£40 for 500ml Nic?! £60 for 5L of VG?!

Darkstar - £12 for 5L VG, 500ml PG Nic for £17.50

Think Vapable have had your pants down there mate.

Could've got your bottles from iBottles - £16.80 for 50 (100ml needle tipped)

Darkstar have by far the best prices, although I spent near £150 there and Flavour art I have enough nic to last several years with the new regs in May and can make 3l of juice near enough before needing more flavours.

Much better than spending £30-40 for 100 ml :eek:

In other news my fasttech order that was placed on the 17th has been stuck as
2017-01-23 06:16 In Beijing, leaving Beijing to London-Heathrow airport hub

Received today an item I ordered with e-packet 7 days after ordering. Some other items I ordered a week earlier using China Post is still in transit.

Yeah, it's become a no brainier to use epacket now, plus the tracking works all the way to the UK unlike China post where it stops once it leaves China, or at least in my case it does.

Jesus. I have been royally shafted there - should've shopped around :(
In my defence, I'm on an oil rig with hopelessly slow internet (it took me 2 hours to get that order together) so, shopping around is a bit of a chore. I'll know better in future.
 
With the Nic I decanted my bottle into smaller 30ml bottles ( TI dont seem to go through juice THAT much), placed them in a box and have left them outside in the garage, would this be enough to keep it fresh?
Does PG VG need the same treatment or they okay as they are?

Also, any actual Battery vendors that ship to NI?

You don't need a charger, the rx200 has a usb port that allows charging and firmware updates. I never use chargers and just charge my devices via their USB ports, saves on more gear that you end up only sticking in a draw later.

Just grab the Cleito 120 and save that charger money and invest it in coils or the RTA for it.

That's just a tad worrying if you charge your 18650 via usb you defiantly should be using a dedicated charger for those battery's.

The micro usb should only be used for firmware update or in a utter emergency for a quick charge but not all the time.
 
For me, if it's a single-18650 mod then I will use the USB to charge. If it's a multi-battery mod that isn't using a DNA75/200/250 chip then I will use an external charger. The DNAs do a proper balance charge.
The RXs are notorious for not charging one of the batteries as high as the others thus putting more stress on that cell when firing.

I wouldn't say it is tbh. I'd keep it in the fridge if you can.

PG/VG I just keep out although there's no harm in keeping them cold too. Just remember that VG is a royal pita to work with when it's cold.
 
I would 100% keep larger quantities of nicotine in the freezer and a smaller bottle you plan to use in the fridge! Will keep it fresh for a long time :)

Had a nice juice delivery this morning. Sherbet Fizz is still my number vape these days!

SO find a corner in the freezer? I assume Nic doesnt actually freeze then?

If it's Nic suspended in PG it won't freeze, unless your freezer goes down to around -50c.

With the nic I'd make sure to keep it in glass bottles at the very least as it can cause chemical leeching from the plastic.

Not entirely true. HDPE/LDPE bottles are mostly used to store Nicotine. I wouldn't recommend storing it in say PET bottles mind you.

You can probably pick up some amber glass bottles from a Chemist or online. So if you're after some seriously long term storage, go down that route.
 
I think I went lazy and just bought a freezer pack from Darkstar. Pretty sure it wasn't that much more than buying the nic from them and then buying my own glass bottles. Don't remember the numbers off hand but I'm pretty tight so likely wouldn't have bought that way if it cost a ton more.

Edit: It is a good bit more. Around 12 quid.
 
I'm off into town soon to pickup my early birthday present..

Smok G-Priv 220w kit with Big Baby tank.. hopefully these dont leak like my last one did this morning... pocket full of juice :?

G-Priv is awesome.

Big Baby has popped open on me several times, but not leaked out the fill port... it has leaked out the airflow, though, even after being kept upright overnight.
The coils are surprisingly naff, although many shops and users reporting the same seem to think it's just a load of bad batches...

Let's us know how you get on with the g priv. I've ordered just the mod itself from FT but won't have it till a few weeks as it's their Chinese New Year and won't be despatched till the 3rd of Feb.
 
just picked it up..

straight away compared to my TF-v4 tank with quad coils and a dual battery mod this thing pumps out some flavor and cloud.. different league.. and the touch screen is a nice touch.. running it with the supplied big baby tank and X4 coil.

if I had one complaint?? i hate when they stick USB ports on the bottom.. cant stand it up while plugged in.
 
Oh well just went and bought another ijoy limitless combo tank for £17, which is roughly half the price I bought my original one last year.

Damn you FT for being so cheap lol, making me spend more money and allowing me to use REDPACKET code lol.

Honestly though it's one of my fave tanks to build on, got a dual clapton setup on the one I have now and it chugs like a champ. Albeit when I first got it I was ready to bin it but took it to the vape shop I got it from and they sorted it for me.
