Just an update. I went to vanillavapes today and got myself a Kanger Subtank , got it home and immediately put a build on the deck , and it really kicks the butt of the Mini Fogger's that I was using before.I was always running my Evod's , Protank II's and the Mini Fogger's at between 6-8 watts , now I'm running this at 12.5 watts at 1.3 Ohm's, single air hole on the Subtank.With the inclusion of one of the Siam drip tips that I got from garrydibley a few weeks ago , things are getting better. All I can say is WOW , flavour explosion. If I hadn't of had my son with me , I could have stayed all afternoon talking and trying out their juices.It was a nice relaxed and very professional looking place , the staff were all knowledgeable about what they sell , and nothing was to much trouble , just the way a B & M store should be. I know that lairey has mentioned them before and they are WELL deserved of another big mention. Andy |

Just a little update.I have found another vendor that does do this atty , the unfortunate thing is , is it's on sale at a vendor that isn't that reliable for the old customer service  . Even more unfortunate still is that I'm still really tempted to get one , have I got shinyitis or is it that I'm that desperate to get a good atty and don't mind where I get it from ? Andy |

I just started to have a look at the Egrip with Dimitri ( The Vaping Greek ) on Youtube and one of the first things he said about the Egrip as he was looking at it , even before he went further into the review is that it's wattage range is between 8-20 watts. Unfortunately this is a no-no from me just for that.I don't know why , it must be just my taste buds I guess , or the juices and flavours I like , I vape normally between 6-8 watts and very rarely up to 11 watts.Anything over that it seems to hot , no taste ( again , my taste buds ) and is just not enjoyable. After I saw this , I went over to the Joyetech website and had a good look over it.To me , I just don't like the device , again , opinions vary , but I don't like the fill method , not being able to be able to clean the tank properly and last but not least , I think it's ugly. I do think it's a very good idea to have a rebuildable deck to be added , and at a good price too , but just not for me. Here I am still looking , I sure someone will come out with something that fits my bill in the following year.I'm sure I could do all the wiring for a mod of my own , I just don't have the skills ( or tools ) to be able to make the case that I would want , otherwise I would be utilising my unexpected free time making a DNA40 styled VTR mod with a bigger ring size as I type. Andy have you not asked one of the mod makers to see if they can help you....... at least it will be a one off special I had thought about it , but the time it would take would be to long for my budget to allow , which is probably about 5 minutes at the moment , lol , but I had thought about it.

Andy Yeah agree, your own opinions count the most, you watched dimitri's vid then instead of mine  Um.. Err... Um... Err... NO , of course not  OK , you got me. I'm now just hoping that I haven't somehow totally insulted what you've said about the mod.I think I should quietly walk away before I say something else.I normally only open my mouth to exchange feet.

I just wanted to try it on my MVP , as it's the only thing that I have that it'll go on ( no money for another MOD ) and I only really use really low watts anyway with the juice I use. Myepack has them , but even with the 15% off it still works out at £27.44 with the cheapest delivery option , Andy Is it the new MVP 20watt you are wanting to put the subtank on?? No , the original MVP 2 ( without the zero , lol ). The reason for this is because , I'm trying to find a tank that's easily refillable in the field , a rebuildable ( preferably a single coil ) and has adjustable airflow on the outside. I say this because ( other than clones , which I know nothing about ) there seems to be a HUGE price gap between the likes of the Subtank and Fogger's compared to the likes of the Kayfun , Taifun , Squape R and the Russian 2.0 ( which I can't seem to get anywhere ).You go from the £30 mark to the £100+ with nothing in between.I certainly can't afford ( and justify to myself ) the £100+ tanks , especially as I was unexpectedly given the push from the job I was doing.I also think that a £100+ tank is a lot of money to spend on something that I may not even like.So , obviously a cheaper price bracket is the way to go. I , like many other were excited on hearing about the Subtank and after them being given rather favourable reviews wanted to give it a try.I'm sure as many others think that a 22mm-ish version will be coming along soon and as long as they keep the flavour and other features I'll be jumping onto this ( as long as I like the current version ) as soon as they are released. The current tank I use is a Mini Fogger on my VTR ( my first rebuildable atty ) , mainly because I work in construction and like the side by side format in a mod , so it can protect the tank and thread a LOT more than a box or tube mod with a tank on the top , plus I like the look of a side by side better.The thing is with the Mini Fogger and has also been mentioned about it's bigger brothers too , is that the vape can be a little harsh. My perfect kind of setup would be something like the tank I mentioned above and a VTR type mod ( VV/VW , 25mm approx. ring size and replaceable batteries ) which would give me a nice smooth flavour ( not muted ) and in a form factor that I like.The only other VTR styled mod I've seen with these features is the Stig Helix , which for me is mega expensive , so it's been ruled out a while ago. Sorry for the late reply and the rambling , as I've been visiting family and have been bored to tears and now just want to talk/type. Andy |

