My liquid of choice at the moment is Dr. Stanley Clark's Snake Oil - http://tmax-juices.co.uk/.

It's a complex flavour, with hints of citrus and aniseed.

It's stunning isn't it.

Such a complex mix of flavours, coming in at different points during a vape.

Must have gone through 400ml of the stuff, and still keep going back for more!

Tis a great juice.

I've heard Five pawns get compared to http://www.halcyonhaze.co.uk/ which is made here in the UK. £11.99 for 20ml is fking expensive though. I've not had the balls to get any yet.

Same here! I think I've been spoilt with Cloudhousevapour! You get 5x30ml for around 35 quid plus Nathan chucks an extra bottle in FOC!! Cracking deal/service & the juice is pretty good too

I made up another 50ml different juices last night to try....yummy!!!

Well its thin and will not take up much room with a small UBS charger but they are still tall.



That's the 1000mah battery with the thicker collar that suits the mini nautilus, the bigger batteries thin at the top. They were supposed to be doing a pass though and they show one on their web site but not seen one to buy.

I've been fancying the 1600mah vv in red. Yeah not seen the pass through anywhere for sale.

Another I've been looking at is the itaste clk in silver

I've got the 1600mAh in black. It's a really well made piece of kit, feels really solid and the twist action is really pleasing. Battery lasts for ages too.

Mrs bought a silver clk a couple of weeks ago by accident. It's horrible, really flimsy feeling, the usb on the side is rubbish too, slightly out of place so the plug doesn't sit straight (my ocd hates it, it works perfectly well though).

Thanks to Griffin Dai, VEA and ReedyDS3 for their replies, and Cotty for his ongoing stuff. I've taken a screen shot of the basics so as not to get confused with the smoking with Buck Rogers style stuff. Will get some kit ordered.

Yeah that charging cable could be a right pita.

These cf batteries look great, I didn't realise they were real cf, thought they were wrapped so that's a bonus. Just need to decide on the mah now, I don't think 650 will be enough going off the missis itaste v3 (I think its 700?) so either 1100 or 1600.

What's the lowest ohms they can go to? Will 1.2ohms be ok or too low?

Watch your tanks with this if they're polycarbonate as it chews through them and they crack. Fine with glass or stainless tanks though

[Shnozz]

Just a quick Q - apologies - I read somewhere about needing different tanks for different liquids. Is this correct?!

No but some juices are known to crack polycarbonate tanks (called tank crackers)

So a juice like Snake Oil could crank a polycarbonate tank but will be fine in a stainless or glass tank. If you go for the nautilus mini you'll be fine with any juice as its glass plus you can get a stainless tank for it if you prefer that look.

Not really but some flavours like cinnamon can crack plastic tanks so stick to glass.

If you have a couple of tanks you can have a different flavour in each. I have apple in one and pear in the other today.

[markomah]

I don't think you need different tanks for different liquids - you can wash out tanks between juices and, unless you've been using something with a strong flavour like menthol or coffee, you should be good to go straight away with the new liquid.

I've read about people doing a 'deep clean' by soaking in Milton's overnight to get rid of a particularly persistent flavour from a tank, and I know Cotty on here uses an ultrasonic cleaning bath, but I haven't tried either of those yet.

I've tried Perpetual Check (their Berry mix). It was very nice, but to be honest I don't think worth the cash. Certainly nothing wrong with it, but it was lacking the last little something that for me makes a great juice. Probably a lack of complexity - it was very consistent in flavour, but that flavour didn't have a vast amount of depth. I also think that the packaging is excessive, and must be part of the premium.

The little posh tube containing a glass dripper bottle looked great, but instantly led to my missus asking how much it cost!

Hope that helps.

Recently trying a few different juices from kraken.

Minion Farts - great name, great juice. Tastes exactly like those banana penny sweets I used to love. Not too sweet for all day (although I do have a sweet tooth).

Kinslayer - first custard I've tried, good enough that I'll be trying some of the custards recommended on here.

Squid ink - great reviews, didn't do it for me.

Dire Wolf Bite - minty berry. Quite harsh and lacking in depth of flavour.

So a mixed bag. Just finishing a bottlebottle of Papillon organic Berry mix which has been steeping for months (tasted like water when I first got it, tastes alright now).

Time to order a big bottle of Snake Oil, and some samples from the ones recently mentioned...

Thanks, Sway, I think I'll hold off ordering any Five Pawns unless/until I get a chance to try them first.

Having read some of the comments above, I think I need to try a bottle of Snake Oil. I'm not a massive fan of anise flavours, but it sounds like this might convert me!

Thats if you don't mind the cock and balls juice window

[telford_mike]

I' ee tried a few juices now, mostly from Puffin and Vapemunki. Some are gloopy and seem to give a big throat hit. Others are thinner - a lot more runny. I gather this is the difference between VG and PG?

But which is which?

[Cotty]

VG is the thicker of the two liquids and creates the vapour.

[telford_mike]

thank you

Happy to look a pillock! I don't think "vaping" is going to look anything other than ridiculous anyway so a cock and balls window is the least of my worries!

Are those metal tank bits stronger? I was going for one of those nautilus ones that cotty referred to previously but if the metal ones are more robust and droppable then perhaps I should get a metal one (if someone could link to what that is?)

TIA

I think they are glass inside, covered apart from the window in metal so should add some protection the larger 5ml nautilus you could get in all metal no window
Anyway

Any recommendations for Bubblegum and Candyfloss flavour juices?

I buy off the highstreet as it is easier for me. So I end up giving the likes of VIP and Totally wicked my money, or the dog piss 4 for £10 bottles from the dodgy market dealer.
