Hello, I came across this site unsure if i should order. But also look at the price of this. www.charliesvapeshop.co.uk/#/shop/4571204872/Lavatube-by-L-Rider/4189521Silver Lava tube with : 1 x lavatube body 2 x 18650 battery 2 x 510 atomizers 1 x UK Trustfire TR001 multicharger 1 x giftbox Is it worth an order at that price and delivery will be approx £2 - £4 So about £30 for everything. Or is there a reason its so cheap is it a copy or not a good make. I have never heard of L-Rider Cheers B It's not a bad price to be fair, the batteries aren't very good, they will start you off, and have seen many people through for a while, but you will want some efests, AWs, panasonics or similar before long. The charger isn't a no name instant pop type, its a trustfire, which is reasonably good to start you off, although you may want to examine the figure 8 lead, and possibly replace it for a good quality UK sourced one (stay away from ebay!) with a 3 amp fuse. It comes with 2 atties, no complaints there. TBH for £12 ish more than a tube only, it seems like a fairly good deal to me. |

In fact, on closer inspection those ones from exhale look similar to the ones we got in the group buy from vaperworld, they appear to have the spikey bit on top of the heads, and the heads also come in the same clear cellophane rather than a condom.

I dont want to start the real fake debate again, but from that picture, they do not look like the genuine Vision Vivi Novas, how good they are, I have no idea, seems some of the other manufacturers make good ones, some don't. For future reference the Vision Vivi Novas have the Vision Logo V on the front, like in this picture...  |

My plan is to make up an apple pie and vanilla custard mix, was planning on using DV apple pie, for one attempt, maybe with some sweetner later if required, and Capella apple pie for another attempt, again with sweetner added if required, both with CVC.... I'm not sure whether to add a touch of vanilla now too, or not. Think I will try it without to start with.

Fair enough, since you want to bring this to a mature conclusion, may I end with this? I didn't argue the fact it could be seen as facetious, because many of the times I use it personally, that is my intention, for it to appear facetious, as in, not to be taken too seriously, or literally. Other reasons I use it to indicate in-jokes, arrogance (yes I can be honest about it) and also sometimes use it, probably out of context, as nothing more than a fun smiley. If you want to draw a line then fair enough, but I would have been interested to know whether it was just how it looks to you that caused you offence, or whether there was more to it than that, I was asking a genuine question, despite already believing that it cant be anything serious (an assumption I admit.) I've already said the reason, which is, it's not something you would normally do when interacting with people..I 've also said in my opening post that it has a place when sharing a private joke or something like that. If you meant for it to look facetious, well, what can I say? To each his own.. And the inevitable yet obvious disclaimer just to put it in black and white: Yes it is my opinion. No one has to live by it and accept it. Opinions are like a-holes. Everyone has one. Yikes, clearly not the same meaning of the word as you are talking about  this meaning... fa·ce·tious [fuh-see-shuh s] adjective 1. not meant to be taken seriously or literally: a facetious remark. And yes you are right about opinions macca, we've crossed opinions a few times and agreed on many things I think, but it has always led to reasonable discussion and debate, and I respect you for that  |

The statement ended with "it can't possibly". That's not a question, it's a pathetic assumption ..You ask the question and answered it yourself.. Taken out of context..Anyway, it is also the answer to previous if indeed it was one..It was my reason why I thought it looked stupid in many instances and facetious when offering advise.. I think I can clear both these points up quite simply, the use of the ? indicates a question has been asked. |

Just as pathetic as you assuming that it can't affect me perhaps? I asked how it could affect you, how does it affect you exactly? Really "Do you go around winking every time you offer advise or make an observation?" That's fair enough, each entitled to their own opinion, but what reason did you have to share this opinion other than to belittle those that use the smiley? And make them feel bad? To me, posting something like this thread looks condescending, self righteous, and pompous, and that is my opinion. |

The over use of a smiley, or any other typing habbits people may have, are no where near as pathetic as this thread tbh, I'm surprised with you for starting it at all Macca. Seems from reading that you have a real issue with it, I cant help but wonder why, in what way does it affect you, or those around you? It can't possibly. People use it because they want to, and they can, they don't have to explain their reasons to anybody (P.s that was a cocky wink, of the type you might expect from the character in my avatar, not an attempt at being funny) |
