Wth?That makes my local store look like a charity shop!
I know, I have been to said shop, it is run/owned by a lad I was good friends with at school a long time ago.
It's in a swanky "up and coming" part of town, full of bistro's and kids with scruffy £500 jeans, hence the outragous price no doubt.
Most new people to vaping have no idea that online is the place to get 99% of things you need, at a fraction of the cost. The prefer B&M as they can ask questions about clearo's and tanks and juice etc.
The amount of people I have who stop me in the street just to ask basic stuff about starter kits is astounding. I try to help where I can and generally refer them to online shops I reommend.
Wow, that's ridiculous. Poor sod!!!
Not all B&M's are like that, a few local to me only charge a few quid more, not close to 4x the online price

Hi
Has anyone ordered from Fasttech? I've heard good things about it as most of the parts are made in china, by ordering from there is just soting out the middle man (b&m).
Thanks..

Assuming I don't want to go down the dripping route, and that I'm not ready to start building my own kit, what would be a good mod for a sub 1ohm tank, like the Atlantis? Would I be looking at something like Sigelei 100W Box Mod?
I could probably flog my mvp2 for close to what I paid for it to recoup some of the cost.

I use FT all the time. What ever you pick read the forum there about it before you buy. And always pick China Post for delivery.

The sigelei 100w box mod is my next purchase
it will Vape whatever you throw at it, you just need 2 decent batteries and a charger

It doesn't come with batteries? Boo
What would the kind people here recommend for batteries - looks like I'll be spending more than I originally thought
EDIT - and it looks like I'd need a standalone battery charger as well...
The cool thing is, no matter what I spend on vaping, it is still less than what I would have spent on smoking!

I too bought Parallax, Cold Trill and Andromeda.
I'm not into the Drakula, never really got any flavour from it.
Why did you join up instead of just purchasing direct from the store?
Nopes, just use the shop.
Just had shipping confirmation, with a bit of luck it will arrive tomorrow!
The sigelei 100W, I just sold mine as it never got used. The main reason for that was that fact it has no USB charging. The convenience of USB charging is too much of a factor for me to continue using it as an ADV, having had my hana for months with this commodity, losing that was horrible!

I got the 100w v3 and tge i4 nite core charger for £80 from p vapes. It's bloody lovely. Also 2 Samsung 25r 18650 batteries from Essex vapours for £14 quid posted.
That's about the cheapest you will pick up everything you need

es mate I love it. £60 for the v3 is a cracking price for a lovely little bit of vape gear. It helps that I loved box mods as well as it just feels good in the hand

It may be easier to charge USB but I put two fully charged Sammy 25r's in last night and I've been caning it all day as I've been off and its at 75 per cent still. I can get two full days of heavy taping at 18 watts on my kayfun easy so its not like I'm forever charging them
That's a startup cost saving, in future all you have is coils and juice. So in a few months you'll have a bad back from all that cash in your pocket..Yep I got it from C9V, really nice website!
I have an ego style basic but it was harsh and raspy so got this setup, first day of using it and I have had 4 normal smokes but the last one was weird. Aiming to be on 1 or 2 a day by tuesday as I am having a wisdom tooth out, if I keep saying to myself that no smoking once the tooth is out the quicker it will heal and let me drink at taste of London!
I worked out that the Istick and Naut Mini with 50ml of juices come up to around the £80 mark, this should last me 6-8 weeks as an estimate. 6 - 8 weeks of smoking L&B's would cost in the region of £350!! A massive saving which will go to a trip to Canada with my Mrs
Oh and if you like Wrigley's Extra gum, c9v's Mystic Ice mint is as close as you could ever get.. First thing in the morning that's the tank of juice I head for because it's so smooth to vape on. Mystic is 60vg/40pg so either of the two middle range air holes is ideal. personally I didn't even plan on quitting, I just brought a device to get me though Monday nights when I went racing and as an experiment I thought I'd see how long before I needed a cig and I've not smoked since, over 8 months ago.I should be off down to c9v in the morning, just a few miles from me and I'll have a chat with Keith about charging rate and passthrough rates for you.
Now gotta convince the missus to get on these. I never thought i'd say this after 20 years together but since switching i dread kissing her, it smells. Edit : to pre-empt GD responses it = smoke breath and taste, not it = wife monster
