Don't know if anyone does serious tracking on FT orders via CP but they normally go from FT to Huizon City sorting office, then on to Guangzhou (which is near the Airport) then via Canton Airport to LHR, I've had a small order in since the beginning of the month and it is tracking differently, translation not too good, think Opening probably means Arriving:

Pretty odd translation! Bit of a guessing task as to exactly what it means!
Hope it turns up soon
I had a package arrive at Heathrow on 15th and it's here today. I didn't pay for the upgraded shipping on this one and it took 18 days again.
I suspect that what did originally state to be BVC coils is in fact the BDC old version! Looks the same until I peer down the chimney and can see the 'stuffing' rather than just a mesh screen!
The original descriptions/part numbers don't resolve to a page anymore, so they obviously had a problem with the description they'd had.
For what they cost, I'll just use them and hope they don't leak ...that's something that does annoy me!

Well, I have now ...and I do like it!
I know taste is subjective, but I'd say, if you like RY's, then you'd probably like this.
It has the same type of taste, but with an added flavour to it that's hard to describe: sort of toasty/baked caramel, syrupy ...now and then I get the memory of hot baked jam on the side of the tin after jam tarts have come out of the oven! ...a sort of underlying baked sugar fruitiness.
For me it's flavoursome, warmly comforting and rich. (I imagine if a Bourbon or Cognac was a late night tipple, it would go very well with it) ...for me, it's a good cup of tea!
Don't know if that forms into any sort of sense
As I said, I like it, and keep reaching for it!
____________________________________________________________________________
Thinking on what you said about sticking to those I like best: just ordered 100ml .6mg Mint Choc Vapetto! When it gets down, I'll order more plus some in zero to start diluting it a bit.
I already have Posset diluted and don't notice the difference.
I still have plenty of others in .6mg plus the WTA.

Well thanks for a very informative review trish, you have given a very good description there. I will get a 10 ml sample when i next place an order.
If i am honest diluting the posset, or any liquid shouldn`t affect the flavour really, as long as you are doing it with a lower nic juice with the same flavour, and not just plain VG. Doing my SD&C actually made it taste a lot better.

I'd just commented on your BVC heads in the nautilus thread... a bit crap that they arent as described. As you say though, for the cost it doesnt matter, but i got a bit fed up of waiting a month for things to arrive which either didnt work or were not what id ordered
I was looking at mypeack earlier as the nautilus is working so well i'm tempted to get another, but i see kanger have a couple of new clearos out too. Have any of you tried the Genitank or the Aeortank V2?
I also took a look at some of their RBAs/RDAs and some of them look alright too - a bit dearer than FT but then there are so many clone makers these days that there can be a vast difference between one clone and another. The one that took my eye was the oddy clone - similar set up to the sophia with the ceramic cup, which i find much easier to rebuild, but wondered if it would be NR - R - NR wire too as it doesnt really say on the website. It's £20 and FT are knocking them out for about half that, but neither really gives much detail.

Is that the odyseus clone cody ? if it is can`t you check their website out to see what wire it uses ? Not much help, but the info may be there.

They are probably better with lower nicotine because it's not interfering with the flavour as much.
What I meant was, the slightly lower nicotine isn't noticeable to me ..doing it gradually whilst using other .6 etc. makes it easier.
a/b's working yet? ..I hope so
If you opt for the upgraded delivery ..costs under a dollar, it takes perhaps 6-7 days off delivery time, and I got my last one in 12 days.I'd just commented on your BVC heads in the nautilus thread... a bit crap that they arent as described. As you say though, for the cost it doesnt matter, but i got a bit fed up of waiting a month for things to arrive which either didnt work or were not what id ordered
Usually, they've been taking 18 days without the extra bit for delivery, as long as they're stock or next day despatch items: so if you want some of those plus anything with 3-5 days, it's best split it into two orders.
I just had a quick look at a Genitank - looks a bit like a PT3 ? and has the same V2 coils. For now, I'm happy with the PT2 and MOW, plus of course my mini Nautili, but I do have a mini Aerotank I haven't tried yet.
LTECigs have the Aspire mini Nautilus for £18, and I've been tempted to get one of those.
I know extremely little about RBAs/RDAs - not at all interested in rebuilding them myself, so will stick to the 'normal' type
I do think you'll like it if you like the RY's.

Ah right i gotcha now, i think my next step will be to try some 12 mg juices, but i wouldn`t like to go lower than that really. The Ab`s do seem to be doing the job trish,still a bit sore but i think the swelling has gone down a touch.
I will say one thing though, i had to cancel the CT scan for today, because i can`t seem to keep off the toilet
Don`t want to be stuck on a bus in a situation like that. ( unless it`s ians bus that is ) I was happy with 12mg for a good while, and at LT, I dropped to 1.0mg and .8, so that made it quite easy - my goal has always been to at least try to not be nicotine dependent and just enjoy it - seem to be slowly getting towards that, & time will tell though for lower! We just need to use what we're happy with
That'll be the a/b's ..unpleasant side-effect many get! When you do go out, don't forget some probiotics for when they're finished ..you'll need them.I will say one thing though, i had to cancel the CT scan for today, because i can`t seem to keep off the toilet
Glad they're starting to work!
For now, stay close to the bathroom! ______________________________________________________________________________
Remember I made some of the Lime Ice Drop? Tried it today and it's nice! Could do with a drop or two extra menthol and perhaps one of Koolada for me, but it is a good lime!
I have a feeling it would mix OK with a bit of Vanilla ice cream too, so may try that!

