Starting a thread for people to providereviews of fast tech products as well as questions about other fast tech itemsyou are thinking of purchasing.
Please keep shipping, return, purchase experiences, and other Fast Tech chat, out of this thread. reviews and questions only about products.

I will start. Love 90% of what I have ordered from Fast Tech. Just be warnedthe coils they advertise do not always fit vivi Nova's even though they saythey will. I ordered 8 different sizes of heads and zero fit the vivi Nova's Ipurchased from Fast Tech.

Regarding the vivi Nova's. Be careful when ordering. None of them are the samesize, fitment, etc. They are all different so you cannot swap parts, etc. Thisbecame problematic for me when I took them all apart at once and soaked them.When I put the parts back together, I realized the parts were notinterchangeable. Took me forever to get them to all match up. I just ended uptossing them. I never realized one vivi Nova item listed on Fast Tech wasdifferent from another. If you purchase any vivi Nova's be sure to order themall from the same item number so they match up. I made the mistake of orderingdifferent item numbers and then realized they don't match.

None of the liquids have taste to me except the Liqua's. Don't waste your timeon the others. The Liqua's are superb and some of the best tasting juice I havetried anywhere. Menthol and mint is incredible!!!!!!

Got two Vamo's from them. The stainless was DOA. The chrome has been excellent!Love the look, ability to use different battery sizes and the vape isincredible.

Their 1300mh ego batteries are incredible. Last all day with chain vaping. Thetiny 450mh and 650mh also work extremely well and last a very long time!

Purchased the grey 18650 batteries...love them! Also purchased the Ultrafire18350 batteries. Love them!

Very unhappy with their iClear 30's. I got juice in my mouth when vaping. Triedfixing it in a variety of ways. Never worked!

I have been wondering if any of the Fast Tech items are identical to the mini Protank's?

All of my Protank purchases came from Ebay as I wanted authentic. Any thoughts on the Fast Tech Protanks? They are super inexpensive!

They are cheap and they are the real deal.

If I get a protank from FT, I will hold out for the protank 2. I've gotten what I'm pretty sure are knockoff evods (from a vendor in the US), but I like what I see when it comes to the new protank, eliminated the negatives for me that the original one had.

Regarding the OP's thread topic:

**Shipment #1**
SS VAMO v2: Works great, nice finish, feels sturdy, no problems at all. I'd recommend it to friends, family and co-workers (henceforth: RFFCW).

NCR18650PD 2900 mah Panasonic batteries (1 pair): About a day and a half of vaping max on my VAMO, about 20-30 puffs an hour, give or take 10. RFFCW

Nitecore I2 charger, US plug: Does what it's supposed to, haven't had any problems yet. RFFCW

**Shipment #2**
Phoenix v4 mini RDA: Feels solid, looks quality. heavier than it looks. Didn't come with an allen wrench, so had to buy my own (takes a .9mm allen wrench). Aside from having to buy my own wrench, RFFCW. Threw a 2.5ohm micro coil on it, and over drilled from 1mm to 1.35mm for the airhole, working great for me! RFFCW (with slight modification to airhole)

T4 clearomizers (w/ delrin tips), 2 each: Only using one atm, and it looks like the plastic on the tank has slightly shifted out of the lower metal ring that the base screws into. Looks just slightly crooked when I screw it on to a device. Stock coil was not to my liking, threw a rebuilt evod head in it, happy with it now, aside from the crooked plastic tank section (which could have happened during shipping). The other clearo doesn't appear to have any defects at all. RFFCW

Honest 503 pen torch/lighter: Bought it to oxidize the mesh/cable I have. Filled with a Ronson Multi-fill butane fuel tank I got at the on base gas station, easy. Fires on first click, plenty enough heat to oxidize my mesh/cable. Nice little built in stand to stand it up. RFFCW.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

So far, 2 shipments, and aside from the one T4 being slightly off (which doesn't affect the performance, just aesthetics), I'm pretty happy, and I will be ordering from them again. Just keep in mind that it can take a while for your orders to ship.

Overall: RFFCW

very happy with FT till now. i never ordered any type of CE clearos. i hate all of them. Orginals, clones, expensive, cheap they all the same to me. as for other things, super happy with FT. im loving their dripping attys and some of their mechanicals and batteries. bit of advice STAY AWAY FROM THEIR CARTOMIZERS. shipping times are a bit long but i guess most of us have tons of devices lying around so no problem for me.

Thunder....which Fast Tech product (item number) is the mini Protank? Thanks!

Sorry, I had to re read your post... I didnt see you were refering to the MINI. I myself have been waiting for them to start caarrying them also.

I got my Original Protanks there,,,,and recently got my Protank 2's from juice mafia. I have been trying to find the mini's, but they keep being sold out. I then contacted Kanger about ordering but they havent responded ( a week ago). By the way, if they would respond, they are under 7.00 if you buy either 10 or 11 of them.

The T4 is a 2.5ml bottom coil clearo with changeable drip tips. I have 3 of them, and I love them. I've never been a fan of the ce's either. I rebuilt the little evod atty with a 1.8 ohm coil and a cotton wick (have found this is my fav setup).

As for the tank leaning mine do that from time to time, usually I just push it back down snug.

Fastech liquids have been great. Far as I can tell the Dekang is Dekang and the Hangsen is Hangsen. Haven't tried Liqua yet. At the prices they charge, I get a whole bunch of 10ml and then order big bottles of the ones I really like. Keeps it interesting and something new in the mailbox all the time.

SS Vamo, batteries and charger great. SVD same -- far as I can tell it's genuine but about half of what it costs from local vendors.

