Anyone here used fasttech.

How are the fish tanks coming along Terry ?

what are you thinking of stocking ?

I'm doing a 90% water change this weekend to get rid of the nitrate

I've been seeing a bit of bba and if that gets hold it's murder to shift

Thay are doing fine thanks vinnie, not lost any at all with the new set up. As for restocking, i will leave it till after chrimbo now mate. I have always had a community tank, so it depends what they have got in when i go ! Whatts bba vin ?

See ...you've had me sat here watching that! Duh!

Eleaf Lemos go up on fasttech a few days after I order one from elsewhere! Typical, although the price isn't much different tbh. Might get a black one in the future if it's as good as people say!

Well spotted buddy, I thought seeing as it`s bob and ians birthday today i would treat myself to one Oh and i also got the 70 watt hana, and a coiling jig as i am unsure of the sizes of my drill bits, so i have just been going off what i think is either 2 or 3 mm

Happy birthday Ian and bob...All the very best.

I have a £2-3 mini screwdriver set from ebay where the diameter of the different screwdrivers is printed on the box. They aren't great but they are good enough for wrapping coils and tightening down screws on atomisers.

Whatts bba vin ?

It's black beard algae mate, looks like whiskers that appear on the edges of

plants and decorations, there's no known cure except scrubbing if it's scrubbable

or boiling if it's boilable, general opinion is it's caused by excessive light, an imbalance

of CO2 and the tiny amounts of ammonia in the tank till the filter clears it, it can feed

off the nitrate left after the filtering process, the aquarists curse

I had a really strange day with one of my kayfuns today ! A mate of mine came round today to fit a new fire ( full lot ) and as usual i started my day with a brew, and a coffee and cream vape. So after an hour or so, picked up my nemmy with the said kayfun on top. ( blackberry )

I took a couple of draws, and noticed a lot of gurgling, so blew it through to clear it. went for another vape and my hand was covered in juice Went to the kitchen opened the kayfun up and checked all was good on the inside and it was.

So i wiped everything down and refilled it, on to the mod took a pull, and exactly the same thing happened...juice all over my hand. It`s coming out of airhole and the afc. I have got absolutely no idea what`s happened there !!!

So i took it apart again made sure all was tightened down etc, filled it again Then just set it down near the sink. made a brew, and went back to the living room, to see how my mate was getting on. I had 10 minutes with him then went back to the kayfun, Empty So i reckon that will be going in the bin tomorrow !

Sounds like an o-ring missing/broken somewhere so it's losing pressure.

Same here Bob. Managed to get off work early and it arrived 15 minutes after I got home. It's so small! I've not had a box mod before and it surprised me with it's size.

I was looking at those hex screws on the side and was thinking "I thought they changed the design so it was a magnet door only" when I accidentally slid the door off haha. Seems to hold it fairly well.

Also got some Ni200 wire with it. Grey haze stock "32gauge=0.2mm" and "28gauge=0.3mm" so I'm guessing it's 0.3mm. Hard to tell by eye but it doesn't look thin enough for 0.2mm.

Just whacked my veritas rda on it and vaping some jungle juice at 30W. mmmmm tasty. Might test it out with the Ni200 later or tomorrow.

I thought and did exactly the same, that's when I realised it had a battery already installed, I've had to move my Vmodz away from where I wanted to put the VS because the magnets were attracting each other, must admit it's the smallest 18650 box mod I have, not much bigger than the iStick, all my other 18650 ones are much bigger than this one.

Think I might have to wait until Sunday before I can try out the Ni-200 though, 0.3mm is the one I didn't have, so that's good.

I got some 0.3mm and 0.45mm from vape atomiser mesh along with some ribbon wire and Japanese cotton.

Not me I'm afraid Trish, I never got past la plume de ma tante

Ah! quel dommage ...OK, pas de problème! Merci

If you have the tracking number can't you use track17.net - that'll normally track anything, just click on the big blue panel then input the number and select Track

Tried every which way and nothing. Nathan answered an email quickly though and said he'll try La Poste direct to see if he can get any info on it. Said not to worry, and the site will be back up in the morning anyway.
I thought seeing I got US post this morning, the EU one should have perhaps been here by now. Hopefully soon!

What's the betting that the scenes shown on tv of the sales this morning are very shortly alluded to as proof that the economy is growing.

