needs some advise on new products

[mushy256]

Hi
I've been a heavy smoker for 21 years and i'm loving vaping, its the only thing that has actually taken me away from analogues (unless i'm drinking then i often have a analogue)
i'm currently using a greensmoke automatic battery with refill cartomisers and also have a V2cigs batt using carts aswell..
i'm not enjoying the battery life out of these and find the batteries failing when i need them most, i would consider myself a heavy vaper so i want to move away from these and get either a drip or tank system with a manual bigger battery, as i have been reading that these are much better at producing higher volumes of vapor and a far better tasting vapor. (flavor and TH is a big thing for me)
i also don't like the burnt taste when the cartomisers start to empty and actually think the stuffing in the cart might be releasing toxic fumes when they are heated).
im currently looking at some different models but i am unsure as how they would perform and would like some advise from a seasoned vaper.

1st one is

Sedansa Web Shop - SC600 Sedansa LEA Deluxe double Tank Capacity 0.8ml

2nd one is, (would be buying the drip tips separate)

Firebrand's Diablo Falcon Cartomizer Elite Kit

3rd one is

E-Power Electronic Cigarette - 14650 - Brushed Steel — UK-Eliquid

with this addon

Clearomiser - Edition 2 Revision 5 XL — UK-Eliquid

and help, advise or recommendations would be greatly appreciated, shipping cost is a big issue as i live in the UK.
look forward to meet and hearing from you guys

...first let me point you to Liberty Flights as a UK vendor for your needs...highly thought of around here...the Falcon you list is an eGo clone, LF carries real eGos and the really good eGo clone known as the Riva510...these units should give you 6r7+hrs of steady vaping...the E-Powers(10+-hr batts) have non proprietary batts and the replacements are about half to 2/3rds cheaper...However, many problems have been reported about switch problems with these units but they are well liked by those without switch problems(or even with)...it's kinda hit or miss with them...good luck on your search and Happy Vaping

You might want to ask over at the ukvapers forum too. UK Vapers

Personally i would choose the e-power. It is a nice device for the price that they get sold for.

The advice you received about Liberty Flights and the Riva is sound.

Cartos can dry out and give you nasty taste. Once you use them for a while, you develop a sense of when they are close to empty and it's best to top them off when the taste begins to wane.

+1 for Liberty Flights and the Ego or Riva 510 kit. E-Liquid and Electronic Cigarette Shop - Category Listings

Throw in some Boge 2.0 ohm cartomizers and some juice and you are set.

There have been reports of Riva and Ego batteries failing in a short period of time. Good models overall, however.

The E-Power is in the same category as the Riva but with much better batteries. And unlike the Riva/Ego batteries that cost $14-$20 each, E-Power batteries are only around $4 and they last 5 times longer than Riva batteries.

Liberty Flights also sells the E-Power:

Electronic Cigarette - Starter Kits - E-Power

wow thx guys i didnt even know about the uk supplier liberty flights (does sound like a airline ticket site tho)
well i think my mind may well be made up now with getting the e-power and a tank system for it. im gutted i didnt put more research into this before buying my green smoke batts and the v2 cig batt.. cost me over £150 for the 3 with carts.. ouch!!!
well we learn from our mistakes i suppose..

E-power 14650 from LF has treated me quite well so far. Decent PV for the price and great price for replacement batts. Only complaint so far is that it does not stand up straight on a flat surface. I can deal with that

 

[mushy256]

haha thats a minor complaint i sure as hell can deal with too..
just ordered it now so its the sit and waiting game..
still cant believe the prices on liberty flights website.. i really am kicking myself at what i have spent on these half arsed kr8 batts

...don't kick too hard, the same happens too often and is a common feeling for many...when they find out how badly they were gouged for an inferior product.............

I have tried 3 different brands of e-cigs (blu, efox and now volcano), Volcano are by far the best brand that I have tried and have several friends who also use the volcano.
I have the Inferno Tankomizer which has 2 batteries, a 650 and a 1000, so the battery life is out of this world. i love the new tank system where you can just fill a tank and click it into the atomizer and go about your day without worrying about running out of juice or battery power.
Its great! If you are looking to try a new brand of e-cig you should definately try Volcano.

 

[UntamedRose]

Just so everyone knows...valcano tankomizers, are just branded eGo T's. No need to pay for the cool name.

 

[mushy256]

do the tanks actually use all the juice you put in them or do they struggle when they get to a certain level

 

[Leothwyn]

The wick is at the bottom of the tank, so as long as there's a little juice down there it will still work. To me, the tanks seem to give a weaker hit (than cartos) and with some juices they have wicking problems and give burnt tasting hits. You can get cartos that hold more liquid, so there's less messing around with topping off and less chance of dry hits. The dual coils hold 1.8ml (I think), and there's an ego mega dual coil that holds 3ml..

 

[mushy256]

i'll try with the carts that come with it and get myself one tank and see what suites me best. again peeps thx for your advise.
amazing community here

 

[Leothwyn]

Not trying to be a cartomizer salesman here or anything... but when you say that you'll try the carts that come with it, do you mean the atomizer and cartridge? Those things suck IMO. A good cartomizer is a much better experience (at least for me).

I think there isn't much I can add to your questions but I would like to suggest that you get yourself some higher nicotine ejuice for when you are out drinking. It might help you from craving a cigarette.

Just to add a tidbit to go along with tmcase's advice. I really enjoy the spice flavors when I'm drinking; things like cinnamon (Apple Pie to be precise), mint (Mint Chocolate Chip) and clove seem to go really well with alcohol.
