Flavour Craver is Karl and Lewis, you can debate the ethics of them setting up a Phoenix company having sold the Chefs name and site (but not the recipes) to Darkstar but selfishly I’m just pleased I can once again buy my beloved Strawberry Juice concentrate which is one of the only two flavours I’ve been vaping for the last um 8 years now!!
Bit pricier than they used to be but they shipped quick and it’s the right stuff.
I may give the new chefs a spin anyway just to see what they are like but they are selling the old brand names without the actual recipes which does feel slightly suspect.

Anyone got any idea where to pick one of these up these days - or something very similar? The site that sold them appears to have gone.
I'm off to the States in a month and it would appear that a very subtle device and maybe some very low vapour liquid is my only hope of keeping the nicotine pangs at bay whilst wandering around Disney...

I've tried all three of the Fred master solub arome concentrates. None of them taste anything like Red Astaire. Sadly they all tasted pretty rank (they have that drain cleaner menthol vibe going). Not been terribly impressed with any if the SA concentrates to be honest, the mothers milk was pretty yuck too.
When it comes to red Astaire the real stuff is worth the cost

Can only echo GunJack's sentiment and having now entered my fourth year (doesn't it fly, I've been bugging you lot for over 3 years now lol) without having gone near any form of tobacco after 16 years of addiction I have only one thing to say to idiot pharma lobbyists and yes it does indeed end in 'off'.

A lot of the Pico's appeal is its diminutive size - it really is seriously tiny and cute (this is admittedly coming from someone who has a weakness for small box mods).
From what I can tell the mega's need to accommodate a 22650 battery ruins that a little. Has an odd curvy thing going on too where as the little brother is just smooth lines.
But I'm biased - I really like my Pico(s)

Mike, i'm really new to all this and just bought one this morning, i asked for one which had a rebuildable coil so ended up with this. I am using a Koopor mini , what wattage do you use? What's all the rubber things in the box for and is thespare 0.2 ohm coil any good? The rebuildable coil is an optional extra (at additional cost) - you don't get it in the box with the Cleito. Its actually pretty good but I much prefer the 0.4 ohm stock coils myself. The rubber things go on top of the top cap to stop your lips getting burned at high wattage (it can get pretty warm). There's also a vape band which is for erm...well supposedly its for helping prevent smashing the tank if you drop it but I remain to be convinced myself. The 0.4 coil is by far the best stock coil for the Cleito - run it between 40-60w. The 0.2 is for 60-80w - more clouds but the flavour isn't as good in my opinion and given the flavour is so excellent on the 0.4 coils I'd stick with them. Any mod will work fine with the tank providing it can output 40w+, the Cleito does need some power to really sing.

This is what I have: 2016-07-18 14:33 Exchange Bureau in Guangzhou, returning 2016-07-18 14:33 Exchange Bureau in Guangzhou, returning notes (Redirected) 2016-07-18 08:58 Exchange Bureau in Guangzhou, has imported opening notes (return) Happened to my last FT parcel too - status changed to that on 05/07 and no change or sign of it since - sadly FT do not want to know - first claimed the courier had sent it again (but curiously enough no new tracking number or change in its status after a week - now stating 60 days before the Post Office will confirm it lost (its not lost - they sent it back to you grrr). Just about to go down the Paypal dispute route Paypal refunded over night so all good. i think I'm done with China, the replacements for the items are coming today from Amazon the day after shipping and only about a fiver more. It's not worth the hassle with FT anymore....

To be honest pre TPD I seem to remember the UK government was pretty keen on medical regulation which would leave us even more fcuk'd than we are currently.
So I have pretty much no confidence that the EU referendum result will have any positive impact on vaping full stop regardless of the outcome

Great slideshow as ever paulymeatballs but major points scored for using The Both on the soundtrack (although much as I adore that song the vocals are better in the studio version).

dreamylittledream Yeah aside from being much more compact, more solidly built, a better 510, temp control in Ni,Ti,SS and manual TCR settings, Bypass mode, upgradeable firmware, replaceable battery, ability to go down to 0.1ohm resistance in VW mode and 0.05ohm in TC mode plus 75W i agree the Pico has little more to offer than the iStick 50W. Didnt read the post did you? If if someone has no interest in TC and related bells and whistles it's not really adding much to an istick 30w aside from the replaceable battery The lady has no interest in TC or watts above 20 so pretty much everything you've pointed out above is moot. She does want long battery life for which a single 18650 is only going to get you so far....

Aside from the fact the battery is replaceable the pico doesn't add much to the party over the smaller isticks if higher watts and temp control aren't of interest. The newer Coolfire IV (100w temp control one) has a 3300 battery which is comparable to an istick 50w. It's also a lot better looking (I have slight bias here as I'm not a big fan of the 50w istick)

I'm not sure rozzie is ready to go sub ohm with 100w mods and full on sub ohm tanks i may well be wrong but looking at what she has now that seems a big jump IMHO. I would think a nautilus could well be a better bet with a istick 30 or that sort of size set up. If MTL vaping with 18mg juice isn't satisfying the nicotine need then there's only two options stronger juice is first but thanks to the TPD 20mg is the max you can buy now and the other choice is a setup which produces more vapour. You can still buy 24mg juice plus until November and even then afterwards until stocks run dry (or next May whichever is the sooner).
