Just a helpful guy on AAEC :)
Ah, OK - wondered what the connection was with Chefs.
I can't see anything about the site changes mentioned on their website.

At least 0mg will not be included in any silly rules ..unlike the US where it'll be tobacco in the eyes of their awful new rules.

:facepalm: That's just pure stupid.It's as much a tobacco product as is a lettuce.
Typical of their gov.departments - go overboard on everything - too many fingers in the pie, I wonder sometimes if there is anywhere on the planet where there is no corruption of any kind :(

It is - makes ours look much less menacing. They seem set to totally decimate the whole thing ...talk about throwing the baby out with the bathwater ...they're throwing the bath out too!

But we have known about the new site and have wondered if that was what they were preparing to do :)
Yes, we did - but I only knew about it from one of you saying so - and I haven't seen it stated anywhere else. I don't use Twitter or Facebook, and I daresay there's plenty of others just like me :rolleyes:
Not everyone reads this thread.
I'd have expected a short message at the top of their home page as I expect their customer base is far and wide.

If you find it, don't make it public! they'll change that too :laugh:

Finally spoke to someone at RM - all they could say was that they decided in our sorting office that the address was incorrect, so sent it back! nothing to do with it being 'unclaimed'
My argument is that it's not their property to send back across the Atlantic! :-x

Our sorting office know our name and address as we've had plenty of post delivered to us over the past 23 years, and we've also had the same postman for around 12 years now. He knows for sure he hasn't seen the package at all.

I can't see the address label to comment, the person on the phone couldn't either, so that leaves Stash to check what was on it when it arrives back!

All I can say is the tracking email Stash sent me definitely had the correct address on it.

I can practically imagine my package being thrown high over my head by one stranger to another stranger, and me desperately trying to catch it before it disappears - another example of faceless people making decisions for me!
I'm not in a good mood - it shows ..yes? :laugh:

May present itself as something new as far as shape/appearance, but power and capacity wise this is stepping back in time!
$17.84 Authentic Eleaf iNano Kit (650mAh) - 0.8ml / 1.2ohm / stainless steel + glass at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

Blimey - Direct Output Voltage! Back to the days of batteries fading away. This seems like a bit of a dinosaur masquerading as new tech. I think I'll avoid it. And how is a 1.2 ohm coil going to cope with a battery hot off of the charger at 4.2 volts? POP! perhaps.

First Eleaf mod since the first iStick that I've taken an instant dislike to.

I have a feeling there'll be other styles & brands in the offing that we won't like either!

It's such an awful step backwards. Regulated mods are not only much safer but they're easier to tweak to find the "sweet spot". They can't be trying to drag us back into the dark ages, can they? I doubt many people could get more than a few hours out of that - thing. Ah well - roll on the 23rd of June!

Definitely - these were the first ones with a tank that I had after having to stop using cartridges: Kanger E Smart Starter Kit (Cherry) - Starter Kits ...served their purpose, as did the Evod stuff, but even my iPOW batteries have a window showing ohms, wattage (up to 15w), & battery level.

I think this particular item is intended as a small unobtrusive one to take out and about ...but not for long! ;) I use my 10w iStick minis for that.
I do wonder what new items will be presented as 'approved' though, and fear many will indeed see it as a step back to the 'dark ages' ..as indeed the whole thing is!

Yes - roll on June 23rd!

Do you prefer those to the supreme Bob?
haven't tried the v2 yet, but it is not a lot different from the v1 except for the AFC which is fitted now rather than a silicon ring, and I definitely like the v1 to the Supreme, the only thing going for the Supreme is the top filling and juice control, only using one at the moment on my Centurion and it always feels loose (wobbly)

What we have to look forward to buying in the UK :evil:
Precisely! :( ....with luck, my stockpile will last well and I'll avoid having to buy something like that again!

So another couple of weeks for it to go back and forth - Ping Pong :laugh:
Exactly what I wanted to avoid!

It's been 'one of those days' today - nothing disastrous, but plenty that needed attention and consideration. I'm really tired but need to do some work!
