That's the one with a built in 18650 battery and is only 1500mAh, less power, and I wouldn't trust the battery
The one I linked to is the one that doesn't include the 18650 batteries which would be more advisable.

The link I sent earlier is the search result for 'VV/VW usb 18650' - there's a few cylindrical ones that meet those specs, just not sure if they're particularly good.

Most of those tube mods were not well known ones, the Vamo was the only really known one and that was not USB chargeable.

Edit saw your comment on single chargers, any of those type of chargers I would throw in the bin straight away, chinese rubbish

That's the one with a built in Lipo battery and is only 1500mAh, like the MVP only less power, so you wouldn't need 18650 batteries for that one.
The one I linked to is the one that takes the 18650 batteries which would be more powerful.
Oh! Good thing I didn't order it! :laugh:
I'll take another look at the one you linked to.

Thanks for looking at them. I don't know anything about that type :)

So, back to the beginning - I either get the red battery 30 or forget it! ;)

The Doughnut is really nice already too - given a few more days it'll likely be even better! Been using it a fair bit tonight.

When you get those tablets, try one next time it flares up and see if it calms it down - works well for me :)

:pop:

Yes two to look forward to trying :) I will definitely be trying the pills as soon as they arrive trish :)

Thinking about it, the one you were looking at is cheaper, so might be okay getting it, throw the battery away, and get a decent battery for it, only thing is it will have to come by Malaysia Post because of the battery, pictures are not always good, but there also does look to be a slight difference.

EDIT if you do this show a picture of the battery before throwing it, it may be an okay one.

Yes, two nice ones! Pity the orders got mixed up - felt sorry for us and sorry for Chefs! :)

Hadn't noticed it was only 1500 though, and it's the longer length between charges that I like (as well as the colour!) - Kanger have a battery coming soon that's 1600 and goes from 3-15W and is usb charged, so similar to the Spinner ll for charge times.
The one you linked to would be better. I see it's a little different, plus although a tiny bit bigger, it's 25gr lighter! I'll think about it :)

Wish they would ship from the USA warehouse to UK - that really looks superb

Let me see what it is like, if it is good, I will order one for you, and ship it to you, you just have to pay what it cost, and for me to ship it to the UK. When I sent the Fogger to Ian last December it was around $10 shipping to the UK. But let me see if it is a good dripper first. Also they may stock it in the China warehouse and you could get it for less.

Well Lads & Lassie, my MBV turned up yesterday, and seeing as I couldn't wait another day, filled up a Kayfun with the LemonBar, definitely a stronger lemony taste on the inhale than Posset, and a lovely sponge taste as well on the exhale, just like a lemon drizzle cake, very nice, when I get a mod free will give the Moo Juice a try.

I may have to place another small order with MBV or get a bottle of the concentrate from CV - don't suppose you've got the Chefs Lemon Coconut Cream Cake to compare it with? I'm really liking that one a lot :)

Terry has both - will have to see how he thinks they compare too!

Bob did you get any of their sweet cream ? if you did, try mixing a bit with the lemon bar to make it into lemon cream cake. :D If not still very enjoyable on it`s own.

Trish, i had to re-wick one of my kayfuns before the SD&C one, cos it stated to taste off. That done and lovely again, i had to put a new lower ohm coil in another tank,, the one with the coffee and cream, and that is also tasting very nice again :) Unfortunately that means i haven`t yet had time to clean a tank for the lemon cream cake, but i will try and do it later, or if not it will be tomorrow. Then i can give you a comparison on the two. :)

Yes, got that and the whipped cream along with the Moo Juice, some more Bavarian Cream & Blue Moo, all +2, will try that when I empty this KF

Just a quick one :ohmy:

I'll be replying properly later, bit busy ay the moment.

My MBV order arrived today too :D Been busy rewicking etc today and still not finished yet, back later :)

I been up at Dulwich Hamlet watching us play Hendon, p.poor game 0-0 so will have to do some coiling and wicking on my new things tomorrow or Monday, I got 3 KFs to do and about 5 drippers but they can wait as I have a few drippers all ready made up.

It is worth getting just to look at the pre-built coil/wick - it is a work of art (think they used nichrome though as it was very shiny), checked it on the meter and it came in at 1.1, primed the coil & loaded it up with MBV Dulce de Leche (Terrys fav :evil:) and had to crank it up from 10W to 15w - no leaks, it has 3 air holes round the bottom and it is a very airy vape, which I like, but can be closed off if you need something tighter, I put a shorter drip tip on it though to make it look more the same height as the KFL, as it has a bigger tank and base but smaller top. - Go on, get one - you know you want it, I'm going to order a couple more but want the ss ones as the only black mods I have are an eVic and a Nemmy, and they don't really have the power to handle this.:laugh:

I'll be honest Bob, at the moment I've got more toppers than mods. I really, really do like the look and the way it works, build quality looks excellent and I'm sure it's a brilliant performer - here comes the but :laugh: But, I can't really justify ordering just yet. Spent a bit too much on juice, FT order and the IPV2, so it will have to wait a while unfortunately :( I've got plenty of black mods though :laugh:

GreyHaze has it for £89.99 but only with one glass tank, no SS tank, 15 air control screws & 6 post screws in the spares

Cheers Bob :D

:) Still mulling over the size aspect - almost bought it earlier too. Then wondered about a stick/cylindrical type one that has USB charging and takes 18650- saw a couple of makes but not sure if they're OK.

