The worst flavour I've had has no name ( or none that I can remember ) and it was at this years Vapefest.

At the DV tent they were doing mixing demo's , which I will be doing in the near future , and there were two guys doing the demo.The normal mixing guy handed over the flavour to the other person and he , in turn handed out a flavour to the floor, to which one person said "Diablo Poco" . DV's product description of this flavour is "A full flavoured bowl of chilli in a vape, this ‘little devil’ will be irresistible to those who like it hot" , to this he added Sarsaparilla and blackcurrent.The blend was shaken and then an invite was sent to the crowd if anyone would like a taste.A big burly guy at the back took up the challenge took a toke and was coughing for 5 minutes , and I thought to myself it can't be that bad surely.Then an invite was sent for anyone else to try.My hand shot up like an eager school boy , half my head was thinking I wonder what it tastes like and the other was thinking "WTF ARE YOU DOING ! ".The ego was passed to me.Now, my normal style of vaping is mouth to lung via two tokes , the first one being a half toke then a proper one and for some strange reason I didn't think to change this.I took the first half toke and thought " I can't taste anything at all , perhaps it needs a bit more shaking to mix the flavours together a bit more " , then half way through the second and full toke the chilli hit and then the other two closely followed.I finished the out breath with a little coughing , trying not to be as bad as the guy behind , who was still coughing.It was VILE , a childhood phrase summed up this flavour well , " It was like sucking sick through a sweaty sock , whilst sitting on a dung heap".My god, it was awful.Even the normal mixing guy said , "I'm not trying that , and you can stay away from the mixing side of the business" and to be fair I think he was to do with marketing and was showing how easy mixing can be.

I vaped, drank and eat and the flavour wouldn't go for at least an hour and I'm sure I taste buds get flash backs now.

So , it was a lesson learned , if someone says something is disgusting OR coughing their guts up , don't stick your hand up and think " It can't be that bad surely ? "

By the looks of the picture the Mini Protank 2's are the V1 , the ones without a removable drip tip , does anyone know if there the V1 or the V2 ?

Montana Screwfix have it, but I don't think you should pay £25 for the kit when mine was only £16

I think that £25 isn't to bad ,you got it at a really good price.One thing though , I can't seem to find it through the Rothenberger web site at all even under older models. 

Can you use it on the stand, as I can't find a picture of someone using it and can it be locked on ?

After making my coils for a while and just torching them with an ordinary lighter ( which isn't effective at all ) , I decided to use my plumbers Rothenberger Super Fire 2 and the results in getting a tight microcoil were great.

So , after doing this I went out and bought ( and wish I hadn't ) a smallish butane torch for coiling and it is THIS one.To say this is rubbish is a total understatement , my feelings are this is dangerous and how it EVER passed any UK testing is beyond me.Then I went on the internet and looked at others and the comments on all that I've found so far seem to be the same , either they won't light while gas is pouring out , or they fall apart in a few days , or after a period of non use they don't work at all.I certainly don't want to have to get my plumbers torch out every time I want to do coiling , it's to heavy , to big and easily knocked over , there are also many other reasons but the size of it with the foot long gas bottle is really a no no.

So , as the title suggests , does anyone know of something that I can use that is reliable , small and has a lockable ON feature ?

I'll have to see how work is going ( as I just got canned from another site that said there was going to be a years work , lying B******S ) and if I can get up there early enough.

P.S First timer if I can make it.
