If you're going to get more clearos try to get the rebuildable ones as they're easier to maintain.

Look will you guys stop it, I'm determined not to buy anything before Christmas but you're making it very hard for me not to, especially now I'm so in love with my penny!!

For a while before I got my first proper kit I'd have between 3 & 5 a day (down from 25 a day). Once I had my Riva kit that went to one in the morning and one in the evening, then just the morning one, then none within a week.
Apart from a pack on holiday I've not had any and not really felt the need or desire. Occasionally I feel like trying one but I remember when I tried a puff on my wife's cig a few months back and it tasted foul (I even had to wash my hands immediately to get the smell off them).
While you're on the cigalikes you'll find it hard to kick the last few but I hopefully like me you'll find that once you get a "proper" kit you probably won't actually need to.
I do occasionally fall out of love with vaping (especially when I have a cold) but that's when I distract myself with new shinies.

Typically a standard WiFi router will have a 20m line of sight reception. Although this can be less due to thick walls or more due to repeaters/boosters/bridges.
I'd say it's one of your neighbour's routers that it's picking up

I'm enjoying Green Tea with Spearmint at the moment Ashmal. Here's one I posted before.  I may change it slightly next time with a tiny bit less ethyl maltol and a bit of stevia concentrate instead to sweeten it (it's not "wrong" but could perhaps be a little sweeter without the candy floss taking over). I'd also like to try it with peppermint too. I've still got 30mls made up to get through first though. |

Because under US legislation E-cigs are listed as a tobacco product and eBay (US based) don't allow tobacco products.

Just to add that I did get a response that an extender was included "yes, if you look a you will see it at the bottom left of the picture"

Now before I start... I could be way off and I'm ready to be educated otherwise, but in my mind at least, the theory holds true(ish)
We've heard bundles about Volts, what with VV being the first step beyond standard batteries on most people's vaping journey.
We've also heard about VW (Vamo, ZMax, Darwin... I'm looking at you now) and how you can screw a 3.0 Ohm carto in and get the same vaping experience as you were with a 1.2 Ohm Genesis.
By using a variable wattage device to regulate the voltage based on the Ohms of your atomiser this will give you the same taste, throat hit etc. using whatever atomiser you chose to place upon your battery.
But... The other side of this is interesting. To me at least.
Ohm's law says that P = I2R.
P=Watts, I=Amps, R=Resistance.
So based on this idea...
4.8 Watts on a 1.2 Ohm Genny will draw 1.9 Amps, but 4.8 Watts on a 3.0 Ohm carto will draw 1.3 Amps.
So surely on this basis the higher the resistance, the lower the amps drawn?
Follow me here...
So by using the highest resistance atomiser to get the best result for your personal "sweet spot" will draw less amperage.
Final step here:
Batteries are measures in "mAh" or to call it by it's full name "Milliamps Hour".
so a 1000 milliamp hour battery will give you 1 hour at 1 amp. using the above theory then should mean that you'll get longer puffing away at 3.0 Ohms that you would 1.4 Ohms.
So, based on the above rambling, you should be able to get your battery to last longer before running out with a high resistance coil than a low resistance one.
Feel free to shoot me down here as I'm hypothesising that I can get exactly the same results for longer just by changing my resistance and that just sounds plain wrong (but theoretically right).
