They certainly have potential George, That is why i am just experimenting with them ATM IE: Different coil sizes, wicks etc. The way i wicked it today, was to have the coil across the air hole diagonally, then after threading the wick and priming, because the tails are not in line with the channels folding them back. Certainly wicks very well using this method, but i think i will build at a lower res when i have finished this tank

Sent the crappy hana back today, took a pic of it with the stamp on it, in the post office, and sent them a pic along with a pic of the receipt ! FT actually sent me an attatchment, showing the cheapest postage with RM was £9.75 It actually cost me £12.45, so i dunno where they got that from

How did they get it to £9.75- did they use a different weight? At least they should be able to compare the criteria used on your first RM pricing result with what they did to arrive at a lower price ..can only assume they did the same thing but used some variation of weight perhaps.
Are they going to pay you what you paid...I hope so!

I see you don't speak WelshIt's Glas as in green not the type you look thru'.
Only kidding mate.

They don't siarad Cymraeg in the valleys George

 

[Bobw1951]

Thanks dw I'm using the BVC coils in my ets I get a good vapour I'm looking for something to give me a bit more flavour with out going down the dripping road

Be careful Marcus, the Aspire BVC which I think the ets uses are not the same as the Aspire Nautilus BVC which are slightly bigger.

Rewicked one of mine today,after listening to you last time Terry and folding the wick over like in the vid you posted
Better now 'tho.
Small order from FT arrived today with quartz tanks @ Vince they do fit the Orchids and Kayfuns.Well mine anyway.
@Marcus whereabouts in Wales are you.

I've got 2 orchid v6 with glass tanks on the way George

and I've got pmma tanks tops and drip tips for these 3 v4s

coming as well. I could do with a couple of thread protectors

for the mods now, I've got a couple of the ss finned heat sinks

on the wish list but they've not got very good reviews

Yes, perhaps they did put a lighter weight than i did trish, BUT it was weighed at the PO on their scales and that was the price I don`t think FT can argue about it

Noson dda bobw would u recommend the mini nautilus

Absolutely - I've got an ET-S sat on my desk at the moment and it is the shorter one (you'd think they could define the difference with a number perhaps.)

I'm sure they can't - not sure why they should make a point of being able to get it lower by using what must have been a different weight.
They must have accepted the original price anyway.

I haven`t heard back from them yet trisha, but the truth of the matter is, It is now on it`s way back to them whether they like it or not Ohh, i must remember to tell them i want a credit as well, don`t want another POS off them

I reckon i will get the cloupor what bob linked me, it`s got some good reviews.

 

[Brynglas]

Funny language Bob.
Brynglas means Green hill but strangely it can also mean Blue Hill.
There is no word for grass,they would say i'm going out to cut the Glas,meaning green or then again they could be going out to cut the Blue
I'm glad i'm English it's so much easier

Both Bob and i have ordered the Sig 100plus aswell Terry,they have had good reviews on Youtube.Worth a look

Ah yes! meant to remind you to tell them that ..they had me down for a replacement one until I asked for a refund.

I reckon i will get the cloupor what bob linked me, it`s got some good reviews.

I still see 20 days for stock on the Cloupor mini. Still, not in a hurry.
They got some of the mini iSticks in without adapter and usb lead, so hopefully the 'kit' ones will be in stock soon.

You know george, i may go with one of them instead of the cloupor. A lot of the specs are the same, but sigelei is a very well known company so i would trust buying something made by them a bit more me thinks Thanks for the link mate.

 

[Marcus1970]

What do you guys think of the joytech egrip?

Yeah i believe the plus version fixed all the issues the original sigelei 100 had. It now has a spring loaded pin and bevelled edges, as well as those funky lines. It would probably be my choice if I was looking for a more powerful (>50w) regulated device.

Noson dda bobw would u recommend the mini nautilus

One of my everyday favourites is the Mint Chocolate Vapetto one, and I've had it in a Nautilus mini for some months now - I do sometimes have to change the coil after just 3 days, but mostly it's 5-6 days. If I buy plenty when there's some good prices available, I don't mind changing them, but last week wondered how it would be if I used it in a Kanger MOW tank with the V2 coils ....barely lasted into a second day! Those V2's are pretty good for lasting, but not with something like Chocolate!
So, back to the mini Nautilus and happy again

I have a lemon creamy one (Posset from CV) in another mini Nautilus, and that hasn't had the coil changed since November 21st. Getting close to needing a change now, but I certainly can't complain.

 

[terry w]

Well myself and others on here wouldn`t touch one with a barge pole marcus ! The tank is sealed in with the battery, so no way to clean it out without running the risk of getting water into all the electrics.

Can anybody explain or point me in the direction of some reading matter

as to why each manufacturer says that you should only use the supplied USB cable ?

I can understand the need for the transformer to match the circuitry, but I was under the impression

that the U in USB stood for Universal.

 

[Marcus1970]

Pictor look like a mini nautilus it is then.Terry good point didn't think of that

I use one or 2 of the same for all my charging vinnie ! I think it is the adapter which is more important than the USB cable
