Been a while since I saw you mention using that one!

Have you noticed that Posset turns a deeper colour than LCCC as it deep steeps? I was looking at both bottles on a shelf this morning and it's quite noticeable.

It`s the first time i have tried it at all trish, It`s nice but gets a bit sickly after a while, so i won`t get it again. Just a nice change for now and then

I haven`t got any LCCC to compare with the posset, it`s another one which i found a bit too rich in flavour ! I did get my chefs order delivered today, i had only ordered 30 ml of doughnut, 30 ml of fluffy nuts, and 10 ml of posset, but Karl sent me 60 ml of the doughnut And a note on the invoice, saying checked by Karl, I think he meant it when he said ` It Won`t Happen Again `

Are you sure you put the fill hole grommet in properly

I don`t use them any more mate, to much condensation with them, so i use the screws in all of them now

Good, you've been posting too much anyway

How would you know, you`re never bleeding here

I more or less had everything I wanted with Chefs and a few NT MaxVG added, but not much around from NT in Max VG now (less than before), so trawling around looking for a few different or really good ones is tiresome and time consuming.
If I don't find a few soon, I'll give up and just keep to my favourite Chefs!

As far as brand is concerned, both Heathers & Highbrow are looking fairly good, and MBV also have a couple I really like!
A couple of rather nice ones from SNG, but not sure they'll be 'must haves'.
Avant Garde make a really nice French Vanilla, and I have three more of theirs to try too (Custard, Berries and a Strawberry one).

I'm curious more than anything else where custard is concerned. Quite happy with what I have If a strawberry/cream isn't forthcoming, I'll stay with the Strawberry Vapetto. I do want a Vanilla, and perhaps a couple of NET based flavoured tobacco ones, and a simple, rich dark chocolate, something similar to butterscotch pudding, and something like a Crème Brule ...got something similar that seems good from SNG.

No different at all Ian - it's exactly the same with an inch off the bottom!
This photo is the full size ones with a MOW tank and a mini nautilus, so imagine them an inch shorter

I know what you mean Trisha. I've done the same myself. You get curious about a flavour and think, I'll just try it. Then you try a few more similar ones to compare them. As long as you don't discover that the first one you tried was the best one and all the others are below par. I've done that a few times

So the iStick mini has the same size top piece as the regular iStick 20 watt, but it's just an inch shorter in height

Company supplied us with watches, but they were always useless, even the radio controlled ones, I used to buy a Casio radio controlled digital for use at work, and kept my better one for other times, the one I mainly use these days is a Mondaine (Swiss Railway watch), it's not radio controlled but hasn't lost a second since I bought it about six months ago.

My Rotary watches are the same Bob. I got my first one about 15 years ago, a "golden handshake" from a place I used to work at. In all that time, I've replaced the strap 5 times and the battery 3 times. It's never lost time and just seems to keep on working. It's not diamond encrusted or anything, but it does have a gold case, so I wouldn't want to scratch it. The other 2 I have are cheaper ones, about 100 quid each, but their the same. Never lose time and just keep on working.

As loud as?

Almost Gave me a shock when it first happened. Wasn't expecting the chime to work (with it being a cheapo watch). So I'd forgotten, I'd switched the chime on - then it went off on the hour - ....

Think my Black one is showing as 9th Feb, T8 is RTS and the 2 Lemo Drops are due to ship 21st, don't know if they will split the shipping or not.

Your Lemos might ship earlier Bob. The order I've got coming (with the coilers), has a Lemo in it too - originally the Lemo was showing as the 20th, but it's in with the coilers now. So you never know

I don`t use them any more mate, to much condensation with them, so i use the screws in all of them now

So you've not got a screw loose then

How would you know, you`re never bleeding here

I know mate. I feel like Lord Lucan

[trouble1000]

It's still the same watch though, I've got a photo of it

Doubt it they are all in 1 order, although they might split it and send the 2 Lemo Drops & T8 together seeing as the Cloupor Mini is not due until Feb (right in the middle of their holidays)

 

[Bobw1951]

Just got an Atlantis on UKV classies for £35, includes 5 new heads, the 7ml extension and shipping via UPS

If it's going to be that long before the Cloupor is in stock, you never know, they might well split the order Bob. I'll make sure I don't order anything in Feb then, don't want to disturb their hols

Did you not see my message yesterday about the upcoming holidays

 

[trouble1000]

Did you not see my message yesterday about the upcoming holidays

Yep I did Bob, was just messing about

In all honesty, if something appears that I really want, I'll still be ordering if their on hols or not.

Ok, time for bed.

Goodnight posters and lurkers

Think my Black one is showing as 9th Feb, T8 is RTS and the 2 Lemo Drops are due to ship 21st, don't know if they will split the shipping or not.

They split one of mine a while back when I asked abut the delay.

Pictor have you tried vape club,they've got some organic 100% vg juice on there.Hope this helps

Thanks - just took a look, and they're brands I tried before ...not terribly good really. They're available from GreenVape too, and they also have Velvet Cloud - some of those are quite good! Nice to use on days when I need to stay with 100% VG until the PG overload settles (It seems to build up at times)!

It`s the first time i have tried it at all trish, It`s nice but gets a bit sickly after a while, so i won`t get it again. Just a nice change for now and then

Ah! I thought you'd tried it around the same time I tried a lot of the Chefs ones back in April/May last year. I quite liked it but the apple made me wheeze. I liked the Spottedick too, but I think that has cinnamon in it? something in it made me wheeze ..but loved the Jamaican Ginger! It kills coils, but I'll re-visit it soon as I do still have some.

