Sway Have you seen this?

Looks fking ace!
Yes... It's effectively my perfect mod. Regulated, internal tank, temp control, large batt capacity, interchangeable atties. Sublime.

However, cannot figure out how to actually buy the fking thing. Pisses me off more than anything about vaping - the endless stupid tossy facebook 'lists' and secret signups (there have been a couple of rebuildable atties for the billet box, but only those in the 'club' were able to get them, and now they're going for stupid money). Just make them, and post them up online for purchase. Could even have one of those fancy online shops that cost about a fiver to setup.

It's like some fking clique instead of actually making any money. Especially when everything is cnc'd so capacity should just not be an issue. The one I can forgive is the chap who makes the Mor Crann etc. - the Rialu he's designed is stupidly complex to make, and contains wood. He's been a top bloke via facebook in terms of communication - even though it's anyone's guess when the next batch are gonna be made.

Like the look of the Yihi, better than the Fisher Price vaporshark, however the big statement at the top 'temp control is not guaranteed to work at all times' essentially means there's no warranty. Sod that.

Rant over - VEA I noticed you're on the list for the Morgan SS - I'll be there too, be good to say hello...
It looks from the site that you have to sign up to the list from there, a which point they will message you and tell you if there any available. There was a guy on reddit who got hold of one. Looks ace, I actually want it, think it could be the perfect do anything device for me.

I'm planning on going yeah, been wanting to go to Morgan for ages so though it would be rude not to.

Sway, I think when they say temp control not available at all times is that it only works with ni200 coils, put a standard kanthal coil on and it can't do temp control - dna40 is the same. Yet to see anything other than positive reviews for the yihi.

Like you, I'm looking for something with great build quality and integrated tank; temp control would be nice, but I rarely get dry hits, so less of a concern for me. Pity the Gizmo 2 is 18500 and not 18650, would make it a more usable day to day device.
Yup, from what I have read it simply means that if you don't use the ni200 wire then temp control (it's not really control, it's more limiting) won't work.

Got an SMPL clone in from Fasttech today - my first mechanical mod, and I wanted something that would be as small as possible with my Derringer or Marquis for posh duties like weddings etc, instead of lumping my box mod about.

Love it, it's proper tiny for 18650 sized - time to save up for originals.

Looks nice Steve, how's the fire button on this one?

I haven't touched my mechs for a good 6 months now. I think I'll charge some batteries up tomorrow and bring the Paps to work for a change smile

It's good Dave, wee bit crunchy to begin with but hasn't failed to fire or caused any bother. Got a 0.5 ohm dual build in the Derringer and it's a smashing vape, really smooth power delivery. Marquis needs a lower res build than the 0.8 that's in it to get the best out of it.

First time visitor to this thread (will read the whole thing at some point!)

After 13 years, I decided to try and ditch the cigs on NYE. I had tried a couple of the cheap vape stater kits in the past but never lasted more than a week or so. I still had one handy so switched to that to begin with.

Anyvape VV Stick with an Aspire ETS Tank using any eliquid I could get my hands on:



Next up was a Vision Spinner II VV Stick using the ETS, just a small power upgrade:



Then came my eleaf Istick20w with an Aspire Nautilus tank. This was a massive upgrade on the small starter kits:



I then stopped using the Nautilus after a friend told me the Kanger protank Mini (V3) were a lot better for flavour production and he wasn't wrong!





Was buying my stuff from a company called no1ejuice and they stock a flavour brand 'Gemini' which looked great so I got the lot to try them out:



I wanted to start sub-ohming so last week I got an eleaf iStick 50w and a Kanger Subtank Mini to go with it. Running at 0.5ohms. Also got some 'Suicide Bunny Mothers Milk' ejuice which is incredible.







And my newest purchase was this Little Boy RDA (Clone) and I got some 26g kanthal and Organic Cotton to start building my own coils:







Cloud shot from the RDA:



Been cig free for 105 days now so pretty pleased with how it's going smile

Anyone found a good supplier of 100% VG liquid? I've been using Paradise Vape but it can be a bit lumpy so I'm looking for an alternative.