I saw a bit of the disgraceful behaviour of so called 'shoppers' on the news!
Apparently our dog section had to attend a Tesco where they were queuing for midnight to arrive before laying siege to anything worth having ...and they started arguing and fighting in the queue! How pathetic!
£6000 per second!!!

I wanted one thing: a new oven ,...knew exactly what I wanted (Black Bosch Classixx so though I'd see if there were any with discount ..did a search and couldn't get on any website by 11am.
Finally found one at the best price too: Appliances Online ...checked the dimensions, and went to put it in the basket - 'out of stock'. Needless to say all the shops they supply suddenly showed o/s too (Boots, etc.). eventually went back after lunch and they were back in stock! But - son said to wait until he could get here around 5.30 to check the space because there as 1cm difference. He decided he could make it fit, so I added it to the basket ..got all the way through payment and it offered me an alternative!!!
I finally, and for the first time today, got onto the Tesco site, and they had them available from their supplier, and at the good price too! Hopefully, all is well and it'll be here within the week Toes crossed!

Got my order from Heathers Heavenly 5ml bottles this morning ...very promising if the little taster drops I tried are anything to go by! Their Heavenly tobacco seems to be a very rich RY! Looking forward to trying some of these ..all of them in fact. I got Mocha Java Smooth, Tuscan cocoa, Waffles with syrup, cream & strawberry, Nut Case: almond, Vanilla Dream, & 3 NET's of various flavours including a chocolate bias, tea/coffee & plum/raisin.

Good labelling as requested

Sounds like an o-ring missing/broken somewhere so it's losing pressure.

I think i found the problem today bob, when i do a top fill and replace the cap, the little o ring which sits in the top cap just won`t stay in place when i tighten down ! I tried and tried, and every time when i opened the top cap to take a look, the said o ring was askew, around the top of the chimney.

I`ve gotta say, this has never happened to me before !

Well i know bob is, as he got himself a nice prezzie As for ian, well thats anyones guess

Who on here has tried SG`s CLS ? The reason i ask is that i missed the bloody sale today for some GVC By the time i remembered to order some, everything was out of stock I would even have got some zero nic if they had any left, as i love the taste so much ! so i am wondering what other custards come close to it ? It doesn`t necessarily have to be from steamgunk either

 

[Bobw1951]

I got some 0.3mm and 0.45mm from vape atomiser mesh along with some ribbon wire and Japanese cotton.

When I ordered mine they didn't have the 0.3 so went with the 0.2, 0.45 and Cotton Pads

I had the bottle of Palm that I put in the fridge, whilst having dinner (Friday food), and then had a nice hot soak in't baff. My lad actually came round for the first time in nearly a year, and actually gave me some money (not much seeing as he doesn't work) and that's a first in about 20 years, wondering what he's after next month...

sounds like the o-ring needs replacing.

Well i know bob is, as he got himself a nice prezzie As for ian, well thats anyones guess

Apart from taking it out of the box giving it a quick check over and placing it on the shelf, I haven't touched it, and probably won't until I coil something up with the Ni-200

Doth thou mean "Captain's Custard" CLS is Nicotickets one, I bought a bottle from Chefs a while back but haven't really tried it yet, the original SG one I had, I did like.
I just did a finger lick of ABC, CLS, Captain's and GVC and there is not a lot of difference in them with GVC being a slightly stronger taste.

I have some SG (Captain custard)...not bad! Chefs have 20% off ABC and Apple Pie today too.
There's T Juice Colonel Custard ...never tried it though.
Or, have you tried the Nicoticket CLS? Spiritus have 12 & 18mg in stock. That's a good one.

The istick i had stuck in China is apparently at GBLALA,which after doing a search is the International sorting office at Heathrow.
How long does it take to come out of there?
When i tried to track on the RM website,it says this item can only be tracked after it has been registered as delivered,WHAT'S THE POINT OF THAT

 

[Brynglas]

OH!Sorry for my ignorance.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Bob and Ian.

Depending on how busy they are at Langley (the RM/HMRC centre near LHR) it could take anything from 1 to 5 days to get to your delivery office.

Full Tracking is only available now on the SameDay/Next Day/Special Deliveries, if you have a look at the RM site all the others just state "Signed For" now so that's why you don't always get any tracking and other times you will get it up to the time it arrives over here.

 

[Bobw1951]

Trish, did you manage to get any tracking on your French item, if you can let me have the number I can check for you
