Just out of interest, and before I press the button, what questions did Smifee ask? I'm leaning so far towards an Olive wood 18500 that I am almost flat on the floor.. On the video on Lee's website the reviewer mentions battery rattle. With the battery he was using there was a minute gap around the battery. I asked Lee if that was so and he said it was about 1/2 a mm. The reviewer put a roll of paper around the battery to cure it. I intend to use tape if I can't get one of my 2 makes of battery to fit snug. My second question was could I delay delivery if it was going to be during an upcoming holiday. Ordered mine. Hope it's here before we go away.  |

I made all the JJ mints 5 days ago. People say they are ready to go almost immediately. They certainly smelt like it but I waited 5 days. Started vaping the Spearmint an hour ago and it's lovely. I wasn't sure how different it would be to the menthol, that's my first & last vape each day, but it's very different. Much softer. JJ fruits have been steeping for 13 days but still not ready. Hope you have that Spearmint in a glass tank smifee? It's a tank cracker  Thanks for the warning. All my tanks are glass. Another of the invaluable tips I read here whilst still on the Evods. |

lairey I haven't tried any Custard liquids but am intrigued by the raves about them. Next month, after our holiday, I intend to offer some trades:- metal drip tips or I'll test your nicotine level with a test kit or custom printed labels in exchange for a sample of people's own custard with recipe. A lazy way to learn the endless mysteries of mixing but I have no shame.

I get this with all the tanks I use. I think it's condensed vapour because it's a different colour to the juice.
When I vape a home made Apple liquid the juice is a very pale green. The liquid I dab out of the drip tip with a cotton bud is brown.

Brilliant.  lairey. Now I'll have 35 needles. Is that a collection or an obsession? That's £97.60 this site has made me spend tonight. Are you DIY mixing yet smifee? If not, they will come in very handy when you start  At least I'm only to blame for £3.60 of your spend  Started mixing 2 weeks after starting vaping. I love it. Started to run before I could walk by making my own concoctions. Realised and made a load of one concentrate flavours. When they had steeped I tried 2 concoctions. Strawberries & Cream I don't like it but my wife & son both love it. Banoffee is still a work in progress. I may need a stronger banana but am just increasing the percentage at the moment. Vapemail today was 90 x 100ml glass bottles and oodles of 30ml hard plastic bottles. I've run out of PG but have 2 litres on the way. Mixed JJ mints 5 days ago and I'm vaping Spearmint as I type. Next stop Custard. Getting carried away. Must post some questions in the mixing section soon. |

You're welcome smifee It would be a shame to cover a Mor Crann, so great looking as they are, very desirable. The pouch will just be so I don't drop it. Oh dear I've just realised with a bottom fire button I'll have to take it out of the pouch to use it and flash it about with gay abandon. Don't they say 'If you've got it flaunt it'? |

Clivia No it's the Nature Vape Mini Pro. It has four filling holes. I read somewhere the new Kanger tanks have copied the filling holes. Karma I was trying to ask without giving away another of my vape cock ups I knew the way the gauge numbers went and as I was happily using 14 gauge to fill the Midi Pro I got some 20 gauge needles. By heck they are small and won't suck up my 60/40 mixes. I'm hoping someone will tell me if I need to get 16 or 18 or I'll have more needles than a dressmaker.

@scooby A picture's worth a thousand words. I've been trying it for a couple of minutes now and By Jove I think I've got it. How many others had to Google it?

lynwlt  All my other vape buys have been for practical reasons but these are just soooooooooooo beautiful. Angie & I are having some leather pouches made, to go on lanyards, next month. She has already chosen the leather for hers 'white leather with gold stars' and she says I have no taste. It's going to be hard to find a leather that will do the Mor Crann justice though.

lash151 I think the Moderators should ban your avatar on the grounds it's Vape Porn There I am reading a thread and I get to one of your posts and the 2 Mor Cranns are calling to me. 'Touch me. Stroke me. Hold me'. Get thee behind me Satan. 30 minutes later I see them again. Sod it. I'm having one. Will PM you with a couple of questions.

same as @yinyang - one hand small finger - that's in the 18350 version Thanks Clivia I've just seen that greendollar says the button only needs a light touch. So I'm going for the Spanish Olive 18650 and, if I don't see anything I like more at Vapefest, another in a different wood. That'll be the lot then. 7 devices for 7 tanks. When No 7 arrives I'm going to stop looking at any posts about new gear unless it's a V3 Provari |

I fill the Midi Pro with a 14 gauge needle but the filling holes on the Mini Pro are tiny.
Is there anyone with the Mini Pro can tell me the smallest gauge number needle that will fit the filling holes?
