I actually find small mods awkward to take out, I prefer to have a bigger one, with more battery life, I have a made for mods belt pouch for something like the Sig 100+ or DNA200s, the others I usually put in my jacket pocket next to my gloves, or if it is hot (70+ for us) then I use a shoulder bag (I don't drive).

Innokin have always made good quality mods, but they are normally slow at getting new things out and are usually a fair bit behind everyone else, think of the iTaste mods and the iClear clearomizers, the VTR was probably their most sought after mod along with the iClear 30s, built like a tank, they are only just venturing into TC.
Yah that's one of the biggest downsides to living in this heat. Obviously it's miserable for five months it doesn't drop below about 95F (35C) ever. Even at two am. But with that you she'd clothing. Don't Carry bags. With you. Etc. So size for me has to be small. I can't deak..with a rage things in my pockets. Even my wallet is tied to my phone. I'D. And two bank cards along with health insurance card. That's it. The little.ego one units battery lasts a lot.lknger than my stand alone 500 series batteries and they're even smaller than a 500 series. The atomizer - well if you haven't tried the ego.mega atomizer with car cool (not the cl) you're missing out. The flavor is the best of any disposable coil.going. Imo. And the fact you can rebuild them in three minutes means you can have a bucket of..coils always ready to.go. Nhuomdbthen every few months for an hour. If you like the bigger stuff the tank is only $13 right now for the ego.mega. A pack of car rebuild able.coils is $9. It's an inexpensive trial for anyone looking for convenient inexpensive vsping setup and low.cost long term.

That's great!!

My mod.fkrthe titanium gem just arrived. It's a pretty good match. Can't complain at a like.new m.class for $100 shipped and fees included. I need to.lut the 22 mm beauty ring on probably. See how that looks. But here's the favorite combo I use. It's a very expensive setup but the vape is outstanding.

Here they are. And the stainless steel gem.wjth wae in dna 30 mod.

Thanks for he percentages no made a bit before of most of those but a few I must have missed. I just mixed 100ml of strawberry vapetto at 30% and my initial Impression of hand shaken is not good. I'm sirenian will improve with even a 24 hour steep but I think that one will go in the cupboard for a month based on what I tasted after the initial mix.
Have you had the Strawberry Vapetto ready made? It's different from most strawberry/cream types due to the waffle cone. I like it, but thinking about the NT Strawnilla, which is better for a longer steep, perhaps the SV will improve a fair bit with some steeping :)

Nice colour choice - I like them, and have three of them ..plus a green one set aside 'for a rainy day' :)

Are you opposed to the I stick line? I don't know if you're look g for something less mass produced and more "class" or unique but the Istick 30 is tiny and 30 watts. Battery lasts well. No problems unlike some other lines. Also the Istick 40 tc is a little larger but the temp control works well
I still like all my iStick variations, and use some of them daily. The little 10w ones are great for fairly short trips out, and also to use while a larger battery is being charged.
I don't get too worried when going out though because I've found I'm fine for 3 hours plus without! ...greatly surprised me! (I always take two small ones with me though if out ...just in case!)
With iSticks, I have 10w up to 100W - all very good and used regularly ...some every day.

For ultimate small I use the ego one units. They're amazing for the size for mouth to lung or lung inhales. The only tank / combo I found that can properly do both. The coils have different air hole sizes based on desired use.
When it comes to small stick type batteries, I still like, and use, the iPOW. I like that they have adjustable wattage (up to 15W), display ohms, and battery level. I've had a few of them for a fair while now, and so far, not an ounce of trouble. I use them with Mega MOW tanks mostly, but sometimes use a mini Subtank on them.
I'd try the Ego One if they had adjustable VV/VW, and coils a little higher than 1.0ohm were available.

Vapemail2 :
Oh! mine came in 5 x 200ml bottles - he must have run out of those
That little lot should last a while! ;)

I've got a couple of questions to ask you guys if you don't mind.

1. Can the Kanger subtank Mini Rebuildable RBA Plus coil head fit in any other tanks apart from Kanger subtanks?.

2. I use 0.5ohm and 1.5ohm coils and rebuildables in my subtank. what other ohms can be built using kanthal wire to be used with a TC 75W mod?.

3. Where in the UK (not online) can you buy purified water?. And I mean proper purified water NOT deionised or distilled water.

Kanger Subtank & Mega & the Nebox and maybe anything else they decide to bring out but no non Kanger stuff

for temp control you have to use other types of wire, but if you are using the TC mod in power mode then look at the instructions/specs as to what the min/max resistance is allowed for the Treebox it is 0.06 to 2.0 ohms

3. Where in the UK (not online) can you buy purified water?. And I mean proper purified water NOT deionised or distilled water.
From UKV:
I spoke to the Boots Pharmacist today and asked if de-ionised water from hardware/car shops is safe to drink or inhale as vapour?
His answer was a straight NO!
De-ionised water from a car or hardware shop, is not fit for human consumption, by drinking or otherwise consumed.

