Have about 8 of the Chinese atty's and to date....not one has had the airhole line up.
Starting to think the laws of averages are against me but usually it is close enough for me to move the cap a little and still be secured if not I add an o ring and done.
Trying not to buy anymore for a while until they significantly change.

The most obvious one for me is the lack of morning hack.
Can't say I miss that couple of minutes spent sitting on the edge of the bed wondering how long it was going to go on for as I really wanted a cigarette.

Nope life long RSPB and BTO member even when living outside of the country.
Will try to get some video of the Swallow Tailed Kites and Red Shouldered Hawks I have nesting in my garden also have Bald Eagles nest a couple of hundred yards behind my garden.
Those are OK but the Swallow Tailed is exactly the same as the Scissor Tailed in east Africa. The Red Shouldered we get is a Florida sub species which is a little different from the norm but it is still a buzzard lol
Do like the hummingbirds though. Hence my Phiniac tank. Managed to get them to overwinter in the garden for the first time this year after 4 years of trying. We only have one species in the east, Ruby Throated but do love them.

Was just looking at a video review of a new Smok Tec, can never spell that right, tank that is coming out with an Ego connection.
Looks like a Stardust other than it is a carto tank. Coming out in XL and Standard sizes so your choice.
Here in the US will be about $13 so probably about a tenner.

hi again guys.... this has probably been covered but i was wondering why you guys started vaping?? i can say for me its with a view to stop smoking BUT im thinking that vaping tho better for you is just as addictive right??? I fell into stopping smoking by vaping by way of curiosity. I had no interest in giving up, I loved smoking and thought that I would quit just before I stopped breathing or probably as. The reason I have quoted the section above is to address the just as addictive part. I frequent a few boards and nobody has ever promoted vaping to non smokers. I vape because I am addicted to nicotine. This is a result of a poor choice I made many years ago but I am not crying over spilt milk it is what it is. The addiction was already present. Vaping has not increased or decreased that addiction to nicotine it has enabled me to continue my life without the additional carcinogens present in cigarettes and without a trip to prison. Really I turn into one nasty horrible bugger when the nic withdrawals come along. Anyway a friend of the wife spoke to her about her son stopping smoking by vaping and mentioned something called an Ego. It just sparked an interest in me. I started reading. The interest turned into real curiosity and so I found a place that sold Ego's and went along and tried. The last Ego he had was sold while I was standing there having my first vape. I knew immediately this was now more than interesting so went home and ordered an Ego C kit and the next 6 weeks was a avalanche of retail therapy that left me worse for wear in the pocket but no longer a smoker. I am still amazed I am not a smoker. More amazed how easy it was to become an ex-smoker and even more stunned how much I am enjoying these really cool toys lol

Welcome from me too.
I suspect my friends above are being kind. A little confusing ? lol
Still remember the headache from finding the first vaping board. Sat there absolutely bemused and befuddled. Despite what some may say that is not my normal state, well most of the time.
The trick is to ask questions. There is no such thing as a silly question you may get the odd silly answer but the question is never silly.
One piece of reassurance I can give is that 11 weeks into vaping I am now able to write about this and nearly most of the time know what I am talking about. I guess you have gathered what I do when I don't.

Hold on a minute....again. So £7 a pack which means I would have saved £691.26 but spent £875, just had to see what these Cisco attys were about and slipped just a little. Damn and blast thought I could have used the if I was living in the UK thing. Trouble is that the stuff I have spent money on is bound to be more expensive at home so that is a duff argument. I guess the answer is to move back home now I have the gear

Blue Mist Vaping does it.
Afraid she isn't being naughty !
How about Jalapeno ? Or Maple and Bacon ? The last one isn't that odd for here. Stopped in a Diner last year and they were offering Maple and Bacon Ice Cream Sundae.

I am thinking in about 6 months I should start saving money given juice, carto and atty expenditure provided I stay away from Mods without selling any I have or rebuildable atty's. The last one is unlikely as I have my name down for two at the moment.
Ok I am thinking in about 7 - 8 months I should start saving..........

This is the first time I have ventured here. Woohoo !
Sorry dedicated birder. My earliest memories are walking through a forest in Germany looking at Middle Spotted Woodpeckers when I was about 5 or 6.

Been meaning to try Kanger's but have rather a lot of Boge's.
Would second using either of them in a tank as it does seem to improve the life expectancy of the carto. Using clear liquid I expect at least 10 days and with a coloured one around 7 at a minimum.
I am also rather lazy and all that topping off drives me nuts.

If there wasn't a slight 5000 odd mile gap they would be vaping by now lol Hmmm maybe not my wife isn't and that gap is substantially less. Good to know about the regulation on the device, though excuse me for not letting my sister know quite yet
