After taking my battery it's now reading 0.18 ohms and seems to be producing better vapour already so, maybe it's the VS that was the problem? Whatever it is I won't be buying any more, I much prefer my own nickel builds over this.

Nice honest SX Mini review, given me something to think about...I really like the look of it but I also like the look of the Vapor Flask. :p Maybe I should concentrate on making my own mod before buying anything else.

If you let the mod and coil cool down to room temperature, fire the mod a few times without the atty on it, so when you screw the atty on, it asks you if it's a new coil, say yes to new coil. and it should work a lot better. The connections needs to be good/clean for it to read correctly.

temp control on the dna has been hit or miss for me, it works on the resistance of the coil, it reads it at room temperature then 'knows' what the resistance of the coil should be at certain temperatures as nickel is predictable with resistance against temperature. Certain atties are just pants with nickel depending on how they been designed. Your best atties are the ones that the positive pins connect directly to the 510 pin, atties with separate parts and made from different material are pants due to heat transfer rates.

There's a new vaporflask coming out, it's out in other parts of the world. I don't really know what the difference is, but my next mod will be a dual battery mod, so either the hana v4d or a flask. :)

Set your required watts to each of the memory modes on the device then no need to go into the menus and tilt the device.

I never go into the menu settings on my sx350 mini at all now :)

Also found out that on a future firmware update on the s class & m class the logo on the fire button has an led behind it and it will light up ;)

Cheers all

Thanks buddy, I'm sure I will get used to the workings of it.. it just seems a bit odd at the moment.
 
all this talk of Vapemail.

over 4 weeks and my Fasttech orders finally arrived at Heathrow.

My driptip has been made so that should be arriving shortly :D

Also Fasttech have 50w Istick silicone sleeves in

Been vaping the V4 clone all day yesterday. Went through 3 tanks. No leaks. The top fill works perfectly and it's just fantastic. Really, really impressed with the clone.

Seriously tempted to treat myself to an SX Mini M-class to go with it. Hmmm.
 
Two mods, Two Tanks and hardly any juice in them day...
I do have a new bottle of 18mg tobacco flavour in my draw... :(

Teachings me to check my juice levels...
 
Took delivery of this K.Loud today. Have it sitting on my Praxis



Looks good. Have it at 0.7 ohms and it goes through the juice like crazy. I havnt a clue about the flavor quality as I dont have any sense of taste
 
Here's a question for you guys; with all the kit you buy, do you reckon you are spending more, less or about the same amount of money that you did on tabs?

I was spending about £9 per day on tabs before I went over to vaping so even if I buy a couple of atties, some juice, coils etc. every week I'm still spending less.
The mrs was complaining when some vapemail turned up with yet more goodies until I pointed out that I'd spent maybe £150 this month on bits and bobs but would have spent over £250 had I still been smoking.

These man-maths are the sort of things that makes me order an SX Mini...... Damn, need to stop thinking about it.
 
I think I will end up spending less over time....Probably. lol I'm the same with man-maths, worked out I was spending over £3k a year so started vaping to save a little, as well as the obvious health benefits, but I have it in my head that as long as I come in under £3000 on vape stuff over the year I'm doing alright...I'm already half way there this year! At least we have our health! :D
 
At the moment I'm spending a little more then I was on tabs, £21a week on 50g of drum, papers and filters.

But as I'm relatively new to vaping, most of the cost has been down to finding what setup and juice I like. I hope to end up spending no more then £50 a month once I'm settled :)
 
Subtank plus is here and it is awesome! I didn't realise it's dual airflow, makes a huge difference. I put the RBA base on with a vertical coil and opened it up and WOW massive airflow and amazing flavour! You can also restrict it enough for mouth to lung and it holds 7ml. My new favourite tank, I highly recommend it!
 
over the first year I have spent less than I would smoking... mostly in the first few months! Now I have everything how I like it, I hardly spend anything - maybe £15 per month on the basics for two of us. Plus about £30 per month on new toys lol
 
I used to spend a tenner on a 50g goldern Verginia packet and would last 3 days, so spent about 23 quid a week with rizla and filters etc smoking roll ups. (Used to go to Belgium and stock up with loads of Bakki, risky tho)

For 1 and half year of vaping only thing that cost me was 30 quid for my itaste and protank mini, the rest was just bottles of eliquid.

Then past few months buying new toys driopers, mods, batterys etc. But now iv got everything I need and I make my own eliquid, costs what about 17 quid for a litre of vg and bottle of nicotine, lasts 2 months does a litre. And costs about 10er in flavouring for it.

So it's costing me 27 quid for 2 and a bit months in juice now, and the rest is just charging my batteries which hardly
Makes a dent
 
Been a good week, picked up the 30w in blue and the Subtank at local B&M's all the rest is mail.

1 x 50w istick from ebay as myepack had none in stock at the time
2 x 100 ml Apple Pie and Custard from Gourmet Vapes
1 x 10ml needle nose for topping up my Lemo from myepack
8 x 1.2 OCC coils for the Subtank from myepack

That'll do pig, that'll do!

right what's the lowest ohms you can go on the istick 50w?
Click to expand...

0.4 is the lowest it's supposed to fire, and the lowest I've tried so far.

edit. Just tried it with a 0.2 ohm build and it fires...Needs more power though, I usually have my Sigelei at 70W when using this build.

first year was definitely more (though I only smoked GV so about £15 per week) when I was on the normal "ooh shiney" shopping spree buying new mods / atties etc every other week which every new vaper seems to go through.
that died down and the last year all I buy is juice / wick / wire which works out about £40 per month. not a huge cost saving admitedly but the health benefit should in theory be well worth it
 
I bought 2 litres of nic base last January, 1 litre of pg, and VG as and when from boots. Buy my concentrate in 100ml batches when I can, and my wire and cotton pads in reasonable quantities too.

I went through a phase of buying loads of mods and atties so I'm pretty sorted overall. Hadn't spent a penny on vaping other than charging batteries, this year and the last few months of last year. I have just ordered a 50w istick. That'll do me for a while. I will sell my recently bought Lemo Drop as I'm just not feeling it, and try picking up an infinite kayfun v4.

Once that's done, a few more vtc4 or equivalent and I'll be sorted until the end of the year.
