I've bought 24mg Hotel, RY4 and Butterscotch from them, all were good, Butterscotch a bit sweet and the Hotel a little harsh for my taste but the RY4 is the best I've bought. There's a hint of caramel and feels a "clean" vape with no dry cough after effect, I've noticed that my iClear dual wicks last a lot longer too, taking quite while to get brown and clogged. They seem marginally more expensive at first glance but even with the postage charge, the 100ml bottles are a reasonable price and well worth it for a good quality juice.
I've also tried their more expensive premium range but didn't find them any better and the RY4 is my regular juice. I've never had cause to call customer service but delivery is prompt.

Cheers Bomber An excuse to buy a zapper lol the Iclear 30 was my reason to buy a zapper, it makes it so much easier OK - What's a "zapper"? Anyway, just bought a iClear30 from ukecigcabin (nice handwritten warning about citrus liquids) and I'm very happy with it. Looks a bit big on top of my eGo VV battery but produces lots of vapour at all settings and it holds lots of liquid. I like the moveable head and...actually I can't think of anything else to say, it's a good product, only costs £12, buy one.

After three weeks, the side effects I'm experiencing that are specifically vap related, as opposed to due to giving up tobacco, are a dry cough, severe at times and very dry lips. As far as I can gather this is due to the PG content in the juices (all mine are 50/50), so I'll get some 30/70 and 100% VG liquids and see if that helps. In the meantime I've found that gargling with mouthwash or cough mixture helps the throat, as does frequent sips of water. Lip balm relieves the dry lips but nothing so far has stopped them drying. Other symptoms, such as mouth ulcers I put down to giving up smoking. Here's a couple of links I found useful (hope it's OK to link to another message board!): www.vaportalk.com/forum/topic/3130-vapor-cough-the-new-smokers-cough/#entry25045www.v2cigs.com/blog/2012/01/symptoms-you-may-experience-when-you-start-using-electronic-cigarettes/Oh, and I drink less coffee, it's not good for sour throats.

Hmm £59.99 for two 1350mah batteries and some pointless atomisers+carts and 10ml. For that kind of cash, if your current kit is disappointing in some way, then why not get a 1300mah spinner (or two) and some cartomisers. Atomisers and cart ridges are very old hat and quite disappointing. I bought a £40 kit with 510 attys and cartridges.....what a waste of money that was. 5 vapes per cartridge..max. Mirage do some good liquid deals, but the rest is bonkers stuff. More good info, thanks djs!

Thanks Karma, I'll look into that as well.

Just a note to say that had I read the product description more carefully I would have found the answers about the various lights mean. I got a very nice email, complete with pics from the company explaining it all, I'm a bit embarrassed but hey, I found a helpful forum and how good the company aftercare was.
Once again, thanks for all the replies, what a friendly forum this is!

Followed Karma's advice and booted up the system and I have to say I'm very happy with it. Still not sure about the voltage changes, clicking 5 or 3 times seems to produce the same result, maybe I'll get an idea when I get used to it. Should I post a review of the shop and product? I'm happy with both, not least because they sent me a PM after my first post. Sleepyduck I've got USA Mix, which I chose and an extra 10ml of something marked in pen "RY4" and "50/50" which seems a bit smoother. As an ex-rollup smoker I prefer the former at the moment. And thanks again for the welcomes!

Wow, I didn't so many helpful replies so quickly! Thanks especially to Karma and Gillies, I've now plugged it in and the little LCD panel is indicating that it's charging and the ring below the button is totally blue (unlike me, I'm much happier now).
I'll post again and let you all know how I get on.
Once again, thanks for the welcome and the help.
