They are in China mate, not the US of A
"Please note: orders under 2 kg have the option of cheaper China Post delivery. Once the order goes over 2 kilograms in weight, the China Post option is removed and the faster EMS is the only option (up to 30 kg)."

Well I just spoke to natalie, the lovely lady running the shop, and she would be more than happy to do a deal with me for a group purchase if there is any interest... with it being local to me, I don't really need to set a minimum or anything like that...
So the offer stands, I am happy to buy some in for peeps and post it out, if they pay postage costs, only thing is I don't have paypal so unless I can get Natalie to take paypal payments, or someone on here to take them and forward the money onto me, it's BT only.

But you wouldn't be able to use the variable voltage above what the 18650 is actually giving out, as far as I know, that device has no boost circuit, it regulates the combined voltage of 2 x 3.7volt batteries down to your desired voltage.... if that makes sense?

Chesterfield, On Sheffield Road, it's a computer and electronics shop, that are also branching out.
If people want I could run a kind of group buy, I wouldn't mind getting some and posting it out to peeps... Although I have just messaged them and asked them how long it will be before they are going to start selling online, as I know it was in the pipeline.

That's a good price for Hangsen, Alvo. Yeh I think so, it's a similar price to Easy's hangsen offerings, except this is definitely bottled by and at hangsen, rather than decanted, or whatever it was people were accusing Easy of doing. Like I said, I like Hangsen, But this other brand they've got, tengwu, is even nicer IMO, and the same price.

It uses stacked batteries and step down circuitry to adjust the voltage down. UK vendors were selling these ages ago, they weren't very popular for that, and other reasons. Good of you to post your findings though Robby, don't be put off doing that by poor feedback on 1 item, you may find something really good some time, and we'd all want to know about it then

Cocomel is the devils work, which is why I think River chose the avatar he did, he's one of it's biggest advocates... When something's as beautiful, tasty and delicious as cocomel is, it's got to be bad....

Wondered if anyone had heard of them, or tried them. I have a b&m shop close to me that sell hangsen, (£5.99 for 30ml sorry, they dont have a site ) which is what I was vaping (menthol and strawberry) but they also sell this Tengwu juice I'd never heard of (same price,) anyway, I thought I'd try it. It's thicker than the hangsen, so presumably has some VG in it, but the flavours are much nicer, (and I do genuinely like hangsen) for a chinese (presumably) manufacturer I'd never heard of, I was really pleasantly surprised, Love their strawberry, more like real juicy strawberries than the artificial strawberry flavouring type I'm used to (which I also like btw)

Could still get stopped by customs and levied with a pretty decent sized customs charge. yes I know you've ordered a few times, and so have I, and its gone straight through, but other times it can, and it has been stopped for duty to be added, only order if you're prepared to pay the tax to customs and charges that royal mail add on. Think of it as more of a bonus when it doesn't get stopped... That`s fair enough, but I have made about 20 separate purchases so far from different sellers in China, and havent paid a penny in customs or charges, nearly all by China airmail. It`s a risk you take, but as long as you arent greedy and dont get too much, you seem to get away with it most of the time, all of the time in my case You can buy this almost identical device in the UK on offer for £56, reduced from £65, also includes one battery at SAFERCIGS. www.safercigs.co.uk/NEW_40__Lavatube_18650_Kit/p705283_7944808.aspxYep... I believe the group buy from here never got stopped for several orders too, that is until, yep, you guessed it, it got stopped It's just common sense to have money set aside for customs and be prepared to pay it if needs be, if not needed, another bonus. You are right though, they seem to be a lot more relaxed about china for some reason, and things will get through more often than not. Maybe they have so much coming through from China, via sites like ebay, and China is notoriously cheap, so much of it will fall under the £15(?) limit.

yeah my chrome mini is a lambo v4 by l-rider this might be a dumb question but how can you tell its a v4? the L-rider lambo 4 has L-rider etched into one side, and lambo 4 into the other, it also has the CE marks etc etched into the bottom cap.
