weird, that was a brand new one, I only opened the box took it apart to have a gander, think I put the single coil widget inside and then put it all back together again, just like I did with the one that I am using.

Just set up the Aromamizer you sent me, SV Titanium, dual 14 wraps each of 26g came out at 0.17ohms, horizontal build, with some Japanes cotton and some Yaeliq BUTTERSCOTCH & at 60w/430F and it vapes, nice and cool, great flavour & good clouds on my woody DNA200

Some Yaeliq WHAT Glad your enjoying it Bob I noticed you had nicked the cotton out of the Bellus though
That what i posted the other day about firing the Bellus 2 or 3 times before opening the AFC !! Don`t bother, it doesn`t work, and just flooded mine

Sorry about that, when I open a new one up I always take all the loose things out, tear open the bags containing the cotton, coils & o-rings etc and put them into my own stock, managed to dig out the o-rings & screws, knew you wouldn't want the coils, and I think I had already used up the cotton, it wasn't until I had posted it I thought about the single coil widget, but seem to remember that i had put it inside the tank (hope it was there because I can't find it here)

Know he waffles a bit but it is worth watching the first 10 minutes of this as it is about Battery Safety:

Well i dunno whats happening at Chefs ? For example, if you look at the bottom of their home page, there is about 8 of their range. On friday i managed to order 100 ml of Lews Brew, yesterday i got 100 ml of QOP, and earlier today i got 100 ml of Doughnut King.
So 3 separate orders, but with free postage it doesn`t matter that much, but the thing is, if you check what`s there eg Lews Brew, it will have gone next time you look and will have been replaced with something else !! Hence me having to place separate orders ???

That's great Terry thanks ..I hadn't thought of scrolling down!
I kept two pages open (one for the basket, the other for the home page)then refreshing the home page changes the mix - keep doing that or going back and forth on the site, and you find what you want shows up eventually

Haven't a clue why the liquids aren't properly listed though.
I have plenty of liquid as such, but it's mostly higher nicotine, so needs to be diluted - good to be able to stock up on some. Daren't wait to see if there's a vendors day in case it disappears again ...although I suppose it would have been this weekend if there had been!

Had a look on the FB page and nothing been posted since Dec 16th - so I don't think anything will this month, the only things I've run out of at the moment is Captain's Custard & the Moose Juice, which they haven't had for a while now

@Bobw1951 the battery issue seems to be with the meter and the way it reads not as much wi battery life. Battery life isn't good, but the first 65% of the meter went and the battery was still at 3.8-9 the final 35% of the battery lasted about twice as long as the first 65%.

I ordered the SOD15k to go on top for my style of vaping $85 authentic on sale for $25 plus $5 for the hollow center pin. Looks like it will be great. For lung inhales the aromizer v2 seeks pretty good. It's actually more flavorful than the magma. I want to get a solid center pin and repurpose it to a standard dripper. But I need to see if I can find that without waiting three weeks and then having to pay $10 shipping for a screw.

Yes, have noticed that it still fires okay even when in the last third - which both of mine are at, at the moment Vaporshark had a similar problem with their DNA40

Well it's just very odd that .4 Amos is considered 65% of the battery. Also people in that thread noted no difference at all in battery life regardless of build and power used. So I do believe there is an issue with their firmware that they need to fix. But it's likely they won't fix it considering they're saying it's due it parasitic loss calibration - which is impossible at that quantity

Heat transfer is not great but wi air holes open its not awful. Only when trying to use the aromizer in a way it's clearly not designed for is it a super big issue.

Yep got it Bob ! gonna have a good blast with it tonight when i crack a tinny

Don't know if you saw my edit above about the VS, I doubt very much they will issue an update, not even sure the firmware is updateable, think it is something that will have to be put up with, quite possible it will cut out when the battery does indeed get too low, haven't actually tested that theory though and not really prepared to do it either.

I find the best way of dealing with that, with any tank that tends to flood, is fill normally (airflow/juice flow closed off), and once filled and everything opened up is to get some tissue (I actually use an old tea-towel) held lightly over the air holes and blow though the DT, that clears most of it out and hopefully stops any leakage

I got rather fond of the Moose banana cream pie one ..just the right amount of banana and cream flavours. I liked a couple of the other ones too.
I don't use Captains Custard, but seem to buy the Virtual Custard most. Both custards - and Welsh Custard - are showing up with screen refreshes on the Chefs Home page.

The MJ ones I like are Golden Goose & Creamy Hazelnut Roulade, I've got the Welsh, very nice, I haven't tried the Virtual one, might be worth a punt...

Yeah i have to do that with my crown Bob, no big deal really

Yes it was accidental really Trish, but at least i got what i needed for now, and hopefully all will be normal sooner rather than later

The Golden Goose is one I like too
I like the Welsh Custard, and can never quite decide if I like that or the Virtual one best
I just ordered a large bottle of 0mg Virtual to use as is, and also to dilute some Welsh custard in 6mg, and 12mg (would you believe!)
Virtual Custard - ChefsVapour
Captain custard - ChefsVapour

A happy accident though!
I just ordered 450ml so that'll last me a good while, and reduce the strength of a lot that I already have.
...hope they don't get a shock when they see the orders tomorrow!

One thing that would make me very happy is if they reintroduced the MCV! It's OK being able to make it, but I'm not fond of messing around measuring stuff
No matter what I get tired of, MCV has never been one of them ...used it almost daily since they first made it.
I ordered a 30ml of 0mg Strawberry Vapetto ...I like it by itself, and also mixed with things like chocolate, PMP, etc.

I also ordered two flavourings: Cotton Candy and Raspberry Yogurt ...wondering if mixed they'll make something similar to Chem Trail!

Why didn't you just get the Capella "Blue Raspberry Cotton Candy" that's nice, it's what I'm using in one of my KF4s, although it doesn't taste like Chem Trail hmm maybe it needs some cream added...

What percentage do you mix that ? Sounds like a flavor I'd enjoy but typically Capella flavoring a - well for most people are used in complicated recipes. Does it taste good just by itself?

@Pictor I can't say I'm a huge fan of the virtual doughnuts. I'm not sure what part of the ingredients make up the virtual part. Presumably so,e shared ingredients with virtual custard. I have a fair bit of welsh custard both made and in storage as. Find it tends to mix well with anything. I'm sticky curious how it would make this premium t tobacco flavor taste if I added some. Jts almost like a magic cure all for any flavor that isn't great but isn't bad.

Also On my way! Step further for flooding tanks on fill aside for, closing the air flow is to turn it upside down when you open it so the air bubble is right by the afc or port holes. I have to do that with my gem tanks.

I checked the aromizer 2 and unfortunately there isn't a replacement 510 included. I'm glad to see there are so,e small Philips screws for the deck so I can get rid of the specialized Allen ones. I don't care for non standard deck screws by and large. However if they fit with a t6 I'll use them. That size star screwdriver seems to open most aliens it fits into.

I made it up for 20/80 PG/VG 6mg using 36mg VG nic:
Nicotine Strength e-Juice PG 0% VG 100% 36mg
Target Nicotine Strength 6mg
Amount to Make 10ml
Nicotine eJuice 1.67ml 33 Drops 16.7%
PG 0.5ml 20% 10 Drops 5%
VG 80% 6.33ml 127 Drops 63.3%
Water/Vodka/PGA 0ml 0 Drops 0%
Blue Raspberry Cotton Candy 1.5ml 30 Drops 15%

So you would have to adjust the Nic & PG/VG percentages to suit
