perhaps not the usual burnt taste question. I have an SXK kayfun v5 and everything tastes singed, almost as if it has a hot coil leg. I've tried spaced and contact coils, SS, nichrome, kanthal and several different wicking materials. I've run it through the ultrasonic several times, used new tips, replaced all of the seals, insulators, even put a new positive post on it. And still it tastes like something is burnt. Any ideas? Cheers Could it be the Juice Control? I put some VG on the 2 O-rings, below the building deck... TBH.. I'm having a similar problem with the SXK Kayfun 5.... I've tried lifting & lowering the coil. not too keen on the Juice Control..... |

Looks like FT havent altered the GBP rate on their site,
Maybe a better idea,when using Paypal, is to use the option of your Bank's exchange rate...
$1.19 is a terrible rate, the actual rate is hovering around 1.225 to 1.23....

stu1873 Hi Stu.. Does your scales have the capacity to weigh at 0.01g? not 0.1.... These are my scales... www.creamsupplies.co.uk/on-balance-envy-digital-scale-500g-inc-batteriesHow I mix is very simple.... I measure my nicotine, PG VG, by measuring cylinders. Nicotine 10ml cylinder, PG/VG have a separate 25 ml each.. For flavours. I use weight... What is your coil resistance? (and how much power are you using ,) as you are vaping 12mg, a subohm build would be very strong nicotine hit... Regards Mike I build my coils to around 1.2 ohm and Vape at 14-15w. The 12mg was way to high and the 6mg that I used yesterday also blew my head off tbh. At first I thought I didn't shake the nic bottle enough and all of the nic was at the top of the bottle on the 12mg ones so I shook the bottle for over a minute on the 6 mg ones and the same effect. I will see how I get on with this other batch before I think of throwing in the towel. My scales go to 0.00g. I have checked them and they are slightly out but not enough for them to be the culprit IMHO. I see mate... Dont think about throwing in the towel, next time to start with, just mix of 5ml or 10ml with the new nicotine..... and see how it transpires... Also, when the new nic arrives. smell both, see if one smells different than the other, just an idea... |

One little issue I will add.... when powering down you get a dialog box to say yes or no....I have noticed my mod is still firing on its own whilst powering down with that box and nothing I can do to stop it. It also has out of the blue massively Increased the Wattage and given an extremely powerful fire rather than the 40w that was set. Hopefully just software/firmware issue.

Hi guys, I'm just about to finish my bottle of absolutely stunning lychee juice made by Bamskilicious in the Philippines. My own stupid fault - I should have bought 20 bottles of it rather than one :-( Only one place here (UK) sells Bamsklicious......and it's GBP 18 for 30ml.....not viable  Does anyone have a recommendation for an alternative lychee juice, please? Cheers, Andy Capella Sweet Lychee is very good, ... another good Lychee juice is here.. crucialvapors.co.uk/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=147&search=lycheeBamski juice, is amazing..... I love the Ripe Mango, along with Antidote..... |

milkkk . . . . as Focalecig's forum representative, are you able to offer some assistance here please. It is a most unsatisfactory situation for any customer to find themselves in. Just looked on Focalecig's Facebook page... All 'Visitor Posts' have been removed....... milkkk hasnt been online in this forum since October 19th... Has anyone heard IF their Paypal facility is functioning again?? |

Just thought I'd post my experience with Focalecig.. I purchased a Mage atomiser in August... After 1 month, the drip tip failed to screw down and falls off.. therefore leaving the tank open. I sent an email to Support.. on 4th October... They replied.. asking for a video clip to describe the problem, so I duly obliged... I asked if they could send, the specific drip tip, along with the chimney.....as either the drip tip and the chimney plastic threads were worn. These are the 2 parts..  They replied.. "Sorry can only send driptip" My reply, "It may not be the driptip, it could be the chimney(top cap) .... if you only send driptip,it still may not work... 35 days and 31 emails later... still no solution to this problem... 2 weeks ago , I was offered an $8 coupon code... I accepted..... Guess what? They cannot give me a coupon code, as Paypal is now not working.... To say, I'm frustrated with this company, is the understatement of the year.. Come back 'Doris' -- all is forgiven... PS Looks as i am not the only one,having problems... |
