I get much more throat hit, vapour and flavour. That said,flavour is a higher priority for me than throat hit.

If you're like most of us you will suddenly realise that cigarettes taste shite I look forward to that day! If it wasn't so nice, it would be easy to give up! I stopped analogues the day after my kit arrived, just about a month ago.I had to go round to my mates the other day and forgot me vaping gear. After being there an hour i realised. I had a rollie off him and it was god awful. Two drags and i wanted to puke. That's when i realized i will never go back to stinkies. Funny thing was, after those two drags i DIDN'T spend the next three hours stressed out at the lack of nicotine.When i was on the stinkies full time i would be stressed at leaving my tobacco at home even if i had only gone to the corner shop!

Yeah I might give it a go, then maybe upgrade a month later lol, guess like you said would be good to get used the the variable voltage. Am I right in saying that the mini nova will be compatible and also the charger for my riva will work for the below? And is this the twist? www.vapeescape.co.uk/joyetech-ego-c-twist-vv~367Yep! I have the 1000 mah.. Its about an inch longer than the riva battery

I know financially everyone's circumstances are different but the Twist isn't expensive at all, especially with not needing to buy anything else. As we know its always good to have a backup battery. Once you have used the twist the Riva batteries just wont cut it. So consider the twist and then when your situation allows, order the Vamo from the slow boat. You then have the best of both worlds.

Well all my upgrades have been in less than one month. I don't regret buying the Twist even though i have ordered the Vamo so soon afterwards. The twist in itself is a great device and you will see a massive improvement.. especially with the Nova's. With the twist you literally just turn the end of the battery. This increases voltage and produces more vape and flavour. Different juices are better at different voltages. Personally i would get the twist to start with and see how u get on. Its very simple to use and you cant really do anything wrong with it. If your juice starts to taste burnt the just turn it back down.

Hi Lozzy. I have been on the same upgrade path. I started with a riva kit and clearos, then upgraded to an Ego twist vv and vivi nova's. The twist itself is a massive step up in my opinion. With the Twist you need nothing else. It will happily charge on the same charger as your Riva. However i have now ordered a Vamo, alas on the slow boat from China and they're now shut for the hols.So its gonna take a while. The item i ordered was a full kit for around £24 inc the body the battery and the charger and P+P. The charger may be of questionable quality but if youre not happy with it you can always pick up a better one further down the line. Vape Escape, Maplin etc.. You can also get the Vamo from Vape Escape and Charlies Vape shop.The Vamo is a different setup and uses individual batteries and need there own charger. In the UK the actual Vamo body is around £40-50 without the batteries and charger. Apparently the stainless steel is the best option due to the finish on the chrome ones coming off. Is the Vamo a big upgrade on the Twist? Time will tell

you have 2 vivi's V2 heads(flat tops) the rest are CE4's with the cone Thanks Des So no Vivi has a pin? Cos I bought two mini Vivis and two normal size. All came with 3 heads and I can only find a total of 6 heads without a pin ??? At least I have somewhere to start And in future i'm gonna be more organised

Hi all. I'm so disorganised. I had a head cleaning session and now i'm stumped. I use an assortment of nova's and CE4's. It suddenly dawned on me I have no idea which heads belong to the Nova's and which to the Clearo's The heads at the bottom of the pic seems to have a cone below the thread. The ones at the top don't have this. Also the top middle and top right have no pin at the top. Have I lost these or should be like that? Those two also have four thinner wicks and I had it in my head that they were like that because the 1.8 ohms looked different to the higher ohm heads. But in actual fact one of them is 1.8 and the other is 2.4, so that blew that theory out So, are the top heads from the Vivi's or the CE4's ? Have I lost the pin on those two heads or should there really not be one there for whatever reason? Lastly what's with 4 four strands of finer wick rather than one thicker piece? Is there a significance? Hopefully the image will attach.. if not bear with me. skydrive.live.com/#cid=A38D3D791EC17F65&id=A38D3D791EC17F65%21794

Don't apologize.. Keep making!!! I have spent way to much in the 20 odd days since I started vaping. Your Cheeky cherry is the nearest I have got to a great cherry vape, so I thought I would order some others. I just got home to be greeted with Arnold apple pie & Baz butterscotch. Sod food. Where's my dripping atty? First up Arnold apple pie! So good I may have to sell my currently steeping GVC! Baz butterscotch! OMG... Even BETTER than the Arnold Apple pie! Still gotta put them in vivi's after steeping but I think I may have found my first and second favourite juices. Thank you Russ!! So glad its payday on Friday +1 for the butterscotch Russ but i have to disagree with daveyboy Arnold's apple pie and custard is my favorite but must admit the butterscotch does linger nicely in the mouth.DAVEYBOY try Russ's Beatrice Banana now that is nice still second fiddle to AAP&Custard but boy whatever your doing keep it up bud To be fair, I love Butterscotch and the first sample I tried (cant remember where from) was a disappointment. It may be over exuberance cos I just loved this one. Trust me, I will be trying all the WOEL vapes! Meanwhile I need to throw my dripping atty away, cos at this rate there will be nothing left to steep.

I agree, I would rather trust everybody on here to do the right thing, without having to lay down any new rules.........In every walk of life you always get one............but as im from the up north I shall come up with one of our sayings, I would think he has definately pi....ed on his chips..........his selling days are over. Exactly, I have only been on here for a few weeks but I'm very active on over 30 other forums.. mainly PC related. I have honestly been shocked by the great friendly attitude on here because its very rare. As far as I can see this is almost an isolated incident. I really don't think that knee jerk reactions are the way forward. Newbies are the people most likely to have liquids to sell. Buy lots and only like a few. Shiny upgrades every few days. Are we really saying that someone who posts gibberish a hundred times can be trusted, and no one else can? I really hope not. I'm thrilled you eventually got a resolution Mary and as a Rochdale lad myself, then yeah he has really p****d on his chips but to everyone suggesting this 100 post rule, please think again.

Yeah I must admit I ordered my Riva Kit from UKecig.. I think Vape Escape where out of stock at the time after I had the Riva kit recommended. I recall i ordered first thing in the morning and I paid for next day delivery(Newbie impatience ) It didn't turn up.. I rang up and got voicemail. To be fair they rang me back three times after that. Including the following day to check that it arrived. They gave me some free liquid and a postage refund(even though I hadn't asked for it.) I have ordered more juice since and the admin side does seem lacking , but I couldn't fault the customer service.
