How are u getting on decanting?
and i know you have done your homework, glass bottles are recommended for long storage of nic, as nic can breakdown plastic over time ;):p

Didn't manage to get to the chemist today unfortunately as the car needed a service so will be picking up the bottles tomorrow. Got my measuring jug and funnels at the ready though!

I'll still probably use glass to store away some of the PG as I've ordered a 300ml empty bottle anyway. The VG is not so much of an issue as I got the 200ml bottle from Boots and will just buy as and when I need it.

Ordered my PG just now from Classikool so I should have everything once it arrives. Hoping it gets here by Saturday so I can mix at the weekend.

How are your liquids coming along? You must have taken the tops of to have a nose!

I am being patient lol
The fruit based ones i have already tried, the Capella Lemon & Lime is very nice and the Capella Harvest Berry is lovely, so been vaping these for the last few days.
Got 50ml of Vanilla Custard steeping for the last 10 days, so only 11-15 days to go :(
Some of the others i have been advised to steep for a minimum of 2 weeks, so some are 10 days old, but most are only 3 days old now

If you need them soon, Torchy on ebay is well respected:

Look for IMR 18350 batteries. Either AW or Efest branded are the usual recommendations.

As for a charger, the two brands that are decent are nitecore, who make the intellicharger i2 and i4, and Xtar.

If you're prepared to wait and save some money:

Batteries:

Charger:

They also do the i2 which is the 2 bay charger and cheaper. You can select it from the drop down box.

Good to hear they're turning out well! Not too long to go then for some of the others. Are you using just the Capella and EM in the vanilla custard or are you using the recipe that adds some TPA French Vanilla Deluxe into it?

+1 for the nitecore charger. I have the i4 and it's great being able to charge all 4 18650s after a weekend away, or to mix 18350 and 18650 batts. Panasonic make some decent batts too, but torchy has good deals and is easier to find.
 
just the Capella, Dulce de leche and EM, going witht that first as i didnt have any TPA French Vanilla Deluxe

The ability to charge different batteries at the same time is very handy. The 18650s do take a while to charge though. I've only just charged the two I have for the first time and it was something like 8 hours. How long does it take with all 4 in there?

Those chargers from Fasttech only have the option of a US or EU plug - the only one with a UK plug is this one: www.fasttech.com/products/0/10000740/1065500-ultrafire-wf-128-uk-plug-battery-charger
Any good?

If you don't want to use an adapter, the power lead you need for the intellichargers are just a normal figure of 8 lead that you've probably got lying around:

I'd be happy to send one I have as I've got a couple spare but buying one from ebay will be cheaper than the postage! I don't know how some of these sellers are able to send stuff at this price but I'd certainly like to know!

Nitecore's reputation seems to be better than brands such as Ultrafire/Trustfire.

No, sorry! I have some of those power leads spare :)

If it's in budget and you can wait, get an i2 or an i4 from Fasttech. They are very good chargers. Buying ultra cheap chargers is just asking for trouble.

Pretty sure mine don't take that long, but I do swap them out at 3.7V at least. With all 4 I generally charge them overnight so not sure!
 
After dithering for ages I've just pushed go on a Kanger Protank (with 5 replaceable 1.8 heads) from Vape Escape, and a Vamo VV VW black chrome (with 18650 battery and charger) from Vapingthings.

Looking forward to it. Will keep my Ego and Vivi Nova as a spare backup, I think.
