    The FastTech Thread For All FastTech Posts

    Yes,we do sometimes, but it's usually only once every 3 or 4 years. It always causes total chaos since we are NOT NOT NOT prepared for it. Everything closes even for 10 or 15 cms. This morning I swear we've had 30 cms or more. Given that a lot of us don't have central heating, it is also REALLY...

    The FastTech Thread For All FastTech Posts

    Now I feel like a complete, utter meany, but reading about people's constant dissecting of their shipping tracking notices is absolutely mind-numbingly boring. And since no one reads from even 10 pages back, it serves no real purpose, it would seem. There are only 2 outcomes with any shipping...

    Wow, it's that good?? I am VERY impressed! Mine isn't expected here for another week, if our Customs doesn't keep it for a while. Enjoy!:vapor:

    I got a great big pile of vapemail yesterday, but haven't been able to play with it yet. Some of it is for colleagues, some for me: 1. a 10000 mAH solar battery backup pack, which I think will be a help in power outages - it works with my tablet, phone, mvps etc. I can't test the solar...

    17Track does track SGP. However, SGP does not always work. It tends to be overloaded, so that 17Track shows an error. Just be patient and refresh the tracking in a couple of hours. It's a problem with SGP, not 17Track. I did make a promise never to mention shipping again... oh well, the next...

    And if you get a drip tip adapter - $1.67 iClear16/CE4/CE5/CE6 to 510 Drip Tip Adapter at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping you could use that tip with the mini-clearo or any other ce4 type. These adapters are great. Very, very useful. Hmmn, the pipe mod is looking more and more...

    Oh well, I've tried...:) In the final analysis, if you want to think it's 'free', so be it. It isn't, it is included in the cost of the item, but what does it really matter if you are convinced it's 'free'. Their business model covers shipping and handling, not to worry. This being said, I am...

    What you want to think of as 'free shipping' is in fact factored into the selling price of the item - a set number of cents per dollar on any given item. Thus the $15 minimum order for trackable parcels ( 15 x X cents = minimum necessary). So, whether you split your $100 order into 4...

    That would be a great solution, and there are already whole threads dedicated to shipping down in the FT social group section. But I'm afraid we're crying in the wilderness...the funny thing is, once people get their packages, they don't always come back and tell everyone about their...

    Inawera- a few reviews

    Hello everyone! I hope you won't mind a new soon-to-be Inawera user joining you... Thanks to this thread, I've ordered a bunch of fruit flavours to try out (Watermelon, WG Peach, Raspberry, Mango, Lime, Black Cherry, WG Lemon Mix, WG Orange) and some of their VGP base. It all should be arriving...

    Anyon tried Iclear 30S?

    I use the one that came with my VTR and like it, better than the original iClear 30. Easy top filling. It doesn't gurgle or whistle like PTs, and produces a nice warm, flavourful vapor. I changed the drip tip for one that was more comfortable for me. While I don't use it as much as I could, I...

    Common sense and full awareness of battery safety is always a good way to go. You don't want a battery accident to happen. When the battery pack is opened (and believe me, that is not as easy as it sounds) you will find that the batteries are connected with soldered tabs that need to be...

    Uh, I hate to break this to you, but you do pay for postage. It is included in the price of the item, just like any other seller offering 'free' postage when you hit a given order total. So it isn't costing FT more to ship multiple packages to you. And before the conspiracy theorists arrive in...

    I've done this. I had an old unusable Toshiba laptop and took the battery pack apart last weekend. Very carefully, and following the instructions you can find on the net. I 'harvested' 8 perfectly useable Sony US18650GR batteries. I had them checked for safety and condition by an electrician...

    Out of Curiosity...MVP, VTR, and Similiar Box Mods

    I have both and use both. I have 2 MVPs which I alternate for use outside in public, and my new little SVD. Ref is right about battery change needing 3 seconds max on the VTR. The MVPs are dead useful as well for charging my cellphone. Both types are excellent buys. I have had the MVP v.1...

    You are joking about the boat, I assume? :) When SGP says it is despatched, it is on a plane heading in your direction, with only your Customs and your own postal service as further obstacles. Yes, your Customs and postal service may decide to keep it for as long as they wish.

    Quantium only concerns SGP, so you won't ever get any info about HK from it. :) Sorry, Scope beat me to it.