I haven`t got any LCCC to compare with the posset, it`s another one which i found a bit too rich in flavour ! I did get my chefs order delivered today, i had only ordered 30 ml of doughnut, 30 ml of fluffy nuts, and 10 ml of posset, but Karl sent me 60 ml of the doughnut And a note on the invoice, saying checked by Karl, I think he meant it when he said ` It Won`t Happen Again `

Ah, didn't realise you found the LCCC too rich! It's probably the way you use it ..my power levels and tanks are quite simple in comparison ..and a lot more VG too!
Nice your order was 'enhanced' ! I got a nice note from Karl too

The more I taste these small bottles from other places, the more I'm appreciating their skills!
I will find a few different ones from the others I'm trying, but It's things that I can't get ready made at Chefs such as a good vanilla, strawberry/cream, various NET based flavoured (chocolate, coffee, vanilla, caramel) tobacco ones, rich dark chocolate, etc. - but if I don't find them, I'll take a closer look at the flavourings I have and see how I can add them to other things!

I know what you mean Trisha. I've done the same myself. You get curious about a flavour and think, I'll just try it. Then you try a few more similar ones to compare them. As long as you don't discover that the first one you tried was the best one and all the others are below par. I've done that a few times

Sometimes, I have an idea of what I'm looking for and just can't find it!

Yes!

My Rotary watches are the same Bob. I got my first one about 15 years ago, a "golden handshake" from a place I used to work at.

Never lose time and just keep on working.

Since I began working at home, I don't wear a watch. Only if I'm out on my own and need one! It's a little Tissot I bought in Lisbon. Only gold plated and has a lapis stone in the winder and a deep blue leather strap
I also got a pair of very lightweight titanium specs frames that cost twice the price here!
My husband has a Tissot that I bought him years ago - new batteries and straps now and then, but works perfectly.

Almost Gave me a shock when it first happened. Wasn't expecting the chime to work (with it being a cheapo watch). So I'd forgotten, I'd switched the chime on - then it went off on the hour - ....

Ha-ha! Be a nice touch for New Years Eve!
We had to get a new DECT phone a couple of years ago, and I charged it, set it all up and put names/numbers into the phone book of it. First time it rang, it announced the person by name in a very easy to hear voice: 'call from -----' Made us stop dead in our tracks, and then we started to laugh. I thought we'd get really sick of it, but we didn't. It's actually useful. It rings, and rather than rush to answer it, we can hear whether it's someone we know, a number we don't, or more importantly, withheld, unavailable, or international. All three of those get terminated, and we don't rush to answer it!

That's nice - pity I can't buy it though ....they don't do Max VG currently!
I'd use at least four of them frequently if they did, as they're amongst the ones I'm currently trying to find in a Max VG!!

Speaking of new ones: Cloudhouse are getting 18 of the the Coval Vapes in any day. EDIT: They're on their site now: http://cloudhousevapor.com/American-made-Juices/Coval-Vapes/
This is the Coval website - certainly one or two I'll be happy to try if they're amongst the ones Nathan stocks. Some are 90%VG, some 70% and others 50% (There's one particular 50% I'd try if it was 70 or 90!):

It arrived! - Black Cloupor Mini and two MOW tanks (two packages) arrived in today's post! I got despatched emails on 5th and 4th, so delivery time wasn't bad at all

The Cloupor is in a fairly strong cardboard box along with a retractable USB charger, little velvet type bag, tiny Philips type screwdriver (to adjust the pin?), and a tiny box with some screws and a metal post of some sort in it

I put a new 18650 battery in it and it was actually already turned on! It's quite heavy once it has a battery ..more heavy than the iStick for all it's only a tiny bit bigger. Perhaps a combination of replaceable battery and stronger built case.
It was already set at 'Watts' and the lowest setting of 7. The battery only had one bar of charge in it, so after a brief try with a tank on it proved satisfactory, I've put it to charge using the mini USB cable provided in a 1A mains plug.

There's a piece of oval shiny sticky plastic on the upper half of the magnetic door ...not sure what that's there for.
The door doesn't move easily, so it's not going to slip off in use!
Tidy looking inside too (unlike the mini Hana I got that wouldn't work)

Yes, to adjust the pin (anticlockwise to bring it up) and the little box, extra 510 pins and magnets for the door

There's a piece of oval shiny sticky plastic on the upper half of the magnetic door ...not sure what that's there for.

with a nice big red arrow on it to show you how to open the door , you can peel it off and use a wet one to remove any marks left

 

[Pictor]

Ah! of course - the screws are actually pins! ..and the metal 'post' is magnets er, magnetised!

with a nice big red arrow on it to show you how to open the door , you can peel it off and use a wet one to remove any marks left

Well no, there isn't a red arrow ..there is a tiny irregular spot of something that hints at red, but nothing more. I'm assuming it's a case of applying a bit of pressure in that area and pulling it down with the thumb? (I actually tried doing that and it refused to budge! - strong little devil that door!) I had to encourage it to move by pulling at it with a fingernail!

Seeing the arrow was all but gone and the thing already turned on ...has this been used do you think?
What's the average charge time on the 18650?

 

[terry w]

What's the average charge time on the 18650?

Happy vapemail to you trisha My sig has now been despatched to overseas as well If you are charging using the usb, going off when i charge my Hana that way, it seems to take forever A good few hours !

Possibly been tested by FT employee?? a few hours via USB if it was that low
Did you watch the PBusardo review I posted yesterday - he shows the 'Arrow' sticker and actually removes it
