Welcome to the re-wick of r/VapingUK

The basis of r/VapingUK is to offer a safe place for all to discuss things related to nicotine vaping through hand checks, coil shots, experiences with hardware, tanks and the like as well as to help new users enjoy the world of vaping.

We ask that you be kind and friendly to all members, please follow the rules listed in the side bar.

Totally Wicked Delivery

Hi, I was wondering if Totally Wicked require ID upon receiving deliveries? I know they verify your age when you purchase, but I'm not sure I'll be home to accept the delivery and I can't find any information on whether I need to be here to sign for it / show ID.

Edge Pro Coils - Anywhere not sold out?

https://www.edgevaping.com/products/edge-pro-coils#

Any users of these found any places to buy them? There's been availability issues for a while on them from their website.. Searched through the first few hits of sites on Google, but everywhere is sold out including eBay. Just seeing if anyone's managed to find a source that still has stock?

Xros 3 VG/PG

Hi, I'm new to using a pod style device. I've got xros 3 which I'm really happy with so far. I'm using the pod it came with, which I think is 0.6 ohm. I have loads of coil star shortfills, which when made up are 75VG 25PG. Will this liquid be OK to use, with this pod in this device? Thanks

Best quality 50/50 shortfill?

Like the title suggests what would you say the best 50/50 shortfill brands are? Please no shortfills that have ice or that taste like disposables, really not a fan. I’m vaping unreal raspberry red atm so something similarly tasting would be kl,but it’s 70/30 and I’d like to switch to 50/50. Thanks

Just bought a Vaporesso XROS Pro - 0.4 ohm wattage setting and airflow?

Hi all,

I’ve just purchased my first non disposable vape system and i was wondering if anybody could help me with any settings?

It has come with some 0.4 ohm pods and I was wondering what wattage setting most people use, and what preference people have when it comes to the airflow?

Currently using it on 20W and the airflow set to the middle, and I’ve noticed that it’s making me cough so much, whereas normally with my disposable Elfbar I rarely get choked up.

Any advice would be great!

IVG salts bottles unopenable?

Pretty much what the title says. I have here two bottles of IVG nic salts liquids and neither of them will open, they're unused. Anyone got any tips before I give up and stab them?

Xros 4 running very warm

Trying to move on from disposables to something cheaper and more sustainable, I recently got an Xros 4 with 0.4 Ohm pods. I'm using the elux 10mg juice, and it's really flavourful (better than any disposable I've used) but it's running very hot. If I only just put the mouthpiece against my lips (which is what I usually do with disposables) it's actually burning my lips, and even when I put my lips around the base of the mouthpiece it's still very warm and not as pleasant as using disposables.

Would moving to a higher ohm coil help this? Maybe the 0.8 ohm coil. A friend told me the 0.4 ohm coils are best which is why I've gone with those, but I'm finding I'm still using disposables more than my Xros because they run colder. Would they also use less juice, because this thing is also eating through that stuff very quickly?

Nic salt question

Hi all, beginner here and had a question I couldn’t find the answer to.

Would switching from 20mg to 10mg Nic salts reduce this harsh throat hit I’m experiencing?

Tried a number of Nic salts from different companies (bar juice, dinner lady, wick liquor, elfliq)

Getting decent flavour from these but having a pretty harsh almost scratchy throat hit and looking to reduce this… (didn’t experience this with disposables I tried)

Currently using: Xros 4 mini 0.8ohm 3ml side fill pods (have also tried 0.4 and 1.0)

DTL on a MTL set up

What are the risks/problems with this? What's the deal?

I have a VooPoo Drag Q with auto coil recognition, simultaneous airflow & power adjustment & power limit protection. Current set up is 1.2 ohm with 50/50 and 6mg nicotine. Ignoring the nicotine which I can sort out, what's the risk of DTL with the 1.2ohm coil? Or a 1.0ohm?

I know the nic hit is greater with DTL due to the increased volume inhaled, but I'm struggling to work out why a person can't just DTL on 1.2 ohms. I find myself DTLing naturally. Obviously I know it's not full DTL because airflow is restricted. But would I be burning through juice faster? Wearing the coil out faster? Battery? Cooking my lungs? Or otherwise bad for the device? Or is it just a case that it's better with lower resistance?

By DTLing I'm only talking about the draw,I don't know if I've just oversimplified DTL/RDTL in my mind.

Can I use 5050 with 0.5ohm coil?

Device came with 0.5ohm could and 1.2ohm. I've been using the 1.2 ohm.

When it comes to changing coils. Oill be buying more 1.2s probably but don't want to see the 0.5 go to waste.

Can I just use it with my 5050 juice?

Do you shake or do some rotate thing with your liquid?

I haven’t been doing this and am finding first few mls have no flavour and last few are super intense. Going to try rotating liquid a few times before topping up next time. Wondering if others do the same. Sorry if it’s a silly question.

Geekvape Aegis Solo 3 vs Voopoo Solo 3?

New to this style of vaping as I’ve only ever vaped disposables. But I’ve been looking into the Geekvape Aegis Solo 3 or the Voopoo Solo 3 both with a built in battery. But what’s best for a beginner of these type of vapes? And pros and cons of each? Any help would be appreciated x

WS-23 help

Hello, total novice here trying to make the switch from disposables. Got some amazing advice here looking for a refillable vape so I’ve recently purchased the Vaporesso XROS 4 Mini. Really struggling with the flavours - tried my usual Gold Bar Lemon Ice Nic Salt liquid and wasn’t a fan. Finally found a flavour I like - Bar Juice 5000 White Peach Razz Ice Nic Salt - however I really don’t like how warm the draws feel? I’ve done a bit of research and read about WS-23 and that it gives that icy hit similar to disposables. Does anyone know if I’m able to mix this with the above liquid? Thanks!

Can anyone help with a couple questions about my kit?

  1. Vaporesso Target 100, Zenith 2 0.8 coil, 16 watts. All works fine and then as I'm pulling on it, it will sometimes stop and say "over time". I've not hammered it, it just doesn't want to give any more. Do I need something with more power?

  2. Same kit. My Zenith 2 is working fine and all well sealed. Then it will starting gurgling and I know what's coming next. It spills it guts out like a MoFo and leaks through the air vent at the bottom. I then need to take it apart, clean it up and put it back together again. This seems to happen every couple of days. I had it upright on my bedside cabinet one night and woke to a vape that had pissed itself everywhere overnight. Anyone else had this? Any thoughts?

Much appreciated.

Vape juice and coil for MTL and RDTL

Hello everyone.

Just wondering if there is sole overlap here? New to vaping and have bought a pod kit (Drag Q). Want to try RDTL and I'm wondering if there is any crossover.

Eg can I use 70/30 on a 0.5 or 0.7 coil and decrease wattage and airflow for MTL?

Or can I use 50/50 on a 1.2 and increase wattage and airflow?

I know I'd have to take nicotine into account.

If the answer is no I'll likely just stick to MTL but I find my self naturally drawing into the lung anyway. Hence the question.

Cheers
