    Travelling to the USA (California mainly) for tourism - a few questions

    Hi everybody, I have not been on this forum, or indeed any vaping forum, for quite a few years now, but I thought this might be the right place to ask for some advice from US vapers. Over the next months I will be visiting relatives in the US for a few weeks and do some tourism as well, mainly...

    Ali'i Bottom feeder Replacement Bottles and full assembly?

    I recently got an Ali'i second hand and it only comes with one bottle and tubing. Could anybody suggest where I could get spare bottles and tubing/needle, or even how to DIY the assembly, if it's not available anywhere? I understand Kaji is not making the Ali'i any more, otherwise I would ask...

    Carto makes a flickering noise on my VV, hissing sound on anything else. Possible problem?

    I was trying several cartos and clearomizers on my VV box. I realized that some of them, includign a stardust, makes a flickering sound. As for the rest, they seem to work ok. When on my egos and lavatube, they make the usual hissing sound. All tested at 3,7v on all VPs. Now, the mod had a...

    Voltage and Voltage under load, what can I make of these two values?

    I own a lovely VV box mod with display. With a carto screwed in it gives me the voltage and when I fire another value for the voltage under load. For instance, 7.9 and then 7.4 under load. I know the difference between two values can tell me something about my batteries state, perhpas the...

    Stanstead security on EU flight - Any problems carrying mods in hand luggage?

    I'll be going to Italy in a few days and was wondering if it would be wise to put all my vaping gear in my big luggage, I am a bit worried it might be seized at security (I have 3 ego batteries, a lavatube and a wood box mod) Also, do you know if pressure and temperature changes can affect...

    Bella Valencia & Bella Valente: Different juices or different commercial names?

    I get my Halo from an Irish distributor, Bella Valencia being my favourite. Now, I realize that all the good reviews I read where about Bella Valente, which I might get from another EU distributor. Just, the description of the juice is identical across the names. Is there really a difference...

    Juice turned into one hour in a reeky, rubber like, mess. Contamination?

    Just to be clear, this is not a rant on Bella Valente Halo. It must have got contaminated somewhat, I can't think of anything else. But perhaps somebody might be able to guess what I did wrong. 4 days ago I received a bunch of halo juices, including a 30ml 24mg of Bella Valente. I put the whole...

    Totally Wicked Red Label Flavours - Any advice on which to get?

    I am considering some TW red label tobacco flavours, to start mixing and hopefully savign considerable money. I would go for Patriot, but they are not stocking it right now, so it's going to be red label. Is there any flavour you found particularly good, particulalry as everyday vape? Any...

    Steeping: what's that and when it is appropriate?

    This is not necessarily a question about DIY only. I heard often that some juices will get better with time, like the wine. However, I understand that leaving them alone in dark for a few days, or weeks, might not work well. I heard that somebody will put the juice in hot water, let it cool off...

    Ordering from Halo - Anybody interested in sharing shipping expenses?

    I have heard great things of Halo's line, and was particularly interested in trying their Belladonna. But delivery from USA is a whopping $36, a few dollars less then the value of my order :) Is there anybody, perhaps living in London like me, interested in a joint order so to make shipping...

    ELiquid advice: smooth, lots of vapor, little throat hit, very present but not overpowering dry flavours (nuts, honey)

    Well, I think I put all in the title :) I am looking for a eLiquid like that. Vermillion River Kentucky Cherrywood 14mg fits the bill as for smoothness and mild throat hit, but the flavour is a bit weak in the mouth (but the vapour smells excellent, I ended up exhaling and sniffing frantically...

    A question to the vets: Riva-T or Ego-T?

    I understand this might be a matter of personal taste, more than anything, but being unable/ to try both before hand, I have no idea where my taste should lead me. I am going to get a tank kit which should last me one year. I really need to save money over time, so I'll stick to what I get in...

    Beginner question: Ego T mod with VV ?

    Another very beginner question, I think. Can an Ego T be fitted with a VV battery? Is so, is there any drawback I should consider? Sorry, I am very new to vaping.

    Beginner question: Lava Tube and tanks?

    Can a tank be fitted on a Lavatube mini? If yes, which kind of tank and atomizers would be suitable? I am not sure if I prefer cartomizers or tanks, and I would like to try both. I think I spotted somewhere a message warning that it would void the warranty though, is that correct?

    Backwoods Brew Applewood Tobacco & Vermillion Applewood

    I have read some very good reviews for Backwoods Brew Applewood Tobacco, but in UK I could only find Vermillion River Kentucky Applewood , which I liked but not necessarily loved as I hoped (I am vaping refilled cartomizer on a perhaps so so kit, thought). Has anybody tried both variety and can...

    Thanks!

    I jut finished reading the introductory articles on the site and on an impulse I wished to say thanks. I am not sure who wrote them, perhaps many people with the input of even more, but they are amazingly clear and spot-on. Not something you see everyday :)!

    uecigarette.com for ego kits - Any happy shopper?

    I ran into this internet site from Hong Kong while looking for ego kits, and they have a double Ego-T 1300mAh for £24/$37, with tracked air delivery for less that $2. I researched and seems like they are a real company. Complains are mainly about goods stopped at chinese custom, apparently that...

    Complete newby - How to recharge carto on E-Lite cigarettes and UK eLiquid retailer advice

    Hello everybody, I am so pleased having found this place! Have been 1 pack per day smoker for 20 years and have just switched to vaping, so happy. Got a groupon voucher for E-lite and, due to some problems with their website and a lost delivery which they compensated for, I got two cigarettes...
