What sort of kit would you recommend taking on hols? I'm thinking of a greek island beach sort of holiday for a couple of weeks - at our age that means swimming, eating and lying about - not clubbing  . I guess more than anything I'm thinking of battery charging. General queries/thoughts... Safe to charge 18650 on a nitecore using a travel adapter for the plug? Ditto for say a usb device - mvp/vv3 - plug usb cable to mains adapter to travel adapter? Sorry - we go low tech on hol so never take smartphones, tablets, ereaders, laptops or whatever so am clueless over whats plausible or safe when it comes to charging stuff up in cheap accommodation abroad! Also would you take your regular kit or have you bought cheap but does-the-job stuff you wouldn't be too upset about losing/getting sand in/getting nicked etc... As long as its safe and good enough to keep me off the stinkies I'm happy! btw - at the moment I have a vv3, mvp2 and vtr (how did that happen lol) and very shortly getting a nemmy - but I suspect that holiday is NOT the place to learn about mech mods... Thanks |

Steve (VapeStorm) - that's really kind and generous of you - it really is appreciated  Thank you! -I would like to take you up on your offer - I shall pm you shortly so I can find out where to send a self addressed stamped envelope! newdawn - I promise I'll post vapegeeks reply if they respond. Also I want to thank you for your sense of fair play in giving me first refusal. I must say the members of this forum have brought back my faith in human nature - I have had so much help, support and offers of items from people like Steve (VapeStorm) now and xs2man (on my very first post!) that have been unexpected and genuinely heartwarming - thanks folks

Thanks for that guys - good to know.
Am seriously considering getting a Nemesis - but there was only one I've come across in the uk that was supplied with the magnets. However that one is on ebay with a "no returns" policy .. hence checking out the other suppliers who don't include the magnets. Think I had looked at vapegeek but moved on as they only do the brass nemmy - completely overlooked that they do the magnets seperately. I have mailed them querying the N rating. Will post back with their reply for future reference.

You're welcome! Found another link - not VTR specific but may be generally useful for diameters :https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AjJFJFwjTejRdG9xMHB5SVlBSFJGRWJIY0YwalJRd0E#gid=0 That 19mm column does look a little sparse  |

 -could be an expensive weekend? The magnets replace the spring switch on the nemesis - prob not needed? - but its all Magnety and I like the idea and I don't know any better  See for a proper take on it!
