Welcome to ecf! What are you looking for advice on? I mean what about those items do you need advice?
Welcome aboard. It would help to know what you need advice about. There are a lot of really smart people on this forum.
Welcome and glad you joined.
If you like your vape gear and have no complaints about it, then it is the perfect kit for you. However, if you find you do not like any aspect, I'm sure someone will be pleased to help guide you to a better vaping solution. The main thing to remember is, part of vaping is all about you the vaper, being in control and the freedom to fix/tailor any aspect of vaping you feel you need to improve upon. You are in control.
The 'Brit one' is a curious e-cig. It's powerful but is limited to tank size by the EU laws.
This means you'll be filling it endlessly until you throw the tank part in the bin.
Maybe you can buy an 'illegal' tank (from China) and save the battery part?

You mean by UK laws, the TPD2 actually doesn't regulate tank size, individual member states do that. Eg here you can sell a 5L bucket with a 510 thread as an atomizer and nobody would care (several other member states also don't care about tank size).
And welcome, gilly
Im still waiting to find out what advice the OP needs. Ive used a smok stick and found it to be fair to middling but nothing to write home about. Thankfully i was just borrowing it for the day, i wouldnt buy one.

I'm a little confused.
I'm from the UK and I was under the impression that the 2ml tank size was an EU regulation.
Then I read this only applies to disposable e-cig or cartridge.
So is this yet another example of the British government gold plating EU regulation?
Or are we just miss- interpreting the regulation.
This is from the TPD directive.
I know that directive and read it multiple times. Thing is that sentence can be interpreted in different ways and in practice it is. Different countries have adopted different interpretations. You live in a country that took that sentence to mean all tanks must be max 2ml. I live in one where the 2ml don't apply to refillable tanks.
Where it breaks down is that "tank" isn't defined properly in the TPD2 text (afaik).

Here's the relevant original text from the German law they made to implement the TPD2 directive
"If disposable e cigarettes and refillable tanks as well as single use cartridges are sold with eliquid containing nicotine they shall not exceed 2ml of capacity. This limit does not apply to refillable tanks sold without eliquid containing nicotine."
So in a sense I was wrong (the definition of tank doesn't seem to matter), the important factor in Germany is if the tank/cartridge was sold with nic liquid. If it's sold empty there is no volume limit here (as there isn't in several other countries as well).
In the end it was the UKs law that limited tank size to 2ml, not the directive itself.
and my translation
