Ego aio is a good option. That was my first favourite but some seem to have problems with very short coil life. Like 1-2 days. Other than that it would look perfect..

Tomorrow morning I have agreed to meet someone to give them advice on a starter kit to get them off the fags. I suspect she wants something simple and reliable to start.
Any suggestions folks?

Rayon? Never tried it. But I saw a long discussion of a fairly cheap and easy to obtain source of good quality rayon suitable for Vape wicks a while ago. Some brands of Tampons (yep!) are made from pure high quality rayon. Not the outer wrapping, just the inner absorbent section. I've never seen the stuff but apparently it's fairly simple to remove the cover then unwrap/unroll the rayon and split it up for wicking. I saw the discussion on an Oz Vaping site: Oz Forum LinkBut watch out for the RIGHT brand/type ... In OZ, the specific brand/Type is given here: Oz forum link I'm guessing there must be something similar there in the UK. * Perpetua I hope it's OK to cross link to a foreign forum but if not please kill the links. Surely that only works for a period?

Fortunately my packet at $20 came though no problem at all yesterday. Postman handed it over with a smile and not a hint of wanting my money. Even got a sticker applied to say Special Delivery. Clearly this is a random thing at the moment going by the replies on here. Me too FT '$20' package delivered on Thursday no tax. I did pay for UK packet; a few pennies. On the other hand I had a Gearbest package disapear entirely after arriving at UK customs on the 8th Dec. Never even got the chance to complain about paying tax on that.

I have a Gearbest package that arrived with UK customs on the 8th December. Not likely to ever see that.

sydsut , does that kit arrive in the packaging filled with juice ready to vape ? If it does not and I am almost certain it does not then report it to trading standards. Edit sydsut already said it contained no nicotine; the label is a false description.

So does anyone know if EVERYTHING vape related has to be registered/conform to TPD in some kind of way or are some things totally exempt ? Ive read those links that Perpetua posted & still find it a tad confusing...(its alomst like they intended to make it confusing) So only mods that have built in tanks will need to conform to tpd ? does that include sqonkers ? would the packaging for something like a mod intended for vaping have to be regulated just like coughing nails OR not because it doesnt contain nicotine ?? I'm still in the dark about nic base liquid & if/how thats going to be regulated. The UK implementation of the TPD Limits the selling of tanks to 2ml. This presumably will apply to integrated tanks/mods i.e. squonkers. It limits selling anything that contains nicotine to 20mg/ml (in practice this will mean 18). In addition 10ml is the maximum size for anthing that contains nicotine. There is aload of other stuff about getting compliance for each e-juice that contains nicotine. Nothing in the TPD that makes buying or possession of anything illegal. It just refers to sales Nothing about batteries or mods. Nothing about flavourings that do not contain nicotine.

I have six regulated mods. A Provari (five years old), 2 Xvosticks DNA 40 (both 2 years old), 2 RX200 (both 1 year old) and a Lost Vape Therion DNA75. (new)
Never had any faults or unreliability with any of them. To be fair it is a couple of years since I actually used the Provari.
BTW Amazingly after it sitting on the shelf for over a year the Provari suddenly started beeping last week to announce its battery was about to give up. I did not even realise it had a battery installed.

To get total 0.4ohms do you put in 2 0.2ohms coils in a dual coil build? No. More wire less resistance. You put two .8ohm coils in a dual coil build to get .4 ohms.

Cannot leave you celebrating this alone Bobsbeer raises to you. (my second one actually). Starting well for me; I have three attys working without leaking simultaneously. Has to be a 1st & good omen. Edit I have some pistachios & chilli crisps left over from Christmas if people want some picckies. I may even roast my chestnuts later.

just looking for a new charger as I only have an i2 and with me and the wife both using 2 batteries each its becoming a pain found the nitecore d4 and xtar vc4 anyone any recommendations on these sorry for mithering hate wasting money and would be my worst nightmare buy something I find out later to not be as good as I could of got I have used the VC4 daily for over a year; slow but very reliable. Thing is though when I have plugged it into a cheapo USB 3pin ac convertor plug the plug heated a tad. I now only use it with a more expensive higher rated USB hub (Anker) which is fine. Just my experience I am not up with the tech The Xtar VP4 is I think the same body; a few more features and comes with its own AC convertor. More expensive but if you do not already have a USB hub might be worth looking at. Just my opinions; I am no expert; wait for others views. www.xtardirect.co.uk/product-category/chargers/
