Felicitations!

I believe the viva nova took aspire bvc coils (the small ones which are good up to 60vg but shine at 50/50. Would be good for mtl but the point is it will take other tanks I believe. As long as you have a decent quality 18350 cell.
(We can direct you to ecolux or torchy later for these).
By all means wait for crewella to pop in. They've been on sale for a few weeks now I'm sure there's no rush but I know quite a few used them and crewella liked hers.

Okay will do...stuck the link in me favourites for now.

You made a good point there....the Aspires I have built in batteries...so I not looked at rechargeable cells yet...from what I've gathered on those....best to get them from reputable brands, cheap ones best avoided.

Mmmm..40/60VG is nice! Smoother than 50/50...I'm fogging up the living room nicely!

Thanks for all your help chaps and erm...chapesses? Can't tell from the avatars!



Shall return later...time for lunch! Stay cool vapers!

Absolutely. Fogstar and 18650 uk are your first stop. Both are excellent and can be messaged on here with any questions. For the smaller 18350 cells ecolux and torchy the battery boy are excellent stockists.
Avoid next day batteries. Not a reputable dealer.
Fogstar and 18650UK can sort out chargers from about a tenner too.

Hi and welcome to the planet, hope you enjoy the journey and congratulations on giving up the coffin nails.

A lot of us on the forum use Chinese vendors for our vape gear, as the savings can be huge compared to high street prices. Check out Fasttech and Gearbest, these are very popular.

As for refilling your Nautilus 2, I place a little hex tool (they come free with a lot of rebuildable tanks) into the air hole, putting your thumb on that gives you extra purchase and easily comes apart.

There's far more cutting edge gear out there but.for a pipe experience they still seem popular.

Aye, looking forward to checking them out. At this point, i'm looking for a decent priced (can't argue with Kamry's prices at the moment!), easy to fill, use and maintain....and if it has an electronic switch in it, then all the better. I'm sure a lot of you time honoured vapers out there are used to mech devices, but i'm not to sure about them yet. I've seen on You Tube, videos of the horrific injuries inflicted on folks using them.

Coffin nails! lol! That's a new one on me!

Heya Myashey


Interesting....Hex keys.....another thing to check out!

Yep, that Nautilus 2 can be a tad tight to unscrew, but it's a nice tank, with coil I've got in at the moment. I'll look into those, thanks.

Gee...ain't there a hell of a lot stuff to take in on vaping?! Fun though! I can well see why it's becoming extremely popular......wonder how many years has traditional tabbocco has got left, before it's finally given the boot? 20 years?

Here's hoping our government doesn't decide to ramp up taxes on this trend.....i'm enjoying the cost savings!

Hello and welcome @theDuke

Yes, as @Rob says I loved the Kamry K1000 e-pipes and still have 5 of them ....... though I don't use them so much these days due to the fact that the 18350 batteries that run them don't last all that long. I do still use a Smok Guardian 3 as it takes an 18650 and also has a screen, fundtionally it's great ....... but it's not exactly elegant, weighs a ton and looks like a shower head!

I've kept hold of the Kamry K1000s as I loved them and always hoped someone would bring out better batteries in that size ... and it does look as though Aspire may have done so - I'm about to investigate. Like most e-pipes that I started with, the K1000 is a mech, but later editions always came with a chip insert to protect against short-circuits and battery overheating. There's lots of info here, and I have bought from this site - not the cheapest but a trustworthy seller and a mine of useful info:

Funnily enough, I've just ordered the Kamry K1000 Plus from China - I'll post thoughts when I get it. I always did dump the tanks these e-pipes came with and put my own on, either rebuildable or a good stock coil MTL tank like the original Nautilus Mini (great size for an e-pipe).

That should keep you busy for a bit, but if you need anything just shout!

Hi @theDuke , welcome to the forum! I’ve been thinking about an e-pipe as well, I’m waiting to hear what @Crewella has to say about this kamry plus.

If you like the mtl style, you’ll no doubt get into rebuildable tanks at some point, theee are limited stock coil rank but quite a few very good rebuildable ones. It’s not hard to build coils and the experience most people would probably agree is better (maybe partly because there’s more choice there). But if that’s the way for you you’ll find yourself going that way in good time, I’m sure.

Nice one getting off the fags. That’s nearly a year and a half for me and I’ve honestly not felt better in years.

If I'm honest, I've always been a bit wary of the K1000 Plus as I don't tend to like mods that you have to charge by USB - I much prefer to carry a spare battery and swop over. I'm also not sure how the power regulation will work ... as there are some electronics in the Plus. However, it's a very good looking e-pipe .... I decided that I'd try to strip out the workings and turn it back into a mech like the originals if I don't like how it vapes!
