E-Cigs

[ReedyDS3]

Just a quick one on Bigjuice - Ordered 50ml of Just Astaire (Copy of Red Astaire) and 50ml of Granted It's Custard (Grants VC copy) and I have to say that for the price they are very good - especially the custard, i have not had Grants, but have tried most of the other, including Digby's and the Redjuice one is very nice indeed - The Jut Astaire is not quiet 100% Red Astire, but it similar enough and half the price. All are 70pg/30vg and that is how I like them.

I have also ordered a Viva Nova, with the BVC to see if BVC's are better than the Naturevape Pro coil I have in the Aerotank... will have to see! If they are a Nautilus shall have to be ordered!

Also make sure you are drinking a lot. The juice/vapour can dry your throat out making you cough.

I will give it a try and see how I get on with it. Thanks

Are you drawing on it the same as you would do a ciggy? That'll make you cough

... and dehydrate you. I had my first vape hangover from dehydration this weekend after a night in vaping halcyon haze like a trooper.

It could also be PG or VG. I've found that juices with anything more than about 40%pg make me cough on exhale.

Has anyone used this company?
Their prices seem very good with free delivery on purchases over £9.

The one i am currently using is 80/20 VG/PG. 12mg.

I think it could be the dehydration thing, I will see if it gets better.

I need some advice..
I have a nautilus mini with an Aspire CF VV battery and when ever I use it, it always makes me cough when i'm inhaling/exhaling. I have primed it properly and keep changing the battery setting and going through different holes on the tank but it's the same.

What the hell am I doing wrong? (have tried a few different juices)
I really want to use this all the time instead of cigarettes but am not enjoying it at the moment.

had the same issue with mine. i believe the cause is e liquid down the center hole after filling.
take the bottom off and clean any e liquid out the center hole that may have got in. doesn't have to be loads, but it caused me to cough till i cleaned it out.

I don't think that it. I have an istick that measures how long I take a drag/pull on the juice/vapour. I average a 3.5 second pull something I would never do with a cigarette

rich12 noticed that you are using 12mg nicotine, maybe knock that back a little to 10mg

Reminded me of this vid, maybe skip to 1:30

Personally I vape 100% VG juice at 6mg of nicotine. I buy from http://www.paradisevapeuk.co.uk/ mainly. You can choose 100% VG and adjust the level of nicotine. I started on 10mg im down to 6mg. Not the cheapest juice but still cheaper than cigs.

They have a facebook group so you can ask questions to the vendor directly and maybe get some suggestions.

I have no connections to the vender but probably have over 200ml of juice in various flavours that I vape on.

As an experiment I currently have a 5ml nautilus on my istick. Got it filled with Paradise Vape Rhubarb 100%VG at 6mg of nic. On the widest airflow I can take a 6 second lung inhale.

Bit of an odd one here! I got a brand new Protank II yesterday, but everuthing tastes absolutely disgusting thought it - almost like burning plastic. I filled it last night and it was ok for a bit, but this morning it's just making me feel sick!

It came with 2 coils - a 1.8 and a 2.4ohm (I think, there's nothing to distinguish one from the other). I'm using a Grüv 1000mah battery with it, not VV. Is it possible I could've burned the coil out with that?!

I know nothing about power/electric at all so this may be a basic question!!

[VEA]

It's possible yes.

Some coils do short.

It's start by washing it out and switch the coil. If it still tastes odd then I'd point at juice.

Cheers bud. Have had 2 juices in there and both taste mingin, so I'll have to do that.

Could the ohm rating have led to that? Just thinking that I'd need to buy replacements so don't wanna just get the same if it'll only happen again!

[VEA]

My experience, some coils just aren't put together properly, if the insulators not right or the leg of the coil is sticking out a bit... or if the wick was not working correctly and not enough juice was getting to the coil it's likely that you could burn the coil, hence the burned taste.

On a normal ego battery I think about 1.8ohms is about right really.

completely fed up of vaping at the moment, tempted to go back to cigarettes just solely because cigs don't leak
I've tried the evod, et-s, aspire nat and another one and they all leak, sick of having to wash my hands constantly and rinse toxic liquid out of my mouth

just addding:
bought new bvc coils for the aspire (genuine from vapescape) worked for half a day then leaks out the airhole/gargles and spits liquid out of the top, i've cleaned it/replaced the coils but it still happens.

also: the itaste mvp battery is great and i'm very impressed with the charge etc, but it came with an iclear 15 kit, this also leaks.

I'm so mad with vaping right now, smoking is so much easier and if it wasn't so expensive I wouldn't hesitate to go back

really surprised by this. I've had 3 types of tank and none have leaked. iclear 30, naturevape mini and smok aro.

I do find they need a little maintenance, but overall it's so much cleaner and nicer. One thing i am pleased about the most is not having an ash tray and the stench of smoke on everything. Overall it's a much tidier process.

Does this help at all?

I just went off to see if anyone else was experiencing the same thing and found that on UKv.

Has anybody got any experience of Digby juices delivery times? I ordered 4 x 10ml on Wednesday of last week and it's still not arrived. Have emailed them with no response, just wondering if anybody else had to wait this long? As a comparison, I ordered 3 x 100ml of juice off Vapemunki and it arrived in the post after 2 days!

I received my delivery from them on Monday, ordered on Friday. I've bought from them a few times and never had any issues.
