The tiny little thing has an internal reservoir to refill and has replaceable coils. It looks really cute. Definately a starter unit and it's about $15, usb charges in an hr.

That sounds kind of like the fairly new Kanger TOPEVOD starter kit. Early last week I ordered 2 for a couple friends who finally want to try vaping. Many websites sell them, but descriptions of the size are all different, and some are actually wrong. It's really a total of 5 1/16" tall with the tank on top, and is 14mm in diameter (reg. eGo & Evod diameter). It's a 650mAh Evod battery and the tank is a 1.7mL, top fill, TopTank Evod (it's sooo cute)! Uses replaceable coils - same ones the PT & PT 2 & the Minis of both take. Got those 2 kits at Ecig.com since I had a small credit there I wanted to use, and the kits were only $11 each there.

When those came in the mail, I decided I loved the looks even better, especially the little tank on top. Got with friends & showed them how to use them, to change the coil, to refill eliquid, charge them, etc. Tried 1 of them with 1 of my drip tips on it. It has 3 airholes on the tank, and is alittle airy for me, but is still a nice vape! Told them a hole or 2 could be covered with a tiny piece of clear tape to tighten the draw a bit if they wanted to, or not.

I decided to order - a couple for me (great stealth vape size) and a few more to put away for other new vapers in the future. Had another credit, at MFS, who has them on Sale for $10.97 each. So...they're expected in this coming week!

you guys do it the hard way. imgur, upload, copy forum/bb code, paste

Will have to try that one. Tried photobucket the first time and I didn't care for it. Then I used tinypic and it was pretty easy. But I did think the pic turned out bigger than others I see on here.

I labelled the boxes but didn't make a list. Should I? That sounds like a lot of work. Do you tape the list to the box or use a number system?
I made a master list in word doc so I know my whole inventory, I did it so I could keep track of what I have and how many of each item. I just could not remember it all :) I have not numbered the boxes to the list but think I will do that so once it is stored all I need is a number to find a certain item.
Edit- thinking tanks will be T1, T2 etc according to tank type, Mods will be M1, M2 etc, at least that is my plan LOL

That is what I need! Perfect :)

We got ours months and months ago ... I'm surprised they don't list it on their webpage. I just sent an email to admin @ jwraps . com requesting it. I heard back promptly from Amanda that it would be no problem to make them.

It sounds cute too! They came out with several of these new user easy AIO's.

That is way to organized for me. All mine are just thrown in a box. When one gets empty I make a note and when 4 - 6 are empty I order...

I used that method for a long time. :) When it got to the point that it took me longer to find the flavors I wanted then to mix them I knew I had to do something different :eek: Ya, I got a lot of flavorings :lol:

I like a little bit of suspense in what I vape - never label the bottles that I mixed - just try to mix what I think will vape and taste good. I change up the PG/VG mix, the flavoring mix, etc. on a whim. After DIYing for over 4 years I got tired of all the logging and tracking - :confused:

I just want to mix something that will keep me happy and off of cigs... :)

FWIW - Jrwaps will make a 2x Radius holder too. You just have to ask them ahead of time, and put a note in with your order. No 'up' charge either, same price as those listed on their website. The Radius 'slot' also holds a Pico nicely.

I didn't know these existed.. thanks for the heads up. I'm definitely going to get one! Make good stocking stuffers at Christmas too for the vapors we know and love!

According to the Fasttech website, they are not complying with the new FDA regs to list accurate descriptions of the contents of our packages (marked as gifts with low value). I have 3 outstanding orders I'm waiting on from them.

What has been your experience since 8/8 on your packages getting hung up in Customs or being returned to Fasttech? Orders are from 8/10, 8/11, and 8/15. Only 1 has shipped so far but it is still in China as of 8/20.

Sorry, I didn't mean to write a book.:blush:

I was the same way at first! So I finally used a silver paint marker and numbered the tops of the lids, and made a list accordingly with the # and flavoring on it. Makes it really easy/fast to find the flavorings I want now.

Wow, I've got it easy. I vape one flavor- my DIY version of Intellicig's ECOPure, which only requires a bit of ethyl maltol. I'm glad at this point that other flavors didn't appeal to me. I already have enough (gear stock) to try and keep straight.

I need to do that with my flavors, they are in plastic boxes but I need to label them by type. Sounds like a good system you have!
i keep my flavors defined with dif color caps,, pink, blue,white, black , green etc. i know that all of the pink tend to make juice A and all of the white tend to make juice B,, all green are used in many recipes, and black is likely not used much.

I've enjoyed DIY from time to time, but settling on a simple mix that takes little time or thought has been my style for the last couple years. I make a 375ml batch, 2/3 PG, 1/3 VG, about 8.5% single flavoring and 8.5% 100mg nic. This allows me to basically put a 30ml bottle of flavoring, a 30ml bottle of nic, 125ml of 15% water thinned VG and 190ml of PG in a bottle, shake it up and start vaping. About 10 minutes and my wife and I have a month's worth of our all day vape. One benefit is that although my wife is just a basic happy vaper, I could document this simple mix so she can continue to make it and vape should something happen to me.

I'm sure we'll branch out again in the future and have the flavorings I need to give us lots of variety when we feel like it. In the meantime, we have gallons of all the mix components we need to vape every day for years.

    That eleaf Icare is also at Direct Vapor for 14.95 with free shipping. I am not sure I would like to go back to auto batteries, that would be an adjustment. I can see it working great for new vapers though.

    My 2 orders from FT went through customs a few days after 8/8 without any problems. I've got another that should hit customs in a few days.

    So far I've not read on ECF of any problems with our personal orders with FT making it through customs. I've only read so far of a cigar importer having a problem because the shipment didn't have the correct paperwork. Correct paperwork- no problem. Get caught without it and yes, it won't make it through customs.

    Very nice!! Enjoy. :)
    I sometimes tell people that I'm going fishing.................and I might even put bait on the hook. ;)

    I go more for the peace and quiet and relaxation than for the fish. Although, it is fun to catch them. :)
