anyone done business with fastech?

[Moderated] i thought it was too good to be true. I made 6 orders with this place and got 4 of them. but the postage is slow so I missed the paypal refund period 6 weeks and still waiting. Back to vaporbreak for me I think. At least they post same day and i get a tracking number. If Vaporbreak can get a few more products they will kick fasttech. Their juice is pristine and a beter buy in large orders. Althought if I order bigger vaporbreak is a better deal usually. Does any one know about cheapezy. A friend tells me they are new and the hangsen is genuine and great. 10ml Hangsen sample e-liquid (Fruit flavor) - CheapEZY Had it with fastech these days.

Ego batteries are allowed for shipping since they are part of a "electronic power device"....and since they are not a seperate ONLY battery like a D cell type battery..the problem has been that regardless of whats in the package, HK Customs has been allowing some things and NOT allowing others, with or without batteries or liquids...

BTW..I have NEVER seen price changes or fluctuations like U mentioned....been same prices for months for their products..

and if slow shipping is a problem , ,then U better not buy from anyplace in China..and we all know when we ordered that shipping has delays for over 5 weeks now, but was never fast like buying from your hometown vape shop..

and if U have a beef with FT, U do NOT have to go to Paypal...just open a ticket with FT, and they will resolve any legitimate complaints U have..

FastTech - Gadgets and Electronics and they have free world wide shipping

Fasttech has been crappy for my last few orders. Ordered an Astro clone and it's missing the telescopic tube. Then they ask me if I wanted the replacement on my next order. That's crazy!!

YMMV.

I purchased atomizers on September 26, 2013. It has been 27 business days. And 39 calendar days. Tracking indicates item is at post office only an hour from my house. Fasttech is not doing anything about it. I hate fasttech.

if its in your own country and 1 hour away at the post office, then U call the post office...don't expect FT to do that..they have nothing to do with your country's customs or laws...and if it gets returned to FT, then U eat 20% of the cost due to FT's shipping to your country..

Hey ! Thanks for being a smart .... Everyone loves a smart ...!

I called Canada post and said the initiator has to launch an investigation. the item has passed customs. its at a local postal facility. there are no legal issues here.

But hey thanks for chiming in. Everyone loves a smart ...!

Defective Squape

Yet another defective Fast Tech product... Surprise, surprise...

1.6 Ohm resistance between Center Pin and Positive Terminal which has to be near 0.0 Ohm

See for your self:

​

Also:
Fasttech Kayfun 3.1 and Taifun GT are full of surprises.
Finally, I had my two defective Kayfun’s 3.1 replaced by FT. The original order was placed on Dec. 20/2013. Today is March 5/2014 and I received my replacements today. The reason I had them replaced because they were shorting right in the 510 connection of it. See Picture.

​

I thought the replacements would be better? Wrong. They are worse. Both have the same shorting problem, but this time I figured out why: The center screw that serves as a positive connector fits in the insulator very loosely, thus allows for access play causing the head of the screw touch the side wall and create “Short Circuit”. I pulled a little tiny plastic tubing over the screw and that fixed the problem.
Not to mention that both units were very dirty. I even found a few metal shavings inside left from when they were machined. In one of them, the deck’s positive terminal was loosely swinging back and forth touching the negative terminal. Trying to tighten the center pin didn’t help because the metal wall of the deck on one of them was thinner than the other. And the tube of the plastic insulator protruded too far inside the deck not allowing to tighten the positive terminal firmly. I had to file that tube down to make it work. I don’t know if you can see that on my picture, but the top tube of the chimney is expended for some reason (again, only on one of the units) and that tube does not fit in the O-ring of the top cap, and of course, the O-ring was missing, because there is no way you could put it together without damaging the O-ring. I had to fix that problem too by sanding the chimney and finding an O-ring. I’m not going to have these Kayfuns replaced by FT because there is no use in it.

​

I don’t know who the manufacturer of this product is. I know it NOT EHPRO because I have one from them and it is way better made with no logo though, but with the bottom Fill Screw. I know it is NOT HCIGAR because I have one of those too and they are much better quality clones 1:1. I hope it is NOT ToBeCo, because I own other products of ToBeCo and no complaints.
Does anyone know who makes Fast Tech KayFun 3.1? The worst Kayfun I have ever seen.
I also had a Fast Tech Taifun GT replaced because the one I originally received had no threads under one of the Terminal screws. That’s right: Not Stripped threads – NO threads. Just a hole in which the screw was inserted all the way and would fall out if you flip it upside down. I posted Product Review on it but Fast Tech didn’t publish it. My replacement didn’t have that problem, but it had another: The collapsible chimney would not collapse. It is so snug that I’m afraid to brake it if I fours it too much. And by too much – I mean: put it on the floor and step on it or squeeze it in a vise. Everything else I already tried – no use. I built it anyway with SS Mash wick and 0.01X0.08 Flat Kanthal ribbon to 0.7 Ohms, put it on Chi You and I love it! Hard to work without being able to collapse the chimney though… But for $19.95 and Free Shipping – I’m going to keep it.
