Hey i have been using just the starter packs you get from petrol stations and little shops. I am after a new ecig but nothing tht will cost me an arm and a leg. Now i am not upto date with all the terminolgy but i am after somthing that i am able to change the wattage of the 'Mod' (not sure if i am right or not lol) When i change the chamber am i able to use any liquid?

I tend to use it a lot while im at work and at home on the pc so will need soming that will last also.

Any help would be great.

Get an istick 30 watt or 50 watt and a tank, I would go with something like the subtank/melo or other similiar tanks.

depends how much you want to spend. and arm and a leg is very breif :P

Well I would say around the £30 mark, the only thing is I don't really like the box design lol but thy is what I'm after function wise.

The step up in the stick mods you tend to end up with something the same length as a javelin.

I wasn't a box mod fan at first but you soon become one :) im not upto date on what stick shaped mods are best at the moment so il leave that for someone else :)

But i think most people use either EVOD/Spinner or the aspire sub ohm battery.

But IMO they look ridiculous with tanks on them
 
I have used myepack many times and they do sell authenic gear, eleaf has sign an exclusive deal with totally wicked and officially only them and eleaf (TECC) can sell the isticks in the UK.

There's many threads about this on the UK vapers site. :)

Even if it did have the authenic check sticker, there's a high chance that the site won't work; aspire, eleaf/Joyetech and kanger all pay the same third party company to the check system and it's a load of pants.

I have never had an issue with myepack, I shall dig up ash's email... He's on UK vapers site a lot and has always responded when I've emailed him.

Edit:
I can't find ash's email address using my iPad but iirc it was simply [email protected]
Here's the thread explaining about the stickers.

http://ukvapers.org/Thread-Myepack-genuine-stickers

Believe me, if I suspected them of selling clones, I wouldn't touch them when it comes to batteries or anything with batteries.

I got mine from a different vendor, and it has half a sticker on it lol
As I cba to wait for stock at myepack but I know mines legit as I got it before the clones came out.

Thanks, this fills me back up with confidence :)
 
Just been shopping, picked up a few random juices and a MELO tank

very happy with it for the price, nice tank to take to work currently got snake oil in it what a wierd wierd flavour
 
I've been vaping on NI200 a lot in the past few days and here's my honest opinions:

Vaping on NI200 is not sub-ohming, even thou the ohm reading are > 1 ohm, it gives a similar performance as a 1+ ohm coil, basically treat the NI200 coil the same as 1+ ohm kanthal coil. What ever the coil says, +1 ohm to it, so if it reads 0.11 ohm, treat it as a 1.11 ohm and so forth.

With it not being sub-ohming, I find the vaping on it on a 'normal' tank like the Nautilus, Silo, EMOW, Aerotank far more better than the Kanger subtank, I don't think I'll be using the other temperature coils I have for the subtank nor be placing a NI200 build in the RBA.

NI200 coils do seem to take longer to break in, that's using the factory made ones and self-made ones on RDAs. But they do seem to last longer also.

Flavors are muted, that maybe down to the juices not hitting the temperatures it needs to work correctly.

The SX350J chip is far better than the DNA40 chip at controlling temperature.

Is it worth the upgrade in mods? In a word "no", there's been loads of reported issues with the DNA chip, I've been lucky and mines been working fine (version 2 with the big screen), maybe I don't use it enough. I don't find the vape consistent enough on the DNA.

Like said, I find the SX mini chip a lot better, but at the same time I know I would be more than happy with the non temperature control one, if I already had it. I would get the smok m80 and see how the temperature control compares but I really don't want another fixed battery mod when the istick is more than fine. :)
 
Had my iStick 50w and Nautilus mini for a few days now. I don't know how I ever managed on cheaper stuff. I've gone from vaping almost constantly trying to satisfy the urge on cheaper inconsistent equipment, to taking a couple of clean direct hits every hour or so. My battery is still just under full after three days, and I was a 20-30 a day smoker before I started vaping lol. :) I had to play around with the airflow and wattage/volts to get to where I like it but now I have (approx 4.5v/10w) it's super. Initially I made the mistake of thinking bigger airflow and higher wattage = better.

The only one concern is that the iStick had no authenticity card or scratch panel, but eleaf say all genuine batteries come with one. I emailed the e-tailer (myepack.co.uk) and they're silent. Not sure whether to be happy it works so well and get on with life, or worry about it blowing up down the line and escalate. Any thoughts chaps?


