Anyone here used fasttech.

I may try that RY4 next time! ....just for research purposes you understand

I got a bottle of the Frozen Lime Drop flavouring with my CV order ..smells lovely and a tiny taste of it is good too - Says up to 20% so that'll be simple to put in a bottle of .6mg VG!

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________


I was right about the PBC SR at Nicoticket: no max VG! Last one was the same and the next one (cheesecake) will be the same too with only one of the 3 flavours with it being in max VG - the cherry one. I'd have liked to try the raspberry or even the strawberry one, but won't be able to! Drat!

Because their other things like GCD and CB etc. are so nice, I'd have liked to try the PBC ...but, I can always get some Pink Spot Nutty Buddy Cookie ...if it's not as good, I won't know the difference

So - did I say I'll try the SG RY4 next time I order ...well, next time is now! I just checked the name of the Nutty cookie on CV's site, and before leaving, did as I always do and check the chefs page in case anything changed ...now got 27! 'Barbed Star' Rhubarb, Aniseed and Citrus ....OK, I'll give it a try - been pleasantly surprised before by theirs! So, RY4 from SG, Pink Spot Nutty cookie flavouring, and a bottle of the Barbed Star!

Yes i fully understand trish I am pretty sure you will like the ry4, it is a nice smooth vape, with what seems to have a tad more caramel to it. I wonder what happened to the caribbean trifle they were supposed to be making at chefs ?? Maybe they can`t get it right.

Perhaps not!
I'll soon know with the SG RY4! Looking forward to seeing what this new Barbed Star is like too!

I gave up on my carefully cleaned BVC coil this afternoon and thankfully put in a new coil! Don't think I'll bother washing those again.

Sometimes it is just the best way trish. Though these thing CAN be rebuilt and made like new again, at the end of the day they are disposable.

They look complicated to me ...very fiddly! Not something I'd think about never mind actually attempt!

Indeed it is fiddly trish, but if i can do it with my sausage fingers anyone can.

I don't know if anyone remembers the hybrid dripper that FT was advertising (think it was an M8) a dripper with a tank on top and you pressed the drip tip to allow the juice to go from the tank to the coils/wick and everyone said NO because it was plated brass, well EHPRO has just brought one out made of SS called the Pontus and AngelFireMods are selling it. I'm going to send off for one to see how it goes.

I haven't heard of anyone rebuilding the BVCs yet because of the way they are made

Cheers Adam. To be honest, I want to match it up with either the Fogger V4 or the new Reo when it arrives. At the moment I've got 3 tips stacked up on the Fogger just to cool the vape down a bit - went for a dual twisted kanthal build on it. Great flavour, throat hit and flavour at 0.6 ohms, but it's a bit on the warm side for me, even with the airholes drilled out. So, I'm hoping the POM bit might help cool the vape a little, if not it will go on the Reo Not too worried about the bore, I've got tips like that, that are wide bore at the top but smaller at the 510.

Tried it and it maybe gives a slightly cooler vape than a similarly sized all metal drip tip, but nothing drastic. Still think it looks good though.

Well i dunno about that trisha, but thanks anyway.

I just ordered 20 more BVC coils from FastTech today ..at their prices and free delivery, it's a no brainer!
I already have 10 on the way, so I'm hoping they're OK!

_____________________________________________________________________________________________


I took a chance on ordering a Spinner ll from an Ebay seller yesterday - had good feedback and stated 100% genuine ....and it is! The scratch code on the box comes back as genuine on the Vision site.
Myepack didn't have any of the best colours left, so I got a red one from Ebay: smashingdealsdirect - good feedback & service too as it arrived today as the listing suggested it would! £19.99, free delivery and a decent choice of colours too.

That order I placed with CV last night is already despatched! They're really moving fast these days! Wonder if they took on some help since they moved.

Also, The NT PBC that a few of us pulled sad faces at about there being no Max VG - Clark is letting us have some from the first batch he did: seems there's a little left.
I'd missed him saying that but someone kindly PM'd me! So, I just asked him how to go about ordering it and hopefully I'll get some.

And, I made a 10ml bottle of Frozen Lime Drop from the Pink Spot concentrate I got from CV. Easy too - put the .6mg VG base in the bottle, filled two 1ml syringes with the flavour, shook it up and put the lid on! I did use the maximum recommended amount of flavouring concentrate - it doesn't smell too strong either.
Two things I'm not sure about: should I have used more flavour seeing it's a 100% VG base? ...and do I need to steep it?

Should keep you happy for a while that lot trish, potentially you got about 6 months worth of coils there.

It`s great when you spot a bargain trish, and that is a good price for an authentic spinner. I think chefs re-located to bigger premises, so they probably have taken more staff on. good luck to them.

Well who has been a busy girl today What i would do trish is just try dripping a bit in your 306 and see what it tastes like. Ideally you should steep it for a week or more to let everything meld, so yeah give it a try, then put it away and when you go back to it, then you can decide if it need any more flavouring added.

Thats what i would do anyway.

Possible, might look at WTA, is 100% VG. Burnie

Well, all this time later and finally I now have a bottle of WTA from Aroma!
First bottle got delivered somewhere - and looking at the tracking details, I think it never left the US!

They kindly send a replacement, and having the full bottle value on the label, I got stung for £11.54 duty/post office fees - so it's been a pricey bottle of stuff!
I'm hoping it works!

I've put it in an Evod tank 3/4 menthol to 1/4 WTA ...I'll see how it is using it now and then throughout the day!

They've been lasting a maximum of 5 days with the Mint Choc Vapetto, so 'time' will tell!

Myepack are the same price but there's postage on top of that. They did have a lot of colours but only green, pink and bronze at the moment. The Ebay seller has a number of colours I'd have chosen. He seems to have quite a few sensibly priced items too.

OK - I'll wait! it's in a dark cupboard ..next to the Long Shift ..which I'll be trying next week! It still has a toasted caramel smell, but there's a nuttiness to it now which must be the tobacco type flavour coming through.

Well i hope it works out for you trish, i keep saying i will have a go at diy but i am waiting to see how things go with regulations etc. If it looks like we are going to get HIT, that is when i will make my move.

Has your long shift started to go darker in colour yet ???

I'm not going to do it in any serious way (unless I have to) just nice to get something I can't easily get otherwise, or add something that's missing from ready made ones

I suppose it has a bit ..it was fairly dark to start with.
It'll be interesting to try that Barbed Star! Not sure about the aniseed as I've never had it before, apart from sweets a few dozen years ago, but with rhubarb and citrus, it may not be too prominent. You don't like aniseed do you?

Although he did it the same way as the original, it looks as though he failed in that it wasn't as good

Useless video - you couldn't really tell what he was doing or saying or what he used as a wicking material

I am the same as you trish, i used to love them little aniseed ball sweets when i was a kid, but i am not sure i would like to vape that flavour.

That order I had with FT that was returned to China - FT reckon it was rejected by HMRC and has cost me $11.44 shipping because of it - don't know why, 'twas only the following:
$29.66 Element Style Mechanical Mod (Full Set) - 18650/18500/18350 / stainless steel / black plated at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
$63.46 KSD 7W-30W Varaible Wattage Mod - 1*18650 / stainless steel + chromed brass at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

Don't think I'll be ordering much from them in future
