Hi guys. My name is Steve and I've been vaping for about 3 months now. I'm not the richest guy in the world so I've only got myself a 30W Eleaf iStick and kangertech sub tank mini. vaping it at 30W. Loving it! Recently got the fusion vapour prime Valhalla flavour. Wow. It's soooooooo good. Had to buy a pack of vertical coils too haha anyway I'm obviously new and I've been perusing these forums for about a month and finally decided to register. So many intelligent and wise people on here.

Hello and welcome to the forum @SteveF90. Glad to have you here!

Here are some UK related links for you to explore:

1. UK Forum
2. UK and Ireland Suppliers
3. All About E-Cigarettes UK - Vendors List + Discount Codes

Have not tried the vertical coils yet but I have save this in my database for future reference.

Kangertech suggested operating range for their OCC coils.

Horizontal OCC Coils
0.5 Ω coils - 15 watts to 30 watts.
1.2 Ω coils - 12 watts to 25 watts.

Vertical OCC Coils
0.2Ω coils - x watts to 80 watts (Mike likes 60-65 watts)
0.5Ω coils - 15 watts to 60 watts
1.2Ω coils - 10 watts to 26 watts
1.5Ω coils - 10 watts to 26 watts

Thanks guys!. Thanks for the info Susan-s, I haven't managed to find .2ohm coils yet. I had to get vertical coils as the horizontal ones are only recommended at a maximum of 30W whereas vertical are up to 60W. I chain vape so much my horizontal coil went black hahaha I'll hit up those links later thinking about switching the iStick for a 100W Siegeli box. Not sure yet though

The iStick 100 watt can be found in the US for around $35-$40.

 

[SteveF90]

Eleaf do a 100W???? Wow. I had no idea. Will probably have to wait though since I'm in the UK

Hey! Don't knock your gear. It's working for you and that's a big win! Welcome to ECF.

 

[SteveF90]

Yeah wow thanks. I was thinking of switching to a rda. But wasn't too sure. Apparently they don't play too nice with the 30W iStick but a 100W iStick should work perfectly

Thanks lol interestingly I wanted the kangertech sub box mini but they were out of batteries so I went for the Eleaf

Welcome, Kanger has really stepped up their game in the last yr or so. I used a Mini Protank 2 for a long while and was very happy with my vape. If you are thinking of going to rda's you have a decision to make about what direction you want to go, mechanical or regulated mods. I choose mech, I use a Reo Grand, I am loving it! I also Diy my own ejuice, unflavoured Nic, so I make both my own coils and ejuice and the cost for vaping is less than a coffee per week. Good luck on your own journey, ask a lot of questions we are here to help.

Yeah. I actually saw a really nice wooden box with grooves for your fingers. If I find it I'll post it. I've already tried it so I know it's good. Was about £160. Required 2 18650mAh batteries. Works nice with a dripper and vanilla, mmmmmmmm.

Edit* this kinda looks like it but I don't remember it having "Tesla" written on the side like that. It was one of those, starts off at 150W then drops as the batteries charge decreases.