I asked him what the alternative would be?
He suggested purified water, which is distilled and bottled in a sanitary manner.

This is available to order from boots, but only in 5 litre bottles!

LLyoyds chemist and tesco pharmacy can order them in 2ltr (still a huge amount)

I went up to Tesco to see if they had any off the shelf, but ended up ordering a 2ltr bottle from them @ £2.47 so even its 100 times the amount I need its a good enough price, I think I will freeze the remaining to keep it fresh till the next time I need 20ml.

For the price and size it's hard to find fault with them if non removable battery and size are important the ultimate would be the 30 but I feel the 40 is worth the small increase in size.

I have used both for a while now with no issue. One of them I completely submerged in water. Put it in rice for a couple days. Worked great again.

I know there are people who hate the line. I'm not one. They've been very good to me when I wanted the smallest possible and for the size battery life is fantastic. Also they're inexpensive.

2200mah
$33.34 Authentic Eleaf iStick 30W 2200mAh Variable Voltage / Wattage APV Box Mod (iStick 30W VV/VW Mod, 2200mAh, Blue, Euro Plug) at m.FastTech.com

2600 mah
$26.34 Authentic Eleaf iStick 40W 2600mAh Temperature Control VW APV Box Mod (iStick 40W TC VW Mod, 2600mAh, Blue) at m.FastTech.com

Id stay away from the 50 it's had some issues.

I used to be a big fan of innokin then they sort of stayed behind with large low powered devices. It's nice to see them coming back into things. I may have to try one of them !

Thanks for this. I have the istick 100w, 50w, 20w and a Smart 20 (istick clone). I'm a big fan!

I tried a cracking Strawberry for the first time today.Got it on a 20% offer from South Coast vapes.
Nipple Juice.
Took 1/2 dozen draws,and went back online and ordered another two bottles.Ratios are a bit off for you 'tho Trish.

That little lot should last a while! ;)

I'm saving it for if and when

Incase of Emergency,shouldn't have to be driven to it 'tho:mad:

for temp control you have to use other types of wire, but if you are using the TC mod in power mode then look at the instructions/specs as to what the min/max resistance is allowed for the Treebox it is 0.06 to 2.0 ohms


From UKV:

Thanks Bob, Sorry I should of explained a bit better for q1.

1. I meant can the Kanger RBA be used in other tanks like Aspire, JoyeTech etc etc.

2. So does that mean I can use NI200 for TC 0.06 to 2.0 ohms for the Treebox and 0.1-2ohms for the TOPBOX and the same for Kanthal in Wattage mode?.

3. That info you got from UKV was on POTV.
I had a look on Boots website and LLoyds Chemist and nothing come up on Boots and on LLoyds it said it was only available on prescription lol.

@Ms.Sue is the water for making ejuice, if so I bought a small bottle online a couple of years ago and have never used it - I just use nic, pg, vg & flavourings, some people use it to thin out the VG but I never have, some people use Vodka instead.

I make 50/50 PG/VG and I want to reduce the PG and up the VG BUT as I like sweet juices I don't want it to gunk up my coils so I want to thin it out.

Using vodka?? hmmm, I'll have to read up about that.

1. No NON Kanger tanks
2. You can use Ni200, Ti & SS prebuilt coils on most TC mods in TC Mode, definitely on the Treebox
You can use Kanthal on ANY mod within the range of resistance that the mod allows, you can find that info on the manufacturers page for the mod usually if you don't have it on the box or in the manual, some mods will automatically recognise Kanthal and switch to Power mode otherwise you may have to do it yourself.
3. I think you may have to physically go into Boots to request they order it for you, don't know why Lloyds are saying you need a prescription for it, unless they have cottoned on to what people are using it for :unsure:

EDIT for 2. SS can also be used in Power mode (Non TC) on any mod aka the Triton & Crown tanks

Does anyone get ...... off when you contact a company and they don't get back to you?.

On Monday I contacted Leisure Liquids about their Pink Spot concentrates and they still haven't replied back.
Definitely, I have now sent 3 emails to a company in California as to why my order is "On Hold" and they are not responding, luckily so far they have not taken the money from my account. It seems a couple of people have had the same problem a while back, but others have had no problems.

Happens loads that Sue.
I contacted a company with the view of buying a mod,didn't know the price,but i think it's safe to say it would have been high end(very high end).
No reply.
