Ignore, ive decided to buy me an evod kit and work my way up. Seems less hassle to start.

Good choice. A lot of people jump straight onto complex mods and get frustrated. It's better to have something that works well while you get your head around microcoiling and other dark arts :p
 
I may take your Roller/Dingo off your hands (if you haven't already found a buyer) in a couple of weeks mate. My Private v2 hits so hard, but doesn't match the clean and flush lines of the Kayfun, AGA-T2 or Igo-W. Need a Genesis that looks like the Immortaliser but with brass/copper accents.

I should have some time to share some pictures of my new kit soon, but bonus points if anyone can guess what is in the picture:

Congratz :cool:

Some attys which will go well with that finish I think would be:

Feeling like such a noob again this morning. As I've said many time on here I use an aga t2+ in the house and an evod when out and about. I was recoiling and recoiling my Evod heads (normally a few mins work) and just couldn't get the juice flow right. Turns out it wasn't the heads but all of the airholes being blocked, stuck my recoiling paperclip in and unblocked it. Working fine now.
 
Gahh spent a while tonight recoiling and wicking my kayfun lite, filled it up with scopes raspberry and its coming out tasting like rubbish..cant really describe the taste but its definitely not raspberry as i have a protank with some in and there is a huge difference in taste between the 2 tanks.

Im at 2.2ohms and voltage is at 4volts, even turning down the voltage doesnt seem to help. on the plus side im getting tons of vapour and it doesnt smell very nice. Dont know what to do as last time i unscrewed the tank i lost all my juice and ive wasted enough of it lol.

Any ideas as to why im getting such a crap taste, is it the juice??

try increasing the voltage 4.2-4.5. and when unscrewing the top cap the juice shouldn't spill out, sounds like you overfilled. When I fill I turn it upside down and fill until I just start to see a bubble forming, the juice should form a U shape in the polycarb tank and that's when I stop; put in the screw and turn it upside down so that the air rises to the top.

raising the coil higher above the air hole helps with taste and throat hit, but what wick did you use? Maybe the coils are wrapped on too tight around the wick.

Well i have read every post in this thread and have learnt so much. I do not smoke and did it all for the wife. She was having breathing problems and i was really worried. She gave up with patches previously but went back to smoking again after a couple of months. Back in May my wife gave up smoking and switched to vaping and has not looked back since. Not only has her breathing problems cleared up, she doesn't snore or wheeze anymore, clothes don't smell, she is allowed to use it in the house (i made her go outside with ciggies), she can taste things properly again plus i don't have to kiss a ashtray all the time. Thanks to this thread we got her the twin Ego-T/CE5 kit from Vapeland. We have had a few battery failures over the months so i will be buying her a Innokin SVD, Kanger protank 2, batteries and a i4 intellicharger from torchyboy for Christmas. In the meantime i have got her using Evods on the Ego-T batteries and she loves the extra flavour she is getting.

I ordered a selection of Scopes flavours a couple of weeks ago, (thanks to scorchisio for his email) and she did'nt like some of them. So to give something back to this thread we would like to offer them to you. We have the following:-

Raspberry 12mg 10ml Nabbed by Hamster
Apple tart 12mg 10ml Nabbed by Redmogg
Berrylicious 12mg 10ml Nabbed by Redmogg
Peach 12mg sample bottle (5ml?) Nabbed by Redmogg

We also have:-

Apollo's Pina Colada 12mg 10ml Nabbed by Redmogg
Vapelands, Hangsen Mango 16mg 30ml Nabbed by Hamster

All liquids now spoken for.

All the above have only had a single fill taken out of them. Let me know who wants what and i will get them off to you over the weekend.

I got about a litre of custard steeping right now so shouldn't need to buy anymore juices this year.

You read every post? :eek:
Congrats to your wife and I'm sure she will appreciate the upgrades come Chrimbo. :D
The juice offer is very generous, but I don't need any atm, have you let the juices steep?

:D ;)

do you put yours in oak barrels like Azhad and Georgio?

http://forum.vapers.it/viewtopic.php?f=91&t=4906

apparently oak gives more of a vanilla/malt taste. No idea if true as I'm not into all of that home brew stuff.

