    First time making liquids

    I get my mixing supplies from LT - they do a good mixing kit for beginners, have a fair range of flavours and their nic is cheaper than most.... UK Nicotine Base

    Don't know if you've noticed it but there's a UK specific forum - you'll find lots of juice recommendations there..... UK Forum

    Oh no - Nick Clegg is a vaper

    Yes, we were sold the EU as purely a cross border trade thing (the only time we had a referendum on it), and the political control has been slipped in under the radar on a drip by drip basis. The only part of it I'd personally keep is the EU Court of Human Rights which has (mostly) been a good...

    Oh no - Nick Clegg is a vaper

    When so many laws and fundamental changes to laws are made in the EU parliament which we (the general public) can seemingly have no influence or voice on, then I suppose it's no surprise that we all get very cynical about politics. I predict that the turnout at the upcoming general election will...

    Oh no - Nick Clegg is a vaper

    Does vaping turn us all into political cynics or were we cynics beforehand? There's probably an essay to be written on this subject.

    Inawera- a few reviews

    It's been a while since I made anything with the WG banana so as an experiment I just tried a drop on the back of the hand and then licking it. Doing it that way it didn't taste at all like banana but the smell going up into the nostrils from the palate was very banana. So maybe use it for the...

    Inawera- a few reviews

    I've got the Wera Garden Banana and it is very banana - and also a tank cracker so beware.

    Would you do this? Oxidized nic.

    I like to use a milk frother for mixing up my DIY juices, and this draws air into the mix potentially oxidising the nic and other ingredients. As an experiment for my latest batch I used the frother but in a tall thin glass so it didn't draw any air into the mixture. The results were that it...

    Istick 30.....Wow

    I've noticed with my 20w version that the first three bars fill up really quickly (maybe 15 mins) and the rest take more time. So yeah, that's normal.

    Refilling formula.

    You should be fine with that. If it was 80%+ VG you might have a problem as it would be a bit on the thick side.

    Dropping in to say and ask a question

    Some people pick up an ecig and never smoke again, and some of us taper off over weeks or months. But yes it can mean an end to smoking and it can be relatively painless - even if you've smoked for decades (that was me). Persevere and I'm sure it'll work for you.

    Why are the threads on my new batteries stripping!!!! Replacement ideas?

    Some of the cheap Ego batteries are made from really inferior steel - I've had cheap ones strip as well. Genuine Joyetech are better built and will last much longer. I've found that generally the Evod style batteries tend to be better quality than Ego ones - and they have the colour changing LED...

    Who has the most "Realistic" Flavors??

    I find Inawera to be pretty good for tasting like it says on the label. Their lemon tastes just like lemon, chocolate like chocolate, coffee, lime, orange and many others all taste just like you'd expect.

    Can someone please help? UK laws have forced my e-juice supplier to have it made in the UK and the replacement which are supposed to taste the same. B

    You should vape at exactly the strength that keeps you off tobacco. If you're happy with 24mg and it's not causing you any problems then continue. There's nothing wrong with trying a lower strength, but if you start feeling the urge for tobacco then it's probably too low. I speak from experience...

    Help rebuilding wick and coil on ce5 clearomizer

    I agree - rebuilding them costs maybe 10% of the costs of a new head. But then I'm cheap.
