This store has got tons of great stuff... some of it over-priced but loads of it is totally reasonable. Especially when you consider you'll get your stuff in 2-3 business days for 2500 won delivery fee (or free if you order enough)...

They've got a huge selection of all kinds of mods and DIY material, a decent range of carto selection - not just Smoketek 510 stuff. 1.25 ohm LR dual cartos? 808D/901 dual cartos?

I just ordered a silver Bolt with 18650 extender included... cheaper than any US store (after considering delivery charge)... enjoying with my 2.0 dual cartos from the same shop... and the carto tanks are nice... huge selection of drip tips... really digging the acrylic and plastic ones...

No, I'm not advertising for them... but they're my new preferred source of cartomizers, that's for sure.

Take a look.

I can't get to it from my work computer, but do they have AW IMR batts by chance? I can find plenty of unlabeled/unprotected batteries in the right size here, but not the good stuff.

AWs? Hm. They do have a bunch of batteries in various sizes. I myself got an 18650 Efest battery (with a fire logo behind the "brand" name)... but it's IMR Li-Mn... and I guess that's good.

I've tried understanding all this talk of batteries, but I thought AW was just a seller's name here at ECF... most of Mistmall's batteries seem to be Trustfire/Ultrafire... After days of trying to understand what the heck... I just ordered Panasonic CGR18650CH from Led Flashlight-International Outdoor Store which everybody seemed to be raving about and I like to jump on bandwagons...

BTW I had to get a Korean's National ID number, though since (as usual) it doesn't recognize non-Hangul names...

Care to clarify what AW means for me? And tell us if Mistmall does indeed carry them?

One thing I would also like to note is that I've taken my multimeter to a a few of Mistmall's dual cartos and so far the 1.5, 2.0, and 2.5's are all dead on. I mean, dead on. Maybe 0.1 ohm variance since my multimeter has 0.3-0.4ohm resistance in the leads... I'm not used to seeing cheap cartos with such a decent accuracy in that department. Which is awesome because I am really loving the 2.0 ohms on the Bolt.

AW's are a brand, if I remember correctly the batteries are actually made by Panasonic. The difference is that AW has higher standards, so they kick back any batts that aren't up to spec. General sellers just slap their logo on something and off it goes. In the IT world it's the same reason that most will go with Corsair (or a few other leading suppliers) RAM over generic RAM, they're made in the same place but you're guaranteed quality with Corsair and hit and miss with generic.

AW is definitely not just an ECF seller, they're one of the best in the industry (battery industry that is). Panasonic is generally a good choice, the xxxfire's not so much.

AW is Andrew Wong, and he is a distributor for mainly Panasonic cells, although he does not have an actual retail company operation, from my understanding. AW batteries are indeed higher quality cells and are trusted not only in the vaping community but also in the flashlight community as well.

For ordering batteries, check out this thread: NEW *AW Battery Importers & Exporters of America* (Shipping Worldwide)

The guy is Wonderlite and he has a great selection of batteries. Shipping is also VERY reasonable.

I would avoid getting batteries here in Korea only because I do not want to risk getting counterfeits. If you really want to buy from within the country, I have seen some legit panasonic protected batteries from some online flashlight retailers. Here is one of them: ÈÄ·¹½¬ÀÇ ¸ðµç °Í, ÅäÄ¡±â¾î¿¡ ¿À½Å °ÍÀ» ȯ¿µÇÕ´Ï´Ù~

I ordered my XTAR charger from this place. Quick service.

I talked with him, he'll use FedEx for us so if you need good batts that's probably the best way to go right now.

I'm gonna give a bump for this shop again... because I love it.

The dual-coil tanks they send me are marked DCT-2 2.0ohm... which means LESS FILLER! Awesome. The tanks they sell are also the high quality and beautiful.

I've also ordered rebuildable stuff from them, including a rebuildable atomizer (not so fun but it works), some wire (a wee bit expensive), and I'll be playing with what appears to be an ego-T style rebuildable later (this one has one strand instead of 2)... They even sell what appears to be a Genesis-style rebuildable made of stainless steel and plastic.

And here's something that's curious. They also have the Smoketek Telescop, a transformable mechanical-switch battery mod. And it's cheap.

Seriously guys, it's about time Korea had a supplier that wasn't charging a markup of 400%.

mistmall.. interesting

Checked this website out, looks good for hardware but I wouldn't know how to put an order through. Also the juice they sell is nic-free ;P

[darkpoet]

Yup. The 30/70 PG/VG mix is the only liquid I've ordered. It's really good. And their hardware is great. Most of it decently priced, too (when you factor in import/delivery cost of others) You need to register under a Korean's name, unfortunately. I used my girlfriend's ID at the time. They are constantly expanding their selection, too. Unlike a lot of sellers, even US ones, they update their site frequently to reflect actual stock. God, I hate getting excited at Madvapes or Gotvapes or others just to see "currently out of stock." Still my number one site for hardware.
