Are you mixing this on its own or part of a recipe? I've had some for months but not used it yet, what strength are you all mixing?

Mine gets hot if I'm power vaping on a bottom coil clearo hissie, like an Evod or protank; I'm sure in that case it's the coil heating up the head of the Vamo. What type of atty are you using? |

Griff Flame your 400 mesh well, roll it and flame it some more, put a straightened paper clip down the middle before you pop it in the hole and then wrap about 5 turns of .4mm ribbon round it, connect to the positive post take out the paperclip and test the resistance before you cut off the excess, if its too high or low you can lose or add another wrap. The hole on the cobra is quite small so the wick will be thin, hence leaving the paper clip (or what have you) in place to keep it stiff. Once you got it running you can trim off the top of the wick to tidy it up. The cobra is a great atty. I couldn't say I've noticed any real difference with 300 or 500 mesh either and personally I wouldn't recommend bothering trying them

We're probably pushing 2k in 6 months which feels ridiculous but when I think about it apart from pg, vg and flavourings the two of us could vape for the next 5 years without spending any more. That won't happen obviously cos its all just too damned shineeeeey  |

The vape from the cobra compared to the RSST is much smoother and feels more dense in the mouth, I think perhaps because it needs a longer more gentle draw might contribute to the enhanced flavour maybe, maybe not? The top cap is very thick walled, it takes a short while as a unit to warm up but once it gets going it really is a great vape, the thick wall means its silent, no hiss of the airflow or sound of the juice popping. There's no logic i can think of as to why it gives a better vape but it does IMHO, that said its not for everyone as is and a lot of people drill the air hole out for an increased airflow

Did you buy a clone or an original bear2249? The original is a really nice chunk of metal and glass, its made of titanium, smaller diameter than the RSST and the wick holes are smaller requiring a thinner wick, the draw is very tight which means giving it a long more gentle toke, but the resultant vape from it tends to be more mellow and rounded than the RSST or the aga-t for example. Definitely my favourite genny even though its 120quid new, I don't think I'd pay that but their used prices are well well worth it |

We had a night out last night, we went to see Bill Bailey in the Phil in Liverpool he was really really entertaining we had a great laugh and a great night out, took our first batch of 20% Red Astaire with us for a test drive and I've gotta say its pretty damn lush, mixed 60/40 pg/vg and just in an Evod on an ego 4.2v, pretty much Vaped it during the entire show and round all the bars afterwards, in the taxi home and right up till we went to bed! To say its more ish seems a bit of an understatement! We couldn't put it down  |

PM me your address and I'll post you a couple tomorrow to keep your protank going
The lesson grasshopper is,
take what the man from china says with the same humour that was in his eyes as when he said it, as he grabbed his coat while running for the door to catch the bus 1000 miles back to his village and his folks, who he hasn't seen for a year
I ordered the Missus a new Vamo from FT two days before the holiday, dispatches next day my arse! She'll be lucky to see it in a month.
They're in a envelope, don't forget to pm your address.

Bummer really, if you send them an email it's likely going to get lost in all of the others received over their holiday, if you wait till after they get back its likely you'll have received the Itaste by the time they read it anyway and they'll be like 'well what's the problem?' I'd still contact them, well actually I wouldn't I'd have a vape and brood a bit then chalk it up to experience but I'm too laid back for my own good, pisser though  |

Personally I've come to the conclusion that anything bought from China will take longer to arrive than I'd like and less than I'd feared, its the sacrifice I take for rock bottom prices.
Sad to say but I buy vaping stuff like some sort of addict, dozens upon dozens of orders in less than 6 months and from china, USA, eu, and loads of vendors in the uk; the only swift route is uk, simple as that. Whatever I'm told from a Chinese vendor about delivery I've learned to take at most as an acknowledgement they've got my order, it'll turn up when it turns up, if I need it on time I'll order it from the uk. That said if you paid extra for DHL the least they should do is give you a credit, but the timing to sort it out is terrible

Well I'm going to start at 20% because I like my flavours strong and that also seems to make the numbers fairly even mixing at 18mg lol - here goes the learning curve I'm a huge 20% fan Dreamy, as like you I like to taste what I'm vaping. But I think I'd be inclined to go for 15% on this one . . . you can easily add a dash more if it isn't strong enough. It is actually ok for me at 15%.  You know what I've spent 3 months trialling pre blended concentrates at 10 and 15% only to beef them up to 20 and 25% in the end, I like my juices juicy! So I thought bugger it I'll go in at 20 and knock it back if its too strong. Thanks for the heads up on the steeping ill be giving it a go this weekend now instead of next  |
