Terry, what did you think of the pina-colada you kindly sent me ??

Maybe I should try it with a higher ohm coil, but it's tasting a bit chemically at the moment. Was fine when I first tried it yesterday. So I'm thinking I might need to up the resistance on the coil a little.

I thought that one was okay ian, i was using a 1.4 ohm build. It was the very berry which i found to be a bit chemical tasting.

I've sussed out the problem mate. The two coils I did yesterday were 0.9 and 1.4 ohms. Used the 0.9 ohm one with the coffee (bloody lovely) and the 1.4 ohm with the pina-colada. Just double checked the tank with the pina in it, the coil is now reading 0.8 ohms, so I must have knocked the tank and moved the coil. Probably explains why it's tasting a bit off :ohmy:

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

With all this talk of CV, I've just crumbled and ordered. I know I'm weak :laugh:

Went for 30ml of fluffy nuts, 30ml of QOP and10ml of green eyed monster (to try). I've asked them to go to maximum on the flavour percentages if possible :)

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

Think I might crumble even further and order again from MBV :laugh:

Name of a new juice there mate, ian`s crumble :lol:

So decided to treat yourself eh, I gotta say chefs do some really good flavours don`t they. :) If the pina doesn`t improve ian just bin it, as with any others i`ve sent you. It`s no big loss. :)

:laugh: Great idea for a new DIY juice mate :laugh:

Well, I really liked the fluffy nuts you sent me before and both you and Trisha seem to like the QOP - so they were obvious choices.

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

The pina-colada is actually back to how it was yesterday :laugh: Gave the tank a flick and the coil is back at 1.4 ohms, tastes a lot better again :laugh: Can't be bothered ripping it down, so I'll just keep flicking it :ohmy:

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

Just ordered from MBV again :

Afternoon delight.
Moo juice.
Sticky bun.

All in 15ml size with 4 flavour shots.

Honey berries.
Coffee.

Both in 30ml size with 4 flavour shots :)

Some interesting ones there ian, If you like a really strong strawberry vape you will love the moo juice. I got 30 ml with just 2 shots and it is a really rich vape, and i mean rich. :laugh:

Looking forward to your reviews ian. :) And you got some coffee too, 18 mg ?

Hi Bob it's Adam not Andy :laugh: Sorry my username doesn't indicate this! Made me laugh actually because people are always calling me Andy by mistake.

I'll just wait and see if any squape r clones are confirmed to have o-rings and get good reviews. I'm optimistic about this one though: $24.70 SQ-uape Reloaded Style Rebuildable Tank Atomizer - 5.2ml / stainless steel + glass tank / 22mm diameter at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

$299 for vapor flask dna40 is too much for me. If the temperature control turns out to be as good as it sounds then I'd consider getting something like a vaporshark rdna 30 if they do one with a dna40. They look really good. Don't like the look of many box mods like the hana modz ones.

Considering getting a sigelei 100w if they sort out the copper pin issue that several reviewers have mentioned in future releases. Don't see the point in going over 100W personally at the moment though. There are 150W and even 250W devices on the horizon, seems a bit much.

Comparing these newer high power box mods to the builds I've done in my plume veil clone (~0.2ohms), on a mechanical, might get upto 80/90 wattsl BUT I haven't ever measured voltage drop so presumably they are actually a bit lower than that in practice. And those are too hot and dense for sustained vaping. I like to dig it out every few days to blow some big flavoursome clouds but generally prefer more around 0.4-0.6ohm builds which would be max 50W. The 0.2 ohm builds also go through juice in a click of the fingers and spit juice in your mouth a bit more I find.

I fired one the other day with the top cap off and the rayon was apparently too dry and caught fire. That was a bit alarming.

Just spotted a limited number of VTC5s were in stock on fasttech but by the time I got to checkout they were gone! drat.

I've come across Torchy before and would happily buy batteries from him with all the positive comments. Had a look on his ebay that you kindly linked the other day actually but the best I could see were the purple efest 2100 mah 30A ones that are meant to be rewrapped VTC4s.

Thanks for the advice re: him being on UKV and giving discount/advice. I'll try that out sometime probably.

Woah long post.

Sorry Adam, knew it began with an A but I'm terrible with names :laugh:

In no specific order:
I wouldn't buy loose batteries from FT - don't trust them on those
Rayon is similar to cotton and yes will burn up in flames if you try to dry burn it
The lowest build I have is 0.3ohm 22g Kanthal built round a 3.5mm bar and rayon in a Caterpillar dripper on my SX350 dual parallel 18650 box mod made by Bish on UKV (think I put a picture up a while back, blue mod), but the most I go up to is 20w anything higher gets a bit too hot for me, I prefer a cooler vape, don't think I'll bother with anything higher than 50w for a mod, to be honest 30w is quite enough, but the DNA40 temp control is tempting (prefer the SX350 to the DNA30, I have 2 of each)

A cheap fairly good 30w one if you don't like boxes is the Kangside30

I've seen some great reviews on moo juice, so that's the reason for ordering.