Nope i am always within striking distance trish
Thanks for the reminder for the probiotics, the wife can pick me some up tomorrow when she goes out.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes i do remember trisha, and it is fantastic that you are having some success. I suppose that is one beauty of DIY, you can mix and match to your own specifications. Well done, keep up the good work.
Haven't tried the Genitank, but the Aerotank v2 are better than the v1, and if you have a v1 myepack sell the a/f controller on its own so you can convert a v1 into a v2, then use the v1 controller on any PT that you might have lying around, which is what I did with my PT3. I believe the Genitank has the same type of a/f controller as the MOW.
EDIT: Another to have a look at is the Anyvape Peakomizer, takes the original Aspire (not Nautilus) BDC heads, has an Airflow controller and is top filling.
I have quite a few different types and although it doesn't have an a/f controller the one I prefer the most is the Innokin iClear X.I which takes the 30b heads

That does sound pretty delicious. I need to get some more bottles before I can mix the LT lime flavour I got. Was thinking raspberry/lime might be nice as well.
In other news, got 2 packages from FT today, huzzah. Some drip tips that were sent regular (<$20) mail took 25 days (inc weekends) to get here which isn't terrible considering I think they say up to 30 working days. I wasn't in a hurry for them anyway. One of them has the same problem as another I got from FT in that the o-ring is too beefy! I think I know the answer already but does no-one check this kind of thing at FT!
The other order was a kayfun lite plus v2 clone (plus the newer style top cap) and a magma clone, this one only took 11 days to get here. Pleased about that. These two clones look great and machining on them seems very clean (except the kayfun drip tip had a mysterious metal shaving stuck in it, which was easily removed).
I'll have to get out the wire and tools later to try at least one of them out.

Should get here by Wed or Thurs if I'm lucky, - no guessing needed - starting at bottom - they collected the parcel from FT 15/08 - it then went to and arrived at Tianjin on 16/08 where 15 minutes later it put into the pile to Beijing, it then left Beijing on 17/08 for PEKing Airport where it was put into the cargo manifest @ 02.21 Beijing time (19:21 BST yesterday), from there it will then be loaded onto either a cargo or passenger plane to LHR hopefully arriving today or tomorrow (flight time is about 11 hours)
I had a package arrive at Heathrow on 15th and it's here today. I didn't pay for the upgraded shipping on this one and it took 18 days again.

Sounds like they are the BDCs, they will still work, to make sure they don't leak, they should be done up tight enough but not over tightened, 18 days by SG to where you are is very good for them, but next time give CP a go, if mine get here by Wednesday, then that would only be 7 days from the date that FT told me it had shipped, I'll let you know when they actually get here.

...never know!By the way, it's Frozen Lime Drop ...I got the name wrong!
I see - just had a closer look. Wonder if there's any advantage over the MOW, or just that it's a clear glass tank.
Chefs Vapours have a huge range of flavours and concentrates. The Frozen Lime Drop is a concentrate that I used at 20%:
Frozen Lime Drop
There's also a Cherry Lime one, and that's used at around 4%:
Cherry Limeade
For the lime one I've done, I used a ready made VG base with .6% nicotine already added.
I just got 6 different ones from FT and they all fit what I wanted them for. One is way too wide though ...more like a N Sea gas pipe than a drip tip!In other news, got 2 packages from FT today, huzzah.

There you go, you can even speak Chinese translation!
It made little sense to me.Is that CP without a little extra for upgraded airmail? Nice fast delivery.
I had a BVC pouring out last week, just as I was reading a thread on those coils, and someone said not to put the base on too tight - I dried mine off, put it back on but not as tight and it's fine!
Very true at the minute trish.New saying: 'keep your friends close, and your toilet even closer'!

Nope not a fluke at all, you are doing great.
I had the same problem with google adwords when I had the website (as part of the business). Paid for a few months and didn't notice any difference at all in sales. So sometimes advertising can be a waste of time. Good CS always seems to be the best way to increase business
Your set up sounds much more advanced than mine. I can use the zoom on mine and that's about it
Thats the reason i went back to a single coil set up mate A- one of the coils was crap, i didn`t notice till i posted the pic
My dual coils aren't too bad now I've had a bit of practice. It's just the fine tweeking that I need to get perfect now.
Sorry can't help on that one mate. I would say though, if the coil legs need to be longer than about 20mm, you'll probably need NR/R/NR coils.
How's the KFL doing now Cody ??

The V2 Kayfun is a good performer Adam, got one myself. I've opened up the airflow to maximum, plenty of clouds and flavour.
I'll be interested to hear what you think about the Magma. I've got a couple in my wishlist, cos I'm thinking about trying to convert one to bottom feeding - the way I've modded the Stillare to fit on the Reo.
if you are only after the Mini then yes, otherwise the rest of the range have a 510 connector instead.
I just got 6 different ones from FT and they all fit what I wanted them for. One is way too wide though ...more like a N Sea gas pipe than a drip tip!
That's is a proper DRIP tip, used for dripping...
