@Brynglas George, just did a NiFe30 build, and don't know if it is because of what I built it on (Kayfun4), but I tried to get 0.1ohm ended up with 0.18 might have done 1 wrap too many 7/6 v 6/5 with 26g, anyway I have had to lower the temp down to 350F and the wattage down to 30w it was miles too hot at anything higher - so be careful if you haven't already done a build with it.

Thanks Bob,i'll bear that in mind.I haven't tried it yet.
As I said it might be because I used an Infinite KF4, in fact after looking at the device monitor I have put the temp down to 280F - there is no chance of burning the wick :laugh: but even so I am getting good flavour and clouds for a kayfun:

Have heard of them but don't know anything about them, never bought from them, and at that price don't think I would trust them - that's less than 1/2 price, probably a batch of v1s that shipped with the battery connected.

Just reading Bob,you can buy a dual 18650 replacement battery compartment from Hotcig now.And they will replace all V1 lipos, free of charge if they arrive dud.
Just wondering if it's worth a punt.
The place advertising has a european warehouse but can't see it listed on there.

Could be, I know Hotcig have a new DNA200 mod on the books (DX200S) so they may be flogging off the older stock cheaper

I've asked them to mail me.I'll let you know what's said.
The board sells for 75 quid,it's one of those that when a thing appears too cheap, it raises suspicion.:unsure:
Totally agree, there's no such thing as a free lunch (unless you are a beggar at Christmas :laugh:)

Merry Christmas to you all - have a great day! :)


I've heard that this is an excellent brand: 'emotionalstabilitysloth' Unflavoured Nic Great flavor (Scydivasloth on Youtube)
When I first read that I'd thought I typos and you were having a laugh

If you look at nude and give it a go I think (assuming they ship reasonably) you'll be really happy. And frankly with upcoming restrictions verging world wide it's really not going to wind up being a terrible thing to have w buck of nicotine in the fridge.


I've used the eMOW Mega and also the standard size eMOW ever since they appeared - vast improvement on the ones that were around before that. I prefer the original V2 coils rather than the VOCC (for some reason they don't seem as good or long lasting).
I find these tanks good for quite a lot of liquids - I don't use high wattage, so they work fine for me.

I also have some of the old Evod single coil ones (they're very good with the SOCC coils). I find those very good for anything that gunks coils up fast.

I do like the Subtanks and the Silo, and also have a few eLeaf GSAir-M's too.

I have both too. I'm not sure which coils the v2 are ? I think I Ordered two packs of the wrong ones from Fasttech unfortunately. I should have bought the 1.2. I've never truly paid attention to that and I should have.

I felt those tanks worked much better than the nautilus but with the triton mini coils now aspire has the edge again.


Regarding regulation - this is bad for the whole community - is like to know the groups thoughts


I have a real issue with what's happening here with this local Store / well he owns three shops . Every time the subject of eliquid with them Every single employee starts banging on about how they've increased prices because of the pending regulation that's arriving January first and how we are in a transitional period. The thing is there is no Such thing. They raised prices substantially on a product already yielding 100-300% profit and are blaming regulation that doesn't exist. That's bad news for everyone. They're creating this idea that it's already decided eliquid is classified as tobacco and I'm frustrated by that. It adds a lot of confusion to an already confusing discussion - in the states particularly due to state vs federal laws. And it defeats any movement before it starts. People who go there hear this and pass it
On and then a huge section of vapers don't bother with any activism

I actually ended up having a twenty minute conversation when the kid said well we're in transition and prices are going up to fight the regulation and said. Ok. Can you explain the law you're talking about. He struggled and literally it was all fiction. Presumably his bosses have passed the bull.... down the line.

As far as I know The only federal law here is the devices that deliver drugs thing which is being voted on and will likely pass in January but includes a two year transition. There are no regulations for eliquid yet and for people to capitalize on fear and uncertainty of the future of vaping to drive up prices/ profit now is really bad form. It makes me wonder if they have a game
Plan to Get out of the business and want to cash in as much as possible.

How would you go about combatting that? They're three relatively big local Shops from One owner that are systemically convincing all their customers that eliquid prices are doubling and it's already decided that it's going to be that much in tax.

I feel like writing them an email or something appealing to their community obligation. Maybe out them on a local Forum ? Maybe I'm wrong and there's a state law but I've looked and looked and looked. And of all Places Arizona will be one of the last to regulate this activity. But it's not right or good that there doing this and not because its profiteering, because it's defeating vapers and preventing them from even calling representatives and getting opinions out. They all think it's a done deal.

So what to do? If they were a tiny shop with small customer base it wouldn't matter that much. Thanks for The input

I hope everyone had a great Christmas and is enjoying Boxing Day. As they think here - the day when the pugilists are celebrated.

Ah! :laugh: When he used to use flavoured liquid, he posted a lot at the Nicoticket forum, and did a number of reviews at Youtube. He's still around somewhere on the ECF forum :)

I may try a bottle - not desperate for any more I don't think though.

I get these $5.20 Authentic Dual Coil Unit for Kanger Clearomizer (5-Pack) - 1.5ohm at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping They were known as version 2 of the dual coils initially, and often referred to as V2.

I felt those tanks worked much better than the nautilus but with the triton mini coils now aspire has the edge again.
I didn't like the Triton tank.

I think a number of businesses have put prices up, and somehow manage to blame looming legislation - how they get away with it at this stage, I don't know.
You could mention this issue on forums by asking if there is a state law, and why you're asking (mentioning the shop by name) - that way you are innocently asking if what they say is correct because you aren't aware of any state law. It will serve to alert people to the issue without actually accusing the company of misleading or overcharging people, but there's not much else you can do - you don't want to be sued for libel!

I hope everyone had a great Christmas and is enjoying Boxing Day. As they think here - the day when the pugilists are celebrated.
I hope everyone enjoyed it too.
Once Christmas Day is over, I've had enough and want 'normal' back :laugh:
We've been bombarded with ads and pressure to spend for almost 3 months, so apart from a wonderful Christmas lunch, it's become way too commercialised and cash conscious.
