Boots VG is fine Clivia, it's very thick though, so some (me included) dilute it with about 10% vodka. Vapers Emporium are good for Nic Base and VAPE15 for 15% off Forgot about the code. I never really remember them when buying my own stuff either. Must try harder

VG from boots is called Glycerin BP. If you ask for VG they won't know what you are talking about. Nic base can be bought at Vapers emporium just remember to get yourself some syringes, a couple of 1ml and a couple of 10ml will be fine. When you get the syringes cover the numbers with clear Sellotape because they will rub off if you don't making measuring impossible. Lots of people use Chefs vapour for concentrates. They seem to have all the popular brands and are a good price

Clivia if you have 10 ml base at the strength you need yes just add concentrate. For mine I would start at 1ml of concentrate, leave it a few days and then try it. You can always add more if it's too weak But for 10% you would add 1ml to 9ml of unflavoured juice, for 20% add 2 ml to 8ml of unflavoured juice

Buying the bottles of unflavoured e liquid is an expensive way to do it though. It's much cheaper to buy your nic base, pg and vg then mix your own. 72mg nic base is around £40 for 500ml which if you aim for 18mg will make 2 litres of juice. PG from ebay is about £8 per litre VG from Boots is 1.30 for 200ml Then flavour concentrates are £3 or £4 each wherever. You choose to get them Most mixes are between 10% and 20% flavouring. Just add the numbers to the mixing calculator and you can't really go wrong

nope they do that in Scotland as well - have seen that with my own eyes That was tourists. They were reeducated and allowed to leave if they promised never to do it again

The problem is that there's nothing stopping newbies reading this thread and getting the wrong impression and heading off happily to make dual coils using trustire batteries. There have been a couple of times recently not just on this forum where new vapers have dived straight in with mech mods and rebuildables with no idea about risks until it was pointed out that there are certain things to be aware of.

So if it's such a low resistance why tell someone to dual coil it and vape without knowing about their setup? A touch unsafe without high draw batteries maybe?

hi guys just recieved my order from the vape mesh company this morning and they have sent me a free spool of .42 kanthal , what can i use it for ? does anyone use wire this thick for coils? cheers Yeah, dual coil 6 wraps, cotton wick. Vapes like a train. I just got some from there this morning too. That's going to be a very low resistance. Make sure your batteries can handle it before trying something like that dual coil 6 wraps is probably way down around 0.3 ohms

Yep I have tried it. When it's new it's definitely a sweetie taste. Just like those banana shaped things you probably remember as a kid. If it steeps a while it improves a lot though and loses a bit of that. I know folks say fruit flavours don't need a long steep but I find with FA fruits they all benefit from as long a steep as possible. Banana is also a possible tank cracker as well although I haven't heard of the FA one doing it it's best to be a bit cautious maybe Do you know of a banana that tastes like the fruit, more dry rather than a sweetie? No sorry. Flavourart fruit flavours are the best I have tried so far. Not so artificial as some but don't taste completely natural either
