from my little knowledge of vaping MarkS is right. You are right and wrong - nothing wrong with geeks Personally I would disagree and say that the juice itself is the holy grail not the atomiser ? Having tried over 50 juices yesterday thanks to zeldamum I can honestly say some of those juices (especially no. 22, I'm sure no.22 was the 'gopping' one) wouldn't taste good in any atomiser But I'd bet my left knacker that someone out there would swear blind that no.22 tasted like a virgins thighs.

You're right and wrong.
Mechs are pretty much simplicity in action for me and they do not have to be expensive to get a pretty decent one.
You are right if you have a crap atomiser or even a good one that isn't set up properly then the best mod in the world won't change that.
They are ultimately a bit of brass/steel/copper pipe you put a battery in with a connector and a switch.
Anything is worth what someone is prepared to pay for it.
If people want to geek out over such things then whats the problem? Let them. It doesn't mean that you or anyone else has too. There is plenty out there for everyone to find what they want and need.
Live and let live and be happy with your choices without worrying what others are doing.
Its all good.

I saw a Raisin concentrate on Chef's last night when I made an order and was going to get it. After smelling this Rum I kind of wished I had now. Will definitely be getting some on my next order. This is White Rum and not Jamaican Rum that I received today, has a very rich buttery odour to it. Hopefully that will come through in the vape. Have you tried the white rum yet MarkS ? I've been looking for one of those Not yet Q and probably won't get around to trying it for at least another fortnight. Currently vaping and trying out juices made on 24/06 at the minute, so it could even be longer than that before I get to it.

Do you want a dripper dalealan? I'm just putting all the stuff I need to send out into envelopes so 1 more isn't going to hurt. I don't want anything for it.

That's fasttech for you. I've never really had any issues with them myself.
Never really got into dripping to much faffing about for my liking. I have several drippers which have probably been used no more than half a dozen times each.

JEEEEBUS. now that's a LOT!!! Is that a vamo and an evic hiding at the back? Im thinking of getting an igo l from fasttech and though that was good hahaha Its a customised evic and another SVD. The vamo doesn't make it to the stand anymore, but nostalgia stops me selling her on. I have a dripper you can have if you want it?

There is a part of me that wished I had kept it simple. When my Riva 1100 kit was all I needed to be ciggie free. The Foggy clone was a nice little mod but its a genesis and I've gone right off those since using bottom fed atties. Give me a Heron or Kayfun at 1.4ohms on a Mech and I'm happy has a pig in poop. There was something about that foggarti that looked just right. Never tried a mech but I've just put the bairn off wanting one hopefully due to me worrying that it'll explode and create a new Grand Canyon in sunderland really need to upgrade as he's puffing out clouds on his mvp If I was going to advise anyone on getting their first mech then it wouldn't be a Foggarti, but its all down to personal taste really. As long as you are sensible then Mechs are pretty safe really. These are the mechs and atties I currently use.

I might be listing a couple of clone mech mods and a few clone genesis atties but I'm more or less at the end of my clear out now. It needed to be done as it was getting out of hand. If I said I still have 20+ mods left would you think I went a bit overboard? That might be considered slightly overboard hahaha have I mentioned I've got TWO ego twists and I thought that was one too many? That foggarti one you sold the other day was very purty.

reddragon I am currently having a clear out of all the vaping gear I no longer use. PM me your address and I'll send you some egos with compatible cartomisers free if you want. The cartos (lingo for cartomisers) may have been used and cleaned but still good for at least another few refills each.

I recently bought 4 different 30ml bottles of Beau flavour concentrates that were on sale at 99p each.
They were Kiwi, Tequila Sunrise, Cosmopolitan & Brandy.
I mixed them all up at 25% 11mg 60/40 PG/VG.
Tequila Sunrise
Quite a nice taste but not very strong. Might make a decent base for something but there is a strange undertone to this concentrate.
6/10
Cosmopolitan
Again this wasn't a very strong flavour and not quite sure what it tastes of. You could definitely tell it was meant to be an alcoholic drink, but not sure its a cosmoplitan. This also had a strange chemical undertone taste to it.
4/10
Kiwi
Tastes exactly like a Kiwi fruit. Very very authentic taste which is totally ruined by a horrid chemical after taste. If you used less then the actual flavour would be to weak to vape. One for the bin.
1/10
Brandy
A very authentic brandy taste and definitely the best of the bunch I bought. No chemical after taste on this one and the actual flavour is better than CCW Brandy. Only thing is it would probably need around 30% flavouring to suit my taste buds.
7/10
Don't think I'll be trying anymore Beau flavourings for vaping.

I know exactly how you feel sleedale, when I started out mixing I felt that there were so many concentrates for different recipes I wanted to try. Only thing I can say is with time you will accumulate a nice little stock of concentrates, not only for recipes you like, but also to experiment with in creating new recipes. I may have some unwanted concentrates in my mixing box, if I find some you can have them. I'll have a wee nosy and get back to you. Got to love the members here and how they help each other out. Inspired by that PM me your addy sleedale and I'll pop 10ml of CCW Champagne in the post for you too.
