Pink Fizz

A glorious mix of fresh, juicy berries and crisp champagne, Pink Fizz is one to look out for!

The smell alone is primarily reminiscent of strawberries and an added zing of something very unique.

First off, I am not an alcohol fan in terms of eLiquid flavours, however, this juice is extremely pleasant. It has the perfect balance between ripe strawberry and an almost dry sense of bubbly, I found it to be an exact and precise mixture of components, to the point that neither is sickly nor overpowering.

The sweetness of the strawberry compliments the dryness of the champagne, and vice versa. In my experience, champagne eLiquids can be a little too much when it comes to attempting an all day vape. This juice is flawlessly veracious , and is extremely well balanced to the point that I can easily see it becoming one of my 'go to' vapes.

Blue Raspberry

I am a die hard Blue Raspberry fan, it is right in the middle of being sweet and candy-like, and being fruity and tart.

I have tried a fair few similarly flavoured vapes, and I must admit, there hasn't been one that I didn't like.

Safe to say, I was very much looking forward to trying out this instalment from Vapouriz.

On inhaling, I could sense a complex and supremely well concocted blend of several elements that really adds to this eLiquid's unique appeal. I could sense that it was super tangy and had a slight essence of something that resembles citrus, not unlike a sour raspberry candy.

Being a high VG juice, the cloud production was very rewarding and furthers this eLiquids pleasant nature.

Blue Raspberry, from Pocket Fuel, as a whole, is quite catchy, and strong tasting, perfect for cloud-chasers and flavour-chasers alike!

I thoroughly enjoyed this juice, and would definitely consider using it as an 'all day' styled vape!

Juice Review : The Pure Evil range from Vapouriz

Vapouriz (pronounced Vapour-rise) , is a Guildford based company that produces a wide range of vaping products, including both Classic eLiquids and Sub-ohm eLiquids as well as hardware.

All of their liquids are UK made using only UK and EU ingredients.

They very kindly sent me several liquids to review, all of which tasted excellent. Eliquids from Vapouriz are available for next day delivery – brilliant if you are desperate for some new delicious tasting juice!

The bottles of liquid that I received are all high VG, and are 3mg nicotine. 3 are from the 'Pocket Fuel' range and 3 are from the 'Pure Evil' range. They are available to purchase online at www.vapouriz.co.uk

Sloth

Straight off the bat, Sloth smells amazingly juicy and bursting with enticingly decadent fruitiness. This eLiquid is a fantastic blend of berries that makes my mouth water as I vape it. This juice is very fruity and almost a little bit tart, without being too sour, but also at the same time, not too sweet. Sloth is extremely fresh and more-ish and I found it gave my tongue a 'zing' whilst vaping.

There is a definite tone of mild sourness on inhaling, and as exhale, out comes a wholesome sweet element that really brings this vape to life.

I enjoyed the refreshing taste to it, and it was a perfect 'summer-time vape'. I appreciate the effort put into creating such an overwhelmingly fruity and delicious flavoured eLiquid. It is quite possibly one of the most invigorating flavours I have tried so far!

Lust

This was a delight to vape, it had perfectly judged flavour elements that interacted in a way that really made this juice something special. Essentially, Lust is a strawberry and custard vape that will appeal to cloud chasing sweet tooth's.

On inhaling the fruity strawberry is most noticeable, and on exhaling, the smooth and wholesome custard comes to life.

The strawberry is reminiscent of a strawberry jam , and is both tart AND smooth, by no means an easy feat to create. The custard tastes warm and sweet, not unlike the real thing. These two main components bounce off one another, and together they generate a super tasty and satisfying flavour that is very easy to vape.

To be perfectly honest, I didn't think I would go for a Strawberry Custard flavour, but I certainly enjoyed it, and I could vape on it all day long. Due to it's smooth, warm and sweet flavours, I also think that Lust would be the perfect winter time vape.

