Yes thats what is confusing me Trish, on the gearbest pics i don`t see the bulb at all, but on the FT pics, as you say, it sticks up prominent, and that is what puts me off ( easily broke ) but if it is recessed, i could just ignore it.
Just looking again at the GB pics, and the one where it is on it`s side, i can see the bulb sticking out, but on the upright pics, there is no sign of it ! wonder if it can just be removed ?

I thought the same at GB until I looked at the pictures of the black one:Kangxin Mini VF 50W Mod KX-50D Chip Variable Wattage Mini Box Mod Temperature Protection VW Mod-50 and Free Shipping| GearBest.com
all the others appear to have it recessed.

Ah - I see you've found that :)

Ah well i suppose i better order one then :laugh:
Such a drag having to do these things :rolleyes:

I held off getting the Ni coils until the Green one looked imminent - there's still no guarantee it will reach despatch stage, but perhaps I'd better get some of those coils ordered.
There was another make/model some time back, supposedly in 4 colours but only two ever reached the shops.

....I'm still very tempted by the grey one too ...but also saw another grey one - is it the same as the one you just ordered?

I managed to order some Raspberry Ripple and some Devon cream
This is the first time I've made some of the Raspberry Ripple (10ml) - used the same slightly generous 20% as with Trifle, but it hasn't much taste after two days, whereas the 30ml trifle I made the same day tastes as good as the 10ml I made first.
Do you find the RR needs a few ml extra flavour?

Just ordered the VF mini :) I was looking at the grey Zero myself Trish, but the ETA moved from in stock, to 7 days, so i went for the black one. I like the satin finish on that one ! Aye, start stocking up with them NI coils now. :thumb:

FREE JUICE
(almost)
Ahem, sorry about that, thought I'd grab everyone's attentions.

I'm clearing out vape gear I don't use anymore and if anyone wants any of the following then I'd be happy to send it to you for the cost of the shipping. I'll indicate what I thought of them, now they are all too high nic for me so I thought it was worth posting just in case. None of these are fantastic and up there with our favourite chefs juices etc so when I say they were alright or OK I mean they are vapeable.

EDIT: Note I don't like strong tobacco juices.

Hangsen: (High PG I think)
RY4 12mg 20ml (This one was alright)
Blueberry 11mg 30ml (Unopened, this was ok)
Juicy Peach 16mg 10ml (This was ok)
Coffee 11mg 10ml (Not terrible but not that good)
Red cola 11mg 10ml (Ok, tastes like flat coke)
Lemon Limed 11mg 10ml (Not great)
Coconut 6mg 10ml (kinda like coconut with weird aftertaste)
Golden Tree 11mg 10ml (tobacco, too strong for my taste)
Granny Smith 11mg 10ml (not great)
555 11mg 10ml (nutty tobacco, too strong for my taste)
HS Golden Tobacco AKA RY6 (this tastes like tar and chewing burnt wood)

Dekang: (High PG I think)
Menthol 6mg 5ml (Ok, straightforward menthol)
Raspberry 12mg 5ml (Ok, tasted more like strawberry to me but was an ok sweet fruity flavour)

Simply E Liquid: (50/50 I think)
Virginia 11mg 15ml (Ok, not too strong a tobacco)
Desert 18mg 5ml (Stronger tobacco but not bad)
Ice Menthol Mojito 11mg 5ml (This was good actually)

I personally find both the RR and Trifle taste better mixed at 23% and left to steep for a week,it will turn slightly pink.
It's not a overpowering taste but on par with the trifle.

I just ordered some coils from FT - got all the types I use (except the Air ones) plus the Ni ones.

OK - odd that the trifle tastes fine but the raspberry a bit weak ..perhaps all it needs is a few more days than the trifle. If it's still weak after a few days, I'll add a little more! :) I didn't measure too precisely with the flavouring, but it was pretty close to around 22% on the trife, perhaps slightly less with the raspberry as I'd not used it before.

Bob, is the torch optional ? can the bulb be removed ?

Pass, but you don't have to use it, from what I can gather it works through the button presses x number of presses to switch it on/off.

Not interested in that Zero though adjustable copper 510, one slip of the screwdriver and your 510 is knackered (copper is not that hard)

I just saw a red one!:SIGELEI MINI 30W BOX MOD - Mods ...apart from a sticky button the reviews are OK, especially at FT - are they any good?
This shows the red one - Sigelei Mini 30W Box Mod + Free 18650 Battery | Grey Haze ECig Store

Yes a day or so ago, the grey ones were showing as in stock at FT, as was the black one i ordered earlier ! Now that one is showing 7 days :laugh: We`ll see !
I`ve got a sigelei 100+ trish, and it has been great with no issues, but can`t comment on the MIni.

As long as the bulb isn`t protruding, i don`t care Bob, as i won`t be using it :laugh: My Hana 30 has the copper 510, as has mine and your VF and you would have to be very clumsy, and heavy handed to Knacker it ! Never had any problems at all :)

I always open to trying cheap juice you should know me by now.:thumbs:

£3 to send it and the lot is yours mate (don't suppose I'll be able to get it all in "large letter" size or whatever it is).

Don't have one but watched at least 1 review (see below) and I believe they are meant to be fine.
Small and solid. Same chip as in the IPV mini v1. Can step down with PWM but uses flat DC-DC signal when it is able to.
