Put me and trude down as provisional, I thought we returned from Iceland (country not shop) that day but it turns out it's day before, mentioned it to trude and she is keen to go (strange for the only non vapor of our group, you lot obviously have something, or 7 days stuck with me she feels she needs relief lol). As long as we not suffering jet lag (it's one hour difference !!!!!!) we hope to be there for everyone to buy me a drink................then I woke up. And if your really lucky we'll bring our 2000 photos from our trip to Nevada and California (heres mart vaping in the grand canyon, heres mart vaping in a casino, heres mart getting marched off the BA flight in handcuffs for vaping on plane etc). ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) MP

I've got a V2 & V5. The other day when all my Isticks decided to die I dug out the brand new V5 and the batteries and the charger, it worked well but I cannot put up with the faff these days, charging and carrying bats, so much easier with the built in charging mods, get in car can go on charge, get in office can go on charge and you can still use them. Would not go back to the seperate bat days (unless one lasted a week). MP whereas I prefer separate batteries, even on kit with a USB charging port (like cloupor mini), get the best of both worlds and no faff to change battery with a magnetic cover ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) Dont disagree, my point was about really not having to carry spare bat and charger, usb charging gives you that freedom. Did look at the clouper, but stopped myself, you can only have so many mods lol, know that does not apply to some on here lol. MP

I'm amazed your local chemist did not have it. My locals a tiny little place but had a gallon off the shelf for £5.

scoopsThe battery will be ok as a cheap starter, but you will need extra atomisers, just for instance if your out for the day you can carry a spare full up, maybe 8 a bit of overkill, but they are cheap. I cannot point you to anything else as my anti virus has decided that FT is a bad site and wont let me into it. MP

If I have time the conversation usually goes like this:- "microsoft etc etc you got viruses" "really" "blah blah blah we must fix it" "oh you must you must" "blah blah blah blah" for about 5 mins "ok" "which operating system do you have" "red hat" "what is that sir" "its a Linux system" At that point the phone goes dead. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) MP

I read somewhere on here that Home Bargains (they also go under another name that eludes me at mo), sell a fairly decent kit for under a tenner, got some good write ups, worth investigating if you have local store. LiQuid, do some decent liquids for £1 with fast service. Good luck

I just got rid of 2 sticks by offering them free on here, it cost me a couple of quid postage but knew they were going on to be used again as spares. And the person that took them agreed to put postage cost in local charity box, so everyone wins.

My last order (istick 40) arrived in under 3 weeks, seems to be luck of the draw, now got a 30 on its way (long story on another thread), so we'll wait and see, bet the 30 takes ages because when it arrives the 40 is going back. I bought an authentic one, about just under double the price of above, still cheap enough to be disposable, but with recent experiance might try a clone myself next time.

I regard esticks as disposable, cheap if you buy them in china, my first lasted amazingly 10 months until i stupidly misthreaded it, the second one day to realise it did not hold charge (to late to return). They were 20's so i bought a 40 and have had issues, but FT have kindly offered to replace, so in the meantime needed another mod, so I ordered a 30.
Some people never learn lol.
But for £15-19 they are disposable, cigalike cost you more in my local Sainsburys
MP
PS just to add, thinking back old days, 2 packs of embassy would now cost price of istick and last 2 days if lucky !!!!
