T3s are not the best bottom coil imo. They seem better than the evods because they hold more, but when you get it to less that 1/2 -1/3 full they start to leak down the centre tube. Evods may be a bit of an airy draw, but T3s are even worse. I swear by my iClear16s (though agree that they don't like being dropped) and evods (because they can take more dropping) The OH loves his mini novas, but has moved on to a Gemini, which is dual coil and works a charm. The geminis don't seem to have made it to UK yet, but they are trusty little things

They are pretty much the same thing, just different brands. I have heard good things about both, but personally have only used a spinner, and I would say that it fits all your requirements very nicely (but so would a high mah twist)

I would get a 1300mah spinner if I was you

If you had a VV battery then you can play with how hot it gets very easily. The best lower price range VV batteries are spinners and twists. If you are getting new kit, then I would suggest to you to try something like an iClear16 or an evod, as they are both a step up from the v3. It does all seem complicated sometimes, but once you get a grip on the basics then it is surprisingly simple

I had an issue with another vendor that others simply adore. I think that a small thing can become a big thing, if you don't get prompt responses to emails. For me it was a daft issue, a couple of drip tips that for two different reasons were distinctly below par. By the time I got a response I was already ticked off from how long it took, which meant that when they didn't take me seriously, I admit I became rather angry. I have yet to reorder from them, even though their track record according to others is excellent.
I guess sometimes the planets are just out of alignment or something, but vendors beware ... a small thing can lose you a customer!

It might be that your new clearos are a lower ohm than your old one, or that the new juice needs a higher ohm (higher ohm means that the juice doesn't get as hot, some juices burn more easily than others)
Sometimes it is just a dry hit like perpetua described, which may be a one off (especially if you vaped it right after filling) and will sort it's self out after a few puffs, or you will have to be more careful, as previously described.
I had a flavour that I really liked, but it burnt so easily I quickly gave up on it. It is all trial and error. A VV battery can help to cope with the needs of different juices, or you can get different heads in different ohms for your clearos.

That depends on what battery you use, we like the Efests as the performance stays fairly regular until it drops of at the end. In my experience the first few puffs feel overpowered, and then it is pleasant vaping until suddenly there is no real oomph. We have some grey ones, that drop off gradually, and so you have to change them sooner, and they always get ignored unless the Efests haven't been charged

I can't imagine it would affect the actual coils, but I have never had problems with dry hits from them, so why not try it first, you can always alter it later if you have any problems

Anybody does get a group buy going, let me know, I'll pay postage to Denmark rather than the hefty bloody customs bill I would get if I order anything directly to here.

I have just proudly and with much relief mixed up 30ml of my earl grey tea recipe, which has taken months to finally figure out. It now has it's pretty green dedicated clearo sitting next to my weird and wonderful champagne and cardamom one You gonna share that recipe by any chance? Okkies, if you bear in mind that I like things weaker than most 100% Vg base (6% nic) 10% f'arts green tea 2% f'arts bergamot 3% home steeped black earl grey tea It needs a weeks steeping to start to come into it's own I'm guessing that about 1% f'arts black tea would do instead of home steeping, but I haven't tried it yet. It is lovely and fresh without being too sweet

Nearly everything these days is a 510 fitting (the size of the screw attachment, that puts everything together) a 901 won't fit on a 510. Ego fittings are 510, which means that an ego battery can take either a 510 or an ego atty. However a 510 battery can not take an ego atty without an adapter (cheap and easy to find). Drip tips are wonderful things (basically the name for the bit you put in your mouth), but as Jen pointed out the evod ones are integral and can't be changed. With an iClear16 you can buy an adapter which will allow you to use any 510 drip tip. I suggest you forget about drip tips for now until you have the basics in order. Any clearomiser you choose will come ready to use, and you can mess with the details later I also like long draws, so I enjoy lower voltages than some. I love my spinner, but occasionally I am annoyed by the 10second cut off (if you hold the button down for more than 10secs it cuts off until you release it and press again) My pipe (which I think is what is called a mechanical mod, which means it has no electrical "guidance system") is perfect, I can keep the power running as long as I want, and it suits me when slouched in front of the telly. I also find the high VG juice is more satisfying for longer draws, as you get clouds of vapour In the beginning however you may find high vg juice a little lacking in throat hit, which some people associate with the smoking experience. Hubby and I never found a tobacco flavour we liked, although I almost like the T-juice cigar flavours, and would suggest them to you to try. He is now on coffee exclusively, and loves his coffee dekang, which at least is fairly cheap, and makes the house smell like an expensive café His second favourite is T-juice Java Juice, which has the advantage of being a clearer fluid than the dekang, and so not so hard on attys. You can also buy the concentrate for this, which means you can easily mix it yourself for economy, and messing about with nicotine levels. I vape at least 10 flavours, because I am a woman and can never make up my mind Decadent vapours absinthe is one of my favourites (and many people agree with me on this one, unlike many of the others where I am considered weird.)
