Hello

I have recently bought an Innokin iTaste E cig. It seems ok but I am not impressed with the Menthol juice I got with it. It will run out soon so I would like to purchase some normal tobacco liquid.

I have both the cartomisers and clearmisers but I have no idea what I need for this ecig. Will any liquid do for this model?

There seems to be 101 different suppliers and I really don’t know where to start. Would like something that actually tastes like a normal .... Any ideas where to point me?

Thanks
Barry

Hi again mate... ive spent the last 24 hours actively searching uk sites on the web to buy ejuices from.

from what i gather, the cleromizer should genrally be fine with most vendors e liquids, however those likely to wear them out more quickly or damage them are liquids high in VG rather than PG. as to why I'm not sure, i just read it somewhere, need to do a bit of research on it myself

ive spent a load of money the last 24 hours buying eliquids from different uk vendors, and bookmarking the sites that were generally cheap, had free shipping and plentiful stock of different flavours and strengths. i havnt received them yet, but as i get them over the next couple of days, i will test them out and let you know which ones are really good!

these are the sites that i ordered from...

Vapour Room - UK Electronic Cigarettes Online Store at www.Vapour-Room.com

Welcome - Puffin E-Liquid UK - Premium Grade Gourmet E-Liquid

Eliquid & Ecigarettes UK by Vapourtine

VapingVision - Electronic Cigarettes - Hangsen Eliquid -

UK E Cigarettes ? Electronic Cigarettes UK | Vapourbase


Vapourtine does 5ml size bottles very cheap, good if you wanna try out a load of flavours, similarly vapingvision has a 5 10ml bottle pick n mix deal which works out pretty cheap.

Puffin eliquid has a very nice and professional website, not to expensive and lots of flavours with different options.

have a look, im sure you will find what you want on one of those websites. im sure you can get great eliquids from one of the more amateur websites you see popping around, but personally as a new vaper, id prefer to get my juice from a vendor that has a website that doesnt look like the poster flyer for your local head shop :p

Great post thanks very much. Saw your WTA post earlier. Looks very interesting. Its early days still for me yet so will just have to see how it goes. Big test tomorrow is a really stressful job in Manchester and an overnight stay. This would normally mean me smoking my head off in the car on the way there, smoking like mad after the job and all the way home!

Hi mate, so i got my itaste today, and been puffing on it happily all day. i had a few new juices come also that i tried out. feellife minty lemon which is nice, but my favourite was the dekang grape 18mg, which i think i got from vapour room. not much throat hit, but relly nice flavour and produces a real nice thick vapour.

the minty lemon is good too, but I've only been using it from old cartomizers cos i think the citrus will break my clero's. got a lot more fruity flavours on the way, so i invested in a mini nova tank, and some metal tubes for it, so i can safelyvape all the fruity flavours without worrying about the tank cracking...

incase you interested in getting one for yourself...

i got an ego threaded mini nova from... (lots of sites with a 510 mini nova, but this is the only one i could find with the ego threaded)

Hi Slummy and everyone else.

You seem to be getting on with this vaping kit much better than me. I got some Tobacco liquid today and used it in my second Clearomizer that came with my Innokin iTaste. Its disgusting. I tried in my last Cartomizer and its slightly better but not much. I am still using the menthol that came in the kit and its tollerable. I am using it mainly in the big Clearomizer.

Am I right in saying the Clearomizers that came with the kit can not be taken apart and cleaned so cant be used with different liquids? Does the Vivi nova ego mini tank in your link fit the itaste and is this one that comes to bits so you can clean it and try different liquids?

Im completely confused by the whole thing. I would buy some more cartomizers but they seem to be about £6 for five and dont last five munutes. Two of mine were either duff or I did something wrong. Just tasted all burnt.

To be honest Im having a bad day. I have tried not to smoke real cigs and I have been doing well until today (I have had two so far, which is typical at the moment) but I feel like a bear with sore head! Wife is sick of me and told me to go and have a ...!

I want to persist with this as it is helping but the technology and the plethora of sites, liquids, tanks, clearomizers and other crap is driving me insane!

Somebody just point me in the direction of what I need to buy for my itaste! Please!!!:unsure:

Watching this with interest, as I'm new and totally clueless....

With regards to the last post...I went for something different flavour-wise as i have never smoked menthol ( only enjoyed the hit after cleaning my teeth and rinsing with Listerine!!!)

Can I just wish you a truck load of strength and determination...I know that I'm going to need the same over the next year,as I'm a serious rollup smoker

i'm loving the taste of the virginia liquid 90% and menthol10% i'm starting out on....i would like to get further away from the taste of tobacco though and get off the cig thing totally !

