I noticed on the SS version, some people seem to be having battery issues that they aren't having with the other versions. Kinda puts me off of that one. They are posting about it there on Discussions.

I've been using an SS Pico from fasttech for about a month, no issues. I just got another SS in the mail from fasttech today, and will start using that one to test it out.

All pics on FT looks so bland- devoid of vibrant colors- so it baffles me how anyone can tell the difference between SS & brushed. *high five to ya* :banana:.... They all look the same to me. :(
Don't look at the pics......right above where you go to click on add to cart look at that description, it is a drop down box and lists all the different ones on their site.
:)

I said I was done last week but realized that I didn't have very many Subtank Mini o-ring sets. Off to fasttech for 5 x Authentic Kanger 5 packs (about $7 for 25 full sets - )$1.44 Authentic KangerTech Colorful Silicon Seal Ring Set for SUBTANK Mini (SUBTANK Mini, 5-Set) at m.FastTech.com).

I also added my first mechanical ($8 Nemesis clone) and a couple of really cool premade coil sets (48 great coils for under $8 - $7.85 Kanthal A1 Pre-coiled Wire for RBA Atomizer (8 Specs) (8 Specs, 6-Pack/Spec) at m.FastTech.com) that I have heard rave reviews for.

I am now done! :facepalm:

I got some of those O-ring sets, too! Super deal!

Also, I asked for opinions on here about ordering some premade Kanthal A-1 coils from FT, and was advised against doing it. So, have you ordered coils from them before, and had no problem with them? They said something like, "Oh, you can't really be sure you're getting Kanthal A-1, and/or the right ga. wire and ohms you order." I wonder why? I wanted to get some for my IGO-Ls and STMs.

I've ordered a bunch from FT, and they are all perfectly fine! So far, they all test out as advertised. They do list the gauge, and coil diameter. I don't know how to tell if they are Kanthal A-1 or not, but they vape the same as far as I can tell. It's not like Kanthal is expensive so not sure why they wouldn't be what they say. Sure, I can make my own coils. But when they are this cheap to buy pre-made, I just skip a step.

I got 100 pre made coils and they say Kanthal A1 on them plus gauge ohm and diameter. I think I got mine from 3F but not sure lost track! LOL

    Finally got my flavor in at Highdesertvapes, so that finished off my flavor needs for now. Only thing I have yet is to use my Provape rewards, not sure what I will get, love the blue P3's, we shall see :)
    I am in the same boat with Provape rewards. Nothing I really want but don't want to lose the reward points.

    Which blue to you like? I love the tiffany but don't want to spend that much for another P3.

    @Iron Molly - Thanks for the response about FT premade coils you've gotten. See, if yours tested out fine...I don't know why people who responded to my question during the July 4th sales time period...answered so negatively about it.

    I did end up getting (2) boxes of 100 from a website I've bought things from before, but never premade coils. They're here in the US. Got them for $17.99/box less I think...a 10% discount. So still not bad for that many. They're going in my "stash", as I don't use anything yet that doesn't take ready-made coils. Have bought RDAs & RBAs, but not used them yet.

    I think I'm pretty close to done until my Pro Vape points are available. I think I'm going to get another Radius. I think a ghost would work well with this little dude Parfait by Gost Vapor Ejuices He was too cool not to get as part of the last hurrah.

    I ordered some more of my favorite pre-made juices while I wait for the FT orders to arrive next week. I did not order the rubber bits for those tanks, and was not sure if I should just hope to get them in the future. I don't trust the rubber not to rot in the dry air.

    It took me a min to realize the "little dude" was a bottle of juice. Kept looking at it trying to figure out how you were going to vape out of that atty. :lol: :lol: :lol:

    Maybe someone will revive those seen on tv kits from my childhood that you could use to make "useful works of art" from old wine bottles and glass jars. :w00t:

    It would be cool to drill a hole in the bottom to fit a coil and put a drip tip under the top cap. Talk about a stealth vape...:D

    I Can't Vouch for the Kanthal A1 Coils. Because I don't use Kanthal(s). But I have Bought Hundreds (Literally) and Hundreds of the MKWS NiChrome 80 Pre-Coiled Coils.

    They Work Great. Extremely Consistent Wrap and Ohm-Wise. Taste just like all my other NiChrome 80 Wire I have gotten from Misc Retailers.

    Like I said, not sure about the Kanthal Coils. But I am Very Happy with the MKWS NiChrome 80 Coils.

    I think that bnrkwest has done such a good job with the couple of stocking threads she has got going that we should all reward her.

    If you have any money left after stocking up - you should forward it to her and let her spend it... :):eek::rolleyes:

    Of course the reverse (only to be fair) should also be true - if you run out of money before you finish stocking up - then you should send her your wish list and let her fill it... :D:rolleyes::w00t:

    She loves shopping...