Wrath

Wrath is my favourite out of the Pure Evil range, so far. I am a huge fan of Raspberry flavoured vapes, and the added coconut really brings out the sweetness to this eLiquid.

This juice is fruity yet incredibly smooth, making it the perfect All Day Vape. It has just the right amounts of zesty raspberry mixed with creamy coconut that mellows out any bitterness you may find with the fruitier side.

On inhaling, a sweet and juicy raspberry encapsulates your mouth, and tingles the taste buds.

There is a great amount of billowy clouds on exhalation that is mainly due to the high percentage of VG in this line of juices, and not only is the vapour visually appealing, it also smells divine.

I really enjoyed this flavour from the folks at Vapouriz, and I think it would appeal to any vaper, especially to those who like fruity or sweet tasting vapes.

Great Stuff!

Juice Review : Django by 13th Floor Elevapors

An old favourite of mine, Django by 13th Floor Elevapors is an exscuisite blend of soft tobacco, creamy milk and sweet caramel. This was one of my first 'favourites' in regards to eJuices, and I have been saving on to my last bottle of it, and blimey it has aged beautifully! I went off sweet flavours for a while but have rediscovered this gem of an eLiquid!

Hardware Review - The Aspire Plato

The Aspire Plato is a truly beautiful all-in-one device that really delivers in terms of both flavour and vapour production. The RRP of this kit is, on average, ￡59.99.
The size of this device is great because it's small enough to fit in your pocket and big enough to feel substantial in your hand. Its height (including the drip tip) is 100mm,the width is 50mm and the depth is 23mm.
The Plato comes in several colours including Black, Rose Gold, Grey, Lavender, Weathered Gold, White, Pink and Blue – so no shortage of choice!
Aside from the amazing aesthetics of this device, it is magnificently practical and you can tell it is really well designed due to it's durable materials and sleek finish. .
It is capable of firing up to 50W and can be used in temperature control mode.
One of the appealing things about the Plato, is that it can be used both for mouth-to-lung inhalation (using a 1.8 ohm Triton Mini coil) as well as for direct-to-lung inhalation (using the 0.4ohm Plato coil).
The tank is made of Pyrex glass and is removable, allowing you to replace it , if it should break.The tank is able to hold up to 5.6ml of liquid when using the Triton Mini coil, and 4.6ml when using a 0.4ohm coil. It features 2 juice holes that are extremely easy to fill, and so far, I haven't experienced any leakages.
I found the Plato to be very reliable and proficient for everyday vaping, however I have a couple of things I am not 100% happy about; firstly the juice channels on the coils are a bit high up, meaning you have to fill the tank up past halfway in order to avoid dry hits. Secondly, the battery (provided with the kit) seems to drain quite quickly. I consider myself to be a heavy vaper, and one full charge lasts me about 30-50 minutes of vape time. A solution to this could be to put a battery on charge whilst using another one, and swap them around when they discharge.
There is the capability of firmware updates for this device, just connect the Plato with your computer using the Micro USB cable.

I have tried a few all-in-one devices but some leaked badly, had little or no airflow control and were not as ergonomically pleasing. So far I have never experienced such a great flavour and vapour production from an all in one kit, The Plato is easily the best AIO I have tried!

Hardware Review - Vapor Royalty – The Beast (Wicking Cotton)

After progressing through my vaping journey, I have come across plenty of different brands of cotton designed for wicking a coil, some were poor, some were average and others were fantastic.I must admit at first I had very little knowledge about all the different brands of cotton out there, I just figured cotton was cotton. As a beginner, I tried organic cotton balls from a supermarket chain, it was a horrible mistake! It tasted burnt and I think the cotton could not manage the heat from the coils. However, I recently I discovered The Beast from Vapor Royalty and found it to be lightyears ahead of my previous (and disastrous) attempts at trying out cotton.

There is a certain set of attributes one should look for when checking out cotton used for vaping, including but not limited to ;

The absorption of juice. Some can take a while to soak up whereas others take in the juice within seconds and continue to retain it.

