Hi Phildo
When I was on the analouges it was either embassy regal or cafe creme cigars, I could not stand menthol type ciggies, but vaping is toatally different as you can get your full nicotine hit with any flavour at all.
It really surprised me when I discovered that the minty / menthol juices were the most tasty and satisfiying to my vaping taste and as a bonus there was no more smell than when I used to chew gum.
I have tried lots of fruity or coffee type ones that were ok and I could happily vape all day, but once I tried Extreme Ice from mount baker in the USA I was surpringly hooked, I was getting my nicotine hit and was left with a really fresh taste in my mouth, I stealth vape at work quite regular and no one has ever commented on the smell, I also use it in the car and like wise when you give someone a lift there is almost no tell tale smell, apart from a maybe a slight minty smell.
Even when I am in non smoking friends cars they have no issues with me having a few drags rather than standing outside like I would do with the stinkies.
If I was you I would try and find a discrete flavour I liked then you will have the best of both worlds, as no flavour juice tastes to me pretty rank.
You have to remember that vaping is all about replacing the hand to mouth habit and nicotine adiction, not the taste and smell, most people are happy that they no longer have that ashtray smell about them and their house

Tried using small jugs for mixing before but was always warey of pouring the left overs back into the bottles incase it contaminated the big bottles, thats why I wanted the longer needles

I have just ordered 10 of these ones. I have 2 that I use all the time at the moment, but I would like to be able to keep individual needles and syringes for each liquid so as not to cross contaminate liquids. Thanks to my Diabetic Nurse who is over the moon that I have changed to e-cigs and she keeps me well supplied with out of date syringes and once the new needles come, everything will be marked and kept seperate. I know there is little chance of cross contamination, but if I have the means, then why take the chance? Thats exactly what I do too Lobey, mark the syringes with waterproof marker for the ingredients so I am using the same ones till they look a bit duff. When I mix I tend to make between 5 and 10 bottles of flavourless mix at a strength that will end up about 18-20mg once I add 15ish percent of flavour later. Then when I need more juice it just takes a few minutes to pop in the flavour and let it steep.. Usually have two 30ml bottles ready all the time and when I use one then just make another one or two |

Well done Jack the first batch is usually a little hit or miss thats why I try and stick to single flavour mixes and then mix these together to experiment, no loss of strength if you need to keep adding  |

You can get 14 guage needles here. Thanks Lobey but it is the 4" (100mm) 14g I was hoping for, the 16g are perfect for everything except the VG but can use them if your not in a hurry. The small one in the pic is the 2" (50mm) ones from postmodern for 45p each good needles but I was getting pi**ed off having to either pour the liquids into a jug or if I left it in the bottle ended up dipping the syringe into the liquid and dripping it everywhere |

Tried these 10cm long needles last night that I got from Ebay, recon they must be about 16g and exellent for drawing up the nic base, PG, and flavours, were a bit slow for the VG so have stuck with the shorter 14g one for this. Good long reach (about twice a std needle) that gets right into the corner of a 30ml bottle with some to spare, another good addition to the mixing box  |

Mine is Bannoffee and creme, from vapeescape Coconut caramel & hazelnut honey, from frogster Grants vanila & custard, grant Chocolate and mint , from vapemania Mine used to be Cool Mint from Vermillion River but the last couple of months it is now Exreme Ice from Mount Baker a really fresh minty taste almost like chewing Airwaves chewing gum on a cold day!!! you just feel the strong minty taste in both your mouth and throat. Now I have started mixing my own I sometimes add a splash of another fruity flavour just to give it a twist ie fruit stripe, blueberry, red apple, grape etc. Never liked menthol type stinkies but this I can vape all day every day Most people that I have let try it are now converted |

Hi Folks It might sound a strange request, but I am looking for some flavourless E Liquid. Juice kitchen sells it for £2.99 for 10ml, which is reasonable, but I am interested in making my own. I am fairly confident I know what I am doing (Even without having done it before) I watched lots of video's and it looks simple enough. I have a ton of blunt syringes and used to using them (I am fountain pen nut, and use them all the time for this). Would it just be the case of adding nic base PG and VG together? (obviously I would research the exact quantities, for the right 60/40/18mg mix) Or would I be best to add some sweetener? I am after something that can be vaped, with a decent amount of smoke, but leaves no discernible smell. Also, all the bottles I have seen on video's etc, seem to be huge, can you buy smaller bottles? Ideally I would buy enough to make up say 5X30 ml bottles of it, and then it would be gone. So I can keep the mix bottles without having other bottles of chemicals lying around. and then when I am on my last bottle, I can always order more, and mix it up again. Thanks in Advance Phildo Unlike analouge cigs the smell from vaping disapears almost straight away and if you were using a menthol / minty flavour it would be no more obvious than the smell created when you are chewing gum or eating strong mints etc. I vape regular at work etc and find the only tell tale sign is the amount of vapour (smoke) the hovers above you, a few people have notice the vapour cloud but to be honest no one has ever commented on the smell. Tried no flavour juice by accident once and it tasted totally rank, if you want to stealth vape I would just use less VG to reduce the cloud Stu |

Cannot think of anyone who has not received their Vamo.  I would love to know how many forum members bought from there, it must be hundreds At least Robby... Iv'e only been here a few months and have had 2, other members seem to have had even more. Must admit it is a decent bit of kit for the money... many Uk vendors charge more than Min just for Ego kits so can see why they are so popular |

... just started drinking the vodka I'd reserved for mixing ... :-S As long as you are vaping at the same then surely that is classed as mixing  |

Never tried bestcigarettesolutions but used Price Angels a few times, quality not too bad for the money but the slow boat is sloooooooooooooow but free delivery so can't expect next day service
Before I saw Andy's Bauway group buy I used to get all my CE4 rebuildables from there for about £1.67 each delivered if you get 10 or more, never had any go missing but over the Christmas period they took 7 weeks to arrive
Last time I used them ordered EMS delivery that took 9 days, arrived one day after my 1st vamo from vapor break sent standard delivery 8 days work that out lol
