Another new one? they just had a new one! I thought the coil looked a little bit dumpier or wider?
..I did also see that they're bringing out an adapter of some sort to make a BDC tank take a BVC. I saw where someone tested it.

I get a tad fed up of stuff coming out here and then something else appearing within a couple of weeks!

That's the great thing about rebuilding coils, you always know the coil head will be the same size after you've rebuilt it :)

The Stingray mods do need the switches cleaning up a bit when you first get them Adam. Just take them apart, give them a good clean, put back together and their generally fine.

If you fancy a really good telescopic mod, with an easy to use locking ring and it's one of the shortest tube mods out there, have a look at the Astro clones on FT. I've got a few of them - cracking mod, very comfortable to use.

Cheers. I like the look of them actually, shame there isn't a version with some copper. Think I've decided it'll be the stingray X although I'm not going to order it just yet.

I've got the black stingray that has a copper logo, got mine off ebay, but I'm pretty sure FT has them too. In fact, it's very similar to this set Adam :

Yeah cheers Ian, i`m in no massive rush though. :)

Well you know me Terry, it takes me as long as FT to post stuff out :laugh:

Of the juices you kindly sent me, the blood orange is my favourite, blue moo second and the apple pie third :)

Most of my Kayfuns do gurgle and pop a bit now, but to be honest that's more due to using Rayon as a wick and running high watts.

If you need any other Vmod related items Bob, they've got a huge sale on now. I know I said I wasn't going to order anything, but I'm easily led :laugh: Just picked up a Vmod XL and 4 of the AMG attys - including postage charge, just over $80. It normally costs more than that just for the Vmod on it's own before postage :D

Just received some today - only took 4 days

Does sound nice and easy to service Bob. Having said that, my coils are always perfect, so I never need to fiddle with them :p:laugh:

Seriously though, it does sound similar to the Taifun in that respect. Glad you're liking it though mate.

That's why they say it's a cross between a Taifun and Kayfun, in fact I've been vaping it a lot more today, the tank is nearly empty, the juice I'm using tasted worse in a clearo, but a lot better in this. The KFL coil that went last night had popped at the positive end, and was the premade one that came with it, probably nichrome, which doesn't last as long as Kanthal, but it lasted about a week or more.

I don't know if I can spare any Terry - I've only got about 493 feet left now :p:laugh:

Hahaha - I haven't really got round to using any of my paltry 14 feet yet, still got a wee bit of NatureVape cotton left, although I do think I did one of my drippers with a little bit just to try out

Another new one? they just had a new one! I thought the coil looked a little bit dumpier or wider?
..I did also see that they're bringing out an adapter of some sort to make a BDC tank take a BVC. I saw where someone tested it.

I get a tad fed up of stuff coming out here and then something else appearing within a couple of weeks!

Think I mentioned it a couple of weeks back that a new one was coming out, it is similar to the normal BDC that we looked at the day before yesterday on that saferxxxx site that I had trouble posting, and will be the vertical coil version for the older Aspires, and anything else that took the older BDC, as well as that K1 that you linked to, not to be confused with the Nautilus BDC/BVC versions which are taller and thinner and more open at the top.

It is trish, but well worth it. :laugh:
...I believe you :rolleyes: :laugh:

Not heard of the Vape Kitchen, but it's always good to have options for the future.
It's VG, but apparently some of it's pretty good. The other one was Highbrow, and that has various PG/VG options. The cheesecake with extra flavour and a touch of blueberry is apparently very nice ...the NT cheesecake is only in PG/VG.

You'd better stay off here for a while then Trisha and get some serious painting done :p:laugh:
Most of my problem is having too many people or possibilities of interruptions during the afternoon! Time was I'd be eating my lunch and reading email then right on with work until late afternoon and then back to it early evening. Now it seems I'm trying to get work done in ever smaller blocks of time. The evening is the only time I know I can get some peaceful time. ...I do need a little diversion now and then though! ;)

The instructor we had isn't too bad, he did have a laugh with us - he's an ex bus driver, so he laughed along most of the time :laugh:
Ah - not so bad then! :)

You're coils are right at the top of my to do list now. I'll be slowing down on the overtime now, car insurance is almost sorted, so I'll have a bit more spare time soon :D
Great! Thanks Ian - be interesting to see what the difference is like! I still have a fair bit of use with the single coil tanks. My Unitanks are laid idle though because they leak ..hopefully, they'll work with something better!

That's the great thing about rebuilding coils, you always know the coil head will be the same size after you've rebuilt it :)
I'd still get in a mess with em! You haven't seen me with a needle & thread and a button! :facepalm: ...there has to be two pieces of plaster and a washing machine involved!

I've just had a rather large triple chocolate cookie (Tesco) with a cup of tea followed by Got Cookie Oreo/ABC mixed ....Chocolate overload :D

Well trisha and i won`t argue with that :evil: :laugh: Like me, you are not too keen on the other two mate ??

