I have only ever had one juice behave like you suggest, and it was the blue moo from MB. It wasn`t that old, a few weeks maybe, but it went in the bin. All my other juices inc chefs seem to last for weeks. Maybe a bad batch, don`t know myself !
Yes, mine usually last very well - that's why I buy my three favourites in 100ml bottles!
I'll see how it is in an Evod tomorrow.
No good putting it in a MOW tank because those Kanger V2 coils will only last a few hours with Mint Choc Vapetto!
I just threw two leaky PT2's out last week!

Well i hope it`s ok trish, 100ml is quite a bit to be chucking out :( I am the same now regarding any crappy tanks, and most if not all have been binned. I never ever got on with the PT`s, even building my own coils for them they would always leak.

Yes, I'm hoping it's not the liquid - if it is though, I'll have to ask Chefs if anything has been changed recently.

When I first got a Unitank, and later a MP2, both were great, so I ordered a couple more, and then more - ended up at separate times with 6 of each, and when the first ones started leaking and spitting etc., I'd get a new one and within days, they started acting up too. Had the same with the 30S also months ago, and the MT3S just recently. I even got the Aspire K1 ..and that was terrible from the first try!
So, when the mini Nautilus and both sizes of the Mow ones were good, I've stayed with those and also a few Evods.

Used that 1ml Eleaf GS16S on and off the past two days and it seems very good so far - they're putting the correct GS16 in the post tomorrow for me.
Unusual coils in that they push in.

I've been using my 30W iStick a fair bit now, and two things I've noticed: it needs charging more often than the 20W ones!
Also, it tends to get fairly hot if I'm using it for quite a while - I never noticed any of the 20W ones getting hot.
I have it at around 5.5 - 6W with a 1.8ohm coil in it, so no excess wattage!

Also, I thought my Mint Choc Vapetto had been changed in some way these past few days - twice I've had a bitter, peppery taste as though it was old & high nicotine stuff ...almost like the nicotine had settled in the bottom of the bottle - but my new bottle was the same. I think it's been poor quality BVC coils from FT!
I'd just got some from MyEPack and see they're the new ones with larger holes in them - taste is OK now thank goodness! I'm just hoping it stays that way.

I took mine off charge about 9 pm Saturday and I've got a third of the battery left this morning ,I'm running it at 11-12.5W.I don't need to go no higher. I thought I would try the nautilus on there yesterday, it went on sweet as a nut. The last pack of bvc coils I bought (for the smaller tanks) from my epack was rubbish 4 out of 5 flooded within a few hours.I do need some more of the bigger bvc coils, I found a pack for £9.99 with free postage but I don't know if they have the larger holes

It's a smallish difference, and if I hadn't read about it, I may not have noticed. You can see both side by side here:
http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...us-mini-bvc-w-larger-wicking-holes-stock.html
The chocolate one tastes OK again this morning ...I find it odd. Almost as though once it's been hot on and off for a few hours, it starts to taste bitter. The chocolate is one of my every day ones, and usually the only time it tastes a bit off is when the coil need replacing around 5-6 days.

Yes i remember him saying.

Trish do you have any tanks that take the Aspire bvc,not nautilus?
Yes, I have an ET-S but haven't tried it yet.

Was it one of you that asked about the MOW from FT? ..if so, the one I got works fine ..thread didn't feel perfectly smooth at first, but fine now. The coil in it was a bad one though!

What I'll do is try this ET-S first to see if it works OK - it has a coil in it and I got a pack of 5 new ones. If it does work OK, I'd be pleased to have the ones you have left! Thanks :)
I'll try it and see!

Chefs Vapour was down for 'maintenance/updates' this morning, and I now find that the search function is missing - it was on the top right above the black bar for different sections.
Not sure if they moved it but I can't see it anywhere else!

Anyone got an idea who sells the DNA 40 chip ? I wouldn`t mind having a go at modding my Hana. :)

No clone chips out yet mate from what I can gather. You will need bloody good eyesight (or a decent magnifier) and a small pointed tip soldering iron to do the job though. Not trying to put you off or anything :laugh:

I was surprised ..I'd have expected them to run cooler if anything!
As you say, the 20W works fine! May not be perfect in accuracy of the read-out, but they suit me OK!

I wonder if it's due to the way it fires Trisha. Rather than pulses of power like the 20 watt, the 30 and 50 watt deliver more of a continuous power delivery. I've noticed that the batteries in my Provari don't last anywhere near as long as they do in my Vamo. That's just a guess though :)

I'll bet! Nice project to work on.

The house was stunning once it was finished. I got to do the initial destruction mainly - always the best part :laugh:

True, but it's such a pain trying to source these things and verify the information or ingredients. All gets a bit tiresome and very time consuming ...I've had days when I've woken up with it all running through my mind - the whole thing about finding PG free ones was a 'light bulb' thing that happened one morning just as I was waking up!

Some of the greatest inventions in history were probably due to those light bulb moments :D

By gad, he's got it! :laugh:

I do get there eventually :laugh:

Some builders are encouraged to leave one end of a house blank to avoid windows from one house looking into the windows of the house next door.

Wouldn't surprise me. My neighbour's house would have the window in exactly the same position, if we had them. Can you imagine the look of surprise when I come downstairs naked, first thing in the morning :evil::laugh:

My iStick 50 watt has now been shipped :)

No sign of the VF that I ordered last night moving yet. I couldn't use the 5% discount code, so I had to pay full price :ohmy:

============

Picked up all the necessary painting stuff today. So tomorrow the hard work will begin in earnest.

How much was that istick mate? Off 40 thieves wasn't it?

I'm half hoping my cloupor mini melts so I can get a refund and have an excuse to buy one. Although so far so good with the mini, just haven't been leaving it unattended with the battery in.

Certainly was mate. Can't post a link on here, but if you do a search on there for "Health smoke e-cigs co" it should bring it up.

Cost me $42.34 for the mod. Don't really need the full kit with a charger, USB and ego connector for an extra $6.

Maybe accidentally drop the Cloupor on the gas hob, problem solved :laugh:

Ah! I wonder - hadn't thought about that.
We'll have to see how your 50 behaves! ;)

That's £1 more than I paid for the iStick 30w

Just want to say good luck to bob for tomorrow, as he is going into hospital for any one who doesn`t know or has forgot. Good luck with your operation mate, hope it all goes smoothly, and you have a speedy recovery. :)

Nah, Friday 13th Terry, only got back from Antwerp last night, and have been trying to catch up with all the gossip, see you have managed to get the VF working with TC, I thought I told you to copy those reset instructions, knew you would probably need them :laugh:

Have you tried the MCV on something else Trish, told you not to get the 30w iStick as it still had the same problems as the 20w, and you are probably vaping at twice what you think you are.

If it ain't gone Boom then leave the bleedin' battery in it :lol: I've only taken mine out when it needs charging

Hi Bob - hope you had a good weekend! :)

I haven't yet - it behaved yesterday ...tasted OK, but I do think it already needs a new coil after only 2-3 days (it's usually 5-6). I may try it in an Evod.

I wasn't sure if the 30W was the same or not - still not sure because it seems to operate differently in that it drains faster, and when the battery is half way depleted, it starts getting hot if I use it for more than just a few minutes.
Whatever, I see no advantage certainly, so may just use it for something I only use now and then!
