Rugby is good, at least you can drink in your seat at a rugby game... #icon_hopeless#

Queenie, I wasn't going to say this before, but now you've changed your idea I can...
The red ones are damn ugly, more plasticy, cheap and tacky looking than the black ones, and did I mention it's red? Forest red?
IMO of course.

I'm afraid they keep pushing that date back QB, it did originally say a lot sooner than 30th April... hopefully this time the date is accurate... #fingers#

They've had a message up saying they only have black for a while, QB if you want one quickly, and can cope with black, you could call and ask them to change the order.

I've not had to stop, but I have noticed I get less vapour and hit when outside in the cold.

I see what you mean raggy, and honestly I've never tried it, but I see no reason why it wouldn't work on a LT if sticking it on a 5v PT worked, although I could be wrong.
The LR cartos from HC aren't that low compared to some, so they do have a good range.
I know you didn't want to be tied down with techno jargon, but the power of your vape is measured in watts, and can be altered by changing either the voltage or the resistance (ohms.)
As an example, lets say your battery is outputting 4v (which my 18650's seem to spend the most time at) and you're using a 2.0 ohm carto on your touchwood, that gives you a power of 8 watts (volts*volts/ohms) with a current draw of 2 amps, below the LT's limit of 2.5 amps.
You can achieve the same 8 watts power on a 1.5 ohm carto by dropping the voltage to 3.4 - 3.5 volts, with a current draw of 2.30 amps, just below the LT's limit.
You can also achieve the same 8 watts power on a 3.0 ohm carto by upping the voltage to around 4.9 volts but with a current draw at 1.63, well below the LT's limit.
The point of those examples is this, the LT has a current limit of 2.5 amps I believe. All of the examples above would give you a vape somewhere around what you're currently used to, (8 watts) with any resistance atty. But notice how as the resistance lowers the current increases, despite giving the same end power output, so if you eventually find yourself requiring more power in your vape, you may have to use higher resistance attys. Hope this makes some sense.
** And I hope I haven't got anything wrong, I did this pretty quickly**

Ragjoy, not sure whether you mean as a carto is dying, or when the battery drops, either way though I don't step it up. As a carto fades I replace it, they're only a quid and last long enough, as the battery drops to 3.8 ish I recharge them.
Sorry I have no idea what voltage you'll want to use your 2.0 ohm carto at on a LT, but that's the beauty, now you know you can't go over 5 volts, you can have a play around when you get it, start at 3.5 and work up to a point that it starts to taste wrong, then back down to your sweet spot. If you're currently using Riva's with 2.0 ohm cartos though, I have a hunch your sweet spot will be over 3.7 volts, as a freshly charged riva is higher than that.

When I use cartos on the LT Rag, I use SR cartos (2.9-3.0 Ohm usually) and I only vape them at somewhere between 4.2 and 4.5. So I'm like you in that sense, don't really like the higher voltages... The real good thing about the LT is the fact that unless you run the batteries down low, you get a nice regulated vape, the voltage remains constant, it's great.

According to the table on Liberty flights, an LR boge from Health Cabin (2.0 - 2.2 Ohm) LINK will go up to 5 volts Ragjoy... You can get lower resistance cartomisers than that, which will be limited to lower voltages, and that's why others have said that you can only vape at 3.7, but the ones from HC are apparently 2.0 Ohms and over, so you can vape at up to 5 volts on your LT. Here's the table. 1.5 ohm between 3.0v - 3.7v 1.7 ohm between 3.0v - 4.2v 1.8 ohm between 3.0v - 4.5v 2.0 ohm between 3.0v - 5.0v 2.5 ohm between 3.0v - 6.0v 2.7 ohm between 3.0v - 6.0v 3.0 ohm between 3.0v - 6.0v

I dont think she would have dodged PE without the dutch courage if im honest. Shame she didn't have a few more bottles rosy, she probably could have taken the whole class on!

are you telling me were not actually suppose to already?? Don't think so mate, I know it's ok to send them in tipsy, but I thought drunk was usually frowned upon, as they tend to get a headache by 3pm, unless they have a few tipples behind the bike shed at dinner.

In fairness when I first started vaping*, a VIP cartomiser would last me longer than a day, but it would drop off after the first few hours, not caring if I damaged the carto (not knowing I could refill at first) I'd use them until I got the burnt taste. So yes when I first started they would last over a day, if I went back to them, now that I'm a little more experienced, it would be a couple of hours tops, because as soon as they started to drop off I'd want to refill.
Edit: * whoops

No, not until the next day, it's amazing the courage beer can give you, perhaps we ought to send our kids to school drunk! #icon_rofl# #icon_rofl# #icon_rofl#

I have nothing more to add really, said how I'd deal with it, and shared my opinions, so I'd just be either repeating myself, or justifying myself, don't want, and don't have to do either. although... I would like to see the rightuous at her age go and get changed in front of a lot of people who are laughing at them because they are carrying a bit of weight. Never been on a football away trip have you???

I've noticed that vaping has become a proactive hobby, where as smoking was just something I did, but wasn't proud of.
I'd also appreciate a cuppa, not a cucumber sandwich though, but the triangles remind me, can I have dairylea please?