No funny or 'cottony' aftertaste that causes the flavour of the juice to be compromised.

Ease of wicking – as some cotton can be really difficult to get to the right size for your coils successfully in a rush

Preferably organic with no additives or bleach

Price is also a big factor in choosing cotton and it all depends on where you buy it, what company supplies it and the quality of the product.

'Vapor Royalty' produce a range of 4 cottons, each one designed for different uses including temperature control, tanks and RBAs. Today I am going to review 'The Beast' which is made specially for dripping on RDAs.

The Beast is grown ethically in the USA and is not bleached nor is anything untoward added.

This product is neatly presented in a circular aluminium tin that contains a length of rolled cotton that is heat resistant, 100% Organic and Pesticide/Chemical Free.

I found this cotton to be extremely easy to roll up and insert into the coils on my RDA. I noticed that I didn't waste as much cotton as I did with other brands, because all I had to do was snip off a length of cotton, and rip it down the middle.

The cotton itself is superior in terms of its absorption, and straight away, it started to take all the drops of eliquid without leaking. It also allows you to increase the amount of inhales you can get without dry hits, due to the excellent juice holding capacity of this cotton.

Another really appealing factor of this product is the fact that I could not taste any cotton whilst vaping, nor any funky after tastes, just 100% flavour.

A tin of The Beast will set you back about £6 but it is most definitely worth it! If you haven't tried it already, you ought to. When it comes to cotton, you want a quality product that works well - and I can safely say Vapor Royalty have designed this cotton brilliantly and with fellow vapers in mind.

Hardware Review - Sigelei 213W

As a recent release from Sigelei, this mod is rather small, but still packs a very hefty punch that sets it apart from the crowd.

It's technical Specifications are as follows:

Size : 88x44x29mm

Temperature Control (between 100℃-300℃/200℉-570℉)

VW Mode (10W to 213W, in 0.1W increments)

Brass 510 spring loaded pin

Made from Carbon Fibre and Zinc Alloy

Resistance Range: 0.1Ω-3.0Ω

Dual 18650 batteries

Input Voltage 6.4V-8.4V

Output Voltage : 1.0V-7.5V

The mod is coated in carbon fibre with either gold or dark grey accents, it is aesthetically very attractive.

Even with batteries, it is quite light in weight, this may come as welcomed news to some of you, whereas others may prefer a heavier and more substantially weighted device.

In terms of performance, you can easily push it up to about 80W-100W no problem. One of the main selling points of this mod is that it can go up to 213W, unfortunately, most standard 18650 batteries won't be able to cope with the increased wattage.

The Sigelei 213W is rather unique in terms of it's 'Power Up' function, allowing you to increase or decrease the power of the vape when using RDAs or RTAs.

This allows you to automatically heat a coil quickly at a high wattage (for example 130Watts) for a split-second before it goes back to a more preferable and manageable amount of Watts (for example 75Watts). Basically, all this means is you get better performance without the drawbacks of reduced battery life, dry hits and having to wait for a coil to heat up over a longer period of time (of which could damage and over heat your coils). Consider it as a short 'boost' to your coils.

Two 18650 batteries are required to power this mod, and it features a micro-USB port (although I strongly recommend that you use a dedicated charger rather than charging via the device). Generally, I found that two 2500mAh batteries tend to drain quite quickly- especially when operating at a high wattage.

In summary, this device is as simple or as advanced as you make it, for example, you can use it with a tank at 2.0ohm but can also use it with a 0.2ohm coil on an RDA. I think that the 213W mod is easy on the eye as well as being ergonomically pleasing, it's ever so practical to fit in a pocket or handbag, and doesn't look too obvious when out in public. It is well designed in terms of it's functionality and minimalist layout.

This mod from Sigelei will set you back about $90 which,for what you are getting, is actually pretty decent.

Despite not looking like a bulky box mod, it's features are on par with the top devices out there. I really enjoyed this mod it was easy, safe and impressive.