All the very best with your mission, and dont let the neysayers win!!!

Keith

Lol, i know bud its a bit of nightmare with how much stuff is out there...

would be helpful to know which cleromizers your are using? maybe post a picture?

mine are rebuildable which makes it easier to clean, but even the ones that are not rebuildable, you can still clean them by just taking the top off and rinsing in and out with warm water repeatedly until the wicks start to look white again. then you can leave it air dry for a bit and/or attach it to the battery and dry burn (top off) with no e-liquid on and off couple seconds at a time until the coil starts to glow orange which you can see by looking down the small hole at the top.

the e-liquids i have all seem to taste different depending on what which clearo/carto im using. some of the tobacco or very sweet flavours can taste disgusting or sickly in my iclear 16's which seem to really bring out the flavour compared to the cartomizers or clear 10's.

tbh, ive mostly been using menthol and mint flavours, they are the only ones i can vape happily all day without it becoming to sickly or leaving a nasty aftertaste.

i received my mini vivi nova last week, and its been really great so far. nice clean taste, moderate flavour, easy to fill and clean, and the ego threaded version fits really nicely to the itaste. its quite hard to find the mini nova tho with an ego thread, i think i got the last one from esmokeuk, cos they are out of stock now, and i havnt seen them on any other website yet, only the 510 version, which would work with the itaste, it just wont fit as nicely unless you get a cone.

i had some new bodge xl cartomizers free with my itaste, and they had a horrible burnt taste to them, i havnt been botherd to keep using them. im using old cartomizers from my jacvapour kit with an adapter, which seem to work really well.

Apparently the kanger MT3 has some great reviews, and i ordered one today. will let you know if its any good, as its cheaper and better availability then the mini nova.
Kanger EVOD BCC Bottom Coil Changeable Clearomizer

in terms of e liquids, i have found the best producers at a reasonable price, are thos by hangsen, dekang or feel life.

you can get these from lots of sites but i think the cheapest are,
Hangsen Eliquid
Apple e-liquid

also tried some of puffins which seem pretty good quality,
Welcome - Puffin E-Liquid UK - Premium Grade Gourmet E-Liquid

vapourtine and vapestore do 5ml sample packs if you maybe want to try lots of different flavours inexpensively without hurting your wallet.
Eliquid & Ecigarettes UK by Vapourtine
Hangsen E-liquid 5ml Sample Pack (5) - The Vape Store | E-Liquids, Electronic Cigarettes & Vaping Supplies

hope this helps, and you stick to it... i guess part of the fun of it is suppose to be trying out all the different liquids and kit until you find a combo that works for you.

also, ive found the ukvapers forum to be really helpful for information and getting quick replies for UK users. UK Vapers

Finding your everyday e liquid flavour can be an easy journey or a not so easy journey. I'm finding it not so easy but I have picked up some I like on the way. Iv been vaping for two months now. Was doing it a while back for a month but gave up due to all the fiddling about. Four types of e cigarettes later and I'm loving it! Still haven't found the perfect e liquid yet. But trying out new flavours is fun! Except this week when I received six 10ml bottles from coolvape and hated all of them! Never again! But that's just my taste, they were cheap, three 10ml bottles for £6.

My recommendations so far would be jac vapour, they do a lovely menthol. Their e liquid are from dekang so quality e liquid. I am still yet to try some from Vape escape, hear a lot about there's. Loving the raspberry from smokshop, just ordered some more, very cheap.

Just don't give up!

So I got my new SVD today with the IClear30s. I put it together, and it gurgled brutally. Thought ...... Left it at home, and when to dinner. Came home and it runs absolutely perfectly. I did see someone had posted or was on a video that you need to fill the tank and leave it sit for an hour. Maybe that is in the directions... (no reason to read those right?) Tasty flavor, not quite as good as a fresh cardo, but great for long term easy of use. Seems like a great piece of equipment.

I have most of the equipment to make my own juices, but I've gotten some from MtBakerVaper.com and they have been great.

Thanks for the replies epecially the detail from Slummy. My iTaste came with a large Clearomizer, a mini one and 5 cartomizers. I am using the large one mainly with the menthol that came in the kit. I have ordered some DV MENTHOL from Vapour Juice UK as recommended on here so will see how I get on with that. The Virginia tobacco I got was awful.

I found an actual vaping shop on Saturday in Penrith of all places and they were very helpful. Tried several flavours but they were all a bit weak or sickly for me. Bought a couple of clearomizers from them though so will see how I get on with the new menthol when it arrives.
