chefs vapour rebranded range double menthol is a fantastic concentrate if you don't want to go down the crystal route. It's very crisp and extremely strong. Mix it at around 4% for a menthol blast. I tried 6% first time and couldn't vape it as it was so overpowering. 2% is good for a weaker menthol or as an additive to another juice.

50% PG is quite high for a dripper imo. If thats your normal mix, a 70vg 30pg might well tone down the harshness for you and as stated previously drop the nic content. If 9mg is your usual then go to 9 or even 6mg liquids on your dripper.
Looking at your image, it appears that this dripper is designed to be ran dual coil at higher power (2nd airhole, perhaps can be closed off, and the large airholes and wide bore drip tip indicate a high watts dripper design)
Another variable is the heat flux of the build you use. A thicker wire and lower resistance coil could well cool down the vape for you if you find it too warm.

They say I might as well face the truth,
That my nemmy's just too long in the tooth,
It's started to deteriorate,
And now It's past my own sell-by date
I'll add myself to the list and if I gets lucky I'll pass on another mod or two on the forum since I've not found another mech I like as much as the nemmy.

2 - sonicflowjoe
3 - thatguy
Great offer you have made gary, a gent and a scholar.

Have to say that JJ black gold is my ADV at work. It's been a godsend for me. It's classified as a tobacco flavour on the site, but isn't really. It's hard to describe, like slightly charred toast with a honey spread. Sounds rank but tastes great. Jim over at JJ has always been spot on with prices and customer service. The Mrs really likes his grape as well.

I regret them all ya hear, them all!! Not my posts mind you, the Mrs posts. She joined and I got skint. Half my wages end up in china, the rest go on bills, taxes and to chefs vapour!! I honestly wouldn't mind if she vaped at least 10% of the juices and concentrates she buys. There we go, a post I'll regret in the morning when she wakes me up by jumping on my head!! (just kidding, joining here was the 2nd best thing the internet has done for us both, after all we did meet online). To be perfectly honest, the only post I'll ever regret here are any that unintentionally upset anyone. If I've made any then sorry, otherwise.....  |

I'm not a TC fan so I'd happily recommend a sigeli 100w+. They are well built and generally trouble free. Easy battery changes and one of the most reliable 510 connections Ive seen fitted as standard on a mod. The other thing I really like about this mod is that it is highly resistant to juice leakages which can kill many a mod by allowing leaks to reach circuitry.
If you fancy a mod on the cheap, the 50W smowell has served us well for the past 5-6 months. Some people have had issues with it, but if you USB charge it and take care to be gentle with the usb lead it can be a fine intro to higher power vaping.
Be wary of the kanger subbox though, it's cheap and well built, but the fixed 510 pin is a deal breaker. WE've tried countless attys on it, and only the subtank and a mutation x clone would fire on it. Orchid v2, kraken, goblin, plume veil, pyrro, doge and a few others that people have tried at vapemeets and in b&m stores all fail to fire since the pin is recessed so far.

 Then there was the mod in disguise and a hand grenade Now..... The unmentionable disguised as a mouse.  I guess more and more pass times are adopting the stealth paradigm. |

Was kinda distracted by the kids while watchng but understood it was the claimed certification that was fake, not the gear itself. They attributed the gear to a well known manufacturer and I can't remember them saying that the gear was fake, only that the safety certification was.

Paradoxically, my main times when I go vapeless for extended periods is when I'm on a recoiling/rewicking/mixing mission. Once rebuilt 7 krakens 3 goblins 2 subtanks and an orchid and made about 40 spare coils then mixed about 15 bottles of juice and didn't vape throughout. Was even worse in the bad old days of rebuilding protank heads, had at least 35 of them to do at a time.

With mech mods, the resistance you build at is determined by the atty you use and personal taste. The mod itself makes no difference. I like 0.4 on krakens, 0.5 on sub tanks and between 0.25 and 0.4 with drippers. Just be sure to stay within your cells limits.

Yup, great to make matching pairs, or even just to wrap cells bought at different times to colour code by age. Much better than markers that can rub off. And also handy for repairing those sleeves damaged by mods or poor handling.
EDIT...
And with all the fakes on the market, it makes it cheap and easy to rip off wraps to perform further check on cells for authenticity. At less than 2p a o and 1 min or so to apply..why not if you have concerns.
Even some good cells come with wraps you may not like. Torchy 25R cell wraps are a little thick for some mech mods and catch on the threads so these let you replace them when if and when they tear.
They seem a similar thickness to original sammy wraps.

How badly hit will landlords be if punters cant smoke or vape, even outside the pub? Ghost pubs arising all over the land.
As Denis Leary once said ...
What's the law now? You can only smoke in your apartment
Under a blanket, with all the lights out? Is that the rule now, huh?
The cops are outside, "We know you have the cigarettes
Come out of the house with the cigarettes above your head"
Big brother, little sister, Auntie Gertrude and third cousin BarneyBooBoo are watching!!
