You are correct it does not expand like cotton, but it seems not to add anything to the juice, so it does seem a better vape. Of course you need to get the wicking correct for the atty, but once you do it can run for months without issues. eww months ? I strip my atty down and clean it every other week and I have to dry burn the regularly to get rid of all that filthy black crud it gets crusted in far more often than that, I hate to think how gunged up the chimney and deck would be after months ......

I'm with the monster raving loony party, they wanted to turn the butter mountain into a ski slope. they wanted to do a lot of things that would of been infinitely better than just stashing it in never used missile silo's across France (all those giant empty buildings they made to scare the ruskies and not one of them ever had a missile in it) makes you wonder really why they chose to prop up the French farmers to such a degree when they could of just banned the nasty chemical muck called margarine that was known to cause all kinds of problems and sold butter instead ....

Copied and pasted from POTV From Lubrisolve Dear Customer, Thank you for your enquiry. We will continue to be able to be able to supply our nicotine products post TPD ruling as we are a supplier of the base products. All of our products are fully certified with CofA's available for each batch. I am confused ? post may 20th they are still able to sell there wares under the 12 months sell through clause to the public with regards to the 72mg nic base, after that things might change or they might not depending on how the government decides to move forwards, will they choose to enforce the legislation or leave it with an "ignore this junk" label, if they do as is predicted and take the latter then lip service is all that will be paid to article 20 and business will continue as normal (rather like the French and Italians do for various laws they don't agree with) even after that point if they set up all their customer records as "business accounts, pay on order no vat exemption" they can theoretically continue to flog their goods to the public (who already have accounts with them) skirting round the "trade only law" rather like macro used to do for the general public shoppers wanting a cash n carry card.... and legally speaking that's a bullet proof defence for them (we sell our lab grade goods to businesses only) its a bit of a minefield and time will tell exactly how the chips fall around this whole thing but so far it seems like our government is planning on more of a "manyana manyana" approach and that can only be good for the country

Mini freezer purchased, another 2 L of base on order, that makes 6 L. At current usage (3 mg mix, 4.17 ML of base per 100ML that is, 100ML usage a week) that'll keep me going for 27.6 years. Sorted, unless PG and VG are somehow illegalised...! pg might get harder to come by if the german health department gets its way but vg would be a tad difficult to limit given you can make the stuff in your kitchen with a few sacks of spuds, then use t he left over "waste product" to make mash and the peel to make vodka if your into that sort of thing

jtcrealistically you can probably order what ever you like even after that date as well, far too much stuff comes from china for customs to be seizing and returning goods, you have to remember that at least half the vapers will be ordering stuff from china and the average guy in the customs checking centre wont have a clue what he's seeing on the scanner, there too interested in drugs or weapons smuggling to be worried about the small stuff like counterfeit or none compliant goods (except around xmass time when for some reason they like to seize a few containers worth and brag about what a great job there doing on the national news at which point something may get inadvertently stopped .... ) realistically though unless there told to spend a few days picking on a particular specialist item they tend not to bother going after them (last years drive was fake GHD's & fake frozen dolls for instance protecting the cheeldrin)

So what happens if we order tanks that take more than 2ml from China now. Will they get stopped? nope, you can order whatever you like until may next year

I can only hope this is a temporary issue and the powers that be won't be able to ignore the science forever. I don't believe that will be the case, but you've got to hope, right? the thing is even if we voted out of the EU as a country in the referendum we would still be under EU law as they stand today until sept 2018 (allowing a few days for Cameron to try and wriggle out of making the formal notification, a formal vote of no confidence in him and the subsequent party election of boris or similar as the new leader) under the 24 months clause in article 50 of the Lisbon treaty, unless by some miracle both sides agreed to let us just cease being a member immediately (no harm/no foul situation) so at best whoever is the leader of the house after the referendum will be allowed to suspend the TPD article 20, (not repeal it but just make it totally unenforceable within the UK) it would still apply to cross boarder sales /

on the mad hatter rda I normally pour the juice in between the two coils until its level with the top wait a few minutes and then start pulling on it, that way I know i'm getting several puffs between refills, but it does tend to spit hot blobs out the side vents as the coils get up to temp ......

I got an original crown + rba from amazon and it works great, I stick to using kanthal A1 Clapton coils in the RBA most of the time @30w, on average the rba needs rewicking every 5 days (but I do chug through 2>3 tanks a day on it) I also bought a clone and a 5 pack of rebuildable heads from FT, and there pretty much the same deal as the original unit I got. I found sticking to around the 0.5ohm builds works best (its around 5 wraps of Clapton wire on a 3mm jig) and rebuild the coil at least once a fortnight (but I am chugging custard on it so it gunks up pretty fast) the same coil build with a menthol tank lasts around a month between coil changes and the wicks stay cleaner so only once a fortnight change on those as well the coils say on the side there rated for up to 30w, that's the point at which your in danger of melting the O-rings though heat dissipation not performing too well, so your advised nto to go past it unles you plan on swapping orings regularly

I like the mad hatter dripper www.gearbest.com/rebuildable-atomizers/pp_277668.htmlalthough if you like fruity flavours don't get the painted ones, its got a huge juice well with bags of airflow and its simple enough ot refill, I can drop about 1ml of juice into it and the only problem is the stuff spitting out the sides when it crackles, also it has a 510 drip tip adapter and works well some picks of it although i'm in the process of rewicking you can see its a beast of a dripper and capable of a lot more than I chuck at it got mine from GB and the price is fantastic imho,

buggritt your right of course but the extrapolation is where a lot of the worst legislation comes from, all it takes is one noob to ruin life for the masses and unfortunately the world is full of noobs in all walks of life

one way you could do this is put it a market notification for a single juice concoction and then with your certificate number continue to purchase wholesale e-juice......
although that might make you a producer in the eyes of the law, you don't actually require to sell the stuff in order to get and then keep your certificate, and as I understand the rules you don't need to submit your juice for testing unless its on sale to the public,
so perhaps there is a simple way round the problem albeit adding a cost weighting to the juice.... the only possibly dodgy downside would possibly the vat /excise duty angle /

well the rolo came out with 200w and a couple of months later a new firmware update pushes that 250w, i'm just thinking it might not be a bad idea to you know have vent holes, not like some tool isn't going to see that and think "i'm a get that and be fly" then without knowing what there doing with that 2.2 ohm clero and their touchfire branded icr10 rated cells whack it up to full power and wonder why there arm is suddenly missing the grabby bit and blame it all on dangerous unregulated devices now is it ..... oh wait that's exactly what the average "mod blew up" types do already ..... and you just know they would of dropped it and taped the battery cover shut because it kept getting loose ...... Yeah, but it just proves Darwin's theory (your post made me laugh out loud, as I hadn't *thought it through*) its not proving Darwin's theory that will upset most folk though its the embuggerance factor it will create with new regulations that will be parachuted in to cover the batteries supplied and the power levels in the mods and so on, which will just lead to less choice less innovation and a more lacklustre set of gear on sale...which is of course exactly the sort of "protect the plebs from themselves " sort of thing out nanny state loves to do, just look at the restrictions in other areas like utility's, its one thing to have safety based regulations (don't put cumulative effect poison into food stuffs) its another to say "this item might be dangerous if you miss use it so were going to ban it from sale to the public" (like the majority of fireworks were).... oh and lets not get into the side effects for everyone else in the room having to breath in the fumes of a battery under thermal runaway....
