Yeah, really good going, that's a very special milestone.
Great that your partner has recovered from his illness, that's very young to have something like that happen to you.
All the best.

Great stuff Clutter, they are good aren't they.
I find tipping the whole thing down at an angle (so the juice bathes the ceramic cup) every now and again, gives a great flavour and TH.
Yep, Clockworks says the carto tank version is 10mm shorter than our tanks.

lol lyn,
How about a line of tiny coffin shaped boxes to put all our dead atties and cartos in?
Biodegradable, naturally.
Seriously, that is a long time for an atty to last, been vaping at 3.7V only Lee or multi-volt?

Square / rectangular mods don't do it for me either.
Don't know why, they just don't have the buy me factor.

Blimey, you're at it now! I'm gonna have to run away screaming. Have to agree though, my choice is my clearo tank when going out...i'm tempted to drop Arry a PM, but i know Christine will go bonkers if i do! Carto tank...bonkers wife...choices choices.

Hmmm...between you and Perpy, you're costing me a fortune! First it's the Provari (hmmm nice provari), then it's a rebuildable attie, now it's a Carto tank! Please, whatever you do, don't recommend anything else, my card is starting to melt. If no one has a cheapish used one to sell, i'll get the attie from Clock and Christophe and have a look at getting a new carto tank from Arry direct next month i think. Cheers.

You going to put it into a matchbox and bury it in the garden?
My sympathies are with you at this difficult time.

I was a BT engineer years ago, and believe me the sights i saw back then would amaze most people. I was a business engineer, so in office blocks most of the time, but we still worked at people's houses when they wanted a business line etc. Let me tell you, a slightly untidy living room or kitchen with washing up in the bowl is *nothing* to BT guys. I've had jobs where i literally refused to enter the room. One place had what can only be described as a *FULL* foot deep of rubbish covering the whole room! IT was as though 10 -20 wheely bins of kitchen waste had been emptied on the floor and left to fester for a year! Unbelievable. Another was in a seemingly 'nice middle class' home, the old mum lived in the downstairs part and her son (never saw him) lived in the upstairs part, like flats almost. The downstairs was OK, nice furnishings and clean and tidy, the upstairs was another story! There was...how can i put it delicately..dog crap covering almost the whole of the upstairs...it was everywhere...and some of it had been there so long, it had turned white with age. I have never seen anything like it before or since, i called the RSPCA out to investigate that one! Needless to say, i didn't do any work in there either. Then of course, there was the stereotypical buxom blond in a very revealing and short, silk dressing gown, virtually open at top, leaving not much to the imagination! (i did the work in that one! ) Don't worry, BT engineers have seen it all before, and a lot more than you'd think!

Yep, bit weird isn't it.
Ah well, it was worth it in the end.

Seems to me that RM and / or Parcelforce make these charges up almost arbitrarily.
Perpy had a RM 'mishandling' fee of £13.50, on 'another forum' it was £14, mine was £8..?
Perhaps a trainee was the one who tore into my box...i'll rephrase that i think...who ripped my package to shreds...err..

Mine did update, but not with any real kind of regularity. It was handy for me though when it got here and was stuck in customs for a week, at least i knew it was here and going through the customs motions.

I had the tracked, dearer one, but with the time it was stuck in customs i could just as well have gone for the cheaper one. But then again, it was handy to be able to see where it was with the tracking.

Oooh safercigs..just you wait mate! You'll get the tracking ID and you'll be glued to the computer saying things like: "Why the hell hasn't this damned tracking page updated in over two days?!", "Surely it's moved on by now! It HAS to have moved on!"...and "It's in the UK! It's in the UK! Whoohoo!" AndnAnge, i'd definitely recommend getting the extension end cap and buying a set of the AW IMR 18650 batts, any other 18650 might not fit properly, and have even heard of people breaking the circuit board using batts that were too long. You might want to think about the extended warranty too. Lilac, Go for it! It's only money eh? Honestly, once you get it and play with it for a day or two, you really understand what the big deal is, i do now anyway. The way these are built, if treated properly they should last a very long time indeed. Plus, as a bonus to all that's been said about them, when it's dark and you're watching TV, the lighted button makes the whole top of my thumb a nice glowing shade of orange! (Think ET go home)....what more could we ask for...top notch vaping, and a glowing thumb!

Yes, well done to both of you wispy.
You and your partner will wonder why you ever bothered with those nasty, smelly rollies (i'm an ex 30 year smoker - tailored and rollies for the last 10 years or so)
Wife and I ditched the fags about 3 months ago, and i would never go back to fags. The smell following someone smoking in the street makes me want to heave now.
Vaping is superior to smoking in every way we reckon.
The choices involved with vaping are many and varied. A fag is just a fag.