Suppose they can't be that big to use, I've already been taken by the neatness of the iStick I think :)


It doesn't look too bad, just a little wider. The button being on the side it'll be different to hold compared to the MVP.
If you don't think any of the cylindrical ones are particularly good, I may still go with it! :laugh:

I'll be honest Trisha, if you really want the Hana, I'd say go with the one that has removable 18650 batteries - the one that I ordered. Get some decent 18650 batteries from a reputable UK source, or if you're happy ordering from FT - get the Sony VTC batteries like I have. FT also do some superb battery chargers, they do the Nitecore range. I think I paid about $30 for mine and believe me, it gets some serious use. It's just as easy to pop a battery out of the Hana and stick it in the charger. My Nitecore, will charge up 4 batts at once. I can pop 18650, 18350 and even 14500 batteries in all at the same time. It will automatically adjust the charge level for each size of battery. It has an LED system, so you know when their fully charged. When I use mine, I'll typically charge up around 6-10 batteries in a session, so the charger is easily running for over a day. You can get a 2 bay charger too the "Nitecore i2" - mine is the i4 version (4 bays) :)

I don`t think it is stress related ian, i am too chilled out for that. As i said in the past, it`s as soon as i get a cold start sneezing etc, it always seems to go to my stomach, like a tummy chill.

I will post a pic of my new peggies in a bit. :D

Was just a thought mate. I know if I get bad guts, it's normal stress related, or caused by a hot curry :laugh:

Well i couldn`t find a funny pic of anyone with a partial, but found THIS Comical :laugh:

That reminds me of the time my Dad dropped his false teeth on the floor and the dog picked them up and ran away with them :laugh: Was his own fault though, he was doing his "Alien" impression - you know the bit where the Alien pushes it's teeth right out in the film :laugh:

I've been rewicking up a storm today.

Tried a couple of spaced micro coils first, loaded up the lemon bar (from Terry) and Get Razzled. I wasn't really impressed. So not knowing whether it was the juice or the new coils - I ripped them apart again :( Both juices tasted really muted, like going back to a Nova on silica wick. I could taste the Raspberry and the Lemon, but nothing special at all.

Anyway, scrapped those 2 builds and decided to try something different again - I know glutton for punishment :laugh:

Been seeing a lot of talk about 3mm coils with rayon, so took some 26g kanthal and rewicked the RM2, 3 Kayfuns and 2 Russians. An absolute pain to get the coil legs trapped under the screws with 26g kanthal, but managed in the end.

Mixed some of the new MBV coffee that I got today with some of Terry's sweet cream. Did a 75% coffee/25% cream mix. Had about a quarter of bottle of Snickerdoodle left in the Reo, so I just added the coffee mix to that. Absolutely lovely. I reckon the coffee mix on it's own will be even better, but still an amazing vape.

Filled up the other toppers with Blue Moo, Grappler, Betelguese, LMP and the last of my DIY berry blast.

Using the thicker gauge wire and 3mm coils with rayon - WOW

Blue moo tastes creamier and bluer :laugh: Betelguese, even more complex and fruitier. LMP has taken on a new depth and Berry Blast seems like it's got 17 flavours in now, rather than 7 :laugh: The only let down is Grappler, I can taste the grape, but it's a real sort of fake candy and bubble gum flavour - not too impressed so far.

------------------------------------------------

Did all the coils at around the 1.0 - 1.2 ohm mark. 7 or 8 wraps, very tightly wound with the 26g kanthal. I've got more surface area with the coils, so there's more rayon in there - so far, I like them 100% better than my 2mm coils - huge improvement. Plus I think the coils will last longer before a dry burn, another bonus :thumbs:

Bloody hell mate, you have been busy :laugh: I suppose it makes sense that you would get a denser vape with a wider diameter coil, and i will probably do that next time i have to do some coiling, or get bored. :D How many wraps of 30 gauge would you say for around 1.2 ohms ian ? about 5 ?

Glad you're feeling better mate :)

It was my Dad's party trick. First time we watched the film, the end bit where Ripley thinks she's escaped the Aliens and one hides on the escape pod. It pops out of hiding and the teeth come right out at her face. I turned to my Dad and he'd pushed his gnashers right out of his mouth, nearly peed myself laughing. His other party trick was lighting farts :laugh: A man of high standards, my Dad was :laugh:

My 10 month old I2 has been acting wonky, not fully charging batteries, So I ordered the D2.
$20.67 NITECORE D2 2-Slot Digital Battery Charger w/ LCD Display Screen - US plug / compatible w/ Li-Ion / Ni-MH / Ni-Cd batteries
Which they also have with Euro Plug.
