I bought the posh custard one as well.Never tried a custard juice before.The throat hit is like smoking a woodbine or a capstan full strength.Thats 6mg nic,think I'll leave that one to steep for a few weeks or years

oh-oh! I got that one too ...it had a smell of doused bonfire ash!
The strawberry one smells nice ....

Isn't diamond mist one of those brands you can get in pound shops?

Adam I received two bottles of toonz today.First impression was it smells like RA but doesn't look like it more like a dehydrated urine colour.I filled as Gs Air tank up with it and it's delicious a bit more anniseed than RA.But it's a real good juice.So good in fact, order a bottle and if you don't like I'll give you your money back.Thats a win win situation butty

I got one of the #-- range of Grizzly a while back and binned it.
I've had a few good strawberry ones lately: Avant Garde Strawberries & Cream, and the Succulent Strawberry is nice too, Vape Kitchen Strawberry Milk Candy, Cloudwerks Uncle Phil.

Avant Garde is at their own website, Refreshing Vapours, & UK Ecigs. Refreshing Vapours has the most stock showing at the moment as Avant are still steeping some out of stock ones!

Vape Kitchen and Cloudwerks are at Vanilla Vapes.

I've also been a long time user of the Chefs Strawberry Vapetto and Nicoticket Strawnilla (Strawnilla can be bought at Spiritus and Vaperama) - both can steep a long time without losing any flavour ..in fact strawnilla gets better like a good custard one does! I'm currently using some Strawnilla made in late summer last year and it's good - mixed it 20% with 80% of the Strawberries & Cream Avant Garde VG version one.
I used some Chefs Strawberry Vapetto last week mixed with the Strawnilla and it was very good (Nicoticket ones are a PG/VG liquid that I can't use alone - strong enough flavours to dilute like that very well)

Having said all that, the Carpe Diem Strawberry one at Zapp could be good! Then there's S. Bunny Mothers Milk - that's nice too!

I watched half of that george, and how do you think they would manage to implement a ban on open tanks ? I know they could stop selling them, but what about the millions of people, just like us who own them.

They can sod off as far as i`m concerned, mine ain`t going anywhere ! And what do they plan on doing when we use them outside our homes ? confiscate them ? Arrest us ? Bollox to `em

Well said Terry. A lot of doom and gloom in that vid. I know he was only stating the worst case scenario though.

I reckon you should stand in the next election mate, you can be the voice of us vapers

I posted yesterday about it George ! Lets put it this way, i ordered 100ml from charlies last night, and didn`t even bother visiting grants today

Would you say it's your favourite custard mate ??

Hey Tel,don't shoot the messenger.
I'm like you,"From my cold dead hand"
But it's best to be aware what our politicians are proposing on doing.They could never police such a ban but it shows how their minds are working.

A few years back, a lot of shipments coming into the USA were confiscated at Customs for some idiotic reason. The case was challenged in the High Court and was overturned. I'm pretty sure, it would be the same situation here if they tried to ban open tank systems.

I do feel sorry for newer vapers though, if they watch a vid like that it's probably enough to send them straight back to cigs

I've only tried the quacks 'thru an Atlantis.And i was quite surprised i got thru' 30ml on one coil,with it being 100%vg i thought it may clog it up.
Very mild flavour,but i think it's nice in it's own right.I've got another 45ml here.So i'm going to put that thru' the subtank mini see how it compares to the Atlantis for flavour.It's bloody smooth in 6mg mate,makes for a nice change sometimes.

I'm running the Ducks Breath through the Subtank at the moment George. Almost finished my first tank now. On the 0.5 ohm coil, the flavour is superb mate. Leaves that lovely aftertaste for at least a couple of minutes after I finish vaping it

I don't like the sound of it either, and it's one of the reasons I got down to a mix of 6 and 3mg as quickly as I could. I also have a fair bit of zero liquid too. I'm thinking I should start seriously cutting back to all 3mg if I can. I'd hate to start smoking again!

One thing that struck me in that video is, considering what I said to Ian regarding the government and the tobacco companies being in cahoots and planning any which way they can to claw back the cash they're losing, he's actually threatening to do exactly what they'll want him and everyone like him to do: start buying cigarettes again!

