Thanks for the replies, the screwdriver method worked well. Unfortunately it wasn't the part I was thinking, it was the base from the protank where the threads had sheared. I wonder if I can get a replacement just for that part?

I had a lovely new protank for like a week. Took it out of my pocket earlier and noticed the neck near the beauty ring was wonky. I unscrewed it thinking it was just the threads misaligned and the coil just fell out of the battery. The neck with the threads on is still stuck in there but it's totally sheared off  I don't know what to do! I'll get some pictures when I get home. Sorry if I got any of the terms wrong, is the coil the little atomiser thing in the middle? I'm still a bit new to all this. Anyone else had this? |

I was staying at my mams and ran out of juice for my e-cig. Where I live is packed with shops and stalls dedicated to vaping, my house is about 5 mins walk from a reliable Dekang stockist which is great. Where my mam lives is a bit more sparse for options. I decided the only thing to do would be to go to Tesco and grab a disposable cigalike until I got back home, but then my mam spotted a stall selling Socialites vape gear. I was intrigued and went over for a look. They have a decent range of flavours, all the basics you would expect I suppose. The woman at the stall also had samples that I could try before deciding.
First problem was the price. At £8 for 15 ml I was quite shocked, considering I was used to spending less than a fiver on 20 ml of Dekang. "That is the equivalent of 300 cigarettes", the sales woman knowingly told me. I lumped it though, as there wasn't much other option other than a similarly priced disposable e-cig which would taste nasty. I crossed my fingers that the flavour would be unreal and totally worth it.
Second problem: she didn't have any other than in med (1.6%) and high (I think that was 2.4% maybe?). I'm used to vaping 0.6-1.2% so I wasn't keen on upping the nicotine but not much choice.
The flavour on the other hand is really nice. It's.. well.. strawberry. After vaping all day I could still taste it, which was nice. Even though the nicotine meant I couldn't vape too much of it, it was still enjoyable. The vapour was nice and thick too, comparable to Dekang.
I doubt I'd buy this brand again because of the price. If it were a few pounds cheaper it would be worth it, but as it stands I'm happy enough with other brands to switch to these.

I'm now the proud owner of a pair of Kanger E-Smarts  the first e-cigs that I've actually enjoyed smoking (previous were cigalikes and a CE4/eGo clone thing which doesn't vape well). The problem is I'm always out and about different places so I need to take a few supplies with me. I've seen some carry cases in shops where they protect the vape and let you keep everything in one place but they're not really suited to my needs. I need to design something which can carry: - My two E-Smarts held in place securely - Charging cable and USB wall plug - 10 ml e-juice bottle ... and fit in a ladies handbag quite easily. Something like this myepack.co.uk/accessories/case.htmlOnly more stylish looking. I'm wondering if I can convert a purse or handheld console case or something? Anyone got any ideas? Do you use a carry case? |

Chased it up - royal mail had returned it to sender without even attempting delivery. I thought they were supposed to keep it at the DO for a few weeks at least but they said it's already on it's way back. Maybe the label came off in transit or something? Who knows. At least it's not missing. I'm getting another sent out ASAP which I'm happy about so hopefully should be here shortly |

I ordered my first proper e-cig from Myepack on Friday night. On Saturday I got an email saying it had been shipped - really pleased about that as I didn't expect it to be dispatched until Monday, so Myepack lived up to the reviews I'd read on fast shipping. However, the tracking code I was emailed doesn't work and it still hasn't arrived as of today. I rang Royal Mail about it and gave them the code. They were clueless and just said to contact the retailer because they couldn't find it on their system, which I did (on Monday). The guy said it should be shipped that day, was a bit confused as the email said it was already shipped, but I thought I'd just wait for it to come. Anyway the tracking code still doesn't work so I'm assuming it's lost somewhere in the mail web. What do I do if it doesn't arrive? I'm really anxious to get it, as every day it doesn't arrive I'm just buying 'one last' pack of cigs hoping it'll show up the next day. I'm really psyched to give quitting a go so now I'm just stressing out.
It was shipped Standard Delivery so I guess I should at least give it 3-5 working days, but with so many people praising Myepack for speedy delivery it's making me worried somethings gone wrong.
