I've been holding off getting a DNA30 esque device since I saw the PBusardo video on temp controlled DNA40. I agree, I think it is the way we need to go, there are loads of the 100watt plus boxes out there and it doesn't take much to figure out that in the wrong hands (unfortunately what is going to be a majority that gets reported) they are going to be dangerous.

A nice billet sized box with a DNA 40 in it will be on my shopping list in the new year, until then I am happy with my aspire CF with Aerotank and Unicoil.

P.S. Norseman Chilly Cherry is really a very nice flavour if anyone is interested. http://norsemanvapoursupplies.bigcartel.com/produc... You can use NORESMAN10 for 10% off orders over £12 too! I've got a bottle of the Blud Juice sitting in the cupboard too, looking forward to trying that!
What do they mean when they say on blue juice that its not recommended for tank users?

A lot of tanks are made with a plastic that reacts with certain flavours, leading to cracking...

A Pyrex or metal tank will be fine, as are certain plastics (my BB tank uses a plastic that is non reactive, with the downside that it's only semi transparent).

Thats what I thought but that was not mentioned in the add, just that not recommended for tanks, was wondering what it might do to my nautilus to ruin it.

Wonder if they can make it up with a bit more nicotine?

Probably means because it's high vg (much thicker than pg) then the coils might have a problem wicking and you could get dry hits. Only really had problems with the standard Kanger heads on high vg juices and the old style nautilus BDC heads. New BVC ones & nature vape coils have been fine. I'm vaping a 80/20 vg/pg juice now on the mini and it chucking out the clouds & giving plenty of flavour smile

I got confused as my current setup is fine with 100VG and doesn't die on me when on blueberry flavoured juice.

I believe that is what they are talking about with this one. Blud Juice was specifically designed for cloud chasing at Halloween so my guess is they're covering their own backs with that statement.

I personally never vape anything under 70/30 VG/PG so 80 shouldn't make much difference to me.

I've just had a couple bottles of Kraken Shade delivered (love the stuff!)

http://www.krakenecigs.com/eliquid/kraken-original...

Ones a 60/40 PG/VG and the others 75/25 VG/pg I'm getting a little (tiny) bit of a burnt taste on the 75 with the BVC coils, I can chain Vape the 60/40 no problem but the 75 needs to have the power turned down around 1-2 watts plus a bit of time in between vapes. Not sure which I prefer, maybe the 60/40.. I'm getting a tad more flavour here. Both lovely though and worth a try smile

Ultimate lazy vaping. 5ml Nautilus on an istick. Lasts for days without filling or charging. looks silly as hell so swap to the mini Nautilus when out and about and with three of those on the go I don't need to top them up too often.

OK, so here I am, in a sprinter van, doing 80-100mph -legally- on german autobahn with two colleagues on my way to on-site installation.
One is slighly asthmatic but does not mind us two vaping occasionally, we both have our ego twist with kanger mini protank 2 stuck in the dashboard for a quick draw every now and then.
Then a police Benz overtakes us, slowly, and proceeds to get in my lane in front of me.
I do a quick mind-check, was there a temporary limit or not, was I doing anything wrong ? No.
But then the "Follow Me" LEDs light up and we both get onto a exit and stop.
"What´s up?" is my first question, no answer,but I am asked what these thingies on top of the dashboard are,
I show them the e-cig and explain "Oh", they say.
Papers are demanded and proceeded,
I have to get out of the van to open the rear door and show the -as usual- properly strapped-down cargo.
I ask again what I did to get pulled out of traffic and they tell me it was the "crack pipes"
they saw in a quick glimpse into our cabin while overtaking.

I had to refrain myself from laughing out loud and briefly explained the pros of vaping,
it seemed that the policemen never saw such a device, both were non-smokers.

I am typing this in my hotel room happily puffing away like I do,
no staff ever complained because there is no stale smoke to notice when I leave.

In the greek restaurant where we had dinner I walked outside as usual for a vape hit,
because I don´t want to cause an argument.

Still grinning about the coppers though, although they busted my "4hrs Frankfurt-Hamburg" goal.

I had some raised eyebrows at Zurich Airport 18 months ago, but nothing like that!

Closest I've come was doing a project in Southend. Big centre, with a very 'loose' dress code. I'm there for a couple of days, and popped out the the smokehut with a mate.

One of the young fillies came over and asked if it was a crack pipe. To which I said 'yes, only way I can get through the day'. 'But you're a manager ain't ya?! Oh, s'pose ya do 'av a lotta stress'...

My chum was purple faced with trying to hold in his laughter. I heard a week or so later the gossip in the centre was that the managers were worked so hard they had to resort to crack.

What's th expert opinion on the best vanilla juice? I've got DEA vanilla at the moment and its alright, but not amazing. I've got a real sweet tooth so would like the sickly sweet vanilla flavours, but as it's helping me give up the fags, would still like the decent throat hit (that means higher PG, doesn't it?)

The only one I have tried is Drakes Vapes Vanilla Trifecta, I love it.

http://allthejuices.com/juice/vanilla-trifecta

Quite pricey, but it's 50/50 so might fit your throat hit needs.

If you like sweet, Vapemunki do a lovely Rhubarb and custard - it's quite a vanillary custard, with the added sweetness of the rhubarb. Barbed Custard.

Cheers chaps thumbup

Just having a browse through those and a few others and found a site called Witch Eliquid. Got myself a little bottle of toffee caramel and Root Beer!! Root beer is my all time favourite thing in the world, ever, so should be interesting!!

Maybe I just got a bad batch or didn't allow it to steep for long enough but I didn't really rate Barbed Custard. However if Jonboy wants a really sickly sweet vanilla flavour then I recommend Bazilla Custard (Vanilla custard)

Not really tried a nice Vanilla on its own but there's some cracking Vanilla Custards out from the following online vendors smile

Gremlin Juice (amazing!!!!) I get mine from cloudhousevapour
Vaper Caper
Digbys
Kraken
Grants (get 30 or 50ml if you can as it's hard to get hold of, he sells out very quick)

i'm getting into my desert and sweet flavours. just finished my first bottle of manabush nanabozha and it was by far the yummiest juice i've had. just took delivery of some gremlin vanilla custard and it has the same sweet kind of smell out the bottle. just got to fill an atomiser and try it now! i'll report back with what i think of it shortly.

i do find i need to alternate between sweet and fruity flavours to keep interested though. too much of a good thing and you can tire of it, but break it up with something fruity or citrusy and when you go back to the sweet stuff you really appreciate it again.

i'm nearly 4 weeks into a cig free life... never gone that far thanks to this thread!

Good work that man. It's a great feeling when you realise that you don't actually like fags anymore.