My posting skills are like the buses I drive - always late :laugh: The other two taste better mixed together, but to be honest, I'd give them a 6/10 on their own. The blood orange and blue moo get a 9/10 :D

Just couldn't say no to the sale price Bob :D The way I use the Vmods at work, can't see them lasting for more than 12 months. But for the amount of use they get, it's definitely worth it.

Kanthal does seem to stand up better to continued use.

14 feet, you should still have enough for the next few years :laugh:

I've just had a rather large triple chocolate cookie (Tesco) with a cup of tea followed by Got Cookie Oreo/ABC mixed ....Chocolate overload :D

I've tried mixing my own cheesecake previously. the best one I did was a strawberry New York cheesecake, but probably not as good as the NT version. Mine ended up being too light on the strawberry and too heavy on the biscuit base - still a nice enough vape though.

I'm the same when I'm working at home, I don't like being disturbed. But for me it's normally when doing some DIY - I can guarantee my mobile will ring just as I'm doing an oil change on the car and my hands are full of oil :laugh:

Just underlined "Trisha's coils" on my list and put stars next to it :laugh: Rayon doesn't seem to leak as much as cotton or silica, it seems to hold the juice better.

I can't sew either, that's what the Wife is for :ohmy::laugh: Those triple choc cookies are lovely - all cookies should have as much chocolate as possible - it should be made a law :laugh:

No room for me to talk ...took me weeks to get them sent :unsure:

Ugghh ....somehow, they all seem to blur together! Perhaps unravel it all when I have a clearer head! ;) I'll stick with what I have ..must have 12 unused/unopened ones anyway!

Agreed on all those points, I find the VMods very good for when i pop out round the shops and days out, only have to carry an extra battery JIC

Probably a good idea, all the new things are a pain to remember which is which and what goes on what.

I'd better pop off now.

On late duties the next 2 days, so at least I'll get a lie-in. Downside is, I'll be leaving Manchester centre about 11pm on a Friday night, bus load of sober people - I can't see it somehow :laugh:

Night all.

Night Ian, oh how I loved those type of turns - NOT

As you'll know, the NT cheesecake is separate to the three topping flavours. The Highbrow version is one a couple of them have tried that need the VG and apparently it's quite good. Seems they have a good coffee too!
I have the three topping flavours because 15-20% mixed in with something is what's advised. The cherry doesn't seem to have much flavour so far, but the raspberry and strawberry are very good. Definitely the best raspberry I've tried.

I'm the same when I'm working at home, I don't like being disturbed. But for me it's normally when doing some DIY - I can guarantee my mobile will ring just as I'm doing an oil change on the car and my hands are full of oil :laugh:
It's hard getting people to understand that interruptions can destroy half a day for work. The hardest parts can be the thought process to put even a small painting together in a way that 'reads' correctly. Then, it can take an hour to get back into the flow each day, and the longer I can work at a stretch, the better. Little slices of time just end up with me dabbing bits of paint here and there and getting nowhere. I'm doing a tall Georgian champagne glass, bowl of strawberries and a silver cream jug ..only 14x12, but it's taking me far too long! Almost there though with this one. First time I've painted champagne ...looks OK though - amazingly!
No matter what it is you're doing, you need the peace and space to get on with it in order to do it properly.

Just underlined "Trisha's coils" on my list and put stars next to it :laugh: Rayon doesn't seem to leak as much as cotton or silica, it seems to hold the juice better.
Oh, I got little stars! :rolleyes: :)
I remember you telling me it would help stop leaking, and that's got to be good! I absolutely hate leaks and gurgles!

I can't sew either, that's what the Wife is for :ohmy::laugh: Those triple choc cookies are lovely - all cookies should have as much chocolate as possible - it should be made a law :laugh:
Oh dear! Wives aint for sewing buttons on! Shame on you if I thought for one minute you meant that :lol:
My husband can sew buttons on ..and my Dad could actually make clothes! Wouldn't think that was an ex Sgt Major and Civil Servant! - Our eldest can sew too ...he has one of those computerised sewing machine things. He took my Diesel jeans up for me and actually made some uniform number badges using metallic thread ...he's definitely a chip off the old block as far as my Dad is concerned.
We once had under floor air gas central heating ...wanted radiators, so my Dad got a book out of the library, read it and installed a radiator system in our house! That's the kind of chap he was, and our eldest takes after him.

I love those triple chocolate cookies! They were still warm when the groceries were delivered too! Could eat
one of those every night for supper! :laugh:

I'm practical in other ways - especially painting ;)

My 3rd order should arrive tomorrow, so i will try some of the sweet cream ( when steeped ) with the coffee. I have also got some more coffee coming, so when it arrives i will send you a bit of both to try.

I have gone for double shots as well, though i don`t reckon it will be needed.:)