They once stocked the zmax telescope but stopped selling that before I got one. Wish I ordered quicker lol.

RBAs have been great -- just look closely at the pics because different clones are always different levels of quality.

I've avoided their mechs to date. Just heard too many bad reviews about the quality of the machining.

Tools have been great -- again look closely at the pictures. Some of the stuff is the same as you'd get at a local big box store and some, well, isn't lol.

Phone accessories, same deal. Read the reviews and pick the items that get high ratings. I got a lightning charge cord for my iPhone for about 4 bucks. Hard to beat.

Vamo V2 kit - great. Extra 18350s and 18650s - great. Evod/Kanger coils - havent used em yet. Mini Vivs - same.

Waiting on SVD, Liqua Juices and several non e-cig stuff - they got some kool gag gifts.....shock ur bud lighters etc - lol

All the products they sell may not be genuine - but if they work - it doesnt bother me.....lets not forget a lot of stuff sold locally are clones too - at triple the price.....shipping - max 7 days.....I can wait that long - some ppl complain abt that - really?????

Fasttech has a one more customer...............

Vogue 4*18650 2-Port USB Mobile Emergency Power Pack w/SOC Indicator
SKU 1280901
Nice power supply, suggested via Vapor Joe's blog (along with a usb ego connection) as a vapable box type mod. Doesn't work well as a mod as it has an 8 second cut off...unless the power supply is also being charged. Works great otherwise with 4 each 2600mAh batteries for a ego style charger and phone charger!!

Authentic Samsung ICR18650-26F 18650 3.7V 2600mAh Rechargeable Lithium Batteries (2-Pack)
SKU 1170800
The pink Joyetech batteries eVics 1st came with. Using in my power supplies and in several of our APV's! Great!

TrustFire 14500 3.7V 900mAh Rechargeable Lithium Batteries
SKU 1182402
probably not 900mAh, but work great in our eCabs!

X6 4-in-1 Rechargeable 1300mAh Variable Voltage Electronic Cigarettes Set
SKU 1343900 and 1343808
Wife and I love these! The only ego type batteries we use! Came with X8 tanks that are great! Was missing 1 screw for each tank initially.. FT shipped out the 2nd set no problems!

VIVI NOVA Electronic Cigarette Atomizer with Coil Head for Ego-t/w/c/d/k/510/510-t/808d/808/v9 (3.5mL)
SKU 1319602 and 1314100
Not bad, not good.. not a Vivi Nova fan.. They work.. 1 was leaky, teflon tape fixed it.. I'll vape from one now and then..

SM20 Electronic Cigarette Round Mouth Detachable Dripping Atomizer for Empire KeCig K100
SKU 1353406
Great Dripper! Looks good on my K100!

Empire KeCig K100 Mechanical Rechargeable Electronic Cigarettes
SKU 1354402
I can not complain at all about this K100!!

E-liquid Refiller Bottle for Electronic Cigarette (50ml)
SKU 1150700
Probably the cheapest juice bottle around.. 50ml +, Needle tipped with out a needle cap. They work, but won't suggest them to anyone..

510/EGO/EGO-T/EGO-C/CE4/CE5 E-cigarette/ Atomizer Convertor Adapter
SKU 1284600
Great.. have lasted for me.. when I can find them on my desk! LOL

EVOD Electronic Cigarettes Round Mouth Atomizer (1.5mL)
SKU 1369403, 1362600 and 1365600
I have had no problems with these evods, other than the paint wearing off the colored ones. Only ordering Stainless Steel ones now!

Kamry eCab V2 900mAh Electronic Cigarette Interchangeable Battery
SKU 1372100
Wife and I love these as they are great for when out and about. the 14500 battery size makes it convenient where our Vamo's would be too noticeable. Mine did break, but the replacement is on it's way for free.. They gave me store credit for my shipping it to Fl.

TrustFire 14500 3.7V 900mAh Protected Rechargeable Li-ion Batteries
SKU 1084100
Better than the grey 14500's ordered earlier. Probably still not 900mAh though!

Electronic Cigarette Fiberglass Wick (98cm)
SKU 1363700
Silica wick, 2 - 2.5mm. clean no taste- use to rewick my evods and MT3S's without a flavor wick, Ordered twice!!

EVOD Electronic Cigarettes Atomizer Heating Core (5-Pack)
SKU 1387600
Mine came in with the kanger ohm markings. No complaints.. they all tested out and since we are using evods and MT3S mostly now, they have covered our needs. I have recoiled/rewicked about a dozen just to prove I can and to reduce the ohms of the 2.5's I ordered as we like 1.8ish better!

Authentic X8 2.5ml Electronic Cigarette Atomizer
SKU 1336002
More X8 tanks!! Love 'em

Authentic X8 Electronic Cigarette Atomizer Heating Core
SKU 1332306
Not prefect on replacement carto's for the X8, but they work.

I won't add the flashlights and memory cards I ordered..(and they are good!!!) this time... LOL

So this makes me wonder - has anyone purchased something from a local vendor that happened to not work? I have - several CE2s, 3s and 4s. The last purchase was a Panasonic 18650 - stopped working after 2 weeks - yes I got a free replacement. Is it possible that some stuff from Fasttech may not work - YES. Will they take it back- I believe they will....has anyone looked at reviews for TVs, Washers/Dryers etc before making a purchase - I have - and I have yet to find a product without a review that it did not work etc etc = it is a LEMON - dont buy this..............life goes on.....

This, you can have a thread on here where 99 people say eg "I like the XYZ battery, it's great" and then 1 person who says "the XYZ battery doesn't work, you are an idiot if you buy this"
