Some of you may know I have friends who have their own brand of e-cigs. They are currently moving more and more into the battery & tank set-up rather than cigalikes, and are increasing their range of liquid flavours. I was hoping that some of you could suggest types of flavour they should be thinking of trialling. Currently they tend to look at flavours they themselves think they will like, and half a dozen people isn't the widest range of tastes!

Bear in mind that these guys have the liquids made & packaged in large quantities out in China (as they do their kit), and every batch is lab tested when it comes into the UK. So a very different set up to most of the liquid shops in the UK, who mix small quantities often to order and can offer a massive range.

Currently they do 3 tobacco flavours, menthol, apple, watermelon, energy drink, a strawberry, wild cherry and blueberry. Currently trialling a grape flavour which I'm going to vote a resounding yes for them to put into production.

So guys & gals - what direction do you nest of vaping vipers think they should be looking at next? 2-3 flavours which I can recommend they trial next please.

I like sweet but not too sweet- I LOVE refreshers, but strawberry ice cream is too much. A really good custard would be yummy.

Woohoo just had an update from the mates. New order just been made for Grape, Vanilla, Pineapple and Pomegranate! My pushing could be to blame for the first 3 of those

I've reminded them about a caramel/toffee/butterscotch type flavour for the next trials.

They've also started getting the juice made in the UK and have dropped the price a fair bit - still not a cheap as some out there but the lab testing they have done isn't cheap

Allergic, remind me which site your friends have?

But the new flavours won't be on there yet I don't think, due in some time this month.

You might also ask your friends to review their claims for cigalike cartridges, there is no way that one cartridge = 20 cigarettes, and their advice about nicotine levels is nonsense.

The prestige kit, with the charging case, looks a good (but expensive) option for people who like the size of a cig-alike but not the short battery life.

I think they should ditch the stuff about the FDA - it's not relevant outside the US. They could replace it with stuff about the EU and it would be great to include a link to the EFVI. If they want to continue moving into tank systems their business will depend on sensible legislation.

Thanks ladies - I will pass on the feedback when I next see/talk to them. It's the mini tank kit I think is the best thing they do; small tanks that fit onto a cigalike type battery so you get the superior vaping advantages of a tank system but the size and weight advantages of a cigalike. I think they need to re-organise the site a bit better too - I would like to see their tank systems in the starter kit tab.

Luckily they are good enough friends that they understand that though I may ask you lovely people for feedback or suggestions, I won't constantly push their stuff for them on here. I'm of the view that what they do is good quality and I know the testing they do is very good, but they have a small range and are rather expensive. They also tend to be a fair way behind the curve, only starting to do tank systems at the end of last year.

I can't get onto their site! It keeps crashing my (first gen) iPad Sad. I don't know if it's worth you telling them, as it probably won't affect most people. But if they're interested, it gets quite a long way along, only crashing at the end; earlier today it was after I clicked the age check box, but now it's not getting quite that far.
