Took me a while, but I found it, if you mean the red one, then I have a similar blue one so think it might have been this one :
$1.92 POM + PMMA Hybrid 510 Drip Tip - red / adjustable air hole at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

The reviews for those aren't great but I've had this one in my basket since it came up a few weeks ago but no reviews yet. Diameter of the airflow is larger though at least.

The Sansa are quite a good make, I have the Sansa Fuze tucked away somewhere, I used to use it when I worked for living SanDisk Sansa Fuze Black 4 Gb Digital MP3 Player - FM Radio - Video - Photo 619659047993 | eBay

I read quite a few reviews first Bob and they all said the same thing - for a cheapo Mp3 player they perform as well as an iPod, but for a quarter of the price. I'm really happy with it. Been blasting my eardrums out today I've got everything from Guns 'N' Roses to Cee Lo Green on there. Even found a couple of tracks that I've not heard for years, just came across them by accident. One was Ted Nugent - Cat scratch fever, the other was Ollie and Jerry - one of the songs from Breakdance the Movie. I have a pretty eclectic taste in music

Ah! thanks! Something told me that poking a metal object into something with a battery isn't always a good idea! I'll turn it off.

I'd rather not put it to the test - I'll turn it off

Good idea Trisha, you don't want to end up with curly hair

I find liquid in a tank gets darker as you run down the tank. I've read it is sugars and other things which aren't 100% vapourised (the brown gunk you get on coils) can flow back down the wick to an extent and mix with the liquid. Sometimes in my lemo or kayfun if I set it perfectly upright right after quite a few vapes you can see the brown stuff mixing back into the liquid through the juice channel in a sort of plume. I find sweeter darker liquids get even sweeter as you run down the tank for this reason.

You're right Adam, it is caramelised liquid from the coil. It's not a problem with Grants vanilla custard though - the liquid is that dark already, you don't notice it

Felt a bit left out on the vapemail front yesterday
Just arrived, so i'm counting this.

Nice one George. All vapemail counts, even when it's a Crème Brulee Chef's torch

I`m not sure i would dispute it just yet george, and give them till monday to respond properly You are correct though regarding pp, they have helped me in the past with various vendors !

Bloody hell Terry, you're not having much luck with CV mate

I've got one of the guys from work coming round tomorrow. He's bought a Vulcan dripper and some sort of mech mod to power it. He's asked me to give him a build tutorial - no problem there. But when I asked what batteries he had, he said Duracell AA's - looks like I've got a bit of a job to do after all

Totally fed up with them at the minute mate, i could understand it happening once or twice, but i think it is now four times in a row and i am well and truly pis*ed with them

Like you say mistakes do sometimes happen, but when they keep happening, that's something else. There's got to be something wrong with their order processing.

Glad to be of service

That's honestly what he said. So it might be a long lesson tomorrow and I'm pretty sure I'll end up persuading him to get a Kayfun or Lemo instead with an iStick to go with it. I don't think he's got a battery charger or even an ohm reader.

Sounds like that`s going to be one long tutorial ian

Too right mate. I asked him what he knew about coils and wicks, he said "I've bought a dripper, so it only needs a coil"

Oh well, guess we all started out as novices.

I should charge him for dipping into my wealth of knowledge

As long as I can get him back into vaping again that's the main thing. He was using an Evod and Ego, but got cheesed off with it, so was back on the cigs when I last saw him.

Good to see you're doing your bit for converting people!

Point him in the right direction with batteries and ohms and online resources and he should be fine!

 

[vince01]

Which ry are you using Terry ?

Hey vinnie It`s steamgunks bought from chefs, I reckon in the future i will be buying direct from SG though Their captain custard is awesome as well mate, miles better than the digby`s custard, Ahem.

Was pretty good thanks mate, could have done with a bit longer off work though. Went for a Chinese for Xmas dinner

I've got the Orchid on my Hana, performing great, cracking vape - filled up with Snickerdoodle from NT.

I'm always preaching Adam, bit like one of those TV Evangelists

He's not very good with anything like DIY, so I reckon it's gonna be an interesting day.

 

[trouble1000]

I'd better shoot off now. My student is coming round about 9am tomorrow.

Night all.

Is it pretty close in taste to the Hangsen ?

I tried the CV one but it was nothing like

Custard doesn't appeal to me mate

Well i ain`t chasing round different forums looking for them trish, but thanks anyway. The last time it could have been before they moved, but even so their e-mail address wouldn`t have changed, so they should have still got the message.

This time, i have sent them an e-mail from my phone, one through their site, left a message on their voicemail, and on their facebook page ! I did get an e-mail back from them a couple of hours ago, but it only says your e-mail has been received and will be dealt with quickly. I think they are having a laugh there !!

As adam says, posting on their FB page should get them moving, but nothing as yet.

Such a shame! I'm sad for you and for them ...something isn't going well. I do hope for everyone's sake things get back to normal there soon.
I once sent an email through the site and it didn't get answered, but when I found an old one from Karl and used that to send an email, it worked. Let me know if you want an alternative email address.

Good idea Trisha, you don't want to end up with curly hair

I don't? Hmm ...could be good though - mine is around 16" long and as straight as a plumb bob! But, I think perhaps that's a drastic way to try for curls!

Totally fed up with them at the minute mate, i could understand it happening once or twice, but i think it is now four times in a row and i am well and truly pis*ed with them

It's not good, and it's nice to feel confident once an order is placed.

As long as I can get him back into vaping again that's the main thing. He was using an Evod and Ego, but got cheesed off with it, so was back on the cigs when I last saw him.

...and I had all of you to keep me moving forward!
I can still happily use an Evod, but on a better battery such as an iPow, but my iSticks and MOW's/mini Nautili are what suits me fine!
It would take a lot to send me back to cigarettes, but it would be the health issues in my case ..and the continued search for my missing brain cells to join the 'dots' up!

You can't Terry - Chefs took over the liquid side of it.


By the way - the RY one from Heathers is good: Heathers Heavenly Tobacco it's called (It's an RY though). They also do Heavenly Army: It's a NET and I haven't tried mine yet as it's been steeping. I'll try it soon, but I'd definitely buy the Heavenly Tobacco again.

I've got a few NET's to try that have been steeping from both Indigo and Heathers. They're all the caramel/vanilla, sweeter types. I'll let you know what they're like when I try them.

I tried some Kingslayer today again - it's not as rich as some I've had, so wouldn't be my favourite.

I've also tried the MBV Admiral Berry Crunch - more of the Crunch than Berry, so not balanced enough for me. I could add something like Squid ink or another berry one to it though.

And, Avant Garde French Vanilla - it's a very nice Vanilla Cream type. Good on it's own and will be good mixed with other things such as fruits or tobacco ones.
