E-Cigs

[The Turbonator]

Well back to using my Ego for the time being. My Innokin iTaste SVD 2.0 is completely dead, won't turn on or do anything. Took it all apart, cleaned it all, cleaned all the contact points, recharged both my batteries, left it for a few days but I think it it's safe to say it's gone to a better place. There's also a burnt electrical smell coming from the inside of it too.

It's only 10 weeks old too. Rang UK E-cig store yesterday who were pretty quick to tell me.It was out of warranty until I corrected them and told them it says it comes with a 3 month warranty in the instruction booklet. Was promised a call back by thier technical department but that never materialised, so will be calling them back again today myself.

I'm hoping they will replace it as using this Ego is pretty rank to be honest, especially when I've got used to vaping a Eleaf Lemo at 20 watts.

Just received my Kanger mini sub tank!

All I can say is wow!

I have the Atlantis sub tank already and this knocks it in to a cocked hat by quite some margin.

In what way is it better? I have an Atlantis already and was about to buy a spare but will get the Kanger if it is that much better

The flavours are much better for a start. Not half as much cackling and gurgling. Much smoother and a bigger tank. Not much in it but it's slightly larger and easier to clean.

I'm buying another it's that good.

Still struggling to find a sweet spot for me with juice but the flavours from the kanger tank are a level above the Atlantis.

I only went and dropped my ecig last night 8 hours into a 12 hour shift and smashed the tank. Thankfully had a spare but not as good as my aspire.

Thats partly why I always carry two tanks and two batteries.

Thanks. Seeing as I was going to buy another anyway I may as well give it a go.

Has anybody tried different heads in the Atlantis? I think the eleaf Melow heads fit but what about the SMOK ones?

[Du1point8]

strange one here...

Have a kanga aero and put in a new coil, new juice and used it for 2 days, just put more juice in and the tank effectively just dumped all the juice out of the vents at the bottom, everything is tight and screwed on correctly with no gaps... Whats fked on it and why is it doing that? Im at a loss as to why it just did that.

[Cotty]

Only heard that on planes.

[Du1point8]

left it on the table and the next time I picked it up my hand is covered in juice... strange.

Only using it whilst I wait for new coils to turn up for the nautilus as I stupidly ran out.

Just to add to this. I wouldn't say that the Subtank is leagues better than the Atlantis but it is superior.

Every tank, RTA and dripper I've got has leaked one time or other through the air holes. My Taifun GT2 pissed juice all over my hand last night as it got empty. Still not sure why but when they start gurgling.....leaky tank time

Eleaf Melow & a couple old school carto tanks on the way from China

This Melow tanks getting some excellent reviews...cheap too!! Always fancied trying a carto so can't wait to give it a go

Thinking of sacking this Zamplebox subscription and just stick to UK vendors like Kraken & Vaper Caper, is it me or do all these US juices taste the same? I must have 7 or 8 bottles here from different brands and all taste the same! Yeah time to bin it!!

Which is why I always use cotton wool wicks. Cotton wool swells with liquid thereby not allowing liquid past the wick/coil and into the air passage.

Silica does not expand with liquid.

I recommend Naturevape coils for your Aerotank, using one as I type, never leaked a drop.

Added bonus, they can be easily re-wicked many times.

But cheaper here and imo just as good

Or make your own, pretty easy but with Cammys heads for £2.50 a pop, I really can't be bothered

Is it easy to replace the cotton in Cammys coils, I have three and they look tiny.

Not sure what point you are making here.

It is easy to replace the wick because they look tiny?

Thats what I was trying to say.

Might need a magnifying glass as my eyesight is not what it once was

Nope, still confused. I think you must mean they are NOT easy to re-wick because they look tiny?

I use a needle threader to get the wick started in the coil, very cheap on eBay.

No probs here, I've been using Vaper caper jap cotton and it's been fine, I peel the thin top & bottom layers first, now using cotton bacon with no probs.

One coil did leak though so I rebuilt this but the rest are fine.
