He just needed to adjust the T3, its not always the pv. Also cheaper if you mess a T3 centre post than a Vamo one.

I have to agree there. I have an evod where only about half of the normal amount of ego threads were cut into the coil base (genuine kanger btw). It works fine on one of my ego battery's but won't screw down enough on the other to make contact with the positive pin. Pulling the center pin on the evod head out a little fix's the problem.

FT carries 3 or 4 brands of liquid. I've only tried the Dekang Blueberry and I like it as an ADV. Other people here swear by their Liqua brand. Other people are generally very wary of Chinese-manufactured liquids.
My take on that: here in Israel the only available kinds of eliquids are of Chinese manufacture. That's what there is, period. I can compare my one bottle of Dekang, (30 ml, about $3.60, don't remember) with the 3 joyetech liquids I found (30 ml, $20 each here !!!!) and like the Dekang better, because it's lighter and fruitier. I'm leery of ordering more ONLY because it's the kind of product our Customs will seize and/or make us get Health Ministry authorizations for.


Can you get Nic and mix ejuice yourself in your country?

I've pushed the button enough times to start worrying about wearing the button out :) It could just be a dud. At $7 and change, I'm sure they get a dud every now and again. It would be sweet if I can get it to work. The cord length is an issue but that is on me as it is what they say it is. I just didn't think about how short that really is in practical use.

The only thing I can suggest from my experience is to let the battery charge for 8 hours, and then try to turn it on again. If it is a completely empty battery, nothing will work yet. In any case, even if I am totally off the mark, it wouldn't hurt it to try! Use a USB wall charger for more certitude that it isn't a USB port problem.

The vivi novas - work like vivi novas, no problem. However, on the slim, my boyfriend was vaping in bed and got liquid in his mouth because he tilted it upside down. I had no leaking issues with the 3.5 kit, but the 2.0 single leaked when it was upside down, but it was probably from gravity/pulling on the tip. I'll chalk it up to human error as there have been no other issues.

That sounds like working like a Vivi Nova to me. My Visions is always spitting at me. Different drip tips may help. I have a metal one that cured most of my issues by being more open and able to drain (of course you'd get a drink if you tip it upside down and it was flooded) and a plastic one that cure it by being less open.


I thought I read a couple pages back links weren't good to post idk lol.

I think that was a typical, "These low low prices are destroying vaping as we know it." type post.

He just needed to adjust the T3, its not always the pv. Also cheaper if you mess a T3 centre post than a Vamo one.

There are T3 issues posted about Vamo there too (if I remember right that has been the cause of some of the LOΩ issues but I don't have a t3 so haven't paid attention).

Actually, like New Zealand, it is illegal to sell nicotine liquid or nicotine-containing e-cigs openly here, and a friend of mine had her order of White Cloud seized at Customs. She was supposed to have authorization from the Ministry of Health, which of course she couldn't get.

I have found some trustworthy sources, however, and another friend has just brought me back some flavourless liquid from Europe, to flavour or stretch other kinds. I did get the bottle of nice Dekang from FT through the post, and was very relieved that it hadn't been noticed.

I admit I have been stock-piling, and the fact that I have a supply for a few months, and even a nice but small variety of flavours, has allowed me to calm down and feel more secure that I won't ever have to go back to cigarettes!

How long does it normally take for fasttech to process and ship an order? I placed one and paid for it 2 days ago, an it has been sitting in in shipped status since about 30 minutes after I paid for it. I realize it may take longer for back ordered items but as far as I can tell that isn't going to be the case... I'm anxious to try out my new goodies!

Flavoring should be perfectly legal as the are used for other things like food. I feel for you that your government will not allow a safer ecig. I assume its fine to smoke regular cigarettes?

Below the price of an item you should see a shipping time notice. My first order had an item that said ships in 3 days and it shipped in 3 days. My second order had one that said ships in 4 days and it shipped in 4 business days (6 days adding in the weekend on this one). Seems like anything not lissed as In stock there is out of stock and you wait untill they get more in. Sometimes there are delays, If it goes much over what the item says it ships in send them an email asking. I know they have had a lot of delays on Inoken producs and the KTS lately.

Yes, buying flavouring is fine, and |I have some really nice Cherry-Apple right now (Apple pre-made base at 18mg from Joyetech and Cherry flavouring) which was fun to make and is delicious if I do say so myself...

I think at least 25% of us, or more, smoke here, and apparently smoking bans in restaurants etc., were especially put into place so as not to alienate the North American tourists...Prices went up between 25 and 33% about a month ago as a tax-grubbing measure, and that is what triggered my rebellion and subsequent total adoption of vaping!

I believe that a study of electronic cigarettes is being carried out right now here, but the call for opinions closed before I had even heard of vaping, so I wouldn't have been much help to the cause.

Same ban here, ecigs were sold legally in pharmacies for a while but without nicotine (a joke), shortly after banned and pulled completely out of the shelves. Nowadays they're persecuted criminally like dope dealers... B&M stores are a secret...

Guys, anybody bought the iGo double coil? can it be used as a single coil too? $6.14 V5 Electronic Cigarette Round Mouth Detachable Dripping Atomizer - 1.0

Afaik it can be used with 1 coil, i'm debating on adding this to my next order or stop ordering crap for a while :p

[rant]
Don't get me started on bans, here we have a decree made by our last president. He's an oncologist and "he wants to take care" of everyone that's why he put a ban on ecigs and a raging tax on analogs...

I have had anything from 6hrs to 6days. Do your best to forget your order, then when that fails, hit refresh on the tracking website at intervals of no longer than 15 minutes.

For those that have thus machine oil on their EVODS.. how have you successfully cleaned then? I referred a friend to get the evod set and she said she tasted chemicals after 2 days of use.

For those posting reviews and photos. . A huge thank you!
Maybe mine didn't have them on, I just used them and the taste was fine after 4 drags

Remember that long ago we were one country... our people are one, think the same... although Battle didn't ;)

Crap... I want to desmistify dripping. I'm not sure if a real iGo L or that one... It has the good things the iGo doesn't, like the holes in posts, and driptip included. I wonder if it has two holes for coils or just one... As long as you're using it it's not crap...

i am pretty confidant that machine oil do not mix easily with eliquid as i have to shake a lot for mixing PG and VG itself
i think they do not get mixed that easily if at all there is machine oil.
as far as the chemical taste i am sure that its coming from coil or the wick.
give it good dry burn before filling them and make sure that you don't pop the coil.:)

Edit:dry burn the flavor wicks also.
