Thanks VapingBad, 50W istick might be just the ticket to be honest. I've heard all the hype around the first one and have tried really hard to resist buying one. Where is the best place to get them?

Hi guys, I haven't been on the forum for a while as I found a setup that worked for me and didn't want to get drawn into anything else shiny. So I'm a bit out of touch with all the new stuff that's come out. I've been using a Hana Modz DNA30 clone which has served me well but the threading is shot and I figured it might be just as expensive to get it sorted as it is to get a new mod.
I'm after a box mod that ideally takes 2 x 18650s, just so I don't have to bother charging it too often. I'm not fussed about high wattage ones as I tend to stick at around 8W on a 1.8 ohm coil which works perfectly for me. Also you need to be able to charge it via USB. It also needs to be regulated. Does such a thing exist? Any suggestions?

Some great suggestions on here, payday might get a bit expensive. Just out of curiosity lairey. How do you find Halcyon Haze compared with T-juice? I know they are part of the same company but I've never liked any of T-juice's stuff. At £11.99 a pop I would hate for it to end up in the same place as my RA but the description sounds too good to miss.

Unfortunately I could never get on with Red Astaire, or any of the other T-Juice flavours for that matter. I realise I'm going against the flow on that one but it just wasn't for me. Spider Venom looks interesting though.

I recently got hold of some snake oil just to see what the hype was, and well, I've got through the lot in no time at all. I didn't think I'd like it because of the way I had heard other people describe it, but I think the point is that it is impossible to describe, it has it's own unique flavour.
I seem to be getting a bit bored of vapes that taste like a certain thing. What other juices are there that are completely unique to vaping? One's that are amazing but you have no idea how to describe the flavour?

How long did it take for these to arrive? I ordered on the 9th, tracking shows it got into the UK on the 17th but then the trail goes dead. Don't know how much longer I should leave it before chasing it down.

Hi, I have been looking at dropping down to zero nic (I'm currently on 10mg) but I've not properly tried it out yet. I want to get some snake oil and see what the big deal is but not sure which strength to get. Obviously I can't drop the nic content once I've got it but has anyone tried adding nic to pre-made juice? If I bought zero nic and added if I needed it, how much would it affect the flavour? I have 72mg nic base and would probably want it to come at around 5mg if I couldn't cope without the nic.

My problem with the pre-made ones are that they only mix at 80/20 which just too harsh for me for it to be enjoyable. I did use a kayfun with cotton wick with the RA at 20% and as I said it was OK but nothing special. I pretty much just use PT2s with airflow controllers and cotton wicks now. Get a great vape and it's a very low maintenance setup, I haven't spent a penny on vape gear this month and I probably won't need to for another 6 months or so, barring anything breaking. I guess it different strokes for different folks but for me, Chefs Vapour or Bumble Bee concentrates blow T-juice out the water and I got tired of trying to get T-juice ones to work for me.

Yeah I think that's why they were such a disappointment for me Q. I knew they were highly regarded which is why I gave them so many tries but just came back to the same conclusion each time. They didn't have a great deal of flavour however I mixed them. RA was the best of the lot but I'd still only give it 6 out of 10. JTR I couldn't get any flavour out of whatsoever. I just wanted to put my experience out there as it sounded like amygx was having similar problems to me.

I gave up with T-juice a while ago. For me, there are far better tasting liquids out there. I had their sample pack and they all tasted a bit weak, so I bought a couple of the concentrates so I could up the %. I had RA and JTR and after much trial and error I still never really got on with them. They all have a slight musty taste to me, maybe it's the PG they use.

Yeah I see what your saying Perpetua but if you're only going to mix at one ratio 80/20 just seems like a very odd choice to me. I would imagine the majority of people vape somewhere between 50/50 and 80/20, I've not heard of many people that go higher than that. Chefs Vapour send their samples at 65/35 which to me seems like the best compromise.

The main reason I started mixing is because I wanted to have the T-Juice flavours without using their 80/20 off the shelf stuff. I knew I couldn't be alone on this one which does beg the question as to why they only make it at such a high ratio and not give customers the choice like other vendors.

Another +1 for Smokerainbow here. I order about 30 at a time, I've just placed my 3rd order with them. Out of these I've probably only found 3 or 4 that I've bought again. It saves having hoards of liquids that you're never going to vape and at around 50p a go there's no great loss if you don't like them.

Hi guys, Chefs Flavours Lew was very kind to give me their recipe for Cowboy Jack as they no longer make it. I'm having problems sourcing one ingredient which is the Seedman Virgina Fire-Cured Tobacco Flavour. Leisure Liquids are the only place I can find in the UK that advertises it but don't seem to have any stock. I don't suppose anyone knows where I can get some or does anyone have any lying around that is surplus to requirements?
