the charger i have, bought after recommendations in here is a nitecore D2, it has 240v ac input and 12v dc input.. you can charge the evic mini via usb with a 5v dc supply too. ebay link Just an example not a recommended seller/deal.. you may want to revisit the gearbest order and cancel the mod and order it separately as the battery shipping options are more limited and can take upto 6-8 weeks to arrive my batteries from fasttech took closer to 4 weeks to arrive, while non battery deliveries with no special options that cost extra will arrive within 2 weeks as a rule.. if batteries are in an order with more goods they will all be sent out together along the slowest route.. (you learn these tricks after being caught out... ) gearbest have a uk warehouse it only stocks a limited subset of goods, check on the ad page for the eu warehouse option, if its not on the ad page its not there, [a href="http://www.gearbest.com/warehouse/?wid[]=3"]gearbest eu/uk stocks (short delivery)[/a] |

Did you run the test to get the exact numbers of the battery? Do that, and set it up by the numbers that will come up from escribe. To me, it did a significant improvement of the battery life Test? do you mean the battery analyser ?? if so can you please describe whats needed step by step to perform this test? afaik you need a fully charged battery and a throwaway coil fitted in an atty attached to the device, and set a discharge wattage 40w reccomended??? is that it? how long will it take ? and is it safe to leave unattended?? many thanks in advance.. |

imho dont bother they only add more air into the vape and cut down on vapour so u get less flavour..
air flow drip tips are a novelty item that have no beneficial aspects
the air flow drip tip fitted to my tfv4 is just a pita, take a puff and it its weak and flavourless the drip tip vent has opened again aarrgghh!!

you should get a day or more vaping from a single battery tho that depends on how much and at what wattage you vape?? 40-60w vaping may reduce battery time to less than a day? Tank wise the TFv4 (circa £20 from gearbest) www.gearbest.com/electronic-cigarettes/pp_211748.html?wid=3 is very popular and with 6 x off the shelf coil options as well as 2 x rba coil options, its very versitile. Im currently puffing on my tfv4 on my evic mini @40w, Great flavour from its quad coil head. The Uwell crown is another popular atty at the moment, ive not tried so cant comment. www.gearbest.com/clearomizers/pp_246034.htmlthe TFV4 is a big tank and there is a mini version due out soon.. the kanger subtank mini is also a very popular atty which many comment is very easy for diy coil builds if you choose that path otherwise there are off the shelf coil options 0.5ohm and 1.2 ohm in kanthal or 0.15 ohm in nickel for TC vaping.. www.gearbest.com/electronic-cigarettes/pp_193601.html?wid=3when buying from Gearbest check where its coming from free delivery from the eu/uk warehouse takes 2-3 days while delivery from china can take significantly longer, 2 weeks or more... if using removable batteries a charger so you can charge batteries out of the mod is Very useful, but also adds to the expense.. uk source for batteries puremist.co.uk/ecigarette-accessories/pure-mist-batteries/2-SAMSUNG-25R-INR18650-25R-2500mAhChinese batteries www.gearbest.com/batteries/pp_241350.htmlwill take longer than usual goods to deliver afaik Gearbest are honest when it comes to identifying clone/copy goods, these are authentic afaik. not bought myself but i have bought these from fasttech www.fasttech.com/p/2706700 |

Cheers decoy I will look into that, could you recommend a good charger?? i assume its the supplied charger thats causing probs and not the dna200 governed usb charging?? ive got mine plugged in for usb charging atm, 3 puffs out of the box and the battery was flagged as having a weak charge  - plugging into a PC with the escribe toolkit installed warned and performed once authorised a system software upgrade as soon as i connected the dna box up.. |

Isticks are very popular, the 100w version however uses removable batteries of which it needs 2x. the 30, 40, and 50w Isticks all have built in batteries, the 40w version also has the temp control feature, tho thats optional if you use it or not. fwiw 'my pick of the week' would be an evic Mini www.gearbest.com/temperature-control-mods/pp_239874.html and its available from the uk warehouse (days not weeks to deliver) in the kit form.. www.gearbest.com/starter-kits/pp_232175.html?wid=3(kit = includes an atomiser that isnt rated very highly ..) you will need batteries on top as the evic mini has no built in battery 2 x samsung 25rs can be sourced from the uk for circa a tenner or china for a little less but a longer wait just my 2p's worth.. |

Ok So what Hcigar said was that they buy the batteries as 1300mah, and they are looking into the complaint i put yestarday about them being a bit lower than stated. However, now we are on the third batch of VT200, (expected next week)and they assured me of new batteries in the devices, and gold plated SS 510 connector instead of the brass as on the first versions, so lets see what we gonna get next week. Rob So what about the early adopters with sub standard batteries and brass 510 connectors, ??? am tempted to reject mine under distance selling cooling of period rules.. |
