    my charger only works when plugged into the mains...

    Hi guys! It's been a while! If the font looks huge, it's because I'm on my phone doing this and am totally inept with it! A couple of weeks ago I bought a new charger for my 650 ego battery from a TW B+MORE. But if I plug them into the use ports on my pc or a portable battery charger, they...

    Unusual 'ribbing' on my Ego battery

    Hi guys! It's been AAAAAAGES since I came on here! I've been happily vaping away with my EVOD and Ego 650 batteries... Vaping wise (aside from a few hiccups), I've been a veritable a pig in poo! I bought my Ego-C nearly a year ago and just this week I've noticed a strange ribbing around the...

    Evod rebuild fail!

    Sorry if this is technically in the wrong section So in a rather bemusing set of circumstances, I appear to have fried the wire on my new EVOD rebuild within the first hour of use. Everything was fine until I put on a fully charged EGO-C 650 battery and then it started to taste funny...then...

    A special moment in my life

    There are moments in every girl's life which are special. Her first pair of shoes, the first hand bag she chose herself (I was one and dragged my dad back across Hamley's toy store for it...I've still got it!), her first day of school, her wedding day, the birth of her first child... today is...

    That awful moment when...

    You realise you diluted the 3mg bottle of juice by half, and not the 6mg bottle which you'd happily been vaping away on for days, getting a real kick and thinking how easy it was to knock it down to 3mg... That wonderful moment when you realise that you're just about stopping short of climbing...

    How to use a multimeter?!

    Hi guys! I'm thinking about rebuilding the coils on my EVOD but I really don't know how to use a multimeter! Its not something I ever thought I'd need to buy- or ask about! I'm using Ego-C batteries, the 650Mah ones, and I wouldn't want them to short out so how would I make sure that i'm...

    Recoiling and rewicking EVODS?

    Hey all! I bought my EVOD about 10 days ago and I love it...but I'm starting to think about rewicking and recoiling the heads...but I've no idea where to start! I don't know what wick to buy, or what coil stuff to buy, or where from in the UK. What's more, I'm liking the 1.8 Ohms but if I...

    Ego-C and the constant burnt and nasty taste!

    Hi guys! I bought an ego-c back at the end of June and I've had no end of problems with it! I'd really like the Ecab but thought it wise to upgrade from my 510 penstyles... as everyone seemed to rave about ego-c's, particularly the twists, I thought I'd give it a go. But it constantly tastes...

    Faulty battery chargers?

    So a few weeks ago, I broke one on my original battery chargers used for charging either my 510 Penstyle or 650Mah Ego batteries. I bought a new one from VapeEscape but when it arrived, it really didn't want to charge any of my batteries. The red light stayed on and the batteries never got...

    PVs and weight gain?

    My weight has been known to fluctuate over the last ten years or so but in the last six months (the last three months particularly), I've noticed some weight gain. As I've been vaping for six months, I wondered if there was a link? Where with cigarettes, I could smoke to my heart's content and...

    I bought myself a present today...

    So today I was in my campus bookshop and found a book I thought would be interesting. Perhaps this will help me keep on the straight and narrow as I've actually slipped a bit in the last couple of days... 4 whole cigs...real ones!!! £4 for a pack of ten though, are they mad?! Anyway, I bought...

    The stupidest place to lose your PV...

    So, I've mentioned before that I once lost my PV in the lining of my handbag. It took months for me to find it and when I eventually did, it was like the last episode of Sex and the City where Carrie finds her necklace... But this evening I had another panic. I was sat here quite happily...

    3 months of usage monitoring

    Month three started out with an optimistic attempt to use 8mg during the day and 4mg at night or while chain vaping. This did not work out as well as I'd hoped. In certain circumstances, I think it's quite sensible for me to use 4mg - like when I drive, because I know no matter what the...

    Is it my juice, is it my carto?! What on earth is it?!

    So I use boge SR cartos and I love them but recently they've been doing crazy things. I changed juices from my DIY'd juices back to store made as I wanted to use them up but they never clogged my cartos like this before! Even on brand new cartos, I'm having to take way heavier draws and a carto...

    510 Battery lifetime...

    So I've got a load of 510 batteries which I've had for about 3 months. When I first got them, I was using about 3 batteries a day, give or take. Now, I'm finding that they're not lasting that long at all and I'm maybe using 5. Does this sound like a reasonable lifetime from them or could it just...

    Month 2 of monitoring my usage...guidance please!

    In my second month, I've cheated a little. In the first two week, I used 11mg religiously. By the second two weeks I was using 10mg, thinking I could cut down still further. Using 10mg didn't stick around for long though as I thought about using a lower nicotine strength closer to bedtime and...

    PV friends!

    So, I've been quite vocal with my friends about how much I love my PV... they're inundated with FB statuses regarding FDA/EU tosh and how well I'm doing yet one of my friends clearly didn't realise I was using a PV. Nearly 6 years ago, I met a lovely chap called Obi. We met at uni during a...

    ANOTHER nicotine reduction?

    Ladies and gentlemen, I've done it again...I've accidentally dropped my nicotine! I've been deliberately trying to reduce it but this jump is insane! Four months and two days ago, I was using 24mg first thing in a morning and 18mg during the day. A week before Christmas I was using 18mg...

    A chamomile tea extraction method

    Now, don't get me wrong, I only made a small quantity...any more than this and I doubt the method would work well enough... I took a large pan and a small ramakin. I put the ramakin in the pan and filled said pan halfway up the height of the ramakin. I then left the ramakin to heat up in said...
