Any of you guys and gals know where I can buy these (genuine) for a decent price? I tried to find some where that sold both to save on postage but couldn't. Open to other options - it's for my cuboid  Thanks as always! |

Did you check the authentication code on Nitecore's web site, there are a brand that get faked. I'll have a look when I get back from working away, vapeland have said they'll give me a full refund though Just to let you know there was no authentication code, there was some small bit of cardboard but the authentication bit was blank... |

Thank you all, will be ordering everything Thursday. Chesterfield a bit far for me atm but I think I'll take a trip there in a couple of months to have a look as the shops here in Derby are awful. I can guarantee I'll have more questions to ask when everything arrives, thanks again for the advice |

Hi all, never really read this part of the forum before - a lot to take in!
So after months of saying I'm gonna start mixing... I'm finally getting around to it later this week!
But I have questions... many questions :/
I have nothing right now.. at all - so where would you guys and gals recommend I buy everything from?
Do I buy a kit or individual items?
Looking to make a few custard juices- kreeds and lovechild. and a citrus type juice (I'd love to clone G2 vapors cactus juice). maybe lemon sherbert?
Should I start with one shots?
Best mixing calculator to use? Either online or on my phone.
I'm sure I'll have many more questions and thank you all for any help! Oh and sorry if this has been asked umpteen times before but thought I'd ask just in case things have changed - better websites or equipment to buy etc

So... the nitecore i4 intellicharger that was linked earlier in the thread just blew up...  well blew up is a slight exaggeration but it made a hell of a bang and flash when I turned it on and is now dead which means that mod and batteries are out of action until pay day when I can afford another charger. I've emailed vapeland asking for a refund, thought nitecore chargers were decent but not sure if it was user error - I've used it 2 or 3 times so far just popped the 2 batteries in and switched it on at the socket.

I'll just stick to watts for now then lol, I'm not overly fussed by TC but thought it would be a good idea to at least learn in case I want to try tc is fantastic if your doing rba's rather than stock, the only stock coils ive used so far that do tc well are the kanger ni200 0.2ohm ones in the subtank otoh I have tc running fantastically with some rba builds and power mode with some Clapton wire 4 wrap dual coils in the crius (took 4 attempts to wick it so its not dry hitting), from my limited messing about despite having several types of tc wire the biggest problem with it seems to be the mods not working right in that setting/ Definitely something I'll be looking into at the weekend! I may have come across a slight problem or it maybe normal? As the screen shows both batteries, 1 of them has dropped slightly lower than the other, is that OK? Both charged at the same time, same charger, bought together etc... |

I could be wrong, but the SS 0.5 heads have nickel legs and it can incorrectly report the temp and as such aren't suitable for temp control, but don't take my word for it I'm not entirely sure!

So... the Cuboid and the charger arrived today! Looks great, I must admit I'm a little nervous using it... Batteries are fully charged now and waiting for me to finish work and have a play around, however earlier today I had a quick blast with the uwell crown using the 0.5 stock heads and was suprised they worked with temp control? I've changed to watts for now as that is what I'm used to, I'm gonna do some research this week but wanted to ask if there was anything I should be aware of regards temp. control as I've never used it before? Will all the stock heads for the Uwell crown work in TC mode on the cuboid? Sorry for stupid questions, just don't want to blow my face off as it's a big step up for me   |

How about the cuboid from either totally wicked or joyetech. with their discount code, it comes in at £46 with 2 sony vtc batteries. Although you can chrage form the usb port, I would spend some of the £60 on a charger this month. uk source nitecore i4 = £8.99. I went for this from joyetech! Just gonna buy the charger now, thanks a lot everyone I really appreciate all of your help! |

Sorry to bother you all but I'm looking for a 60 watt plus mod that can be USB charged as I don't have a battery charger :/
Something that can fire down to 0.1 or 0.2 would be good. Prefer bigger mods as it's to replace my mvp 3.0.
I was gonna go for the istick 100 watt from dna vapes with the pair of LG hd2 batteries but wasn't sure if I could get better batteries elsewhere?
Budget can't go over £60 or cheaper is preferable which is why I'm going for USB charging and I'll get a charger next month.
As always any help appreciated - cheers guys and gals!
Edit: it's to run a uwell crown I got today.