Is there anywhere else that has the Subtank on sale that has stock ? Andy I cant find anywhere either, I was up for buyng and trying as I'd read that the stock bought coils could be a pita but that the rebuildable deck is great! but they are 25mm so it would hang off everything I own and drive me mentalI just wanted to try it on my MVP , as it's the only thing that I have that it'll go on ( no money for another MOD ) and I only really use really low watts anyway with the juice I use.

No ban on ads glamorizing alcohol though  Love the Breitbart comments, CassandraKing You just couldnt make up it could you? A parody you couldnt invent more ridiculous from the liberal left controlled quango fairy land. E cigs dont promote tobacco it is probably the best and most effective method of getting smokers to quit tobacco products. Its the authoritarian nanny state mentality gone mad, they wanted a ban and they hate vaping because it is a private small company led revolution that works while still giving people all the pleasure and satisfaction smokers loved. Cant have that can we? The quango land thin lipped bullies dont like people doing stuff they enjoy, cant bear the fact that smokers got something better than smoking, cant bear the fact that it happened by bypassing the big nanny state monolith and they dont like being cut out of the PROCEEDS at all. Its petty and vindictive and spiteful and just like the quango land bullies, finger wagging tut tutting but they have a bully pulpit and they mean to use it. www.breitbart.com/london/2014/12/24/three-e-cig-ads-banned-for-glamourising-tobacco/I think my small amendment is closer to the real reason.If they had thought of it , it would be totally different.

Mine came up like this : -
"You drink like you're from the Solomon Islands, which is the 29th lightest-drinking country in the world. "
Don't know what to make of that ?

The last paragraph says it all -
"As Tavernise notes, “most experts agree that e-cigarettes are far less harmful than traditional cigarettes.” That is why the crucial question, when it comes to assessing the public health impact of e-cigarettes, is whether they compete with tobacco cigarettes or somehow expand the market for them. The evidence so far indicates that more vaping means less smoking, not the other way around. "
That's another kick in the testicles for Glantz.The sooner people like him are found out to be fraudsters and endangering the lives of people around the world and disappear for good the better.

It seems as though they have even more egg on their faces than normal with this latest battery fiasco.
I wonder where all the employees tie their horses up ?

I do like the look of the product and the review that Phil Busardo did was good to.
The thing is , you just can't get hold of it ( just one place I have found in the EU so far ) and that's virtually all over the world.There also seems to be a total lack of and spares or additional pieces for it, like a glass tank , which I think should come as standard considering the price.There isn't a company or device website , I've only found something on Alibaba and a Youtube page.
Now considering this atty is £80 , that's a LOT of money to realistically just take a punt on.
There seems to be a huge void in the market, you can either get atty's at around the £20-30 mark then virtually nothing until you get to the £80-£100 mark and then above.I'm really liking my Mini Fogger at the moment , but it is a little harsh , and the jump to another atty which would be better is huge , especially in percentage terms compared with a Mini Fogger.perhaps something other manufacturers can take advantage of.
