General Discussion on Vendors, Devices etc.

Anyone know anything about lavatubes? Mentioned aaaaaages ago mine was messing up giveing a reading of 0.0v when i had a dripper with a brand new head on it. Thought it was flooded so let it dry out for a while. Have and ego adapter which i put T3's on so i tried that last week and got mixed results. when screwed on securely it gave 0.0v, when i twiddled it and let it go loose a bit it drastically changed everytime i pressed the power button to see what it was reading. going from 9.9 all the way down to 0.0. Mental really.

Possibly what cause it is the centre post is slightly off angle. not noticable until you put something on it and it leans. few millimetres really but i think it was gouging into the bottom of the centre post. Quite possibly completly screwed but if anyone has experienced something like this and fixed it or knows how to fix it that would be great!

I got myself a mini provari and holy crap I love it! I have a standard one that I got second hand and I know there is no difference in performance but I just love the mini. Now I would like to see them make blue and red ones. :-)
Well worth saving for in my opinion!

Does anyone know where i can find mouthpiece covers for an ecig? Lost mine and since i don't bother putting my ecig into a case, i usually end up with tobacco inside the mouthpiece.

LOL at the tobacco in the ecig, I got that happening for about 6 months after switching. Amazing how much tobacco is in your pockets after being a smoker.
BTW do you mean driptips? Their easy get but a carto condom fits over one if you want to keep it covered. Get some pipe cleaners to poke out 'bits' and the juice that condenses in the tip sometimes.

Good girls always have condoms in their purse

Anyone know about the ESI collection ordering process? will your goods stay in "processing" until you collect them? Didnt pick them up yesterday as it was bank holiday and i imagine they wouldnt want to be annoyed by someone so today i plan on it. maybe.

www.electronic-cigarette.ie ,,,will not be beaten on price and quality for e-juice

I did order stuff from there once and they got it wrong. also have found that everything they sell can be gotten cheaper elsewhere.
I couldn't be bothered to argue with them though so never bothered to try to fix the order.
The listings are scarily inaccurate and confused though so I just steer clear of them now. eg they have a listing at the moment with the pic of an iClear30 and the following description:
Vision vivi nova ego CE6 clearomizer

Boge CE6 (ViVi Nova)Clearomizer|Cartomizer has big capacity, colorful&transparent body with ML mark that become the hottest and the most popular this year. Especially in Europe and America,like UK,US,France,German and so on.Almost everyone owns it. Boge CE6 Clearomizer is worthy to you choice.It will makes you enjoy the fun of electronic cigarette.

They also link to a fake Dekang website in the dekang section.

Well to be honest I have only purchased juice and a few CE-4 Clearomizers.. Can't imagine they'd be beaten on cost,and with free shipping,just thought I couldn't go wrong!!! How do you know that Dekang web shop is fake? Bit worrying....

Doesn't mean its a fake site
To get a .ie domain it quite difficult you have to give a reason for why you should be able to use that name
The owner that you have said is a Dekang dealer listed on the Dekang site was able the persuade the commission that he can use that domain name, probably because he supplies that product. Just because Dekang dont own it doesnt make it a Fake site unless he is claiming to be Dekang themselves.

Take a look at the site. It's claiming to be dekang biotech, also yndekang.com confirmed to me that it's not an official site and they have gien no permission for it.

I will admit it's possible that the person at yndekang.com who responded to me simply doesn't know about it being authorized but i'd find it strange that they would allow someone to set up a site with the appearance of being an official company site and only list that one vendor as the only option for online shopping.

Thought something along those lines,,,someone made a boo boo,,, I've seen a lot of fake merchandise over the years,and to be honest the bottling alone on the Dekang vapor/juice is second to none,,from the box right through to the capping and wrapping (high quality),,as for the juice taste,, 'does exactly what it says on tin'..

I knew it was quiet around here, I now know why!

Well I for one wont be giving them a bad review,,maybe they have had some bad reviews,I dont know (please dont make me go through the 90+ pages on this thread)I would really put it down to 'teething problems'trying to hastily move in to a very rapidly moving hugely expanding market,(which I think will eventually be worth eh Billions yes BILLIONS)they can surely be forgiven for that!! anyway I've had no problem with them what so ever...
and at the risk of sounding like a 'silent' partner in www.electronic-cigarette.ie I would GIVE THEM ANOTHER GO. And unless you can show me a better alternative with free shipping in the Republic of Ireland, I'll stick with them for now.

Could u recommend some other vendors, or do u only buy from one?

e-smokeireland.eu is a trump card to any of these questions.

Some of the sea-stone reviews where absoloutly vile. Customer service is important to me and sea stone seem to have the notion that once they have your money, you're on your own. e-smokeireland.eu is much cheaper and very friendly.

No, I won't give them another go. Actually telling a customer they broke an ego battery and it wasn't their own fault is terrible. Ego batteries are known to have iffy buttons and if it arrived on the day and didn't work, they should have replaced it. (this paragraph is from another thread about sea-stone)

thebestshop and e-smokeireland. I've had fantastic customer service from both of these as well as them both being very cheap.
and in the case of TBS having next day curior post for ~€3 is awesome for me.

The efast 14500 are 700mah, the AW ones are usually a bit less. You might be able to get another brand with a higher mah but I never heard of one.

Just checked, ESI have the AW 14500, its 750mah, still pretty crap and it costs 11euro compared to 4.50 for the efast at TBS.

What Im doing is making a coil about 1.4-1.5ohm on the a7 and using it at 3.3v on an ego c. It gives about 7.5 watts. Its pretty close to the 2.5amp limit of the ego but so far I havent had any problems. Once the battery has depleted a bit I sometimes bump it up to unregulated mode(4.2v down to 3.6v).
This is over the amp limit but so far its worked.
The 1000mah ego c is the same size as the 650 twist so with the a7 its pretty stealthy.

Thinking of getting this for my spheroid. I was thinking of the Bulli Elite but I just think that mech mods aren't really for me due to the voltage drop thing. I think most of the vv mods are too big.....this seems like a nice compromise?? Same width as the spheroid I think.

What mAh are 14500 batteries? I see varying mAh numbers on google for them.

I saw that on a website, but like you was put off by the 700 mAh batteries, won't last pissing time

It's the downside to us relying on torch trends I guess, most people want their torches to be regular torch-sized.
It'll be the one upside to tobacco compnies entering the fray if they start developing larger batteries. British Tobacco could spend one week's profits on developing batteries and that's more than the US is spending on their "battery Manhattan Project" over the next five years (€127million vs €92million).

Green I presume you have checked out the ego slb at TBS. If your using a 1000mah twist the slb is only 8mm longer and 17mm in width, its a long fecker but its got a ton of features and its 1200mah.
The more I think about it.....that one at charlies aint too bad size wise if you were willing to carry around a couple of spare batteries.