I'd think that whatever legislation and bans they may (or may not) wish to impose, it'll take some time to actually do it.
I wonder if the B&M's will have a case for compensation regarding their livelihood being swiped from under their feet if it really did get that bad.

It's the first I've heard about the potential ban of refillable tanks and VV/VW mods, but I don't discount the possibility. There's a reason I have a dozen tanks sat in their boxes alongside half a dozen 20W iSticks. The liquid is another matter - I know I can freeze VG, not sure about nicotine or flavouring. Still, plenty of time to explore that if necessary.

I'd be interested to see a complete list of which Politicians have had donations from Tobacco companies. Also which areas of Big Pharma have been "sponsored" by Tobacco companies. This would tell us all we need to know about the motives behind any moves to ban/restrict vaping gear or liquid.

You can freeze liquid Trisha, not sure how long it keeps for though. But it's got to be at least 3 years. Normal shelf life of liquid is 12 months or more, so over 3 years should be possible with freezing. Might be an idea to use darker glass bottles for freezing though and take over a full shelf in the freezer

I' d hate to be the spin merchant who has to explain why any bans are placed on vaping consumables, without a credible unfavourable scientific study, whilst still selling cigarettes which have been proven to kill millions and cost billions to treat the effects worldwide
If anything I can see this as a sort of double bluff where the government threatens to ban vaping to make vapers more affable to taxation as an alternative
The electronic cigarette industry must look like a big fat cash cow to HM Customs and Revenue, and fits the demographic of smokers, drinkers and motorists who are the traditionally exploited

It's all about the money mate, always is.

Just a good thing, these lovely Chinese companies sell direct to the public

Did a nickle build in a Lemo today ! 10 wraps @ 3mm, and it is reading .27 ohms. I dunno why it has come in higher than my last build, which was exactly the same and read .16 ??

It is vaping really well though, with no TP kicking in, which i had a lot of when using my dripper, maybe it`s because the wicks are permanently saturated in the Lemo !
Anyhoo, when i looked inside my trident, i noticed the posts were all discoloured, like the plating had come off, so that has now gone in the bin `Didn`t use it much anyway` so no loss there

Similar to the build in my Lemo mate.

What sort of wattage and temp are you using mate ??

I keep saying I'm after more juices of a 'dehydrated urine' colour!

Haha, well you've tempted me there mate as I've been on vape inc and they have the concentrate for £2.50 and free delivery. I'll have a wee think about it.

 

[trouble1000]

Couldn't post yesterday. Kept getting logged out for some reason, so gave up trying after a while

So I had to break the rules. Got my CV juices yesterday, stashed away in the vape cupboard for a week or two

They should call it the "Bear Grylls" juice Adam. He seems to enjoy a nice urine juice

 

[Bobw1951]

They have quite a few of the chefs don`t they I`ve got enough custard to last me a fair bit now, so i will pass this time. Noticed they only do it in 3 and 6 mg as well
But the bryces custard, which is also supposed to be very good, you can get in 12mg.

Probably because they are both in Cardiff

Well Marcus best put aside £2.12 (15% off code) as I ordered the toonz concentrate so we'll see what it's like.

Just trying Quacks Gizzard thru' the Atlantis at the moment,new coil so i'll have to give it half a tank or so to give a real opinion.
But first impressions,i'm finding it a bit lacking.Maybe another of those that you find smell better than it tastes.

I'll put some GJ in the subtank this avvy and give it a bash.


Anyone running short of ... cotton,there's a good deal here,bear in mind it's sent from Japan,so a bit of a wait.Just can't understand how these far east companies make money.Postage must cost them buttons.

I'm confident that you'll like it.If not I'll set up a direct debit to pay 53p a week.How much do you pay for the RA concentrate.

Think it's 3.60 from chefs vapour. Their delivery isn't bad usually 1 or 2 quid. They have a 10% off code usually as well.

I'll second that motion!

A few years back, a lot of shipments coming into the USA were confiscated at Customs for some idiotic reason. The case was challenged in the High Court and was overturned. I'm pretty sure, it would be the same situation here if they tried to ban open tank systems.

