I ordered some new stuff from vapeescape.co.uk and it finally arrived! Honestly the delivery speed this time was atrocious compared to last time, I spent too many days waiting anxiously for a package that should arrive at any moment, but never mind.

I ordered a few bits, the main parts being a mini nova and an ego twist 1000mah. The twist is HUGE, it's so long compared to the Riva. If anyone wants something discrete I'd advise going for a smaller model. If you're looking for a good vape though, these two are a match made in heaven. I haven't tried any of the £150+ batteries and things to compare but for the price these are great.

I loaded up my mini nova with GY-4 flavour and the standard atomiser, put it all together and adjusted the voltage until I got the perfect hit which for me is about 4.0. I also it all in stainless steel with a matching plinth and a chrome tip and it looks really sleek! My only issue is that the chrome tip doesn't fit perfectly and it's a little loose. Any way to fix this? It's also cold when it touches your lips but I'm just an idiot for not clocking on to the obvious.

Either way I'm very satisfied with the new stuff! My girlfriend got a new colourful ego battery too. We're both very happy vapers today :)

Sida, as posted on another thread, vape escape were moving premises last weekend & added to that, Jason posted on AAE-C UK that there had been problems with their local Royal Mail sorting office.

As for the drip tip not fitting, you don't just push them in like you would do on a carto, they have a small crew thread so you need to screw them in.

Can't beat a lovely Vapemail delivery to brighten up a winter's day Sida. :D

The post, round here anyway is very variable . . . 1st Class can be more like 3rd or 4th Class!

I'm assuming you ordered the 1000mAH Twist, as that is indeed like a Magician's wand, the 900 is a little more
discreet . . . although I use a 650mAH for work as it slips into my pocket nicely. They are a brilliant introduction
to VV vaping, whatever the size though. :)

Drip Tips can vary in size, as does what you want to use them on . . . you could either swap the O ring out for
one a little larger, or use some of that plumbers type tape to take up the wobble.

Delighted to hear you're both enjoying your delivery though, happy vaping to you. :vapor:

Glad you're happy and got your stuff.
At the end of the day I think all should remember that it's not Jason sat in the van delivering any of our orders, he has to reply on the Royal mail to work to their full potential, usually I found the orders from VE to be very quick in getting to me, but again, this has to do with Royal mail services working 100%

Ah ok. A little warning on their website would have been nice though, specifically stayed at home multiple days to make sure I wouldn't miss the post.

I mean the drip tip on the mini nova, it doesn't have a screw (or at least mine doesn't), I just need to get the fit a bit more snug.

Yep the 1000mah. I knew it was big from pictures but they really didn't do it justice xD I have a Riva battery as my spare though so if I need something smaller for something I'll use that. I've pretty much found the flavour that I love so I won't actually be messing with the voltage so much but it'll be good for when I decide to try more.

I'll see what I can do. I'll probably have to find another o ring though because there doesn't seem to be much room to add tape or anything.

Thanks :)

Yeah I totally understand that. If their sorting office is having an issue then it's not their fault and I'm not really blaming them for it, but a little notice on the site would help for those who have to adjust their timetables to be available when the delivery arrives.

I think the little handwritten "thank you" on the receipt is what made me order from there again :D

In all fairness, he did post a message on the site stating they were moving shop :)

As for the drip tip, you're correct...the mini nova is a push fit with no thread. As has been mentioned, any plumbing/hardware shop should have stock of O rings. Alternatively, if your other drip tips fit fine, I'd consider sending the new one back as it's clearly not been machined well.

It did, but it also specifically said that it won't effect online orders in any way. It doesn't matter, all is fine now.

Is that what it is? That it wasn't machined correctly? I thought different versions are just generally different in size.
