Well, i dunno if it`s the 12 mg juice i am using, but i find the nickle a bit harsh on the old throat. How are you finding it ?


Flavour seems marginally better,didn't notice any harsher TH.And i've never suffered a dry hit with the Lemo,so truth be told Tel,it's very clever but i don't see what all the fuss is about :laugh:

Talking Ni builds watched a Todd video and he said he'd just done a build with the coils touching and found it was his best build to date.
So instead of a drill bit next one i think i'll try it on a coiler:)

If i remember correctly, my first ever build which came in at .16 ohms i had the coils touching by squeezing them together while pulsing. It did seem better than the build i have now, with the coils spaced and reading .27 ohms.

New build when i get chance me thinks !

I have read mixed opinions on the range, so haven't bothered looking too much at it. I see it's mostly out of stock there at the moment ...and it's another one that doesn't disclose the VG/PG content! Same as Jimmy the Juice Man. I think that's a bit arrogant on the makers part. It's well known now that people have tolerance problems with varying percentages of both.
I remember emailing one company a while back and all they'd say is that it has more PG in it than I was looking for. Hardly encouraging and not at all likely to have me try it just to see.

It did have a lot of hype when I tried it, to be honest I wouldn't buy any more. I enjoyed most of them at the time, but I've found much better juices (stronger tasting) since then. I agree they should disclose the pg/vg ratio, it shouldn't be that much of a secret. It's not just because of tolerance problems either, a thicker juice can affect the way you do a build on a re-buildable atty too.

There are times I could agree!
I tried the Interstate 45 today - Very good! A bit like an RY type with vanilla custard, caramel and brown sugar ..and I can taste those flavours. This will be a repeat order!
Still got the 5150 and 0zero to try yet.

Sounds promising then Trisha, another one to add to the vapable list then :)

I'm only OK for so long and then get fidgety ...especially if I see another plane out of the window :blink:

I just get bored on a flight, last time I took my e-reader with me - did help a lot.

Planes out of the window .... depends if you can see the whites of the passengers' eyes :ohmy::laugh:

Never a truer word spoken George :) I will give the nickle another try at some point, and if i`m still not 100% chuffed with it, i`ll just run it with Kanthal ! Love the flask, just not to sure about nickle !

What juice are you using in it Terry ??

The one I'm using is on the higher VG end, great throat hit, but not too harsh. It's Mother's Milk, so it's a 70% VG juice.

It`s Fluffy Nuts mate, no problem with it using kanthal :confused: So it`s either the spaced coils making it harsh, or nickle, not sure !

Nowt to lose George :toast:

I saw that as well and have tried both. I personally prefer the spaced out coils, they seem to allow for better wicking as I think touching coils burn up the juice in the centre of the coil quickly and then no more gets in while you're firing, whereas the spaced out coils stay 'moist' for longer.

Also I found once my touching Ni200 coils got slightly gunked up the performance decreased quite a bit, but not with spaced out coils.

I'll be honest I'm a big fan of Ni200 builds on the dna40 but they are definitely a lot more fiddly and hit and miss.

I re-coiled my marquis with normal duel 25ga kanthal micro coils for a change from Ni200 and have it on my stingray X (gasp! a mech mod! who uses those thee days?!) and it's been really good. Even got it in hybrid mode and it looks nicely sleek and flush as the atty has the same finish as the mod :vapor:

Have you tried lowering the temp at all mate ?? I know I can use a higher temp for my juice as VG boils at a higher temp than PG.

I know you've probably already done it, but I'd have a play around with the temp first. Apologies if you already have :)

BTW Terry have you learned anymore about how it's using the batterries.Can't wait for Bob,he'll take 'til Christmas to drain his :laugh:

Hi,Bob :2cool:

:laugh: No i haven`t George...Just run mine using one :) I don`t know if the flask first drains one, then moves on to the second if using two batteries. If that is the case, i will just stick with using the one.

I got another reply from custom mod creations before, with more excuses. This time they are saying, they have run out of stock again due to the chinese holidays, and my order will be shipped next week ! Don`t think so ! I have asked for a full refund.

How much were they charging mate? I saw Tobeco kf4 for sale on a UK site last night for £25.Trouble is, you know how you get around the Internet,can't remember were now.
