I was curious; Are their products are consistent with their advertising? I've purchased re-branded China batteries from an american vendor and found that two 650mAh's were only 550mAh, and all four of them are suffering from rapid voltage drop after only three weeks of use. If 40% of their products hold up it's a screaming deal, so please chime in.

Great company, great customer service, cheap prices, everything I have got so far has worked fine. Liqua juice at $5.6 for 30ml is good. None of my clearo's has been faulty so far (fingers crossed)

Most of the time you are buying the same gear as from the bricks and mortar in your own country (bar a few of the brands). First reports on the $3.6 Evods have been good, identical to the branded ones.

Personally if I can get the same item for $3 from FT as I can buy from my own country for $10 then I don't see why I should pay for a middleman to store the goods and reship out to me. Hell, half the time the vendors in my country charge me to ship it 100miles whilst fastTech ship it 10000miles to me for free.

I have two orders in with them that were purchased on June 12. One has shipped (but hasn't left Hong Kong yet) and the other a vamo v3 has been paid for and not been shipped since the 12th... Not impressed so far with shipping. I'm one of those people who likes to know that their stuff is on the move and arriving promptly. I doubt I will get the vamo by the end of the month and the other stuff I'm guessing later this week or Monday.

Just make sure that when you charge the batteries for the first time, you leave them on the charger for six or so hours after the light on the charger goes green. I'm not 100% sure why this is suggested, but everywhere I've read, this is the suggestion, so I do it. It's not like it will hurt.

I'm waiting on an order from fasttech now. Great site, good prices, shipping takes a while, but it's free and goes more places in the word than me, so...

One of my two orders is coming today. So 9 days to me here in Oregon. Not all that bad from Hong Kong and free shipping. The Vamo v3 still hasn't shipped. It's batteries will be nicely charged up when it arrives....eventually....I have a feeling it will be shipped out probably today sometime and will get it at the end of the month. Not a huge deal since it is not my only vape device I also have some vapemail coming today from HHV 4x 30ml so maybe that's why I'm in a better mood today.

I've tried bottom coil, wound a few wicks and all. The cool vapor is nice at times but the bottom coil tank stays in the vape box for those Days dinkin' O'douls watchin' NASCAR with the old guys. Yes that's right me and the boys are bearded motorcycle riding race fans that vape and drink near beer. I've found a 650mAh bat and 2.4ml of juice is just right to go around a circle a couple/few hundred times. I'm pleased with all these good reviews on fastech, I will certainly be ordering as soon as the internet is on in my new "S....y" apartment.

http://.........blogspot.com/ indicates Fasttech has quite a following and let me tell you that dude knows the deals. I am awaiting an order from them. I ordered like a bunch of stuff like batteries and vivi knockoff plus some adapter. Shipping is free so WYSIWYG in terms of price, no shipping fee to fiddle with. I hate it when you see a decent price on something and then you have to go through registration to get inflated prices on shipping. We'll see. I even got a 400 mah battery to try out for palming it when there are people around who I do not wish to give the long story about what vaping is to.
I hope their stuff is decent. The ego 650s are like 5.50 shipped! God you can get like three and charge them all up and have backups for like two days including your own original Joyetech originals. *note to self: look for multibattery ego charger*

Since my experience is exactly the opposite of everyone else, I'll post just for the variety of it :unsure:

NO trouble with delivery, and of course I like the prices, and will probably order again.

Not fully happy with product quality though:
Ego batteries: One seems fine, one was faulty right from the start (it literally just cuts off mid-vape, and you have to 5-click it).
EVOD: I found it worked fine, but the threading wasn't smooth - then it developed an internal leak somewhere. Not worth the saved $1, I'm getting real Kangers next time
Juice: I actually LIKE the Dekang juice I got, and it's SO inexpensive, I'll definitely get more. It can steep all the way here from China.

I have had 12 orders so far. In the past two to three weeks they have gotten slow getting orders out as in not leaving their facility until 5 to 6 days later. I figure that since everyone here has jumped on the FT band wagon ( and don't blame you) they have been inundated with orders and have a lot of back ordering going on. I still order from them though.

I had one of those random emails from them the other day asking how my last order was...told them all was good, enjoyed the SVD and that one of 8 batteries were DOA. I didn't ask them to replace it, Its only a 5 dollar battery. Well, I got a response the next day asking for the sku number of the battery and they asked how would I like them to include it in my next order. I just emailed back and said "sure, thanks"

What Im saying I guess is that I receive better treatment from them than I do with some USA vendors (I had a real problem with a MVP with an American vendor and they treated me like a criminal. I complained about an EVOD order to one of THE largest US vendors and I was banned from their site ( was actually my 30 YO daughter) Its fasttech all the way for me. Sorry US vendors.. price and service sell.
