Waste not want not. I've only been vaping for 15 days. Starting out I made the same mistake as many others - I thought I would like tobacco flavoured liquids. It only took a couple of days to decide that they weren't for me. So what to do with 2 almost full and 1 half empty 10ml bottles of tobacco flavoured liquid? I poured all 3 into a medicine cup along with 4 part bottles of butterscotch, orange, cherry & chocolate. Added 10 drops of pineapple concentrate. Gave it a stir and it passed the sniff test. Used a dripper and was pleasantly surprised that there was no trace of the tobacco flavour at all. Filled 4 of the bottles and 2 tanks. That should keep me going until my own mixes are ready  |

Oh Karma what have you done  I prefer to buy from UK supplier even though it all comes from the same place originally. BUT there's a lot of small shiny things on their website that I can't find on UK sites. I have got an Aerotank & a Protank 3. I don't like the tip on the Aerotank but love the tip on the Protank so I'm swapping the tip every time I switch tanks. On the healthcabin site they've got hundreds of replacement tips to choose from. I'm like a kid in a sweetshop  Will order from them when Angie, son Pete and I have whittled our lists down. |

Used to be an early bird but the internet and winter's long dark hours have turned me into a night owl. There's always something to read or search for. I'm always up by midday though  |

Thanks BrenDLooks perfect because of the glass tank. Angie wouldn't have to worry about which juice might fill her uniform pocket. Can't find them from a UK supplier and have been reading about high delivery and possible HMRC charges ordering from China. Will keep them on Angie's wish list. |

Thanks Perpetua I hope the tag works this time. Thanks poochops for the photo. I've slept on it and I'm going for the SID but because of slight reservations about build quality and the need for backups I'll get a Provari as well. The SID for when I'm out walking or cycling with the dog. The Provari for indoor use so that if I drop it there will be a soft landing and instead of being lost outdoors it will only be 'misplaced'. Now to batteries. An Efest charger with the twice recommended Panasonics for the SID and Efest IMRs for the Provari. Expecting 2 lots of vapemail today mostly mixing gear. So having got the hardware side sorted I expect my next barrage of questions to be about mixology. |

Thanks Perpetua & @discodeshats just the info I needed. I've spent the last 30 minutes searching battery info. It's the over 3000mAh batteries I want. Just got to decide what to put them in. Leaning towards SID at the moment. I used to be indecisive but now I'm not sure. |

Oops hit the wrong button so sent post before I had finished it.
Thanks to you all for your help. I prefer the round mods to the box type.
All I have to decide is which one.

I thought you set the v or w and the power would slowly decline but the display would still show the set voltage/wattage. That ^^^^ smifee . . . most mods will also have a flashing light/warning when you're battery is almost spent and needs changing.  I like that the SID isn't telescopic. I can't find if the batteries should be protected or not. I know that's important as my son ordered a VTR from myepack this afternoon and I was able to tell him he had ordered the wrong batteries. Is there a smug smiley? Luckily he was able to phone them and change the order. Only doubt is build quality having read of switch & display problems. I'd rather spend more money to have something reliable that will last. |

Thank you keepitgoin Perpetua @djs @oneday Slowly getting there. I misunderstood the way the mods work. I thought you set the v or w and the power would slowly decline but the display would still show the set voltage/wattage. So do they show the actual voltage/wattage as the power available goes down? |

Hi All We started 9 days ago with Evod starter kits with 2.5ohm coils. I've added a Kanger Aerotank with dual 2.0ohm coils and Angie has switched to Kanger T3S Clearomisers with 1.8ohm coils. Since the additions we are both getting mucho vapour :Dbut are having to change batteries too often  . I'm assuming this is because we are using more power for the Aerotank's dual coil and the T3S's higher resistance. So does anything other than a Provari give a constant voltage? |

Hi CliviaYou are so right about the health aspect. We are both amazed at how easy it has been. Angie had been a smoker for 48 years and I have been an on & off smoker for a similar time with non smoking spells of up to 6 years. We do have a shinyitis fund though. 4200 fags & 2.5 kilos of tobacco. I feel a couple of Provaris getting ordered when the stash is sold. |

Hi Clivia Not looking for a VV and or VW yet. Trying, unsuccessfully, to find a defence against shinyitis. We only started vaping 8 days ago and found this site 6 days ago. I think I need to advise the anti virus companies that this site is carrying the shinyitis virus and it's fast acting. |
