6 bottles for £10 delivered is a good price. I will let you know how they are as I just ordered some:

http://www.darkstarvapour.co.uk/darkstar-shop

- Bottle 1 Flavour: Fresh Lime
- Bottle 2 Flavour: Fruits of the Forest
- Bottle 3 Flavour: Kiwi Crush
- Bottle 4 Flavour: Lemon Sorbet
- Bottle 5 Flavour: Peppermint
- Bottle 6 Flavour: Raspberry Candy

They've arrived. The company chucked in another bottle of Kiwi Crush too, apparently because I'll like it. Let me be the judge of that. Now I need to play the steeping game

Do you know if any of these liquids are likely to crack my evods?

Micro stick and Temon, I do love a mesh genny.
El Torro Virginia Prime,tis lovely but its a gunker!

I've not tried mine yet, normally absinthe, strong citrus, banana flavours from what I know will crack polycarb tanks. UKV have a list of known juices which is normally up to date so you can check there

I know it's not much help, but I mainly use drippers and genesis style attys for suspected trank crackers which I'll defo use for Lemon Sorbet, Fresh Lime and probably Kiwi Crush.

There is a lot of difference in material quality with polycarb that I wouldn't want to risk trying those I mentioned even in the Kayfun.

Oh balls! I contacted the seller, and he said he's not had any reports of tanks cracking, so I ordered the fresh lime, Kiwi and lemon sorbet.

I'll give them a go in an old evod (fasttech) and see what happens, may need to look into buying a Pyrex tank

Finally! I've pressed the buy buttons. I'm quite excited as I've just bought my first 'pro' upgrades since buying my evod starter kit a few weeks ago. Today I've purchased online a Sigelei Zmax V5; a Kayfun SvoeMesto 3.1 HCigar clone; an IGO-W; 2 x IMR 850w 18350 batteries, and a Nitecore i2 charger. The Kayfun was £40 but cost me nothing as I used most of an amazon gift certificate. Both atomisers come with wick and wire but since I've never coiled, it'll be interesting to see how I get on.

I spoke on the phone to the guy selling the Kayfun and he confirmed it does come an assortment of spares, some wire, wick, screwdriver and a blue zip case. He's very kindly going to install a coil for me so I can see how he's done it and he's also going to pre-coil another, so that's very nice of him.

With mostly free shipping, two discount codes and my gift certificate, I only actually paid £87 for that lot!

Sounds like you done well there, a nice next step I'm sure you'll have fun playing with that lot and be coiling like a pro in no time,it's not as hard as it sounds

This is a MASSIVE shout out to Simon from Scopes Juice.

I had just finished (yesterday) my bottle of Raspberry (2nd bottle that I had bought) and though it was a bit 'flat and lifeless' so I messaged the guy on facebook and asked his opinion and whether it might be my setup or 'vapours tongue'. 30 minutes later he messaged me saying there was a new bottle in the post of Raspberry 18mg 30ml. He mentioned my previous order was from a different batch and hoped I'd get on with his latest. I was stunned, only sought advice! What a fantastic chap!

When I get some more spare cash, I won't hesitate to place a bigger order with the guy! 30ml of Peach, Raspberry, Apple Tart and Banana sounds good...

Welcome to the Microstick club.

I think it looks best in 18350 mode, I just don't like the look of the ribbed extender. It's the best looking, compact, stealth mod out there atm imo, until the Ti one is released which I hope has some subtle changes. Surprisingly Chel takes onboard customer feedback that's why the Lanyard was removed with the recent batches.

Really loving the Microsticks just not sure if I want to part with that much cash!

Vape Mail arrived today, got some Torchy 18350s and 18500s as well as some Mr Good Vape Sundae Fundae and Moon Sugar, currently vaping the Sundae Fundae and it's like a sweet ice-cream delight, full of rich sugary tastes with plooms of vapour.

Where did you get your Mr Good Vape from?

