Oh, and if you like the carbon battery I got myself one of the 1600mAh ones.

Quite a bit bigger but it's easily getting me two days of use without a charge.

It is all down to usage and circumstances but as Mark says there is nothing worse than a dead battery when you're first getting started, especially when you're vaping like a madman as everyone does at first IME. All too easy to reach for the fags again...

That's another reason why everyone on here will advise to have 2 of everything, including the special chargers for the aspire/ego type batteries.

With regards to the NV coils, they do a number of different types that will fit pretty much any of the decent quality clearomizers available.

Yup, I've even got spare spares, there's nothing worse than a busted tank on a Sunday night smile

On the subject of Naturevape coils, I would just like to reiterate for anyone who's missed it,

They work really well in RGM2 Glassomisers.

£5 on eBay:

Or £2 on Fasttech (three week wait from China):

And also, Virtual Vape do very similar coils to Naturevape for less money:

Another nice mod for someone

GP Paps Clone
https://www.fasttech.com/p/1830400

Fire buttons almost touch sensitive which is nice, copper/stainless body & brass contacts. Comes with 18650/18500/18350 tubes. Pretty similar to the Da Iron mod but can be stood upright and not fire/fall over & fit seamless with my Heron.

Definitely one to consider if your looking for a cheap mod....

On another note, is anyone having difficulty logging into POV? I can get in on my iPhone but not the ipad frown

Found a new supplier of 100% VG juice but the range is a little limited.

Ok gents, having now spent some cash on decent gear and a limited choice of juice, I'm still on the cigarettes despite vaping pretty much all the time!! Having had a think earlier whilst having a smoke outside, what I'd like to try and find is a smooth yet strong flavour. I've tried the blackcurrant menthol and the vanilla menthol at 50/50 and 100% VG, and prefer the 100% VG as there's little to no throat hit. I got the strongest (36mg) juice, but there's just not enough flavour for my liking. I also got the banana nut loaf (all from paradise vape), but still not strong enough.

So, can somebody suggest a non menthol flavour(s) that's still quite strong and can actually be tasted rather just a wiff of aroma to accompany the lungful of steam? I appreciate I may be asking the impossible, but it's worth a try and I would quite like to give up the fags altogether!

Yeah the Kato looks really nice, no good for me though as it won't take a Taufun GT frown
They might have them cheaper on FocalEcig, they sometimes have a group buy or special offers on.

There's also the NV Gizmo which sounds good & the 24mm definitely takes the Nautilus, 18500 batteries though & all mine are 18650.

Are you getting the Silo Tank? That sounds like the perfect tank smile

Not me. It just looks like a Nautilus copy and I have 4 nautilus.

Yep blatant rip off, sounds like they've improved the base/air flow then added a stainless tank over glass. Handy for me as I'm a bit clumsy! That's my next tank.

I'm really impressed with the nautilus mini so far, the big ones also miles better with BVC coils. If anyone's looking for a starter tank or something to replace they're basic kit the mini's 100% worth going for. It's excellent.

Yeah seen them, I've got the signature tank on my big one. They look better than the other version! Looks like a small penis biglaugh

Been thinking about the nautilus tanks in a mech mod, just one thing to consider & mine don't perform as well with my mechs vs a variable device like my Vamo & iTaste v3. So maybe the kato won't be that great with the nautilus as it's not getting the power. Still usable but they seen to perform much better on the other mods. On the flip side my RBA's & drippers work better on mech mods. Get the coil & wicking right and they're great.

I've not tired it myself but what I have heard suggests that this is a pretty powerful juice. http://www.t-juice.com/shop/red-astaire/

I have always enjoyed Hangsen fruit flavours (but mostly in a PG/VG mix), Blueberry is my favourite.

I have never tried this site before but they do Hangsen in 100% VG:

Decent price too.

Just found a package on the mat, forgot I ordered this. 10ml of The Governor a 70VG/30PG bitter sweet lemon in 6mg strength. Says to steep for a week so can't try it yet.
http://www.lancashiresteamcompany.co.uk/shop.html

£4.99 for 10ml comes in a glass bottle with a pipette in the lid. They also chucked in for free 10ml of Boggart Breath which sounds a little unusual:

"In Lancashire the Boggart is a impish ghost responsible for all manner of japery. In the village of Sabden they were known to steal treacle from the mines and sweets from young children. Their breath is thick with sweet and fruity tones in a very unusual way".

Yep no problem. Topped up with the wrong juice once and had a very nice apple tobacco flavour.

Thanks for the suggestions, but they have the stumbling block I've found in that getting 100% VG isn't as easy as it looks! I can't take the throat hit of even 50/50 without having to take a drink after every inhale of the stuff.
