    The FastTech Thread For All FastTech Posts

    What the FT people were trying to tell you nicely is that your package is in the enormous waiting pile at HK security waiting its turn to be xrayed and authorized. Imagine a mountain of packages from every single supplier shipping through HK and your innocent little package somewhere in the...

    The FastTech Thread For All FastTech Posts

    Of course it is still in Hong Kong. Have you been reading all the warning posts about the clampdown by Hong Kong Post on all shipments going through its facilities? There have been half a dozen posts here at least warning us all about the much increased waiting time for shipments to be x-rayed...

    Yes, the shipping regulations have normally been on the books since 2009.

    The FastTech Thread For All FastTech Posts

    I can just imagine that FT, like all the other reseller/exporters of lithium batteries and e-liquids in East Asia, is probably pretty frantic about this enforcement of shipping regulations. If the HK airmail authority has decided to x-ray every package going through the air freight facilities...

    FT Ego-C Twist Actual and Indicated Voltage Differ?

    My three are very accurate. I really like them - well-built, good to use everyday.

    I've just created a thread about the enforced security measures that have been holding up your stuff in HK. Delays in HK are affecting everything being shipped by air from everybody. Not just FT. I think we need to watch how the situation develops and be very patient. FT can't do anything...

    Expect delays and rejections due to more stringent security measures in Hong Kong, Singapore

    This is what Geek, moderator, has posted as a sticky over on the FT forums. It may explain why our packages are being held up in Hong Kong and will be held up in Singapore, too. This is not FT's fault. It is postal service-wide. Apparently it is a regulation from 2009 being enforced now...

    For the sake of accuracy, this is what Geek has posted as a sticky over on the FT forums. So, this is not a question of 9/11. Apparently it is a regulation from 2009 being enforced now. The words "primarily" and "only" are important, in connection with what's in your packages. If you have 12...

    Why I don't like the new Aurora BFT - a newb review

    Sorry, but I need to respectfully disagree, on your estimation of the materials quality of the BFT and on your generalizations... I have the BFT in my little fist at the moment - or at least I would have, if I weren't typing - and it is VERY well made. Very good quality materials, accurately...

    Why I don't like the new Aurora BFT - a newb review

    I am leaning towards a question of how VWls draws on hers, and how often she retilts-and-fills, and whether there is a condensation build up. I'm thinking technique rather than hardware, but I may be very mistaken, obviously. I know from past posts and threads that we got ours from the same...

    Why I don't like the new Aurora BFT - a newb review

    Would this be gravity-fed? You tilt it, squeeze the bottle ever so gently, bring it upright so that the excess re-enters the bottle from above, and vape. I also find that 2 or 3 really short puffs before the long ones gets rid of any lingering gurgles at the beginning of a new series after a...

    Why I don't like the new Aurora BFT - a newb review

    I have a pretty green one, also from the UK, but am not having a gurgle-gurgle hassle. I've just taken mine out again to see if I can MAKE IT GURGLE, and I have been able to: if I tilt-fill it too often, before all the liquid from the previous fill was used up, and if the vapour condenses in...

    Why vapers are never satisfied: A Theory.

    His review is what really, really made me order mine. He's so right on about the Aurora. Absolutely right on. It's great fun. The only reason I'm using mine sparingly for the moment is that nobody has any spare parts for it yet. So if something breaks or gets lost...ugh, I don't want to think...

    Why vapers are never satisfied: A Theory.

    Yes, I have one...it's a really cool little guy and is very satisfying both from a vaping and the "pretty-shiny-brand new gadget" points of view. In my case, I kinda wonder which point of view predominates...:laugh: I have a bad case of OCD SOS (shiny object syndrome).

    ITaste MVP?

    I really enjoy my MVP, bought from FT. I've had it since the beginning of August. I got the slate blue one, and like the way it looks very much, but I imagine it is a question of personal taste. I like its size and feel. It fits nicely into my going-around Ego case. I'd buy a second one as a...

    Sorry for your frustration. Did you know you can ask them to send your order in 2 packages, if something is holding it up and you don't want to wait? Just contact support on the order page. They'll do it with no problem and it saves hassles.

    fasttech?

    FT has consumer reviews and a forum too where you can ask questions about any product you're interested in. Good source of info. I've been pleased with almost all of my purchases, vaping-related or not. When I received a leaking vivi nova, customer service made it right. My Innokin stuff and...
