I don't post much, but when it comes to chargers and safety i would like to offer my recommendation from my own personal experiences.
Have had many mainstream chargers over the years of vaping, most just malfunction after time, one, nearly burnt my home down (here's looking at you Nitecore !).
Spoke to : Ecolux Shop Direct.co.uk they new exactly the potential "inherent problems" and recommended a charger with external power bank, Vapecell S4 Plus V2, £36 delivered.
Will do everything a vaper could want from a charger and more, SAFELY. Had mine for nearly 3 x yrs now, very happy. Hope this helps you and others in the future.

Yep. Business as usual  More n More pods / disposables. Be glad when this phase passes and china start focusing on rda, rta, mods. particularly squonk again. Think i've got a long wait tho ! |

Just been reading about this. At first i thought ohh s#@t here we go, end of vaping as we know it ! But looking at it in more detail, it seems to be tightening up their domestic standards, clamping down on cheap internal sales ( china does not want vaping to become main stream, to much money in cigarettes ).
Re export - manufacturers / distributors have to meet the importing countries standards / regulations. So the main stream names we are used to buying, already do this, so i think we should be ok. Of course i could be completely wrong ! Time and more information will give more clarity no doubt.
Reading between the lines, think it's just an excuse to up charge prices.

Hi ghostrider1971Always enjoy reading your flavour reviews, clear, direct, witty with a personal balanced critique. Bypassing any hype and label image  . Informative to know, what you find good and, not quite so good. Positives and negatives within a particular flavour. ( allowances for: taste is subjective and different atty's will pull out different flavour notes ). Just to say, thank you for your time and effort. Look forward to your next instalment ! |

So just recieved the 70/30 pg/vg base mix it's not giving me a throat hit at all on its own but hoping once I mix the menthol crystals in that will improve ?  Hi rezello, the following additives will give you what your looking for. Purchase 10ml bottles from FLAVOUR ART.co.uk and add to your crystal mix... FLASH HIT ENHANCER - gives ' throat hit ' for zero to low nic mixes. Start by adding Drips x5 per 10ml mix. POLAR BLAST - gives additional ' ice cooling ' effect. Start by adding Drips x1 per 10ml mix. |

Unless I'm mistaken the TAIFUN is dual coil and the STEAMCRAVE is single ? Yep, your mistaken Though steamcrave produce additional build decks for optional purchase. I've found the dual postless deck to give the most and balanced flavour. |

Hi pipeman01 ... Simple answers are,
Single RTA
TAIFUN GT4 S - Simply the best single coil in last couple of years. DTL but more towards restricted dtl side. Clone makes SHENRAY or YFTK are excellent. Advise adding couple of clear glass.
Dual RTA
STEAMCRAVE AROMAMIZER SUPREME V2 OR V3 - excellent build and flavour. I found "postless" deck gives me the best flavour. Straight and bubble glass available.
( only two rta's i use daily now. All other's have been relegated to the vape cupboard !! )
MOD dual battery ( at your wattages, take your pic, but for durability and price )
VANDY VAPE GAUR-21 - All the qualities of the Aegis range but not such a lump in your hand.
P+P always use UK Express, never had any import prob's, royal mail to my door.
PS
Not used kanthal round wire for about a year now, Purchased 10 ft spools of fused clapton wire, never gone back, flavour boost suprisingly better. Cheap to buy, lasts ages. Wires i use which cover the range of resistances i want for single / dual coil builds 20 to 45 watt... KA1 3x30g + 40g , SS 2x28g + 38g , SS 2x26g + 30g
Hope this helps you

Oumier Wasp Nano Squonk Kit ( un-regulated but does have safety protections built in )
vapesourcing.com ( china )
Discount code - WaspNK
I purchased two at £16.17 each delivered via uk express !!
This one flew under my radar a couple of years ago. Not many reviews on this one, YT 'pal 702' seems to have positive review.
Only available in red/blue and gold. Bit on the bling'y side, but at this price i don't care ( Buy an RDA including a matching drip tip and get a free squonk mod ! ).
Open an account, subscribe to e.mail notifications and get 600 points = 0.87p , not much, but every penny counts when your a bargain hunter !
Not saying i can recommend this product ( as i don't have one ), but from what i've researched, i feel quietly confident. Even if it's below par i still have a decent rda or two. In the past during my shinyitis phase, I've wasted far more money on supposedly quality vape ware !

Hi thebishman. Feel your pain when a favourite mod decides it's time is up, looking at you RSQ / 510 !!
Don't know if i can help, but i have the following regulated squonk mods, new & boxed in my armageddon stash...
Sigelei Fushai 213 - 1xBlue, 1xRed ( takes single 18650, 20700, 21700 )
Picked up in sale. Been using one for about a year, no prob's so far. ( bottle little on smaller side, so suits lower wattage rda's like the KRMA single coilers ).

Hi everyone, just a quick heads up if any of you vapers out there are like me and been patiently waiting for an alternative lower cost REGULATED squonk mod, well this might fit your needs. Made by Aleader (China) and if its as well made as some of their other resin mods ie X-Drip mechanical squonk and the Funky 160, then this is going to be pretty good. Just ordered one, ( still waiting for Sigelei to release their 213 squonk - mid Nov ).
Aleader Killer BF Squonk Mod Regulated 5-80 watt Full Resin Body (choice of colours) 7ml Bottle (not sure if 510 is self adjusting)
Purchased from, Hotecig.com (formerly focalcig), currently offering 33% off Code HOTEPFV will give you additional 10% discount Free P+P airmail to UK Free Tracking No
This is the best bit... under £27 !! Delivered to my door. Thank you hotecig :-)
Hope this info may be helpful to someone. (sorry for lack of photo / image I have no idea how to do this, (bit of a techno idiot). |
