Does anyone else find that they are more addicted to these than cigs? Mine's like a lollipop, can't leave it alone, lol. Golden Virginia is my favourite up to now.
Been on the e-cig since April 22nd and feel quite proud of myself seeing as I thought I'd never stop. Didn't think much of the atomizers though, and went through 4 in 6 weeks. Didn't feel like I was getting a "hit" off them somehow. One minute they worked, next they didn't and I found it frustrating. I changed to an Ismoka cartomizer last week for £14.99 which includes 3 coils. 1 x 1.8ohms, 2.2ohms and 2.5ohms. They heat the liquid up from the bottom instead of the side. Each coil is supposed to last around 4 weeks like the atomizers are supposed to do and these are all you replace so should work out cheaper. The coil heads are £9.99 for a pack of 5(?) I think from the shop, although their website is dearer. Find these loads better and up to now have had no problems. The only thing is they burn the liquid faster than a normal atomizer, but at least you get a decent hit from them.
The shop (Smoke Electronic Cigarettes) is on Manchester Road, Droylsden, opposite Edge Lane tram stop.

I do that too pmsl, my brother noticed it about 3 months in he goes "you've never got that thing out of your mouth", told him, "better than smoking"...
I've tried those that you can unscrew and change the head on, and it leaked. "Must be tighter" I thought, so I screwed it on so tight that it killed a battery! It was good before that though, but they don't last as long either, where I get 3-4 weeks out of a normal clearo I only got a few days out of the replacement head. For a decent hit the best thing I've used is the variable voltage twist batteries, I paid £20 for a single battery and charliebigspuds has full VV kits with 2 batteries, charger and 2 clearos for £35, tap him up.
The ohm resistance of the coils doesn't matter so much when you can change the voltage of the battery. I use, with a normal 1.8ohm clearomiser, voltage about 4.1. Regular ego batteries are normally about 3.3V.
Clearos are about £3 each if you buy a few of them at the same time online (or off chaz). They do give up in the end though, when I first bought one the bloke in the shop said fill it with water, shake it up and it cleans it, still only lasted another few days though and you notice it when you put a new one on. I've got about 25 old ones at home!
