i love monkey jizz ionian! Got a 30ml bottle steeping away that I'm saving for xmas  Me too - I vape it all day every day, I can't get enough. That's a 100ml bottle half empty, and I have a 50ml bottle in the cupboard also steeping for Xmas! The good thing about MJ is that it tastes great unsteeped as well - it's much more bananary, but lacks the gorgeous caramel edge that comes with time. |

I've been doing my best to avoid this thread, and have just caught up with about 15 pages. It's only because I always get tempted to buy something when I look in here! Still, I've found my own vaping nirvana in recent months and after finally splashing out on a genuine Heron (thanks @scooby) I thought I'd post up a quick pic. From the looks of recent pages these aren't a la mode, but I love my 20x1 stuff:  |

yourgurnard - enjoy your mechs, I use very little else myself these days. Just remember that the battery won't stop when it needs charging, you have to decide when to stop using a battery. Without a charger, you won't know how much charge is in them, so please please please be careful - it can be dangerous to run them down too far.

Super fast delivery on the Heron, great communication, and perfect item in original packaging.
I've dealt with @scooby as both a buyer and a seller and would happily recommend him to anyone.

Having a pre-Christmas clear-out of stuff I don't use. All items are clones. Priced to sell, so don't wait!
All prices quoted are for paypal friends and family payments - I'm happy to take goods and services payments but the buyer will need to pay the fees. All prices include first class postage. My feedback link is in my signature.
1. Origen v2 by infinite £12 This is one of the best dual-coil drippers out there for flavour, and this clone is by infinite which means great build quality. Excellent condition. Boxed. If only I liked dripping...
2. Black Copper Stingray by infinite - £20 A fantastic 1:1 clone of this beautiful mod. There's a slight patina on the button and top cap, but will polish out for the patient. Tubes are immaculate, come boxed with the matching drip tip.
3. Red / Brass Nemesis - £15 1:1 clone with all size tubes, tubes in great condition, button and top cap are worn but work well. They'll shine up with a polish. It's the perfect xmas mod - very festive!
4. Kayfun Lite V2 with nano kit - £18 The definitive kayfun clone in immaculate condition, fully boxed.

What I normally do if I'm unsure is have a look in the completed section of the classies to see what price similar things went for recently. Without stating the obvious, they're only worth what someone will pay for them whatever the condition.

It's a knack - and it does depend on the wire you're using, and the shape of the screw. A lot of the cheap clones have screws with rounded heads, and they make it very difficult! If you are having trouble, wrap the wire all the way found the screw - 360 degrees - and pull tight before tightening. It increases the resistance slightly, but only by 0.1 ohm or so.
I keep a mini screwdriver through the coil as it makes it easier to hold, and I undo the screws just enough for the wire.
After a few recoils it becomes second nature, so persevere!

Ok, after weeks of resisting temptation, I've ordered one. It's my first vape purchase for months! Shiny silver for me, to match my Xploras that I plan to pair with it.

My work kit Gus Lord / VTC4 / Troy X Hybrid no spares just some juice to top up if needed.  The Troy X and Lord is identical to my work set-up - except I use 18500s so carry a spare, plus some cotton wool just in case. There's next to nothing that can go wrong with such a simple set up and it'll easily last me over a day. |

Have you seen the new evic supreme? I believe you can replace the threads when they wear, so it's a better option - but it's mahoosive. Of course, it'll fit on your Leo tube just fine. I've not tried it, I gave up with the v1 evic when my threads wore, but it seems worth a look for you.
Other options are a ZNA (clone most likely), or a provari, or a nice mech if you don't mind something unregulated. I manly use 18500s in a Gus mech mod - it's my all day vape at work.
Moving away from the 18500s, everyone is raving about the iStick at the moment, or you could look at a vaporshark - both have built in batteries.
