Just had the Kanger KBOX delivered today, what a wicked little tool. Really nice size for your pocket.

Great vape on 20W and it goes way up to 40W!

Takes an 18650 battery so no messing about with USB charging.

Highly recommend.

Looks a great mod Norman,i will end up getting one soon(try and get money worth out of kit i have ) But it looks a nice mod,always prefer mods that can swap the cells rather than self contained..............find end up vaping pugged in with those............

I am yet to use over 32w on any tank ,normally around the 20-25w for most 0.5ohm coils for a consistent vape for heavy use

The only juice i've been able to comfortably vape at 20W's all the time has been yours and some of the other TW flavours, a lot of them just don't work for me when sub ohm'd

Also yknow you mentioned if you make up 5ml of juice you need to start counting drops instead? how come? in the calc for 18mg content its 1ml of nic, 1.5ml each of dilutent and 1ml of flavour which you can measure out with a syringe right?

Ratios certainly are crucial when the ohms get low, I recieved a bottle of Thug Juice that wasn't full, luckily I'd had a 250ml bottle before and knew it was odd. Got in touch with Cloudhouse and they were really quick to send another bottle as the ratios could be out, of course I vaped it, man it was strong, it was only 20-25ml out. Started on the new bottle today and it's glorious even on my 2 week old multi flavoured head.

Going to buy some VG from Tesco to dilute the off one.

I have a £3 meal deal addiction, don't like to talk about it. Waitrose most evenings, it's close enough to use it as a fridge.

Well after nearly two weeks of no vaping and no stomach issues, I thought I'd try some vapegreen 100% VG e juice. I had no more than 5 'puffs' and within 30 minutes I could feel my stomach 'bubbling' away again. And this morning I had the usual cramps and had to rush to the toilet. That was on 12mg.

Don't know what to do now.

Going to my local juice shop at lunch today as he has some 80/20 e-juice which comes in 3 or 6mg.
He did actually say to me that nothing will be 100% vg as the pg is needed for flavouring. Don't know how true that it!
I have around 20 bottles now that I just cannot use, so if anyone wants a good deal, let me know!

Hopefully, I'll find something that works as I have slipped back to having 1 or 2 ciggys a day.

VG or PG that's bad? First paragraph you're getting bottom burps on VG, then you're looking for more VG later.

Don't think so. Tried different juices from different suppliers.

It could be that my stomach just can't absorb it.

I did have food poisoning back in 2000 and my stomach has not been the same since.

Will keep trying but have the ****s for 2 months was not fun or something I wish to go through again!

I still don't know what your looking for 100% VG or PG? You said 100% VG gave you the trots then said you were looking for 100% VG.

Been using 50/50 since I started.

Just tried 100% VG which is no better on my gut.

Well my local ECig shop said they reckon that it is the strong Nicotine levels that are not agreeing with me. So I will try an 8mg juice and go from there. Let's just says that today, I have had to keep one eye on the toilet!

Yes,more for convenience tbh,you can make 5ml,but the beaker is in ml,so for example(just an example and by no means a specific recipe ) 3.5ml of pg/ag then 1ml of nic and 0.5ml of flavour becomes a pita to get right. The drips on the side of the beaker once mixed and poured out,over time settle to 2-3ml in bottom of a 50ml beaker, hence a little awkward to get spot on.

Correct,using a syringe is easier but again,you need a larger needle as fluid more biased to AG is a little thicker,this becomes difficult to push out...... Then again issue of remaining ml or so in syringe. I would say 10ml is easiest small amount to make.

As you know i make 50ml a time,4 times for 2x100ml bottles. I could make 250ml bottle but cba so to separate 10ml off or 30ml in my case is easy. I enjoy vaping,but enjoy that more than making,i want the process as user friendly for me,less time etc as possible.

Gear Head,pm me your add,i will mke you some bubble gum and send more than likely next week for you to try as i did bioforger. It will be a 50/50 mix of pg/ag and bubble gum flavour.

I dont know what brand your using,could be something a specific brand,could be PG or VG intolerance or both,so to eliminate and not give up just yet i will send you some juice to try.........nothing to loose if your happy.

Too add,i dont lung my vape,i breath it in but keep in head if makes sense,then blow out. With ecigs although its natural to lung coming from cigs,there is no actual need and still get your nic hit by this method.............just a thought and maybe worth a try.

In short,it does not go near my lungs,if it does its very very minimal. All in my head man ..............:-)

Too add,did you have this with cigs,if not i would rule nicotine out regarding levels.

If you want a specific strength then let me know via pm if you agree to me making you some..

Mine is 18mg or 1.8% depending on where you buy and how they describe % of nic

Great advice. This is something I've been adopting since getting the sub tank or trying to I should say.

It can be hard to adjust ,more so for heavy smokers or .......well smokers tbh.

My boss smokes lights,she takes one drag on mine and coughs her guts up

"how the *beep* do you smoke that crap" etc


"dont lung it,just breath in,hold,blow out"

Second vape easier.........bare in mind its not "normal" vape stuff......

On a tornado with a 2.4ohm coil with 18mg cherry,she does well for a few days..............

Yes try,practice,soon gets to be the norm Jack,once in habit its just like anything else. The tanks i have,sub ohm,if i lunged them..........well my lungs would be coming out of my ***

Down side..........well there always is,but a small price to pay if works. You do tend to use more,i mean it is practically in my hand all the time other than sleep and work .......and no actually exclude the latter


It really is hard to recommend a product,flavour etc as everyone has different tastes..........in more than 1 way. Like recommending a book or film(yes strange analogy) but how many times has someone said watch " ****** " and its utter crap

Hi Ven

Thanks for your offer. I may take you up on it.
Tried a low 6mg menthol juice last night from my local shop but have had bad cramps again today.

I have a suspicion that I have an issue either with the sweeteners that are used or the nicotine itself.

So I have just bought some £1 E-Juice to try from their website.

1 x Unflavoured 18mg juice
1 x Very Berry 0mg juice

At least that way I can rule one or the other out.

Fingers crossed!

Good luck,iirc there are around 5 ingredient(chemicals so to speak) .Just finding which is the issue. See how you go,tell me what % and can make some specific to you. Could be actual flavour....... but manufactures flavour. Hope this is case then it may just be simply using a different brand.

One i use is
http://www.totallywicked-eliquid.co....e-product.html

I also use a vg nicotine concentrate,could be the PG in the nicotine mix(in pre mixed fluids bought previous) that could still be the cause..........just a thought

The very thought of ever smoking those things again.

A few weeks back went off into town and forgot my vape, ended up buying 10 Regal, forgot just how bad the vile taste and the stink on your clothes/hands was.

nice 1 bioforger,seriously no looking back now

Use 50ml beaker,use this calc
http://www.c9v-forum.com/Resources/Calc/calc.htm

Set bottom to what ml you want,rest to 72mg nic as kit said

You decide on what the diluent % is,you had 50/50 off me so 1/2 what ever the ml shows. Once mixed in beaker,just put in a bottle and shake...........

Job done.......


You will need more flavours,this code last till end of week(fri)
1MAR19 for 19% off purchases,however on TW they have the orange top flavours on yoyo,so watch for a dip for a big saving


Any Qs fire away or pm

Simple rule,if making 50ml and using 20% flavour,then its 10ml,dependent on nic strength will decide how much diluent to finish mix off.

Too add,save some larger bottles once used,or once 1/2 way through the pg/ag,just pour into one bottle and shake,you now have 100ml pre mixed diluent..........simple as that. I know have a couple of pre-mixed 50/50 250ml bottles at the ready.
