Thank you. 13cm will be good for me :-)

I like the drip tip (very Aqua) on the Mini-Protank-3. Packaging looks odd though.
I suspect no-one will know the answer to this but... Does anyone know delivery times from Fasttech to Australia?

Looks really nice. If you have one, can you tell me the interia hight of the bottom compartment (wondering if it would be a good store for mixing stuff, specifically nicotine base).

Welcome simon14I concur with those above. Modam Creative is not a specialist in this particular world, but it looks like they are a business-to-business platform (import/export middlemen, if you like). Go explore mixology with gusto and enjoy trying new flavours (I'm a particular fan of Snake Oil, Accies Ambrosia and Mrs Lord's Druide & Spotted Dick). |

Consider Vape Escape and Cloud 9 Vapers. To my knowledge they are the only authorised sellers in the UK Vaping market. Both are good companies. Not sure which is cheaper when you take p&p into account

Oh, I didn't know there was such a place! I'll keep my eyes peeled. Opens some time this month. A very old friend (well, not that old but we used to scump together)... Very old friend's son has a job there. No act of kindness, however small, is ever wasted |

Sooooo ... I now need protected batteries or a link to a kick maybe ? And what's the best atty to put on it ?? Will an aero tank sit flush ?! Start with buying a couple of Vape Safe or similar fuses. any Atty will play nicely. Perhaps start with a cheap 22mm dripper if your not familiar with building your own coils. IMR batteries are best as they are chemically most stable (but unprotected, hence fuse recommendation). Multimeter or ohm meter is advisable. Other than that, Kanthal, cotton wool and willingness to learn are the remaining prerequisites. Hobbyist torch, precision screw drivers, write cutters and metal tweezers (flat ) and wire cutters....

It's a new B&M shop that has recently/is about to open at the bottom of Market Jew Street. Ecigwizard ?franchise? Next door to Little People in Market Jew Street. Used to be the Animal Hospital charity shop (think they've moved but I've not been home for nearly a year  ) |

The great thing about these ohm meters (other than accuracy - not convinced about my old SVD's readings) is that they make a great building platform

Not sure if this is still the case: The Sigele ohm meter from C9V that I bought soon after Keith started stocking was decidedly iffy using USB to drive it.
However, with my desk, I really don't need another cable kicking about...
However, with a 14500 battery it's absolutely brilliant and I heartedly recommend it.

Hey cornishbird  Great to see you've joined - I reckon you'll like it here. As I said on Youtube, thought your video was great and can be useful to many. Keep it up and don't feel obliged to demonstrate an octo-coil though. Ever. |

Thanks OneDay and @paulo I'm always a little nervous of companies I've no experience with. The group buy section is definitely worth monitoring. More importantly to me, I have a great friend in Melbourne who, for reasons I'll not expand upon, can not order things herself, so I buy here and then ship out to her. If I an order and ship direct then that would be a major boon. Thanks |

I've no experience with focalecig. What's the concensus regarding the company and their group buys based on past experience?

And vapemail arrived (complete with Vapemail stamp on padded envelope, which amused me)
And inside I find the most beautiful brass stingray... Happy Tom.
First impressions : threads clean and smooth, button throw short and light (but not so light that I can't put it down unlocked in 18350 or 18650 mode with a full Kayfun 3.1 on top).
Button is more comfortable with centre push and very smooth
There is a little lateral (angular) movement which means that if you push from the edge there is a light clickiness (but certainly not what one would call crunchy)
My impression (not tested) is that the voltage drop is low - I think lower than my Hcigar Copper Nemesis and so so oh so much lower than the SS Chi-You clone that started me on the Mech path.
I'll put some pictures up later and let folks know how I get on.
Thanks Matt.
Happy Happy Tom

Can't resist... Sorry... chykensa not sure of this will mean much to you but the amazing Jack Flan was my first Head Master and a good family friend. I think that was Nine Maidens school but I'm not certain. It's s wonderful small world. Probably back to vaping stuff now... No act of kindness, however small, is ever wasted |
