New build with less cotton looks better and works great! Cannot put a pic on here on phone though. What ohm does VTR fire down to as it is reading 0.8 and still firing? Don't quote me on this but I believe it goes down to 0.5 ohms. I know you can sub ohm on it to a degree and I saw an indoor smokers YT review where he was testing the new 0.8 ohm Kanger coils that are just out and I'm sure he mentioned it going to 0.5 too. |

No, not across the pond  I have emailed VE, there are none on the site, but I've yet to hear back....which is quite unusual! I'll have a look at the link, cannot believe it's so hard to find replacements  and the AeroTank didn't come with any. Ok, edited to say that I've emailed to ask if they have them, I don't see them listed and I'm not sure on size - if the ProTank ones would fit an AeroTank mini ??? Hi Shazza, Looks like you're sorted now but that Vipvapes Manchester place I linked to in my post a few above were great. I recieved them the very next day and I now have plenty of spares and 3 working clearomisers as a result. That link goes directly to the page, here it is again in case you get caught out like I did too. Mini Pro Tank O Rings |

I'm not sure if this is the same but I got some Lime Sparkle recently from Fair City Vapes. That appeared to be a bit oily and I was a bit unsure at first, having said that it vaped beautifully straight away with no oily flavour and after a week of steeping and a couple of hours to breathe it's as clear as day now. It goes cloudy when shaken but still goes back to a nice clear after and the taste is even nicer now.
Don't take this the wrong way and I know how impatient I am with these things but if the vendor says to leave it 2-3 weeks to steep, I'd try and leave it at least that before you contact the vendor, though I wouldn't expect any e-juice to taste of oil when vaped.
I'd honestly give it a damn good shake, leave it open for an hour, shake it again and put the lid back on, stick it in a dark place and leave it the remainder of the time they said, shaking it every couple of days.
If it's still the same, contact the vendor.

Hey all, I've found some after a lot of looking around. You can also buy the base ring from this place too, they're based in Manchester so I hope the OP isn't across the pond. O Rings |

If it's any consolation I have two Pro Tank 2 Mini's and a PT 3 mini and I've managed to not only wash an O ring from each one down the sink, I've chucked the boxes with the spares in them in the bin when I got them.
Does anyone know a good place to get the right size O rings for the above Clearo's in the UK? I've been looking for ages, I found some on Ebay but I've no idea if they're the correct size.

I feel much fitter and less wheezy. One thing I have noticed was I always thought I had a funny appetite. Some weeks I'd eat well then other weeks I'd hardly eat anything. If I went for a meal I'd always think there was too much food and leave a lot.
Since then I eat normally like others. I rarely leave food and my appetite is constant rather than going with some weeks and without on others. I don't tend to put on weight which is fortunate for me because it made me realise why some people do when they stop. Having said that I exercise quite a lot and it's become far easier since I stopped those 'orrible ciggys.

Despite trying endless different flavours, including Digbys Hooligan, which I do like very much along with Rip Trippers Mr Rips and Lime Sparkle I just keep going back to my Totally Wicked black currant flavour.

Hi richievanvapes, nice collection you have going there!  I've heard lots of good things about TW Blackcurrant, not tried it myself, although I do love Blackcurrant. Mainly I mix my own these days. Just looking at your coil picture, have you tried a micro-coil with cotton yet? If not, check out this guide really simple and easy to re-wick when necessary, giving the coil a quick dry burn in between coils, they will last for ages! Yes it was one of my first flavours. I've tried several others and they all taste nice but not a patch on the TW stuff. Like I say I've bought quite a bit and made quite a bit but nothing quite reaches the TW blackcurrant. Thanks for the guide too, I'll make a better one this weekend I think. That was just a quick first attempt to see if it even worked, more done out excitement than anything else. I was surprised though with the increase in flavour. Many thanks, I'll post results after the weekend! @djs - It's actually a bit bigger now, as said though by Toots, it's more of a case of shinyitis and the quest to find the perfect flavour. toots - Thanks for the welcome, sadly my shinyitis is in full swing. I only spend what I can afford though. Just about. |

Once again thanks for the welcomes. lairey. Hiya, I've bought quite a few flavours but for some reason, one of the first I ever tried, Totally Wicked Blackcurrant is still my favourite. I'm at work now and have that on my VTR and Rip Trippers 'Mr Rips' on the MVP. I do like that one as well. I have made a few of my own flavours having bought some concentrates from Justvape247 and also mixing together some of the flavours I wasn't too keen on. Here are a few pics, in the shoe box at the back right are mainly my own flavours I made.   decoy Thanks for the link. A few weeks back I bought an IGO W3 clone on Ebay as I'd been wanted to build my own coil watching Rip Trippers do his and also repair burnt out clearomiser coils instead of buying them in. I built the one below and it works great though I mainly use it for tasting flavours. Having said that, going forward I'd like to get more serious about it.   (Sorry about the loo in the back ground!) Many thanks to everyone else as well, chykensa, I may be down your way at the end of September so if it's near you, we'll have to have a beer or two. One quick question regarding steeping as there seems to be so much info on it, once you've steeped yours, if you do, do you leave your ejuice in a dark place or not pay much attention to where it is? All the best everyone. Rich. |

Hi All,
Many thanks for such a nice welcome, I updated my profile with my location but I'm In Chesham which is in Buckinghamshire. About 20 minutes from the largest car park in London, the M25.
If anyone is around here it'd be great to catch up and I'll keep and eye on where people are here as I often travel around Britain with work so we can try and catch up and have a vape and a pint.
Thanks again, you're all very nice. Regarding the VTR, I really like it, I'm not into blowing big clouds (I don't begrudge anyone that does either) I just like the flavour and the vapour it does produce.
Anyway, many thanks and I look forward to getting to know you all better.
Rich

Thanks djs,
Very kind of you to say hello. In truth I do have one friend but he still smokes actual ciggys as well and isn't really 'in' to it like I am. I literally stopped as soon as I bought my first Ego style vaporiser. Apart from that, no one. So this is I think a good move and it'll keep me motivated to stay away from the cancer sticks.
Ripshod,
Thanks too. I'll have a good look at the meet ups, that would be great to meet up with others. I've only joined 2 other forums but this has been the warmest response by far. I'm not into blowing big clouds or anything, I just do it for flavour and reasonable vapour. I have an MPV and a VTR, with a few different clearomizers and that does me fine.
Juice on the other hand I have coming out of my ears!
Very nice to meet you both.

Hi all,
I'm Rich Van Vapes and I gave up analogues almost 3 months ago now. Trouble is, I don't know a single fellow vaper in real life so thought I'd join a nice forum like this one to meet other like minded people and to be able to actually ask questions rather than trawling the web only to find a great deal of different opinions.
I hope I meet and make friends with many of you and I look forward to learning a lot from you.
All the best,
Rich
