    I got mine from fasttech. I had to play a "game". Apparently, because these are authentic Aspire coils, I couldn't use PayPal directly to purchase (it wanted a real live credit card as it does with other Aspire products???) So, I ordered something about the same price via PayPal; immediately cancelled; then used the credit to pay for the coils. (Was able to use the CNY discount available at that time)

    Google Triton Mini Replacement Coils. There are some Stateside, if you prefer. (VapeNW and VaporDNA at least....)

    JK and Pokes - FYI, running the first Clapton this morning. I made sure to prime well :facepalm: and then started around 8.5W. Nudged from there to about 11-ish watts (which is how I'd normally run a 1.8Ω Nauti coil) Maybe I'm not completely awake yet, but I think the flavor is a bit cleaner than with the normal BVC coils. Nauti Mini is now sitting atop Glovari.

    Krisma - I'm not noticing any "ramp-up" time needed to get to flavor.

    IMHO, these are nice coils as well. Don't "rush" them (I'm babying them a bit more than I would normal Nauti BVCs). I am NOT displeased.
    For what it's worth, the standard Triton 1.8ohm coils seem to work best at higher wattages than what you would expect. No experience with the Triton mini coils so don't know if the same holds true, but just might be worth experimenting going even higher just to see.

    I'm going to nudge the 1.8 clapton up a bit more, just to see how it plays. I don't want to burn it (blech - already did that to one of my Ni coils!)

    On another note....

    I'm sure all or most of you saw the article on Spinfuel about the Chinese ban of all ecig exports, yes?

    And I'm sure most recognized it as a (impoverished? cruel? funny? eye-opening?) April Fools joke?

    Spinfuel's response and explanation:

    The Great Vape Hoax of 2016 - Spinfuel The Art of Vaping


    Your thoughts?

    Seems to have generated more outrage over the "joke", at least at this time, than to have generated any activism.

    Isn't that always the case, for most? Fear, outrage, and inaction? :-x

    Tanks for the update, Ding :) Keep us posted.
    I fried the coil the first time I tried my new CF4/Nauti Mini (I'm relieved to learn I'm not the first to do so). Twas the first time I'd had a VV/VW in my inept little hand; I was fiddling with the buttons and was upping the wattage without realizing it. Oops. Haven't done that again. Yet...:unsure:

    I think the shock value, although effective for those already active in the political process, is lost on those who are still apathetic in spite of all the publicity in the community. Thus all the outrage & butthurt. They are more upset about the fact that it wasn't true than they were the day before when they thought it was true. So now they slump back on their stool at their local b&m & fog it up & get their silly kicks. Those complaining about the hoax are still willfully unstirred by looming regulations & does realize that the hoax may be truth tommorrow.

    Pen/stick form is key. Does anyone have these? I would like to see some comparison photos.

    sent from my Galaxy Note 5
    I dont have my Halo kit anymore as I passed it forward to a smoker. But the G6 kit is really compact and they are about 4 inches long assembled and very stealthy. Easily hid in your hand for a women or man. Refilled with 18mg to 24mg liquid it is a thrifty vape and comes with plenty of spares.

    I recommend highly. I wish I still had the kit now I could use it at work as I need something that produces less vapor.

    Welp, aren't YOU a sweetheart! And yes, that would have worked. Sadly, pufZ, "Sorry, the following item is currently out of stock: Innokin iTaste VV 3.0 Express Kit (acrylic box) - Chamelon"

    GRRR!

    SCUSE ME?? flakes, if you're serious, please let me know? My fave VV3 is about to leave the planet and I so want another. I can't find them in stock for even close to a reasonable price, if at all.

    In fact, I even put up a Want To Buy for one! I want a chameleon VV3. Help?

    No chameleons in this bunch but I bought one this year and will try to find where I got it from.
