Gawd knows Trish, all i know is that i posted them on the 17th, so in their system for nearly 12 bloody days

That's the worst part of it! We've been waiting & watching for it to arrive all this time for the sake of 11p! Then charge an xtra £1 for 'housing' it
They seem to have conveniently lost sight of the fact that it's not their property!
Never mind Terry - they'se bigger than us!

They've changed the planner on the Sky Box, the oldest recording is now at the bottom of the list, newest at the top and they've moved the scheduled to another Tab - Argghhh

Been one of those weeks for changes.
My TV updated it's Freeview channels so we updated the digital recorder ...now it won't record! Need to get a son to meddle with it tomorrow!

I hate them auto updates as you get no warning of them. But as i said i checked my planner and nothing has changed. It may yet happen though

You'd better not! - I appreciate you giving me your stock coils and making the 'fiddly' one! ...the day I worry about £1.11 is the day I fall off my perch!

Exactly! As long as it wasn't completely lost, we'll just need to forget it! Sadly, like I said, they're bigger than us ..we're only the customers!

Just remembered - I have to be up earlier tomorrow ...dogs getting a bath and clip....darn little hairs blasted all over the place - takes an hour to vaccum & clean the utility room after they're done!!
Better get some sleep! Nite Terry

Good to hear your post has been located at last. I just got some post I'd forgotten about, it was drawer handles I'd ordered for the little project I've been making. Couldn't believe they took 10 days to get here, that's 10 days after ordering not 10 days in the post mans hands. Oh I ordered them from China not the UK.
Royal Mail makes me wonder at times.

I haven't done much research on this yet, but I've just noticed the coils for GS Air look exactly the same as the coils for EGrip. It may give an extra option or two.

I'm not a great lover of changes and i don't think it's just as i get older.
You sort of get comfortable and then bang,start all over.

Can't you also use Aspire bvc coils in the e-grip Dave?
Seem to remember if you change the bottom pin they can be used.
If so, and you find out the two you pictured can be swopped,then an Aspire bvc could be made to fit the GS Air.

Trisha, just in case you don't know Chef's have changed their phone number, new one on bottom of page, but they prefer email, just picked it up on FB

Always the same with privatisation ...the customer comes last - profit & shareholders top priority!
I'm a firm believer that no public services should be privatised.

Does the knurled end on one make any difference (not sure of it's purpose)

I've never been one to embrace change unless I instigate it myself.

Right here's a picture that should tell the story.
I put the egrip coil in the GS and no joy, it said no atty. so after a few trials, different attys coils mods etc I found that with base and coil only attached to the mod it fired but connecting the tank then said no atty. stripped it cleaned a few times and after a couple of attempts it's now working with both the egrip and gs coils. Can't find any difference or what caused the no atty stage, I've used a micrometer and measured everything so I don't know but it's working both now.

The BVC coil is a lot different everyway, shape and size so I can't see a way of using them.
The rba base for the egrip is the full unit pictured so that can't be modified either.

I've only spoken with them on the phone twice, but made a note of that!
I just remembered, it's their new address I want - got a couple of things to send Karl and he'd said to wait until they got moved - I'll need to send him an email as it hasn't been changed on the site yet!

I noticed there's only 25 on the Chefs Blends page now ..Banoffee Cookie isn't there now (Not that I used it).

Just received some vape mail this morning. Just some bits for mod making, resistors, soldering iron some burrs for my dremel and a few other bits and pieces. 1 parcel was from China (not FT) but it did arrive at 9:15 this morning in a box approximately 10"x10"x4" and I ordered that package at about 20:30 last Sunday night. Think superman must have flown that one over.

Can't see any reason for the knurled part on the atty, must be just the way it's made.

It's not those bvc's Dave,they are for the Nautilus.It's the shorter bvc coil Aspire make.
Todd mentions it in his review.