I didn't read it start to finish in one go. Hell, i would be there for a week!! I read up to May when i was researching things and kept up to date since then. I now have around 50 bookmarks of suppliers thanks to this thread. :D

Scopes juices are all of the pre-steeped variety.

Redmogg, you have mail. :)
 
Ignore, ive decided to buy me an evod kit and work my way up. Seems less hassle to start.

I've been using mine for about ten days now and it's been great. I don't see any genuine reason to upgrade apart from just wanting to (which is fine) but in terms of function it's fantastic. The batteries have been better than I expected and last me all day, but I reckon I could go for a protank soon as the clearomisers aren't big enough to go all day for me.
 
Burnt wick/crud on the coil? If you're using cotton and dry burned at all, that will **** it up. Mustn't dry burn cotton ever. If you have a syringe and wide bore needle, try and draw the juice out of the fill hole so you don't waste it.
If you've vaped a fair amount and not thoroughly cleaned the Atty in between flavour changes or primed the wick with juice before rebuilding, these can all cause crap flavour.
I'd make sure the wick is wet, then slowly draw (without power) to prime it further, then start vaping at low volts to start (don't directly inhale into your lungs) - fill your mouth with vapour, you'll know if it still tastes bad without the Kick to the back of the throat. If no burnt taste, gradually up the power until you find the sweet spot .
If still no luck, time to break it all down for a thorough clean (use vodka/isopropyl alcohol or Milton Sterilising Tablets) and boiling water to flush everything. Air dry overnight. Chuck the existing wick and coils and start again.
Repeat the rebuilding, making sure you prime the dry wick with the ejuice you want in there, then test fire before filling - slowly up the power, all the time keeping the wick wet (like a dripper) and only when you're happy, fill the tank.

As great as the KFL is, when it farts about, it is a bugger for trouble shooting!

Patience is key buddy!

Cheers Red for the info, i did have a look at the coil and it didnt seem like any sort of crud on it, i only recoiled and wicked a few mins before i put some juice on it. I did fire it up to see if everything was working and it gave off a burning smell but i didnt think anything of it as i thought it needs to have some juice on there.

Anyhow as it was getting late, i ended up draining the juice back into the bottle and gave everything a good wash before heading to bed. Ive left the coil and wick to dry overnight so will try again this evening.

You can just unscrew the top cap and pour the juice back into a bottle. You'll lose a bit of juice in the process but not much.

Yep thats what i done in the end, didnt lose any juice other than a few drops etc.

try increasing the voltage 4.2-4.5. and when unscrewing the top cap the juice shouldn't spill out, sounds like you overfilled. When I fill I turn it upside down and fill until I just start to see a bubble forming, the juice should form a U shape in the polycarb tank and that's when I stop; put in the screw and turn it upside down so that the air rises to the top.

raising the coil higher above the air hole helps with taste and throat hit, but what wick did you use? Maybe the coils are wrapped on too tight around the wick.

Cheers Majnu, i did turn the voltage down to 3 volts then worked up from there, at around 3.5volts i was still getting the burnt taste so i ended up draining the juice from the tank and took it all apart.

I think i did wrap the coils pretty tight on the wick, so will try wrapping it not so tight later tonight. The wick and oil were raised pretty high from the hole but still getting that awful burnt taste at 3.5volts and above and tbh anything lower than 3.5v just isnt worth it...hardly any vapour or throat hit.

As for filling the tank??, i usually look out for that air bubble then stop filling.

Anyhow moar testing needed!!!:D:D but as fustrating as this KFL can be, im loving it, my coiling and wicking is getting better and better everytime i give it a go.

On a separate note, if anyone is after GVC and knowing how hard it is to get hold of it. Kings custard from vaping king is pretty much spot on with GVC, i got a 10ml bottle of it and let it steep for a few days. Filled up my protanks this morning and whacked it on my provari and wow, it really does taste like GVC.
Methinks ill be ordering a 30ml bottle next.

Sorry, got to disagree with this one. Anyone after the GVC taste from Kings custard will be disappointed. Kings custard isn't anywhere as sweet and doesn't have them rum like aftertaste of GVC. GVC has "Dulce De Leche" sweeter added, so it taste creamier.

Whereas i find it very similar to GVC but everyones palette will be different. I do agree with you in that GVC is slightly more creamier in taste but Kings custard comes very close to GVC, much more than monkey jizz which i found horrible.
