I've heard of people putting a couple of drops of juice onto their skin. I don't know whether this works or if it's dangerous at juice nic levels so I cannot advocate it! :)

LOL errmmm thats a bit extreme:eek::p

Plus id rather not drop some juice onto my skin, it doesnt smell very nice...got some over my hands when i first started vaping and it didnt smell too nice, could still smell it a few days later even though i washed with soap.
 
Yeah, always wash your hands if you ever get juice on them, especially if you're working with concentrated Nic (wash immediately). In practice, a bit of juice on your hands is not going to kill you, but you just don't know how much Nic you're going to absorb so play it safe.

You wear gloves when handling e-liquid? Do you mean nic base during DIY?

The only time I've spilled anything was when a bottle slipped out of my hand and I spilled a load of 75mg/ml nic base over my trousers. I felt a little dizzy every now and then for a couple of hours but nothing more than that. Nic base should be handled with caution but a little bit of e-liquid on your hands isn't going to poison you if you wash it off quickly.
 
It's always nice to have a range of flavours available :D

its impossible to avoid juice all over you with rebuildable atomizers ( in my limited experience) i wicked my spheroid on wednesday with surgical gloves on and they were covered in juice, i dont want to absorb nicotine into my skin. i put a new wick and coils in today and was covered all over the gloves greasy as hell, ive got a massive box of surgical gloves so i use them because they were free. my mum works in healthcare/nhs so has an abundance.

the part that gets u covered is lowering the wicks into the chamber.

Anyone who is into rebuildables/high end mods or moving on from normal vaping and still a bit scared of rebuildables, get a gp spheroid, i am useless with my hands and even i can build it fine, i just followed scott bonners review

http://e-cig-reviews.com/forum/index.php?topic=4245.0
 
it seems they are very hard to get and nobody sells them on once they get one, just check updates on http://www.vapist.net/index.aspx?pageid=2268743

i was lucky enough to grab one on monday afternoon and it really is superb, they sold out in about ten minutes. ive got a bag of sera wool enough to last me a few years for about 4 quid. it is the best vape ive ever had, it also makes it so much more fun coiling your own wicks and stuff. makes you feel like a proper boss etc lol

Fair enough. I understand the caution :) The only rebuildables I use are drippers and I don't have that issue as I always recoil after giving it a wash. I don't think I'm committed enough yet to start using RBAs as my main device. When I've finally stumbled upon a real all day vape I will but at the moment I'm constantly switching flavours so will stick with my iclears, protanks, cartos and drippers until then :)
 
Going back to the gloves, i am guilty of not using them unless i am mixing DIY juice.
I vape at around 10-12mg and an odd spillage onto my hands is not going to do me any harm imo, and its too much hassle to put on gloves just to top up a tank imo.
Where mixing is concerned that is a different matter ;)

<3 for helpiong me out I will pass on that willingness.

I am a bit drunk right now!

My Aga and mech mod survived a night out! I was worried about leaking and all sorts but it still works and i never messed it up!

OMG i went though nearly a whole tank of juice though.................................................................................................................. This RBA eats juice.
 
Hmm...not sure on this GVC...it's 12mg as I'm not overly keen on the tingly feelings from my 18mg's...It's a unique taste, tell you that for sure...I'll stick with it as I can't stop vaping it, don't love it, don't hate it...it's strange...

Anyway, I want to upgrade my battery, but not really wanting to spend more than £30 as that's all I have to spare right now...Not keen on the vamo's looks, I want something small and sleek...

Umm...what is it? :confused:

I currently use a basic eGo battery...read in places that the next stage is a VV/VW device...

EDIT: I used to race RC cars so I have experience with batteries and have blown my fair share, they smell nice when they pop...I used to use Lipo's so not sure how these Lithium ions differ, but hey ho, willing to learn...

I went from one of those Egos to a Vamo(variable voltage) from that i went on to try a rebuildable atomizer which is what I have in the picture and that is sitting ontop a mechanical battery mod! which is half the size of an ego twist :D

Just for size reference

So I made some custard juice up 2 days ago (never had GVC) and it smells great but I've promised myself to give it at least a weeks steeping before trying it. If I like it then I'll mix up a big batch if not steep it some more.

It went from clear to orange pretty fast. Most juice doesn't change so much so quickly.

It is 15% Capella VC, 2% Dulce de Leche and a few drops of EM.

Jaffa Far the one you don't love or hate often become all 'day vapes'. I find juice that I love in the first few tokes I often get sick of. I don't know of something that meets your needs, someone else will have to advice you on that.