The coffee you sent me (with the cream added) is lovely. Yep all in 18mg mate, with 4 flavour shots.

Right, definitely going now :laugh:

Night Terry.

Way too much to mention right now trish, but mainly sightings of UFO`s above the oceans, and under the oceans.
Talking of politicians covering things up, you would have thought that they would have disguised william hague a bit better wouldn`t you. :laugh:
Ah, Warminster and all that! ...I try not to think too hard about such things ...got enough earthbound stuff to keep us all occupied for way into the future!

You must be their favourite customer!
They have quite a bit that I like and can use fairly easily. I appreciate that they make anything in max VG for me and at any strength I ask for. Two of theirs are in use every day, plus the ABC & Confusion too because they have two of the NT ones mixed in with them. Started buying the Mint Choc Vapetto, Posset, Confusion & ABC 100ml at a time, and others 50ml, 30ml for newer ones.
From the lesser stuff I've had from other places, CV stand out for quality & service.
I'd probably use more of the NT ones if they all had a max VG option. It's a good style he uses and a lot of them intermix really well for interesting 'extra' flavours.

I have a sneaking suspicion from their press release that one release of the MVP3 will have a DNA 40 temperature control board. :matrix:
Overkill for me! :laugh:

Don't think I have, but agree with the last comment about covering things up, but the always say it is for the sake of security.
"At no time was any member of the public at risk" :laugh:


'twas the online form I used
Did you hear from them yet?

Suppose it takes a while to make them, then batch them up for all the different countries that are clamouring for them, think they are expected at the end of the month.
Most sites were quoting Oct 11th -14th, so that's been n gone.

Ohh, you love us really trish :laugh:
I'm admittin nuttin ....:rolleyes:
I ordered some of the lemon coconut cream cake earlier from chefs, just got a 10 ml sampler but it does sound like a nice one.
Yes, it does! The vanilla custard doughnut sounds like something I'll like too! ...and, the order for both is despatched already! :)

Let me know how you get on with the coils Trisha, once you're using them full time :)
I will! Still not got to them yet. Been one of those days that seem full of 'stuff' yet nothing gets done!

This will sound pretty bad, but I forgot how old I was the other day. Someone asked me how old I'd be on my next birthday and I couldn't remember :laugh:
Oh, I haven't forgotten how old I am ..except the year I was 55 ...thought I was 56 all year, so in effect, I lost a year! :laugh:
At least I'm not like my husband ..he's one of those that add a year on ...except, he was 70 for around 5 years before the actual event! :lol:

We need to find intelligent life on this planet, before we start looking elsewhere :p:laugh:
How much time you got? :facepalm:

Think you'll like the QOP! :) Drat - could have sent you a small bottle of GEM ....gives me problems.

Saw a good notion for a flavour today - someone talking about an ice cream flavour they like: Chocolate vanilla cream fudge with nuts! :)

Think I might crumble even further and order again from MBV :laugh:
I must get some of the coffee and the cream soon! :)

Think I mentioned that I've been putting 15-20% of NT Strawnilla in with CV's Strawberry Vapetto - lovely! and doesn't give me too much trouble as some strawberry ones do!

Trisha, here is the response from Lew about Confusion:
"Yes, we will make it for previous customers. Just place an order for another eliquid and put a note on your order saying which one you want to swap for confusion."
Oddly enough, that was the only way I could think of to do it! :)

So nice to know we can still get it - it's the best crème brulee type that I've had for how I use it :)
I'd even buy it as a concentrate and dilute it with some VG made to 0.3 or zero nicotine.

I'm the youngster as well, she's 18 months older than I am, but looks and acts 10 years older :oops:

It's the other way around here. She says I act older than her. Well one of us has to be a responsible adult :laugh:

Same here with the moo ian, but it is really strong on the strawberry :D

After blackcurrant, strawberry was my second ever DIY mix. I love strong strawberry, you know me mate, I don't do subtle :laugh:

I will! Still not got to them yet. Been one of those days that seem full of 'stuff' yet nothing gets done!

The Wife has those sort of days all the time - usually when I ask her to do a job for me. Been waiting 3 months for her to stitch a new zip in one of my jackets :laugh:

No problem Trisha. I've ordered the GEM in 18mg now. Was dispatched today, so it should be here soon :D

That sounds like a gorgeous flavour. If anyone starts making it, please let me know ;)

You been keeping secrets from me then Terry :laugh: Hope you've got it set at maximum power with the rayon :D

I'm just waiting for a box mod to come out, that has a shape that I really like. Problem is, I don't know what shape I would like :facepalm: Maybe one shaped like a banana :laugh:
