Watched it last night - fairly pointless really.
Chris Choi seemed keen to push the "they've not been tested so we just don't know if they're less harmful than cigarettes" line.....
That's exactly what I thought too... bit of a pointless exercise.

But the only thing is isn't it true ? I'm a great supporter of e-cigs but some of the liquids I've seen are a bit dodgy looking in a way with no proper ingredients on them , problem is I feel that the price will rocket as soon as they are tested , the best thing would be for the e-cig industry body - who must be raking it in now - to pay for independent testing so at least we will know what is in them ?

We do know exactly what is in them:

Vegetable Glycerin
Propylene Glycol
Flavour
Nicotine

None of which have been proved to be harmful, I'm sure the tobacco and pharmaceutical industries have tried very hard to find otherwise.

But I take your point that some manufacturers may be better than others, if this worries you then you should buy premium liquid from quality UK or US manufacturers.

Bought today.

Itaste mvp (version 1 not the new one) with a kanger pro tank 2.
My 1st experience of vv is not helped by having a stinking cold, but it seems far superior to what I had before (standard 1100 mah battery + kanger 2).

Been thinking about this for awhile. I smoke too much drum and have a young family. Just ordered the Vape escape 1000 Ultimate (dodgy name,) this forum has made me take the plunge.

Hope it works...love a gadget.

Well that's what I thought but it's not that. It does not burn so it's different and judging by the state of Keith after 5 min it's a lot stronger...

We bought our first e-cigs yesterday to try & quit. Just a cheap one to try and see how we get on called 'gosmoke'

The missis usually smokes 20 Lambert & Butler a day and I smoke around 10 Marlboro Ice Blast a day, can anyone recommend a liquid & strength to match these flavours please guys? I've tried a menthol which is ok but not as mentholy as the ice blast....

Pretty impressed so far though! Even after just 24 hours I haven't touched the marlboro's!

Or a Ploom Pax - like the MFLB nicely regulated to not combust but to vaporise.

Ive not smoked the iceblast but used to smoke marlbro lights and marlbro menthols have a look at decedent vapours menthol and/or peppermint. Peppermint is great and the menthol is super strong.

The menthol is strictly menthol though no tobacco taste, the peppermint has more body to it and may fill your needs more.


Vape escape have them and use ecr69 for 10% discount.

No idea what Gosmokes are but if you stick with vaping you could consider an eGo battery and an Aspire BDC Clearomiser as your next upgrade.

All beginners want a liquid that tastes the same as their old smokes but it is nearly impossible to replcate the taste of burning vegetation. Most peeps realise this after a while and venture into other flavours and find they taste better than leaves on fire. My preference is for fruit flavours, watermelon, peach and blueberry in particular.

If she was on 20 a day I would recommend she start at 24mg strength liquid and if you were on 10 a day probably 18mg would do.

Well done by the way.

Thanks gents that's very helpful smile

I'll get shopping online tonight! Yeah she could probably do with a higher number as she's got 12ml and starting to get a bit grumpy (......polite for a bit of a PITA!!)

I just purchased a Kangertech evod variable voltage ecig and coupled with the kangertech protank mini 2 i already had its perfect for my needs, so much vapour from such a small tank.

Highly recommend it if anyones looked at these before.

Purchased from www.vapour-room.com , top service from these guys so far smile

I've just bought the same one smile
Looking at the YouTube vids it gives off miles more vapour than what we bought Saturday. Also bought a couple different e-liquids to try smile

Should the light be on when the Kanger Evod VV battery is charging? Mine flashes a few times then stays off?

Also does it matter what the voltage is set on when its on charge?
Thanks Dave

Mine flashes and then goes off, there should be a red/green LED on the charging unit that indicates full/empty and jumps red>green>red to indicate charging - getting progressively longer green as charge is taken.

Not seen anything about the VV setting when charging, I just leave mine as is.

Thanks Andy, thats put my mind and ease! I thought there was a problem then!
Really impressed with this kit, MILES better quality than my gosmoke one smile

Also found a winner for my e-juice which is pretty much smack on with the Marlboro Ice Blast! Its even better with a nice strong menthol taste beer

I've been vaping for the past couple of weeks in my car and the inside of my windscreen is now covered in this white powdery stuff from the vapour (it was immaculate before). Does anyone know what this is? And ermm... will it settle on my lungs?

What are you vaping? I've no issue in my car unlike the smokescreen that cigs used to produce.

By the same token even if it is, it'll be better than the cigarette stuff that is definitely settling.