Yep new toys, lots to play with. I'm glad I get some wire and wick to try out before buying supplies.

For anyone interested, the american nicotickets juices are now being sold in the UK by spiritusvapes. Not particularly cheap though for 17ml. Custard's Last Stand is meant to be very good.

I ordered it from the Vaporium in Ireland, they have a large rage of american juices in stock, ordered it Monday evening and it arrived this morning. Think i'm going to run out of the Sundae Fundae rather quickly...

Now I know why you let your mum have the MS, I was originally going to wait for the TI version but couldn't resist temptation

KFL+ clone turned up today, happy with it. Nice that it's smaller than the 3.1 by ditching the catch tank, and still has AFC.

I like the clear tank a lot more than I expected to as well. There's a drip tip adapter included, but I can jam most of my drip tips in without it which is nice. I'm impressed with it on the whole on first impressions. It looks and feels of a much higher quality than the fasttech 3.1 clone I have to, in terms of the threading and so on, also looks like full stainless unlike my FT 3.1 is.

Nice one Manju, once I've got your address I will send it over. It is around 85/15 VG/PG.
I had a panic moment after posting that so went to retaste and I am sticking by my guns and looking forward to getting a big head or shot down in flames.
*Edit. Make that 75-80% VG.
Right just been vaping some more on a fresh batch and the flavour is there though either I am getting dull of it or the flavouring needs tweaking up slightly. Also although all the flavourings have been pre steeped, I do not know if the actual recipe will change as the flavours themselves, steep and blend together.
I am glad you asked for one Manju, I respect your opinion; You might even be able to get what is in it.
What I will do then is, send you a few of this one and if you like it good, or if you think it is quality though just not your cup of tea, maybe pass them on. if you think it is total rubbish just chuck it and I will bow down gracefully and not come to the thread for a few days untill all is forgotten.
Cheers mate.

Chorlton Royal is an excellent name

 

[Lt_Red]

I've been faffing about with the KFL quietly bemoaning my unwise and frankly n00bish choice of 34GA Kanthal. I have made about 8 coils so far and just cant get enough wraps to even get a half respectable wick cover and silly high ohmage - just 2-3 wraps were coming out at 2.5-3.5 ohms or there abouts. Sure they vaped ok, but just not quite where I would have liked.

I even tried to build a micro-coil and that came in at 6 ohms!

Then I saw a youtube on twisted wire and thought ah-ha! Twist the wire halve the resistance or something - so I got my drill out and tried and tried to twist the wires with an allen key in the chuck - kanthal kept breaking. Got fed up and just attached the wire directly into the chuck and whooom... one twisted wire.

After 3 more failed builds using the twisted wire (running out of Kanthal now) I have managed to fluke a 1.5 ohm coil with 5.5 wraps and its running at 3.1 volts - sweet mary mother of god it kicks out vapor like an Indonesian Volcano!

Really enjoying this rebuildable lark - I didn't think I would have the patience for it but my often hilarious noobish mistakes (trying to thread silica through a perfectly spaced, beautifully firing but stupidly fragile coil causing it to break right at the last minute - spilling e-juice everywhere more often than not - calculating the voltage so far wrong that the coil I just spent an hour on has instantaneously popped, trying to empty the kayfun by putting the drip tip over a juice a bottle and removing the base only for the drip tip to fall out into the bottle and then spending half an hour trying to get it out again) seems to keep me endlessly entertained.

There a lot to be said for humorous self-depreciation in the face of adversity when trying to stem the call of the stinkies, thats for sure.

I have a roll of .2 kanthal coming in next week hopefully. This'll do till then thanks very much

When you get that, easiest method is simply wrap a micro coil around a tiny screwdriver and slip in some organic cotton for wick. Job done.

As I said in email Manju, Wow, I did not expect such a thorough write up. Nice one, thank you very much.

Still samples of the Chorlton Royal up for grabs. I will put five to one side, if you would like to have a try and give your take on it, send a P.M. with your address and I will post them off.
