A bleddy noob with questions and looking for recommendations

[Rhubarbcob]

Hi all,

So I have had my G-priv 2 for about a week with the xbaby tank it comes with. Since swapping out the pre-installed .4 ohm coil to the t6 .2 ohm coil I am getting much fuller flavour. I am disappointed with the long drip tip though and will be looking to swap this out. recommendations welcome.

My favourite flavours so far have been sweet fruity flavours. I have particuarly enjoyed the v-juice: vimto, cherry cola and pink lemonade from my go-to B&M in Nottingham. I have been picking these up for my Smok 22 pen which I was using before at 3x10ml for £10. Problem is the g-priv and xbaby is thirsty and I would like to move on to buying some adv in 50ml shortfill bottles and adding a nic shot, for convenience and to save a few pennies.

I do not yet have the confidence to buy and mix my own juice. So my first question is whether there is a recommended brand/online shop which are good on price and flavour for this?

I thought I didn't like dessert flavours but a good friend of mine has swapped his avacado rdta (is that right?) for a boxed smok 22 pen which I bought as spare and filled it with some 'Fryd fried banana juice' and WOW!! I think i'm sold. I have then made the noob error of filling it with cherry cola the day after and its a funny taste. I assume what I need to do now is re-wick it because I have read that you should only really swap out with similiar flavour groups.

I will at some point persist with the rdta as I believe ultimately it will give me fuller flavour but again i'm not that confident and at least for a short time I will stick with the xbaby. Even when I do go to the rdta I will probably stick with pre-made coils.

I'm also in the market for a more stealthy vape device which will be more acceptable for vaping indoors and on a break at work and would welcome recommendations.

So some questions/looking for recommendations:
1. Go to online stores/brands for price and flavour and ideally with 50ml shortfill options which I can add an 18mg nic shot
2. Cheapest place for replacement t6 coils for my xbaby. Also are there any non smok options which will fit and give decent performance that may save me some money?
3. Where to pick up cheap quality pre-made coils for the avacado?
3. How best to clean my coils if I am swapping flavour groups
5. Recommended stealthy device for indoors/at work.
6. Recommended drip tip replacement for the x-baby
7. Any affordable tool kits for fiddling with rebuildables for when I take the plunge. Also in the market for a small carry case for my kit if anyone can recommend.

I realise I have asked a lot of questions. If anyone could offer there inisght into any of the above I would be most grateful.

Merry Christmas

Shortfills...large choice but what do you think of as 'cheap'? My favourite flavours may not suit as they're tobacco, maple, nuts etc. I don't know much about the fruity or sparkly end of the spectrum. But....as an example, Manabush make premium quality goods, in shortfills to boot. Whether you'd like their taste palette, can't say, obviously.

Pre-made coils. Lots. From our own member Smut (hand not machine made) who makes real goodies (PM him) to companies like Geek Vape, Demon Killer et al....just Google 'pre made coils'....

You'll also find machine pre-mades on Amazon, for example.

Tips? Don't know your tank, but tips are easily available from a lot of online sites. Drip Tip Store on Amazon is worth a browse for more common alternatives.

And for both of the above, Chinese companies like Fast Tech and Gear Best can be a real treasure trove, often significantly cheaper.

Vape Club and Ecigone have the coils for £9.99 - they work out to under £8 form FT so it's not a big saving, but they're likely to have a discount code before Christmas so it would be worth stocking up:

These are the best coils I've found for rebuildables:

And I have these tips in every tank with an 810 fitting:

I've just checked, GINGERBREAD gets 15% off everything.

Have you looked at perhaps mixing larger quantities?

These guys are great if you want to mix your own but don't want to muck about with different concentrates

Thanks guys. Got a new drip tip from my local B&M which is much better than the stock one on the xbaby. Will check out vapeclub and ecigone too for coils ty. I like the look of fasttech and will place an order but slightly worried about fakes.

For e-liquid shortfills I'm hoping to get some decent shortfill bottles at around a tenner. Think i'm gonna stick to sweet and fruity flavours at the moment as the dessert ones are too sickly after a while.