I switched to that combination after 2 weeks vaping a cheap EgoU and loved it instantly (Im just over 3 months off the smokes now).
The nautilus mini is a great little tank and quite robust, the down side is though 3 days ago I dropped it on the carpet and it cracked the pyrex and ofc you know it doesn't come with a spare so my advice would be to make sure you have one.
On the plus side I ran out next morning and bought myself a kanger subtank mini and am now vaping Mrs Lords Custard Creams at 25w with the airflow half open and wouldn't consider going back to the nautilus, the difference is amazing.
If you get a chance to test out the kanger have a go at it, you wont be dissapointed :).

Edit:
I do find the problem a lot of people are reporting with the 50w IStick though of a non responsive button, at first I thought it was me and I had mispressed it but its definitely the IStick, Iv read a lot of other people complaining about it.

My 30w istick button was unresponsive leading up to its death, I found some times I had to force the button down quite hard to get it to fire, thankfully my 50w has been fine to date.

Been looking at the kangxin kx-50d, never heard of them before, is this a clone of something or a trusted brand? 50w, single 18650 apparently.

no thanks... it has a touch built into it with two functions if only it had three.. lol
 
Howdy long time no see. back from a absolutely absurd ban, got banned for 1 week because a youtube video had one sware word in it it, meh ah well.

hows the vaping going? I took delivery of my copper top caps well, copper pipe reducers, absolutely 100% perfect fit, snug as a bug tollerences are Perfect. That's on a mutation X deck that is, on a airek deck it doesn't fit would need slightly dremmeling out on the inside, not got any other drippers that aren't in use at the moment to try the fit on.

Oh also, the mutation X deck has a small lip around the bottom youll see in the pictures I need to cut out a small groove for it to slide into.

Havent taken a drill to them yet, im going to draw a few air hole designs first before I go for it, probably design them on 3dmax or something.

Also, I gotta wait for my copper praxis mod to arrive anyway, and then once I know what sort of a finish the copper praxis has, I can match it up with my dremmel kit for the same finish.

the pipes came grubby looking on the outside and 100% polished inside, also stamped on the top but that's easily removed with a dremmel, but as a matter of fact I quite like it :p.

oh also, they only cost 1.20 each with free delivery, will definitely be buying more for trying out different air hole designs.

anyways, the pictures:




















 
I completely missed the part about it having a built in torch...really not necessary :p

"but how can we be different from the rest?"

"stick a torch on it, thats what everyone wants!!"

e: Will apparently fire at 0.09ohm :eek:

@ice.. this is what you need mate... yep rba

@pgi, honestly, joking a side; it's not the mod that fires low but the safety in battery. most good mods limit the ohms to stop batteries being blown up in users hands. It's based on a clone dna 40 chip but it gives out 9.9v, minimum for the chip is meant to be 0.5 ohm, so I'm not sure if they modded the chip.

spec sheet

me personally I would get a sigelei 50w if your looking for something similar, but it be interesting to see how the temperature control works.
 
Looking for a single 18650 box mod for the Mrs, is the Sigelei 50w the only good option? Also the best tank? I drip myself so not really a clue.


*Edit. Looking at the 30w Sigelei, any reason why I should not go for it?

I've been using a Smok M65 Pro for about a month now without any issues.

It's the only box mod I've used but was an upgrade from a Vamo V2.

The battery cover is screwed down on the bottom but has a built-in USB charger, which can accept up to 2A, so it's best to leave the battery in and charge through that until the battery goes End of Life (takes a couple of minutes to swap a battery out).

The only niggle I have with it is that the micro USB port for the charging is on the bottom instead of the side. Apart from that can't fault it at all.


As for tanks, the Aspire Nautilus or BeyondVape Silo are well regarded. I've got a Silo Lite on mine at the moment. Runs well but doesn't have adjustable airflow like the full size Silo.
 
Cheers for the reply.

Gone for a Gold Sigelei 30W. :/ Not my choice. :)

Need a good tank with no fear of leaks, also needs to be from a UK supplier, cheers.

*Edit. Lemo 2 Bought.

I see, the only thing that has always put me off of the sigelei box mods, is, well, the fact they're a pointy edged box, I get the feeling it would drive me nuts having it in my pocket, so was looking more at the curved box mods.

I do like my isticks, just having one randomly die on me has made me paranoid, its a lot cheaper to keep spare 18650's then it is spare isticks...
