As I said in my previous post, no stream is better or worse than any other, if the vaping keeps us off the stinkies, then it's job done in my book Agreed, whatever floats your boat. I'm just not convinced that manufacturers are necessarily catering to those three (or however many there are) streams of vapers to an equal extent. That being said, places like FT do seem to hang on to their stocks long after the market has moved on so plenty of bargains for the more "conservative" types.

It is surprising to learn that, although there are dozens of new tanks and mods currently on the market, our member base continue to show good frugality and uses reasonably old-school equipment. Also interesting is the variety of tanks and atties in daily use, and also the number of MTL vapers within our ranks. No value judgement whatsoever, just an observation. If it works for you, . . . I thought that too - which makes me wonder why China relentlessly pumps out high end attys, tanks and mods. I'm sure that end of the market must be pretty small, at least in the UK.

So on sale locally I can see a Kanger Top Evod, Endura T18e and T20Pockex, Smok Vape Pen 22 and Aspire K2, K3, K4. Are these all pretty much the same thing? Well, I wouldn't recommend an Aspire PockeX = coils cost a fortune and don't last too well. The Innokins get good reviews/ Vaping with Vic has done a playlist for starter kits and Todd had some good things to say about the EZ Watt, though, yes, a cheap iStick with a locally available tank and coils would be just as good a place to start.

Update: got some of these, dirt cheap, fit a drill and quite hard wearing. Makes polishing a breeze

I just wish they would update the V3 Mini deck to have better posts as on the prime or v5 - building can be a real faff sometimes.
Other than that, they seem to have had the design nailed back then, their later releases don't seem to offer any improvement.

In the end I went for the NarDA, rumour has it that the one you pointed to is the Coppervape clone. I have only put on build in it so far, but it is giving good flavour and holds more than enough juice for a good sampling. For the first time I am enjoying dripping in its own right.

It's a bit tricky to see some of the labels in those pictures. Do you have a list?

This is the hidden link adblock.mahakala.is/ Please do not click it, I have no idea what that might bring up. It's a company selling affiliate links whose tech leaves something to be desired. Let's say they won't be getting too much repeat business.

Shipped this morning! Even though some items were marked 'ships next day' rather than 'in stock' and one wasn't due to ship until the 4th of November. Very random, but maybe I'll have the stuff by the weekend. Shipped with United Kingdom Express ePacket 30/10/17 now in UK Hopefullly delivered tomorrow (bites fingernails) Red card delivered today I'm sure the postie hid round the corner until I went out. Not FTs fault, 7 days is their fastest yet.

Phew that's a relief! Whilst SvoeMesto stuff is good, they might be better advised to avoid litigious behaviour and head the cloners off at the pass by not charging £100+ for a tank - they might make a lot more sales and cash by charging something closer to their true value. (IMO) My KF minis are good but still far from perfect and us plebs simply can't justify shelling out the kind of money these 'boutique' designers want for their stuff.

From FT 2 SXK Kayfun Prime Pre-ordered these a couple of weeks ago and they have now been shipped, I only vape Kayfuns and if these are as good for flavour as the Mini V3 I will follow this order up with another. I have high hopes that the Prime will be good for flavour with the 22mm configuration which I prefer I wemt to FT's site to look at this and noted that all items labelled "Kayfun" havw disappeared. They only have a few things listed under KF (Prime, Mini V3 and a very few spares). Their vast range of spares and clones seem to no longer be available, which is a bummer.

I tend to mix up my nic base by wiehgt, just because I don't have accurate gear for measuring large volumes. I'm pretty sure that VG with 15% distilled water is a lot closer to 1.0 density than pure 'dry' VG. So I assume 1g = 1ml for everything and don't worry too much. For flavours, I will measure out with a syringe the right amount for the volume I'm making and then top up the bottle with my nic base.
Not the most accurate but loads less faff.
