No idea really - not used any of them, and happy with kayfuns. BUT: So it didn't feel left out, I voted for the last one (squape r). Nice and even now, with one each!  So, its decided - get one of each, and let us know which one is best.  |

Yep, the day I ran out of baccy, having purchased a riva 1100 kit.
Didn't choose the date or time to give up, but that very date and time is another reason why I'll never touch a ciggie again.
That day was 31 march last year, and on a stoke of luck (Mrs fred saw me do it!), I put my last rollie out at 1:13 pm.
There's gotta be something in those numbers:
31/3/13 13:13

I had a nice simple answer, but was beaten to it  I cant really say for the premades, but I smoked about 3/4 oz of rolling baccy a day and found that I was using about 1.5-2.5ml a day. At the price I pay for juice this works out at about £3 a week. This was 18ml/mg juice by the way. This was using mini protank 2s and evod batteries. If you want to use a mod or dual coil tanks, you can expect to use more juice. With a dual coil on an evod about 3 ml a day seems reasonable. As for mods or VV batteries you can easily use 5-6ml a day.
To put your mind as ease, just use what you need. Even if you end up using more nicotine to begin with, it will still be bettwe for your health.But the rest of thatguy 's post is pertinent info as well. |

Remove the semicircular bit of plastic on the opposite side of the screen.
You ma need to prize it out with screwdriver/tweezers.
Once that is out, the board should come out easy.
Make sure you catch all the buttons though, as they'll fall out as well!

As far as you are concerned, this has nothing to do with the supplier - your contract of sale is with focalecig, not the supplier. It is down to focal to sort it with you, and then take it up with their supplier. As a registered vendor on here, I'm sure Chrissie would be interested in hearing what Foclecig has to say on the matter. You are quite right Fred but thats under uk law and the sale of goods act. I suspect Chinese law may differ. However when selling to foreign countries I think the vendor should sell according to law of the country they are selling too as an act of good faith so to speak. This in turn would raise many problems itself no doubt as I imagine the main Chinese vendors ship to many countries. Under the UN contracts for international sale of goods, I still believe the contract is with the seller, not with the supplier, and therefore it is down to focal to sort the problem out, and then raise their own, separate issue with their supplier. If focal are saying it is their suppliers problem, what is to stop them (focals supplier) passing the buck to another supplier who provided the chip, and them passing the buck to their supplier who provided the silicon for the chip, and so on? |

poor quality battery: Not feasible, putting the battery I the wrong way round or a non lithium 18650 is another matter leaking atomizer: if it is meant to be a 1:1 DNA clone this could only affect the screen as the board is conformal coated (liquid proofed) using it for to long ??? that's just silly
From: service@focalecig.com To: g.teare_************* Subject: Re:RE: hanna style mod Date: Wed, 13 Aug 2014 10:01:08 +0800 Hello, Gareth Thanks for your reply and please assure that the item was used in good conditions without any incorrect use. Please note that the quality of the battery,leaking problem of the atomizers or the over using (in long period) will caused the problem. We have reflected the problem to the supplier and will check it clearly. So sorry for any inconvenience this may cause and hope we could solve it as soon as possible. Best Regards, Eleven As far as you are concerned, this has nothing to do with the supplier - your contract of sale is with focalecig, not the supplier. It is down to focal to sort it with you, and then take it up with their supplier.

I have already sent them photos. I sent a pm to doris she said to send photos and they would send a new one out. No such luck. They sent me an email back basically saying a poor quality battery or a leaking atomizer or using it for to long could of coursed it. poor quality battery: Not feasible, putting the battery I the wrong way round or a non lithium 18650 is another matter leaking atomizer: if it is meant to be a 1:1 DNA clone this could only affect the screen as the board is conformal coated (liquid proofed) using it for to long ??? that's just silly
I would even go as far to say the electronics should stop any problems from a battery in the wrong way? Foclecig, would you like to explain focalecig's stance on these points made by VapingBad, as I agree with the above comments that this is very poor customer service. These failures to acknowledge faulty products is going to loose you a lot of customers, if they can't be resolved satisfactorily! |

I do use boots VG. Think it works out cheaper than clasikool, and you get a handy 200ml glass bottle when you've finished it.
Only use clasikool for pg.

Not used that vendor but looks fine at a good price  Why chance 99.8% pure when you can get 100% pure for the same price? |

@itsmeianki guess you didn't read the capital letters when I replied to your post! Seems like you did exactly what I did.  Still, robby is kindly sorting it for you. My v5 has the screw, but there was enough solder to just clag it back on if I remember correctly. Soldering the wire back to the board was a bit more difficult. |

VG is 99.8% pure! What is the other 2ml? I know its not a lot, but if its 2ml of diacetyl or something....
I'd stick with boots, or some other pharmaceutical grade!
I use clasikool pg - available direct, or through eBay.

This is looking like the north/south divide then?
Advantage south of Sunderland, fipronil products north!
Might also be too cold up here for them?
