Anyone who has tried the Black Jack from Ebay, does it have Anise essential oil in it? (does it go cloudy when mixed & shaked?) Is aniseed flavouring possible without anise oil? I'm about to try a 5ml test at 20% concentration, 60/40 @18mg. It's so dark I can't tell if it's cloudy but there's no sign of oil separation. I've not mixed anything with so much VG: is it normal for 60/40 juices to take ages to soak in to a 306 bridgeless dripper? Edit: My tastebuds are all but non-existent but at 20% the blackjack is damn strong! Next step is to bung some in a baby Aspire and see how quickly the coils gunk up. |

Similarly, do we include the kiosks primarily selling cigalikes? I'm thinking particularly of chains like VIP Electronic Cigarettes
Lol, I'd prefer not to  My thoughts too! I tried to weed out outlets that wouldn't be useful or have some other interest to vapers (so included the vaping cafes that probably had no staff with any experience). I hope we'll limit it to retailers that sell 'proper' vaping gear (and preferably a reasonable selection of juices and spares) not just cigalikes. For instance, last week I spotted quite an extensive Shisha display in the WHSmiths at Strensham Services on the M5! Make me wonder if the recent (mostly negative) publicity concocted against vaping could actually be working in our favour. |

How did everyone else get on with the Solubarome concentrates?

Wroxham Post Office,Riverside Centre,Wroxham,Norwich,Norfolk NR12 8AJ -selling Vapouriz products(PO also a NISA) As a poi this is not a dedicated e-cigs outlet - do you think it deserves/requires inclusion Chrissie ? I'm not sure gibla53. I think we have (especially recently) added a few others that aren't dedicated e-cig outlets. However, were do we draw the line? For instance, we could actually add most pound shops as most of them sell disposable e-cigs  Similarly, do we include the kiosks primarily selling cigalikes? I'm thinking particularly of chains like VIP Electronic Cigarettes

instructions for making interlocking cardboard divider strips please lol  I started by figuring out the compartment sizes I wanted and then calculated where the intersections would be. I then made 40mm wide strips of cardboard (so I could still read part of the labels) to the lengths I wanted (6x widthways, 4x lengthways) and cut half-height slits just a couple of millimeters wide and half the height of the cardboard strips. I've actually got one drawer for 30ml and another for 10ml bottles but I'm sure it's possible to mix the sizes up within each drawer. It took quite a while with a scalpel and steel rule to create the strips but once you've got the dimensions figured out, it's straightforward. Very satisfying once it's all assembled and the bottles are securely in place. Hope all that makes sense... Edit: A picture will explain the idea better than my garbled attempt.  |

 I picked up one of these in Ikea for £9. Each drawer is 164mm x 122mm x 90mm high (so they cope with all but the tallest 30ml bottles). And I made interlocking cardboard divider strips to keep the bottles from sliding around within the drawers too much. |

CloudHouse Vapor have a great range of MBV juices including Hawk Sauce (at just about any PG/VG ratio and Nic strength you could possibly desire). Despite being based just outside Geneva, their shipping charge is less than some UK retailers. And all their prices are reduced right now! |

Greetings Vapers! Over the past couple of months I've been using a pretty ghastly 10 Motives menthol stick to halve my tobacco consumption (quite an achievement after a 40-year habit) and I'm now looking to upgrade to more sophisticated kit in the hope it'll drive me to cut down even further. Perhaps you pro-vapers could help me decide what to buy? I'm looking for:- - Fluid capacity - I'd rather not need to refill during my working day (so I'm guessing over 1.6ml).
- Duel coil - I've read and watched plenty of reviews (plus thought through the physics of the process) and I'm sold on the "two coils better than one" idea.
- Airflow control - Phil Busardo's video convinced me that airflow is key to getting a rig working exactly as you want it.
- VV / VW battery with sufficient capacity to last me through the working day.
I'm not convinced I'd be comfortable with the MVP/VTR 'fag box' size batteries but then, I suspect that the 7" long fag-shaped units will feel a bit like sucking on a magician's wand, if you see what I mean.
- A spare low-capacity battery solely to use while the main one is charging.
- Plus I guess, a spare head or two for trying out new juices - preferably cheaper than the main unit.
- USB charger
And in direct opposition to all these, I'm after something that's not huge or too ridiculously expensive. Oh, and due to frequently working in high-security areas, the Cool Fire 2 is out due to it looking too much like a bloody grenade! Currently on my shopping list I have the Kanger Aerotank plus Vision Spinner 1300mah though I think it looks stupidly top-heavy and rather ugly with the eGo connecting collar. Over to you folks. How should I spend my dwindling spondoolics? |
