Nice,

Figured Im going to go for the Smok V8 Stick kit. I have the Coolfire 4Plus for heavy use, but the Stick seems to get good reviews and will suit for day - to - day usage.

Will report back

Something like this might be the only choice for a cheaper mod with an internal battery

Need some Temp control help please!

I'm using a Smok Alien and Uwell Crown tank with the Ni200 0.15 coil.

It's in TC mode, 450F, 60W and TCR set to 0.000600.

This worked fine for me this morning, no issue at all. Just tried to use it again and it's hitting temp protect warnings almost instantly. The instructions are useless and I'm struggling to understand why it cuts out.

Any pointers?
Have had this with the Alien with a Kayfun v5 tank with ssteel sub ohm home built coils.
Vapes great for a few hours and after that all of a sudden the temp control starts to cut in almost instantly, basically cannot vape.
Way round it for me is not to build sub ohm and it works great, at the moment my coil build is just over 1 ohm and it works great.

With a bit of playing around today dropping to 45w and upping to 500f seems to work. Not as good as it was initially though though.
I've ordered some .25 coils to try.

Mine is setup at much lower wattage, never feel the need to go that high.
Temp mode at 310c with 1.095 coil and at 17w.

Sleekit - great quality and 100ml for £15.

I'm no expert, but doesn't the difference in Ohms account for a lot of that? I'm using a 0.15.

Just paid half price for 40 bottles of Heisenberg from Vampire Vape. £200.

Is this them selling off the stock due to the bottle size?

Yes you are correct, I was just saying what setting I found works best for me without the Alien causing the problem of hitting the temp control almost instantly.
I probably misworded when I said "never feel the need to go that high", what I was trying to say is I tend to try and keep the wattage low for better battery life and also lower juice consumption.

At a guess. Everything has to be in 10ml bottles soon.

Do sleekit do anything with a higher nicotine content? Had a look but the highest they seem to go is 6mg.

Does anyone have any recommendations for anywhere that sells higher nicotine content fuids in tidy sizes so 50ml+?

Yes, i think they have to sell everything non-compliant before May, just picked up a good stock of pinkman from VV as well.

Also aspire seem to have a big sale on to clear out the 2ml+ tanks. Got a spare nautilus 5ml. biggest saving was on a cf max with atlantis mega tank premium kit down to 29.99 from nearly hundred quid - nearly bought one on amazon for 85 so glad i checked the aspire store first.

although I feel wholly healthier for giving up smoking, i regret finding this thread, what started out as a potential money saver when i got a simple logic vape pen for 15 quid has within a week turned into a few hundred nicker on tanks, batteries juice etc,

I think most of us go through buying lots of different toys at the start.
Till a couple of months ago had not bought anything for about 9 months, ended up getting 2 mods and three tanks in the space of a week however that should keep me happy for a while.
The problem is the box full of mods and tanks just gets getting fuller as I am not the type to sell or chuck things away.
Probably the money saver would be very noticeable if you mixed your own liquids.

yeah i think I'll be good for a while now, it's mainly just been a learning curve if getting a setup that works for me and some spare kit based on what i learned here. i was happy with the nautilus mini i had but wanted a spare battery so picked up a couple of 5ml nautilus tanks before they get the tpd 2ml limit ban. I wasn't sure if i was going to try sub ohm, but since the atlantis 5ml wont be around and it was 70 percent off i figured it was worth the price of 3 boxes of marlboros. stockec up on my favourite juice in 30ml so will likely break even before i have to buy any more juice/coils.

of course the real benefit is not having to go out to buy cigarettes or coughing my lungs out, but this pinkman and heisenberg stuff is so addictive i've gone from 12mg to 3mg in 5 days and having spare tanks at least makes it easier to switch flavors.

the only thing I got that was pretty meh was the nautilus 2 - I found the original and mini much better.

i have to say though the advice here was a godsend, based on the logic stick i got i would not have seen the appeal of vaping at all - the switch to a nautilus was like night and day difference, i tried to give up last year with one of thise vuse cigalikes and its clear big tobacco really dont want people swirching.

Think I'm going to order VTC6s for it, I run at 30w-ish so won't be troubling the amp limits, and the extra run time will be nice.

Just a little bored so I've just ordered a Smok GX350, four new batteries for it and a TFV-12. In gold. Pimp.

I'll use the 12-coil head a few times just for the lolz but then switch back to using the quads smile