Looks as though something similar has been happening according to that reply I got from Vaperev when I tried to order the POET liquids - they'd only recently stopped shipping to the UK because of confiscated/destroyed, or returned shipments marked 'not allowed'!

I do feel sorry for newer vapers though, if they watch a vid like that it's probably enough to send them straight back to cigs

He twice said he'd do that very thing - just what the tobacco companies -and government would prefer (but never admit).

I'd be interested to see a complete list of which Politicians have had donations from Tobacco companies. Also which areas of Big Pharma have been "sponsored" by Tobacco companies. This would tell us all we need to know about the motives behind any moves to ban/restrict vaping gear or liquid.

We need a good investigative journalist on our side ..they seem able to find these things out!
There must be a vape dependent one!

Normal shelf life of liquid is 12 months or more, so over 3 years should be possible with freezing. Might be an idea to use darker glass bottles for freezing though and take over a full shelf in the freezer

You mean base liquid or ready to use? I've noticed a lot of companies going over to dark glass bottles anyway! A lot of flavouring has use by 1 year on the label. (some 6 months) so freezing would be necessary for the electronic biased liquids rather than food flavouring.

Just a good thing, these lovely Chinese companies sell direct to the public

It is - but the government must know!

Couldn't post yesterday. Kept getting logged out for some reason, so gave up trying after a while

This morning I had a notice to change my password as they apparently do that for security reasons every now and then ..so I did. Can't say I've seen that before!

So I had to break the rules. Got my CV juices yesterday, stashed away in the vape cupboard for a week or two

Unavoidable circumstances - always excused. I usually can use mine from CV in around 5-8 days. Doughnut took a week first time, but I always re-order my favourites now when down to around 30ml.
I see they just got a new stock of 100ml TFA flavouring. Good price for anyone using it frequently.

Probably because they are both in Cardiff

Yes ...Chefs don't sell over the counter though, so makes sense to have a B&M stockist nearby I suppose - on the shelf advertising.

Yes it`s the best custard i have had to date Ian, well worth a try

ATM i have the flask set at 440 degrees, and 16.5 watts, Gets a bit hot any higher than that

Honestly mate the Ducks Breath tastes great in a Subtank, I've not tried an Atlantis so can't really compare the two.

I do like a really strong flavour though, so it surprised me that the stock coil was so good in the Subtank. Let us know how you get on mate.

I'll second that motion!

Well that's 2 votes for Terry as Prime Minister, you're getting there Terry

Looks as though something similar has been happening according to that reply I got from Vaperev when I tried to order the POET liquids - they'd only recently stopped shipping to the UK because of confiscated/destroyed, or returned shipments marked 'not allowed'!

That's a big shame if it's going to cause problems with all juice deliveries from outside the EU

We need a good investigative journalist on our side ..they seem able to find these things out!
There must be a vape dependent one!

I'm pretty sure one will turn up if regulation gets closer. A bit of corruption always sells papers.

You mean base liquid or ready to use? I've noticed a lot of companies going over to dark glass bottles anyway! A lot of flavouring has use by 1 year on the label. (some 6 months) so freezing would be necessary for the electronic biased liquids rather than food flavouring.

I know nicotine base liquid can be frozen and pre-mixed juice can too. There's one guy on here that has frozen some nicotine base for 4 years. He tested it and the nicotine level had only dropped marginally, so it was still good to use.

It is - but the government must know!

True, but it's hard to police the number of packages that come in.

This morning I had a notice to change my password as they apparently do that for security reasons every now and then ..so I did. Can't say I've seen that before!

I've has it happen once before. I just re-used my original password, it accepted it

Unavoidable circumstances - always excused. I usually can use mine from CV in around 5-8 days. Doughnut took a week first time, but I always re-order my favourites now when down to around 30ml.

It was an act of the Internet Gods

I guess it's just habit for me, letting stuff steep a couple of weeks. I even do it with pre-steeped USA juices

 

[trouble1000]

Off for a nice family meal later, so I'm looking forward to that.

We've not had a proper get together since Christmas. It will be a good chance to catch up
