Pretty nice mate, was far too sweet at first, let it steep a week and its much better. Also bought bazilla custard, gurner & glacial cherries. Custards ok but no where near as nice as Gremlin or Digbys, gurner was nice, cherries was WAAAY too strong! I've binned most the bottle. I like cherry & menthol juices but this was too much...
Its catch 22 everyone wants flavour and when they get it its to much. I think you need to find a balance. I tend to like mild flavours with lots of vapour with a VG juice, but like to swap it up.

Also almost burnt the house down this week when my GP Paps mod auto fired for 15 mins sat on the table! Fire button must have just slightly connected with the battery and the thing heated right up! Was red hot and close to exploding! Missis went a bit loopy frown
Not sure what to say about that. I have a few mods running unprotected batteries. When im using them they are in my hand so can see if a problem is happening. I have left batteries on charge overnight by mistake but I have an intelicharger so no issues.

Is there any way to stop the juice from popping into your mouth or is there something wrong with my mini nautilus?

I hold the button down for a few seconds, you hear a pop then its fine to vape on.

Have the same issue with my mine. Went into UKEcig who I'd bought it from and the guy there said it was a known issue. Rather annoying though as it does send hot liquid flying when it pops.

Yep like I said hold the button down for a few seconds, you hear a pop then its fine to vape on. Just don't have it in your mouth when you do it.

That's what I've been doing, as well as trying to keep it facing away from anything that might not like the liquid hitting it either.

On a more positive note though, still one of the best tanks I've used.

For those interested in slightly more advanced stuff. I've managed to get myself on the list for the first run of these produced by a member on UKv.

That looks really quite nice.

How much if you don't mind me asking?

Loving my billet box, but would like something that vape as well as a micro coiled mod. Just not possible to retrofit one into the billet box.

Would be nice to find a Billet sidewinder style dna mod that'll take an atty like the ubertoot...

I think it's going to come out at around £150 with the mini kit as an add on. Which for a locally designed and manufactured device is OK I think. I've been holding off on buying a kayfun like device in the hope that I might find something that doesn't look quite so unwieldily. I think I found it. Production is underway now and we should take delivery in around 8 week. At which point Pete will require payment, so nothing up front. Oh, and it's called an Ubertoot!! how fricking cool is that!

Looks a little bit like an improved Taifun GT? So it's not that much more expensive than a genuine Taifun @ £115/£120 where all you get there is the atty plus a few spare o-rings & screws. With the mini kit plus the extras like the stands & ss tank for £150 it still a lot cheaper than a Taifun plus say a genuine stainless tank & nano kit (genuine Taifun kit is big money so I stick with the clones!)

Still too rich for me though. Maybe I've been spoilt with these clones from FT! 20-30 quid gets you a cracking RBA these days from Fasttech.....
Build looks a bit fiddly too especially if your like me and change your juices regularly. If you can afford it then yeah go for it, sounds like it gets excellent flavour. Too expensive for me though.

On the cheaper end of the scale! I've been using this Heron clone all week and it's been excellent. Very easy to rebuild and gives tons of flavour. 50/50 which is better, this or my Taifun but both are miles better than my Kayfun & Fogger V4! The v4's terrible & the Kayfun leaks like crazy (great flavour when it's working though)

Heron:

If your after a nice cheap RBA in the meantime I'd recommend the Heron or GT no problem. Both are excellent imo smile

I like it VEA!

Don't think the price is unreasonable at all...

Hmm. Some searching to be done.

Also... just ordered one of these for a mate as a starter with a nautilus mini on top http://www.bargainvapour.com/Eleaf_iStick_Complete...

Initial reviews seem really good and there is no stock anywhere in the UK which can only be a good sign.

Still can't find a box I like enough to buy.

Yup, the rDNA seems to tick most boxes (see what I did there? wink ) Wireless charging too... smile It's just that I look in a thread like http://ukvapers.org/Thread-The-Sexy-Box-Mod-Porn-T... and there are sooo many nice looking boxes, they're just all so blooming expensive!

I've just got a clone Hana Modz box mod and using it exclusively this week over my Nemesis, ego's and my temperamental Vamo V5 - recommended

So, my nemesis battery mod is a bit annoying - there's a little metal pin that locks into the brass ring - but it's constantly falling out.

Is there anything wrong with gluing it in place the to the base (not the brass thing).
I've found a flint from a disposable lighter fits and works better than the original

I had a Cloupor Cana Mod Clone. Got it right when the first came out. Not sure why, but just didn't get on with it. I see they've announced their DNA40 box already.

I like the smaller DNA but not that you need to send t back to the factory if you have a battery issue. With the rDNA you just put a new battery in it.

Hmm. The better half would remove my testicles (after promising her my billet box would be the last ecig purchase for a looong time), but...

I love it. Can't be doing with exposed atomisers anymore. Love the rugged toughness from an enclosed atty, and am far too used to boxes now.
