I go away a lot, I take my intellicharger i4 and 4 18650s, nemi clone and a dripper (atomic). Also a bit of wire and some cotton and 2 x 30ml juice. The i4 works on all voltages and fine on a plug adaptor. With that many batteries you can feel safe going out for the whole day and evening without worrying about running out and chuck them on charge when you get back to the hotel. I have put white electrical tape over the LEDs as they are quite bright in a hotel room, but you can still see them through the tape. If you think you will need to re-coil, take your tools in your suitcase - pre-torch your wire before you go.
A dripper is good as there is nothing to go wrong apart from burned cotton or blown coil (never had that personally) Also it won't leak on the plane due to pressure differences. Nemi clone is the same, completely reliable and trouble free.
In fact I'm back off to the States again tomorrow for a couple of days and will be taking exactly that kit with me.
I think you will be limited with a usb charged device as you can't swap batteries out.

The Kings arms in Epsom. Just around the corner from me  Nice staff, nice manager, good range of beers and 2 draught ciders! Went out friday night with a mate i hadn't seen for ages to the pub thats recently been refurbed and is under new management. I asked the lad at the bar if its ok to use my e-cig and he said go ahead, we don't mind at all! He then pointed at a chap at the bar who was vaping some kind of ego thingy. So i said thanks, vapid a nice big cloud to which the lad smiled a large smile. Went to talk to the chap, he had 3 egos and tanks with various flavours in all laid out on the bar and was saying he was just about to buy a provari and was thinking about getting a mech mod. So i pointed him to here (gave him a business card) and we agreed to meet up this friday so i could show him my bits - he was a cool guy I forgot his name though…………. Sorry if you are reading this. Very much looking forward to spending some time chatting to another vaper as I haven't really met anyone else who is enthusiastic about it like a hobby, only people who see it as a functional means to an end - stopping smoking |

Not in the topic though.. I'm not against clones, I have one or two myself, but the topic made it seem like a genuine Kayfun was broken. Thats all. I just think it should be made obvious from the offset…...

I do wish people would specify that they are talking about a clone in the topic. Or even specify that they are talking about a clone generally. Any cloned kayfun is not a kayfun, it is a clone and should be described as such…….. I'm pretty sure a genuine one has never broken like that.

I had a Bengal for 10 years, he was an annoying sod - would only drink out of a running tap, had the loudest meow in the world, always got into fights and lost so had raggedy ears and scars all over his head..... Apart from that he was a character for sure. The neighbours weren't so pleased with him, he'd wonder into their houses and pee all over the place... Little sod!

Does anyone have any proof of anything really regarding what we are vaping?
I agree that the organic argument is pointless. I just use cheapy cotton wool roll I got for £1.30. No bits in it, it's white and fluffy and seems to taste ok - in fact better than silica which also nobody knows about potential harm of inhaling broken off fragments from handling......

don't use a damp anything to clean the tip, usually a flick will get off a bubble of solder if you end up with some there. If you really need to wipe, tear off a piece of cardboard and wipe it on the raggy edge - quick swipe on one side of tip, then quick swipe on the other side. Then you need to re apply solder to the tip to use it again. Using a damp thing kills the heat and can glaze the tip. Get the iron as hot as possible, tin the parts to solder first, the quickest of touches is what you want. If you are too cool you will heat the components too much before you get the right temp to join. Always touch solder to tip first, then tip onto target, then apply solder, then remove iron and hold target steady. should all be done in one swift movement. Use a thin pointy tipped end on your iron, never buy one from maplin! I use one of these - very good portable iron: www.jbctools.com/sl2020-temperature-controlled-product-686-category-8-menu-1.htmlBeen soldering for work for over 21 years. With practise and the right iron, you can solder upside down in the dark in the middle of a rave after 10 pints and a couple of illegal tablet things  ……. not that i've done that of course……… |

I have someone very close to me in Dnipropetrovsk - right on the border between east and west and they are having a terrible time. Shops are empty, banks are shut, people are panicking. I don't do politics, but this is bad for everyone there. Seeing what is going on upsets me deeply. Whatever happens to Crimea, it's not going to stop the suffering of the rest of the country for a long time  |

Have to say, it does make me laugh about the lengths some go to to avoid the perceived dangers of bleached cotton and preaching about it, after spending many years inhaling burned tobacco and paper.

Just stick a coil on it over that air hole in the base (if that's the air hole) What could possibly go wrong? |

i have the i4 - very happy with it, bays 1+3 and 2+4 are linked together just so you know. I went for that over the xstar as you don't have to mess with spacers. If it comes with the car charger cable like mine, be prepared for about a 4 hour wait to charge an 18650. Also don't try to charge AA and 18xxx at the same time, even in different channels (just in case). And beware of flying batteries when they slip from your fingers as you are taking then off the charger, the spring is quite powerful  |

I have sky fibre unlimited. Its fast, never seen a slowdown or lost service, i stream stuff constantly and download torrents at the same time. Couldn't recommend it highly enough.
I don't have their tv though - its a rip off.
