Was just thinking of getting 16oz of VC 4oz of FVD 4oz of sweetener
15ml each of Pie Crust, Ripe Banana Cinnamon Danish
Comes to about $48 iirc + $32 delivery, so $80 ish 1 US oz is 29ml so thats about 741ml for less than £50
What would be the hit if customs get their grubby mitts on it?

Banana ( Ripe ) the best banana there is imo. Banana Cream. Crème De menthe. Vanilla custard Vanilla deluxe or whatever it is lol. These are all I vape just about. edited to say, where are you buying from? Direct from PA. Going to order VC, FVD, Sweetener, DDL and Cinnamon Danish anyway but wondering what else to get. I have been looking for a decent banana. thx

I am going to do a bulk order soon for some Vanilla Custard ingredients, the savings are too much to ignore. But as its only $3.80 for 15ml, i might just get some testers to try. So what PA flavours do you like?

Flavour Name: VA Pimms Manufacturer: FlavourArt UK linkConcentrate: Yes Mixed at: 10% Nicotine level: 12mg PG/VG: 60-40 Bought from : Recieved free from John at Flavourart for entering a competition. Steeping: 24 hours Tank cracker: Not that i know Vapour: Good Throat hit: Medium/high Flavour description. Even if the sun isn't shining, a vape of VaPimms will soon have you feeling like you're relaxing out in the garden with your friends and enjoying the full fresh fruitiness underscored with the distinct Gin flavour and nicely spicey in the background, it's VaPimms o'clock! Review: Only mixed this at 10% and the flavour really comes out. The description says its similar in taste to Gin & Tonic, now i have never drank a G&T so i wouldnt know, but i get a taste quite similar to Southern Comfort. Its got a fruity taste on the inhale and a nice spicey exhale. This is going to be a regular in my flavourings box. Score: 8 out of 10

I dont boil either, i just use the cotton balls from Asda, the little angels range iirc. Also if you ever decide to dilute VG, use distilled water as there is a difference to deionised water linkMain points are 1. "I spoke to the Boots Pharmacist today and asked if de-ionised water from hardware/car shops is safe to drink or inhale as vapour? His answer was a straight NO! De-ionised water from a car or hardware shop, is not fit for human consumption, by drinking or otherwise consumed. I asked him what the alternative would be? He suggested purified water, which is distilled and bottled in a sanitary manner." 2. "uoted from another thread: Deionised water is done by chemical treatment, it uses ion exchange to remove minerals and it is then recombined to make water, this removes heavy metals but not bacteria or viruses from the water. When using a deionised water from a supermarket should be safe from bacteria but they have most likely to have used chlorine to treat it so that kinda defeats the object Some time ago everyone use to use deionised water from Halfords until we starting say hey that isn't a good thing to do apart from the chance that its likely to contain some form of bacteria that may lead to pneumonia or worse it actually has a strong chance it may contain the remnants of the base chemical that was used to start the ion exchange. Please remember that Halfords stuff is only produced for car batteries or cars, there is no thought about us vaping it when it was made. Same goes for the supermarket stuff. In my opinion it is not safe to use, I am sure that some will disagree but the thought of vaping something that was made for car batteries, has harmful bacteria and could contain some base industrial chemical in it doesn't appeal to me sorry. Distilled water is the process of boiling water then condensing the liquid and that has the effect of leaving any heavy materials or solid contaminants behind and leaving pure water. As long as the containers the water goes into are sterilized then it is bacteria free. Out of the two it is the safest option in my opinion."

I am running a 0.7ohm dual coil build on my rda, using normal panasonic 10amp batteries. 0.7ohms with a 4.2v battery is using 6amps so i am well within the safety margins imo. I did try a 1.4ohm dual coil build, but it took ages to get hot. so now i stick around 0.7-0.8 Oh for future reference, have a look at this linkJust type in the battery voltage and the atty resistence and click on calculate and it will tell you the watts and amps you are using, very handy

I works out more economical to buy 72mg imo. Vapers emporium have 100ml of 72mg PG base for £11.50 link500ml of PG for £6 link500ml of VG for £4.60 same supplier linkor get it from Boots Then buy some 1ml, 5ml, 10ml and 20ml syringes and blunt tips off Ebay and i use some babies bottles or old cough medicine bottles for steeping a mix.

I've had a response from Fasttech this morning to say my tracking has been updated to 2014-05-15 18:30, RECEIVED IN UK, HEATHROW WORLDWIDE DC and not to worry, the item will be with me soon. Funny how it hadn't updated since 20th of April yet as soon as a couple of us start questioning them, the tracking updates If it isn't here today or tomorrow, i'll open the dispute just to cover my own bum. I just don't want to be left out of pocket in all of this. jcol check your tracking too. Yep, got exact same tracking info, even the time lol. It does seem very convenient that it's now suddenly updated. That was one slow flight, 35 days to land in the UK!

Hi i ordered some batteries and mods off Fasttech on the 5th April.
They were marked as shipped on the 11th of April. On the Tracking they were marked as 2014-04-20 09:53, Item sent to LONDON, MPC PMIH (KLIA)
So since the 20th of April not a thing.
I raised a ticket on Fasttech and get some standard response of "Sadly we have no means to know where exactly the package is except by filing complaint case toward the post office to institute investigation and waiting for their definite feedback within two months. "
What are my options now? Can i demand a refund or a reorder?
