country to my nearest E-Juice Well, and having to make my own Atomisers from mud and horse manure, not to mention all the Fire-breathing Dragons we had to fight to get a decent battery ....... You young un's don't even know you're born ....... etc etc ...... But I digress ...... Juice is nothing more than just PG or VG mixed with a bit of flavouring and a measured amount of Nicotine - a bottle of cough mixture is actually more complicated and has more expensive ingredients ....... but I'm all for experimentation (especially sexual!) so don't mind me and go "cook" to your hearts content ....... would be cool if you let everyone know your findings!

Mixing !! Mixing !! We don't need no stinking Mixing !!
Seriously Dude/Babe, I don't understand why anybody would want to waste time and energy attempting to DIY - just order in some ready-made stuff and if you need to, add a few drops of food flavouring to it !!
I quickly got bored of all the Tobacco flavoured Juice I had - so I simply drop a little vanilla essence or banana or strawberry etc to get a lovely smokey, sweet n sour Vape !! That's as much mixing I've ever done, and will ever do !!
I like to keeps things as simple as possible - not just for myself but so I can convince any/all the Smokers I meet to try coming over to the "Light Side" ...... making it all sound so complicated, really does put people off / light a fag !!
PS - Chrissie, the prices are unbeatable - but their shipping charges are the exact opposite of cheap! However, if you order in bulk, it's very very worthwhile!
PPS - Babe, how do I use smileys and how can I add my pic?
PPPS - Thanks for the welcome!

I've "converted" dozens of my friends and family with the Smoore M series (aka Intellicig!) - it's a mighty performer and perfect in every way for someone totally new to Vaping! In fact thanks to it's PCC, it's still one of my faves even now! They are available all over the place but the best price I've found is naturally direct from China www.dinodirect.com/Electronic-Cigarette-M6.htmlIt's worth bearing in mind that Vaping is not for everyone so don't go crazy with your first order! See how you like it ....... and if you love it (which you probably will!) ....... then go crazy!
