My maths might be bad but I think 400mls?

Your maths is a bit rusty, you only get 200mls of VG/PG combined

So you can only make a max of 200mls, if your using 10% favouring.

I don't think that starter kit is good value. As you get 200mls of PG/VG for £6. And I got 100mls of nicotine for £16
http://www.ltecigs.larsentilbrook.co.uk/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=488
Favours are £3 each.

So thats £28 and you paying almost £10 for syringe and empty dripper bottle.

Good point. The 400ml was only based on how much the nic would make at 18mg. I didn't bother working out how to do it cheaper. I've found people that want to buy a kit get right put off with buying it all separate. At 18mg from the 72mg base 1/4 of the juice would be base so more and 10-20% flavouring so more than 200mls but less than 400mls.

Purchased some Apple Tart from Simon, Nothing wrong with the juice great vapour and the flavours are there just not my cup of tea luckily I decided to jump in the shallow end and buy 10ML.

Also I love the Raspberry flavour but I seem to hammer my way through it due to me trying to convince myself 12MG is high enough, Ive moved up to 18 which can give me headaches unfortunately but I need throat hit to keep me off the ciggys although I vape far less which I guess is a good thing!

So, I have 27ML of Raspberry 12MG 50/50 and 8.4ML of Apple Tart and will chuck in 5ML of Berry sampler all 12MG from Simon if anyone would be interested feel free to send me a message via trust! (May seem a little precise but I filled 1 x 3ML Tank of Rasp, a 1.6ML Tank of Apple... you get the gist!)

@ Craig: You asked me for a picture of my AGA-T2 coil setup some time ago. I must admit, since receiving my Sigelei 19b & Nautilus, I haven't really used it as I'd recoiled it messily after a flavour change and couldn't work the multiple hotspots out. So it's been sat on my desk awaiting it's turn for a 15 minute (the wife says 2 hours!) window of opportunity for me to fiddle...

I'd been interested in the MicroCoil & Cotton craze that's hit UKVapers , so after a couple of YouTube tutors and some swearing, I achieved the following :

32 AWG (320-Micron-or 0.2mm) A1 Kanthal, 10/11 wraps around a 2.5mm drill bit, with a 300 SS Mesh Wick, coil end brush-wrapped with 100% pure organic cotton wool (nicked straight from under the sprogs change table!)

It's not as neat or tight as I'd like, but it was only an experiment with what I had in stock. I have 28AWG (lower resistance) on its way.

This measured out at 3.1 Ohms - higher than I'd like, but I can just crank the power up. The 28AWG should allow me 10-12 wraps at 1.6 ohm - which I'm looking forward to

Choo-Choo!

It's brilliant - no hotspots whatsoever, it seems the cotton acts to prevent them - creating a buffer between the mesh and coil, better than any amount of oxidising will.

Vaping Scope's Apple Tart at 10W on the Vamo - flavours are clear and crisp; warm, smooth vapour with no hotspot burn if I hold the button too long.

Will take better pics with my SLR when I recoil with the lower resistance wire.

IMPORTANT: if you are thinking of trying this, go really easy on the cotton and don't dry burn it at any stage - prime the wick with ejuice beforehand or you'll just fry the cotton and have to start again.

Hope this helps you mate

Now all you need is an Adegan crystal and you look set....

Whats the rules about vaping on a bus or in pub or public building were smoking is banned?

 

[bigjonnyauk]

It's not unlawful, but it is down to the individual premises whether they'll allow it.
I just use common sense - if I think "Would I appreciate someone blowing vapour in here?" and the answer is No, then I won't vape - such as in the cinema, where my clouds might annoy other viewers, or the Children's Ward, where it's just not appropriate.

Although, and this goes to the woman and her Panty-Hamster offspring, if I've been sat at a table in *an international chain of coffee shops* for the past 3 hours, openly vaping merrily, without complaint, and there's 15 other tables, much further away, to choose from - DONT choose to sit next to me then spend the next 30 minutes bitching about how you thought "Smoking had been banned" and that I'm "inconsiderate, there's kids around", and then "demand to speak to the management", as the manager, a vaper herself, will inform you that the franchise owner allows it...

