    Best MTL Tank?

    My mistake. I thought one was called 'doggy' and the other 'doggystyle'. If the original is also 'doggystyle' then that would explain a lot. Those damned Frenchies are obsessed with procreation. From now on i'll stick to good old English atomisers such as the 'Abstinence' or the...

    What bad hardware have you bought ?

    Everything i have bought has educated me to some extent. Saying that, i remember thinking that replaceable head top coil silica wick CE4 type clearomisers were the epitome of vaping. I proceeded to buy 100 coil heads from an obscure Chinese seller just before the bottom coil (Protank et al)...

    I dare you...shows us how crazy you went at FT

    42 pages - the reality is more like 200 pages but 42 seems to be the cut-off (2015). I would love to have replied with 'i've never used FT because i object to buying cheap stuff from a foreign company' but that would be untrue. I always want to pay the minimum amount possible. Capitalism at...

    Best MTL Tank?

    Not sure the term 'clone' even applies to this atomiser. It's branded as a 'doggystyle' so there is no attemp to decieve. I too, assumed it was an original design because who on earth would call an atomiser 'doggy(style)' except the Chinese ?!! I have a Seiko 5 watch remarkably similar to a...

    Best MTL Tank?

    SKX 'Clone': FT (Use discount MAP in the basket)..... Exceptionally well made. I wasn't even aware there was an 'authentic' !

    Best MTL Tank?

    For me the Doggystyle vapes the same as a Kayfun (a little airier - but still MTL). The chimney is about the same diameter and the bell is slightly bigger. I vape 16MG liquids and get the same TH (if not a little more) than the Kayfun. I find because of the wicking system and slightly more air i...

    Best MTL Tank?

    The doggystyle has replaced the Kayfun 3 mini as my go-to tank. Mounting the coil is so much easier on the doggy. Wicking is more forgiving too. I've never had a dry hit or a leak. The air flow control ring is too loose for me so i super glue it fully open and forget it's there. The acrylic tank...

    Best MTL Tank?

    Right now the doggystyle RTA is the best rebuildable MTL tank i have tried. Kabuki works well if you don't want to build...... OT but; I'm always wary of polls asking which is the best (insert item here) ? The assumption is that the pollers have tried EVERY other *whatever* and then decided. The...

    How many mods and tanks do you own ?

    Ok, so i counted up to 117 Mods and 100 atties before i realised that i may have a problem.... with where to store any more ! As a smoker i would spend £200 a month on cigarettes, I probably spend the same on vaping. DIY cost me around £10 a month, the rest is spent on mods and atties. My...

    How many mods and tanks do you own ?

    Seriously ? Too many to count - More than the total stock of any B&M i've been in. Vaping is a way of life !

    Custom regulations in UK

    I've never had an issue with customs when buying from FastTech (it helps that they will put a very low value on the customs declaration). If you opt for UK epacket (costs around an extra $1) at checkout you should recieve your package in 7-10 days. Using regular (free) post will mean a 3-4 week...

    Heeeelp, gross aftertaste!

    Sometimes it just happens... Every now and then i come across flavours that other people enjoy and all i get is a disgusting after taste. The initial inhale can be pleasant enough but a second or two after the exhale the wrongness hits me. Once i focus on the residue taste i can't use that...

    Change to AWT 18350 high drain (yellow)

    I run my 18350 Trustfire batteries at 18w with a 1.6 resistance (3.4 amps) and get 2.5 hours vaping before hitting low voltage cut off at 3.2v. Ok, just tried the same battery at 4v no load in my Provari mini with a 1.1 ohm coil at 4v (14.5 watts) and under load it's showing 3.6v. Not...

    I wouldn't recommend the Smok Alien for a New mod

    Couldn't resist - i have a Provari V2 that's five years old and still working and in good order (i probly use it for 10 mins a day) but, for me, the king of all mods for durability/price is the original MVP - after i stopped using it as a mod (due to the eGo threading) i carried on using it as a...

    A juice like dinner lady lemon tart

    If you can shop in the UK try Darkstarvapour. They do a one-shot pre-mixed lemon tart. It's mixed from an open recipe so you could try making it yourself but, quite frankly, it's cheaper to buy the pre-mixed. Trust me, it's the best i have tried (30ml concentrate for £4.99).

    How much?

    Can't remember who originally postulated this method of calculation or the justification (it seemed logical at the time); Multiply MG per day by strength of eliquid (10 x 12 = 120). Then divide by 3.3 to get a rough guide. That makes you a 36 a day man ! I know it worked for me when i was on...

    Lucky escape with a regulated mod and cell?

    I had a D2 start auto-firing on me for no discernable reason. The mod was 6 months old but barely used and never taken out of the house. An Evic VTC mini also just stopped working for no obvious reason. To add context to that statement i must add that i own and use upward of 100 mods in...

    Success and.... annoyance and (eventually) question

    How many readers are now sticking their mod up their nose ? I know i just did. OP - I had ONE implant and it felt like i'd done 5 rounds in a boxing ring - Kudos to you.

    Kanger kbox 70w no low resistance protection?

    Can't say much for the electronics in Kanger mods - they're all pretty much the same at that price point, but the build quality is haphazard bordering on shoddy IMO. The shame of it is that 2-3 years ago i would recommend Kanger products as solid. I wish they'd just stop trying to bring out a...

    Ipv D2 battery meter problem!

    The mod is reading the battery under load when you fire it. That seems like a lot of battery sag unless you're firing very low resistance coils. Make sure you have a good quality battery (Sony, Samsung, HG) in good condition and with a high enough amp rating. Use a higher rated amp battery and...
