Thanks. The subtank mini looks like a good choice. Perhaps I should wait 5 days until they become 'illegal' and therefore worth zip

I'm after a tank recommendation...

After something for MTL. Coil of around 1.5 ohm, big capacity (circa 4ml) but not too big on physical size. I'll be using it on a Smok R-Steam mini.

Currently looking at the Kanger Aerotank Mega?

I'm after some advice as well! Thinking of buying a kit for my Mum, she isn't interested in technology, so I want to get the easiest, least hassle kit to use. Having had a quick look on here, the eGo AIO sounds like a good one to get, is this a good choice?
Is there a best place to buy from? I had found the joyetech.co.uk site and was going to order from there.
Looking at the liquids, on some brands there is a cc and an adv version, do you need to use a particuler type of liquid, or are they all universal? Any recommendations for the strength to get, bearing in mind she has been smoking for 40+years now, although not heavily?

Yes lots of people raving about it as it is simple and easy to use for a beginner
Not sure what the going rate is but you could try GearBest

Thanks again. Tracked down a new one for under £20 with free p&p. En route.

Not sure what cc or adv refer to.

"The main prominent base fluid of e-liquid tends to be Propylene Glycol (PG) or it can also be Vegetable Glycerine (VG). Contents of the e-liquid solutions vary, but their common aspects include water and flavourings in a propylene glycol or glycerine base. Nicotine is also included in solutions intended to fulfil a nicotine replacement role. PG or VG liquid is used as the carrier to provide the nicotine to the user"

In a nutshell the liquid or juice has four components:
Propylene Glycol (PG)
Vegetable Glycerine (VG)
flavouring
Nicotine in milligram (mg)

A typical liquid, you would find your flavour select something like 70% VG/30% PG at say 10mg of nicotine.
Have a play on this site but they only do a maximum of 6mg of nicotine that might not be enough depending on how much they smoked a day.

LSC is middle of the road price wise, there is stuff cheaper and more expensive. Graggy juice is coming out at £ 26.75 for 100ml which is less that LSC.

If you really want to save money you can mix your own juice but its tricky and your messing about with bottle of high potency nicotine. Some times it not all about money, ill pay a company to mix it for me.

Did anyone get the Smoant Knight from NatureVape?
I read about it on here, so maybe someone did.
Might buy one this evening if anyone can confirm they are good.

I'd check the weight of the Smoant Knight from NatureVape. I have the eNVy22 Stealth Mod and it weighs a ton

£9.70 delivered for 90ml, that's amazing value and just as good quality as LSC

I hope its better than LSC, I found their stuff shockingly bad

Different juices taste different to different people. I wouldn't say their juice is shockingly bad just because it didn't suit you or you didn't like it.

I did say I "found" it shockingly bad, it may have just been me but I have now tried a number of juices and not had issues with any but the LSC ones, you did say yourself the last batch you had was not thick enough and leaked all over your ecig? I think its fair to highlight these things as people may go on older recommendations like I did and if a company is letting its standards drop people should be honest

[otolith]

I think I've had three orders from LSC and it's all been good.

That's fair enough, it's only my opinion and I may have got a bad batch, it's a shame as I was excited about their flavours but for the price I paid and compared to other juices I found them very harsh and severely lacking in flavour.

Well I ordered 90ml from Vapegoo and all three are heading for the bin.

Tried a creamy one, a custard, and blueberry. The first two made me feel sick and the blueberry just isn't blueberry enough. All three have an aftertaste that I just don't get on with.

However, popped into a local vape shop on the way home and picked up Decoded Davinci Code Butter Pecan Brûlée. And it's bloody marvellous! Think it's a bit steep at £17 for 30ml but it's ten times the juice of the three above.

Interesting, I know some people on another forum have said they do need to sit and steep for a bit, might be worth letting them sit for a bit before binning?

I think if these aren't great I'll be done with online juices. My local shop let's me try the juice before buying and for the £1-2 extra it costs it well worth avoiding these issues.