EcigWizard supply 100% liquid and base nicotine but I've never made my own so I'd also need to find a source of flavour.

I've not tired their VG stuff but Vampire vape juices are great. http://www.vampirevape.co.uk/product/vguice-100-vg...

@Sag1

Try one of Cammys coils from UKV with the mini protank 3. Much better than the stock heads....you'll save a bundle aswell vs buying new coils all the time smile

Is that the Marquis in the pic? Looks similar to the Kayfun?

Now your getting into rebuildables wink give the Rose V2 a go, best RTA I've had to date. Flavours really something else smile

Bit of a pain to build the first few times (sent me loopy to be fair!!) but once you get the hang of it it's excellent.

The tank is a Lemo, top dripper is a Derringer and bottom is the Marquis - best device I've tried for flavour to date.

I'll take a look at this then Steve.

I've been using the Melow this week which is ok, not sure if I prefer this or the Atlantis? The Horizon Arctic tank sounds a beast & handles a lot of power, might give that a go payday.

These new sub ohm tanks have come on loads in the last few months!!

I've got to say the sub tank mini is so good! Mines been flawless, only playing up when I've rebuilt the coils and re wicked hehe

Why all of a sudden do I say this? Well I just got a goblin rta which is good, is it as good as a sub tank I'm not sure, yes it will take more power but do I need it? The sub tank blows some clouds! Tastes great, doesn't leak, can buy coils or rebuild them, holds a bit of liquid.

I will say I haven't perfected the build on the goblin, it's at .5 oh, for a start which I'm not that keen on with the sub tank any way. I'm going to rebuild and go for 1 ohm.

Btw the suicide bunny mothers milk is oh so good but gets used way to quickly frown would be fine if it was a fiver.

Well after only 3 weeks into this have ordered an Hcigar kayfun3.1, yes not took me long to start experimenting however I do not mind as have been rewicking my naturevape so coiling shall be my next thing.
Have become very used to rewicking as bought a batch of Hols virginia which kills the wick within 1-2 ml.
Shall be using the istick 30w with the Kayfun for the time being, cannot wait for it to arrive.
Also after some advice, read that certain liquids crack the tank so was wondering if hols virginia would damage the tank as it is so hard on the coil or one has nothing to do with the other ?

I got the Derringer and Marquis for just under $20 for both from Fasttech, both of them are brilliant. SMPL was $18.
I can't recommend all three of them enough, but the Marquis is something else! An original is $140.

Had stuck by my eGo Batteries and Aspire K1 tops for 6 months and have definitely cut down on cigarettes in that time, very rarely smoking in the week. However, it was getting to the weekend and I was still having a cheeky one now and again.

To try and stop that, I've finally upgraded biggrin Have been waiting for my local shop to get hold of the Aspire ESP 30W to see what it felt like in the hand and it is lovely. Bought a Nautilus mini to go with it and woohhhhh it's so much better than my last set up! More vapour, more flavour and a much better nicotine hit. I really shouldn't need the cigarettes any more smile

It was the first one they'd sold - not sure how I feel about being a guinea pig but hey-ho

Got my Hcigar kayfun3.1 today, putting the coil and wick in was a bloody nightmare ( my eyesight must be pretty dodgy) as they are so much smaller in real life compared to seeing it done on Youtube.
Anyway eventually got there and set it up on the istick 30w, fantastic vape and well worth the effort especially for the cost.

Currently using the other half's defunct ce4 on 650mAh ego battery. My word I need to get back up and running pronto!

Completely off topic but asking on the off chance someone knows. I have packed up smoking totally and there is no chance I'll be going back to cigarettes or e cigs.

I'm trying to shift my Nautilus mini and 2 EVOD's on eBay but it seems my advert falls foul of the Tobacco Policy which states you cannot sell "Electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) and components".

Interestingly, I bought all this from eBay in the first place and judging by the 1000's e-cig related items listed, I assume eBay are turning a bind eye. If only I can get past the robots to submit the listing.

Has anyone successfully sold any of this stuff on eBay?


Mod note: This is not an under-the-radar advert, given many of the folk in this thread buy this kit, it seems reasonable that some might sell it also and can help me smile
