Well, the evod arrived, and I have to say it's really, really good for the price paid!

I was just thinking this could easily be my handy, wandering about, goto vape - then something else caught my beady little eyes!

I've just seen the protank mini at the kangertech web site! I do hope Jason at VE has some of them on order! They are absolutely going to be The One (at this size) I reckon. Not too fussed about having it with their battery though, just the tank really.

The Evod will do very nicely until then and quite probably beyond too! The drip tip is not a bad one happily.

Overall, I found the vape had a slight buttery/creamy/rounded taste added to the flavour when compared with the protank using juice from the same bottle. Given my tastes in juice that is really not too bad at all either.

So the Evod gets a Hermity  

Now let's see, the advice at the moment when abroad on the continent is to leave the EU if we don't get our way!

We need a National Vaping Party just to get the point across I suspect! LOL 

Only one item on the agenda; say no to meddling in vape!

You are a temptress, you'll have me broke! LOL 

I even rationalised it that way with the three heads myself for a bit, then I thought, a fiver is still a fiver! It's less about the price paid but more about the price asked, the 10% off will apply to both! I am however compelled to note that spare heads average about £1.99 so two of those should only be £3.98 - there's a pound gone missing (to my detriment) in this deal!

What mostly bothers me is that I'd be paying a fiver (ok, possibly 4 seen in another light) for a hole to put a much liked drip tip into! Really? Paying more  for a lack of product, I mean a hole is a lack of material when all is said and done. I know that having the hole is of course a feature too, but really!
In truth it's all a bit of a worry! 

Oh, you lot are going to have me bankrupt! LOL 

You see I am going to have been stopped two weeks on Tuesday, and I had a couple of mishaps along the way, and that saw some very slightly panic based shopping. I had my first atty die (had not foreseen it being quite that early) then the two batteries I had first of all started behaving a bit oddly, and not the same as each other, which made it look worse than it was in truth. Since found out one charging cable out of the two is quite possibly a poor quality knock off, while the one that came with the kit is fine, but really no great shakes either!

Anyway, I also bought an eG0 Twist, and that was a great purchase which allowed me to slightly soften a rather harsh first choice of e-liquid while also consolidating what had by then started to look like an iffy battery situation at the time. I also grabbed a ProTank out of interest as they rather grabbed me on first sight! I ordered some sampler juices while I was at it.

Since then I got the samples, and some xl punched cartos due to a picker grabbing the wrong pack, enquired about how to stop juice falling out of unexpected hole in side, this lead to a purchase of a Smok DCT, which I like a lot, but have decided to take a little longer learning how to get the best out of it, but once I do then it'll very likely be my number two goto for a big tank! I also grabbed some VG to cut that juice back properly and much more to my liking. Added what seemed like bare bones of kit to make that cut too.

Anyway, that all started to have things settle down a bit, but then the battery thing was starting to look wobbly again apart from the twist. I then find one morning that the 3 clearomizers I got on "special" were a bit too special, one was leaking due to cracks, another looked a bit suspect in the same way but less so, and on filling I found out was DOA anyway. The third is still sealed in it's clear wrapper, and through that I can see what look like a couple of small cracks. So it turns out they were far too "special" for my taste! 

I realised about then that if this gear fell apart any quicker I was going to be left with not a single viable device - I was determined not to roll and use a stinky, so after much but fast soul searching, I went for a Vamo, trying desperately to get away from what was fast looking like a flakey battery set up.

Vamo arrived, charged in no time on the quite a bit better than basic battery charger I got to go with it. Now that with the ProTank on top of it has made the whole thing like a night and day experience!

So to shorten an already too long story I am now back to having a little more control on the shinyitis aspect of things, and trying to decide on one of the two options I outlined in the first place. I now know I quite like kangertech, however the ability to add a drip tip of my personal choice to the vapeonly BCC means I am seriously thinking of going that route, and also allow myself to explore another maker's product in the short term too. I will come back for an evod as funds allow though as they look super as well. These items are to use on the eGo batteries I have for when I want something less heavy and more easily portable. The eGo system does have some appeal to me still, and I plan to get some pass through type cells which will allow me to get around and move away from the charger cable issues and all that stuff over time.

It's been a roller coaster ride this last 12 days, but now I am starting to be able to relax into the whole thing very nicely!

I could not have done it without all the helpful suggestions, views and opinions I have had from this great forum! Thank you all so much!

Hi all,

A baffled newbie here;

Bought a pack of 5 xl cartomizers, set them all up with differing sample flavours, all going fine, was enjoying the various flavours.

Suddenly, one I was enjoying stopped drawing. well producing really I guess, so I looked at mod display to see Lo ohms. Checked ohms reading, and it's 1.2, however it had been drawing just as well as all the others in the pack, and they are 2.8!

What on earth is going on there? Any ideas?

I'm lost on this one. ???

Thanks for this, I was sort of doing it right, however it did make me focus a bit more as to whether I might be able to do it a bit better still, and it's sort of worked. Feels like it's simply a matter of relearning a little! I'll get there eventually!

It does still need knocking back a bit though, it's just so very much stronger than my rollies would have been. I'm quite pleased in some ways as I think it's possible I was not wrong to double filter those rollies down the years! Might have saved me some trouble at least.
