Quite a tall order for 50w! I'd worry about the quality of the device at that price.

I don't tend to use any PG as I go for as higher VG as the concentrates will allow me to go. Cheers for the tips! That could well be the reason why you find the flavour weak, PG is the stuff in the mix that brings out the flavour, VG makes the bigger clouds but imo too much kills the taste. Try a little 10ml tester at 60pg 40vg just to see if you get more flavour, then you can try another at 50 /50 write it all down until you hit the best mix. But i have to agree with the others that your concentrates seem a tad low. The thing is, whilst I do understand that PG carries more flavour, the Element juice that i vape regularly is 80% VG and it's full of flavour so it is possible. Plus I'm not really after any throat hit. For the sake of science though I'm going to make a little fruit based tester tonight at 50/50. Am thinking something along the lines of - 13% Sweet Tangerine CAP 10% raspberry CAP 2% Sweetener So with fruit I should just give a good shake for 2 minutes and breath it over night and then this should be ready? |

If I can improve my own mixing then I'm all ears.  |

You mean the pre mixed concentrates? Not tried those no but I hear that chefs vapour do some. Good idea.

Use steam engine for all your mixing needs. There's a coil calculator there too. www.steam-engine.org |

Yeah lots to learn and lots of experimenting. I am considering just sacking it off tbh and just buying juice. It's just a constant disappointment.  |

Yeah I was thinking of trying out some at 25%. Just always felt like too much as most recipes range from 10-20.

They leak, they all leak, no special wicking technique in the world stops the little devils leaking, it's just that some wicking techniques cause less leaking than others. They like to leaky leak leak like leaky things. Mine doesn't leak anymore it's degrading in landfill! Buy a TFV4 /the end. Thanks for your erudite contribution, *-SARIN-*!  I must admit that I have a growing like for the good old Subtank - i have a Mini and a Plus, both on RBA heads, and they are both going great guns at the moment, and I'm seriously considering getting another of each as they just do what they say, and if the worst comes to the worst, I can pop in a stock coil Get a Bellus instead. Fantastic tank. way better than the subtank. |

I've always been told to never charge via USB. Not sure exactly why as I had an 30w istick for ages that could only be charged that way. I always use an external charger now though.
Only thing I can think of is maybe the charger you are using is putting out to many amps. 0.5 or 1 amps is best for your batteries.