And when your further demand of, "well, I want to speak to this franchise owner" is responded to by "certainly, he's been sat over there for the past 3 hours", at least have the common ****ing decency to wave back!

My maths might be bad but I think 400mls? You'd run out of flavouring well before that and would be short on PG / VG maybe depending how you mixed it. I think there is enough flavouring included to make around 100mls since most of the included flavours need around 20%

Your maths is a bit rusty, you only get 200mls of VG/PG combined

So you can only make a max of 200mls, if your using 10% favouring.

Thanks guys It's one hell of a minefield trying to chose site\need.

So I need that diamond 54mg and I need 100ml of PG and VG plus flavour? I just can't get my head around this

Which bits don't you get?

With 54mg base 1/3rd of the final juice will be base to get 18mg, so 3.3mls base per 10mls final juice. Most flavours you mix at around 10-20% of the final juice so 1-2mls of the final juice. The VG and PG make up the rest 4.7 - 5.7mls (depends on the amount of flavouring) or about 50% of the final juice.

You don't have to work this all out. There are loads of juice calculates out there on the web or as apps for your phone. You just input the numbers and it tells you how much to add of each item.

What I need to buy. I need the diamond 54mg and a 100ml bottle of VG and PG and flavour is this correct.
Then go to a online calculator to work out how to mix 50\50? I want 18mg in the end.

Sorry guys but with the tablets I take I'm still trying to work out what day it is! NURSE

Wow that looks brilliant, do you feel its better in comparison to your ususal mesh setups? That thing is choo chooing like a boss look at that vapour! I might have to try this when I get my DID in the post today .

I have seen people say and get about 1.6 to 1.9 Ohms with micro coils and they compare to say 1ohm or sub 1 ohm normal wraped coils because of the intensity of the vape but without the danger.

I just have this thing in my mind about cotton lol seems so ghetto xD like a botch wick .

Thanks for the advice as always Red <3 Gosh that thick is spewing vapour xD

Classic

I've just popped down to my local shop in Edinburgh (Vaporized in Leith Walk) and picked up a Protank and a new juice they're selling called Darth Vapor (30% Black Cherry, 30% Plum, 30% Dragon Fruit (!), 10% Menthol Ice - 65%PG/35%VG) It's the first non-tobacco flavoured juice I have tried and I must admit it's quite nice, although to be fair I have nothing to compare it to.

Draw on the ProTank is much airier than the CE3 (Vapeland Starter Kit) I was using before but I haven't yet decided if that's a good or bad thing.

I've got 2 weeks off work, sitting here waiting for my new build parts to turn up and trying to give up the fags...

Hi guys, iv been reading abit of this thread and my god its hilarious what you all talk about! its quite confusing and sometimes makes me hungry! its like your all talking about food!

anyway.. im sure this has been asked many times before but me and mrs were going to get a couple of e-cigs because we have both been smoking for far too long now, but im not really that sure what is the best one to get! I was looking at the VISION V3 EGO SILVER KIT but was wondering what the difference is between that one and the one i have tried before which was the cartridge style ones before?

One thing that looks interesting is all the different flavours you can get for the liquid, but is that just for liquid though, or can you get that for cartridge aswell?

cheers

I started out with these http://www.vapeland.co.uk/vision-v3-ego-black-kit---900mah-97-p.asp

And from more info\help from the people here I got some cheaper things from fasttech china.
Now I'm going to mix my own juice again with the help here

 

[Allnamestaken]

omg im so excited to get my DID setup.

My ghetto fix on the AGA is falling apart haha its vaping fine but i keep staring at it in the corner of my eye on my beautiful mech mod. That Aga needs to be deported as soon as possible!

The kit deuse suggested is a good basic kit on the cheap, and then you can choose any liquid you like to put in the clearomiser. You would need to replace them after a couple weeks, but they only cost a couple quid. You can put any atomiser you like on those batteries, so it's quite a flexible kit.

I suggest starting on 18mg strength or lower liquid, depending on how much you smoke. You can always chain vape a low strength, but I find a liquid that's too strong is really off-putting for me (some people don't mind though).

 

[Kavalree]

Hmm...I think I have finally decided what vape thingy to get...going to get a Vamo V4 due to the Ohm meter built in...probably grab an AGA T2 or Smok RSST with it...
