Ukflavours have a peppermint concentrate you could try although I haven't tried it the other flavour concentrates I've had from them in my short time diy'ing have been excellent. I know they have had a few problems with their website recently which I hope they sort soon as they have been excellent in service and quality for me so far.

I'm anti cloupor based on numerous experiences with them on a range of issues and I don't hide or deny it but I'd rather not read of any more people put at risk by this product and hope people will send the message to cloupor that they need to up their game. With so many other decent devices available there is no reason for anyone to take a chance on this mod no matter how small the risk may be we all vape for many reasons thrill seeking isn't one of them. Play safe and at least delay purchasing until a cause has been found or hopefully cloupor respond to the issue which I hope in this case they do and don't follow previous attitudes towards customers. Vape safe and happy guys.

I tried a number of their premade and all of them were either very weak in flavour or had a chemical taste most were fruit flavours but I also tried rum and butterscotch neither of those tasted of anything. If your at the end of the month with low funds maybe but otherwise avoid that said it was after purchasing from them I decided to diy so silver lining and all that.

Ukflavours do a peppermint I haven't tried it yet but if the rest of their flavours I've tried are anything to go by should be good 30ml for about £4.

70%pg&30%vg for me not too harsh carries flavour well and enough vapor for me to be happy but it really is so subjective.

Got my last lemo from provapes and they were very good on answering questions and shipping but tank was perfect so no idea about after sales service but can't see them suddenly go downhill I would happily deal with them again.

Safety is very important to me as I've helped a lot of people switch to vaping and many ask me for advice on what to buy and where to go next and sadly I will now not recommend cloupor because my experience is once they have your money that ends their dealings with you. I've liked a lot of their stuff on paper but too often the product has either disappointed or caused concern and I will no longer touch any of their products I may change that in future if they change the way they do business.

The new sigelei 50w small, plenty of power and just works plus the new version has ironed out the few issues the v2 had. I've got a v2 and I'm getting the new version as a backup because the thing just works takes a knock well and I like easy access to my battery's. Right now your spoilt for choice so much decent kit coming out it's hogs heaven in the vaping world .

I've had more trouble with cloupor then any other company their quality control is extremely hit and miss and trying to communicate with them is a total exercise in futility. Numerous mods have had power regulation issues and the t8 mod I was examining worried me that much I stopped put it back in the box and returned it, normally I'd apply the "everyone has the odd bad unit" but with cloupor it's been more then the odd unit. I had hoped things would have improved with their newer products but maybe not for any of you with or waiting for any cloupor product please keep a close eye on it and be safe.

I don't try and encourage anyone to switch from smoking to vaping I just let them see me do it and be open to a discussion about it usually people will ask me about it after they see me a few times so I let them open the door and I nudge it a bit more so to speak. People are happiest when they feel they have been in control the whole time and the whole thing was their idea you didn't do a thing subtle but in my experience works 80% of the time. Main thing about switching to vaping is that a smoker has to have wanted to quit then they are more open minded about alternatives I smoked for many years because I enjoyed it and then at some point the realities of tobacco hit and the seed was planted. As vapers our best bet is to pick the right people and work on that rather then trying to do anything en masse to large groups.

The way I answer people like that is to say no it hasn't been proven to be totally safe but it has been proven to be significantly safer then smoking tobacco and cheaper as well. If you want to be a smartas* you could reply with "mine has propylene glycol, vegetable glycerine, nicotine same as your fag, flavouring same as you eat all the time and a bit of water I'll come back in a day or two once you've run through what's in your cigarette". I prefer the former approach but have been tempted a few times to use the latter as some people can putting it politely strain my patience.

Watermelon flavouring makes me very nauseous I've tried numerous brands but always the same I think there is a flavour for everyone that we don't get on with and is best avoided. Glad you sorted it before your wife got any worse and at least your able to vape it without affecting her although she might be like me and really like the flavour that isn't good for her.

They are great tanks retired my kayfun collection to friends and family as they are just better then kayfuns. I use mine with air flow full open and get a fantastic vape also very forgiving with wicking not had a dry hit yet.

I've been trying hard to replicate this even using some friends pluid which I don't like as its very strong but still can't get my insulator to go soft only thing I can think is that my SIG 50 cannot push enough power and I don't have a higher wattage mod at hand atm. Good that kanger has responded and if they replicate the problem I'm sure they will offer a replacement insulator but for me I'm happy that my rba section is safe to vape with what I normally vape.

Will take your advice on the black cherry mikko thank you, tried the rhubarb and custard tonight curiosity got the better of me and it's a lovely vape rhubarb on the inhale subtle but nice custard on the exhale loving it and my first success with DIY. I used ukflavours concentrates with rhubarb at 15% and the custard at 10% 12mg nic and it really is giving the flavours without either being overpowering. Wives highway got another week before that's ready and black cherry got two weeks to go but taking some willpower not to load up a tank lol I've used more willpower not trying the mix then I ever did giving up analogues in the past.
