Hmm...the guy with the real Nemesis on the previous page...I think it's too shiney, I like mine, the brushed effect with nice shiney accents...

Vapes well...I think...

VA Kraken & Chaplin DT on Luxe Mods Hybrid v2 18350 Battery Tube (Luxe Genesis on my ugly Private v2)

I like the Luxe - but there's something very familiar with the top deck design. It's a very tightly put together hybrid - I'll talk more about the purchasing experience later (wasn't brilliant, tbh) and what you get for the £167.51 (Yeah - he did want the penny +3.4% PayPal fees added to the price, before £7 RMSD postage, which actually cost £6.96... :rolleyes: go figure)

The Kraken is a beautiful atty - very much a perfect vape and the airflow control is a masterpiece! I've never seen the point of spending loadsa money on a high end drip tip, but the Chaplin is equally fine and fits the Kraken (and every single atomiser I own) perfectly. The draw from it is sublime and I haven't once had to have a break to let the DT cool down.

Today has been incredibly busy - but this evening's vaping was so easy and tasty, I have zapped through 2 tanks (roughly 6ml) of Scope's Apple Tart and Accie's Ambrosia in the space of 6 hours.

Nicotine Hangover due in the morning...

Right so I am officially confused now. Trying to find a good starter kit and there is so many options... What is the best? Here is a picture of my shopping cart.... I was going to get this then I read about protank not working, leaking etc. Also protank 2 or 3? Variable battery? etc etc. It is a minefield!

The Evod Battery for a tenner is a very good price. Buy 2. You'll want/need one charging whilst the other is in use and also as a backup (very important when first coming away from the stinkies).

The protank 2 is good, but the mini version, although smaller capacity, fits/looks better on the smaller batteries. But look out for Kanger MT3S, Evod, or an Aspire BDC also. The first two perform as well as each other and are bottom coil, so no need to tilt the tank as you vape, to keep the wick wet. Both are around a fiver...

The Aspire is hailed as on a par with the Kayfun Lite for taste - if you manage to track one down - buy it.

The more tanks you have, the more flavours you can have on the go, so grab at least 3.

Www.joosejuice.co.uk is about the best value in the UK for handmade juices, but need a good couple of weeks steeping before they vape well. £1.49 per 10ml tasters plus 90p p&p, or £7.25 for 60ml plus postage (it's BOGOF on the 30ml bottles, same as the first, no mixing sadly) so find out what you like with small samples (less painful when pouring "Bacon Ice" down the loo if you've only bought 10ml!)

Good luck & well done, we're all here to help you and started at exactly the same point, just at different times. Best decision I ever made - even if it has turned into another expensive hobby that irritates my Wife!

I was doing my morning poo today and wondered what Bacon Juice would taste like as ive seen it being sold on a website before but the thought turned me off.

Im starting to think I may have to put a wizard hat on and order some of the stuff O-o.
:D

yas786 - I bought those o-rings you linked to and they are ****, they don't even fit on the kayfun's screw they are so small. Waste of money.

Really?? i havent got mine yet...if true that sucks balls. Oh well 99p for them isnt too much of a wallet hit but still the guy over at UKV was saying they worked properly.

Guess i might have to sell my KFL and get the plus version as that has an o ring around the fill screw to stop it from leaking. Mine leaks quite a bit if i leave it sitting and not on my provari.

Gents,

I am a complete novice at this stuff had an e-cig with apple flavour once but the battery was cack and it died. I have need a good quality replacement, decent battery life and a good range of flavour. Could anybody spec me a £50 purchase of one? A car charger would be nice and a couple of different fruity style flavours.

Get a passthrough so you can vape and charge at the same time - just need a micro usb car charger then. Smokshop do cheap ones.

Yeah. I go through 3x20ml bottles and 3-4 heads a month. Consider getting a second battery for backup.

I use the 1.8ohm heads with 24mg liquid, but thats quite strong.

Oh, try the code eliq10 for a little off the eliquid.
