    Don't know and can't recommend any yet - just got a couple of pod devices/systems and NEED to test them out . . . :(





    Well - Long Story Short, especially with all the variations of what happened . . . Although I started over 8 years ago with "Cig-a-likes" (3.7 Volt batteries w/808 cartomizers); then 1100 mAh batteries w/ a variety of different style tanks, and then moved onto different types of MODs, including the appropriate tanks (both w/cartomizers/coils) after awhile . . . Today, I am actually still using the Innokin T18 & T22 w/the Prism Tanks that I got a couple of years ago. Matter of fact, a few months ago - I am no longer a dual user, been using just the T18 & T22 equally in rotation all day. Just Sayin' . . . ;)


    .

    Me three ;) You were one of the first people I talked with when I joined ECF 14 months
    ago. And it was in the Innokin thread ;)

    I'm so glad to read that you were finally able to become a single user vaper :thumb::wub:

    My last pod device.. Until tomorrow approximately...

    The tank / coil of the Flint is excellent. Only for a matter of weight, it replaced the Biip...

    if she starts with a refillable pod device because it is mych simpler. And which refillable pod device would you recommend?

    Hi Bea...How about a Justfog Minifit

    About the size of a USB flash drive...one of the few Constant Voltage Pods (most Pods are Direct Voltage where the voltage decreases as the battery drops)...produces a quite satisfying MTL experience...easily refillable pod...is $10-$12...

    Hey fellow TP’ers, long time no see. I completed my move back to the motherland, in London now. Finally settled enough to do more than vape whatever is handy.

    So I’m surprising myself going through “old gear” but I’m running into a problem or two.

    12mg is hard to get here at any reasonable price, and limited options exist when it’s found. Big bottles are only sold with no nicotine (they add a freee shot to mix after purchase and make 3mg, thanks tpd [emoji849]) and local shops in Greenwich are about £.50 a ml ($.60-65) for the small bottles, which is absurdly priced to me.

    Anything made form salts here seems to carry a premium price. So I’m considering getting some 100mg base to dilute for flavourless 48 mg pod type use as well as making my own liquid, but I need to discern if we can actually get it shipped it without seizure. I struggle to believe it’s the case that importing 500 ml of juice I like from the USA is cheaper than buying form Europe, considering the massive shipping costs and import tax, surely there are options here?

    Have any of you been successful importing base nicotine at around 100 mg/ml, or has it been taken so the queen can presumably use it?

    Second off I need to find some 14500 and 18500 batteries that are reputable. In the USA there are a lot of dedicated battery sites with good brand / well reviewed batteries. The only option I’ve found here is eBay with supposed efest, and I don’t know if they’re suitable or any good. Or where to go for decent batteries in the uk for my piccoloid and wae short mode. Any suggestions?

    In general any recommendations for some suppliers would be appreciated, Google isn’t being helpful. Eco vape changed to horrible and then discontinued my marathon milkshake and the rest of their flavours seem meh to me. I can’t find decent British stuff so far, despite trying.

    Also what’s that German wire site again? I ordered previously in the USA, but can’t recall.

    Thanks for any help and guidance, and I will be back around with more regularity now!

    Good to “see” you all!

    What did you start with, and why? Just for discussion's sake.
    Halo G6. I started because nicotine is supposed to help mitigate brain nonsense stemming from MS. I also didn't want to keep smoking packs of cigarettes here and there. Plus nicotine perks me up, which is welcome.

    @h00ligan
    I can't help with any of your EU questions, but many of us wondered and hoped you were well. Glad.

    @h00ligan - we conjured you, but you took some time to heed the psychic hello. ;)

    Seriously.

    Good to see you back againe. (<--- best accent)

    Thanks guys! Conjured!

    Still waiting for the medical stuff to be finally over but the move is good and I’m happy to be back. I hope you have been well and I hope to be around more now. I’m way behind !

    Hi folks!

    Apparently, I can't be an "advanced vaper", since I don't build coils. I have Parkinson's, and while I definitely could build coils, I don't because it would take me forever. It takes me long enough to change coil heads in drop-in tanks.

    But with my mostly low power equipment, and DC tanks, I'm still able to dial in the vape I want on all of these setups and more.

    So, what say you? Can I at least lay claim to the title "Expert Tootle Puffer"? Many of you reading this qualify yourselves, and are more than qualified to make an evaluation of my tootle puffing, in my case, cool, dense vapor, taken in mostly in long 3-9 second tokes. At 7-15W. Sometimes I'll puff on a warmer vape, but usually I slam cool vapor until I have to stop, or I'll get sick. I'm currently cutting down from 22mg to 20mg.

    Expert or not, I'll always be proud to say "I'm a Tootle Puffer, dammit!"

    It sounds to me like you are an expert in Tootle Puffing, or Turtle Fluffing, or Poodle Stuffing, or what ever you want to call it. :thumbs:

    You are qualified as an advanced vaper. More advanced than most folks. :D
