How do people like their Empire K100's anyway? They're not variable voltage right? They work well with tanks? Any pics to share of setups with tanks on them?

I'd like to grab a mech mod like that in the coming month and the fasttech prices are great, will see how my experience with them winds up, my first order from them should be in latest by Wednesday. If everything goes well might grab a mod, but definitely going to order a few people that I'm trying to get into vaping some starter kits.

Also, anyone know what connection these are? Looks like an 808, but I'm not sure:

Do you have a friend with a phone with a camera in it? I've had the same thing happen when I've ordered from China. Not e-stuff but other hobby supplies. I got what I ordered but it wasn't as described. What I found is they get the descriptions from the manufacturers and they don't verify it's correct. And they don't actually have the stock in hand. Might not be the same case here but every time I get something from anyone now and it's not right, I take a picture including the box/envelope it comes in just so the seller knows it's not right.

I just recv'd email from fasttech they want photos of what I rcvd. Guess they can't accept my word that what I ordered was not in my pkg. I think I have placed my last order with them. The prices are great if you get what you ordered. Since I don't have camera capability I can not provide what they want.

My mailman really sucks. This is the 3rd time in the last 3 or 4 weeks he/she has said they tried to deliver a package but actually didn't even make an attempt, then say they left a notice and didn't. If he/she follows course from the first 2 times, tomorrow they again will not make an attempt, but will leave the notice and claim it was the one they left the day prior.

/end rant


Anywho, placed my order on the 9th at about 10PM, which was a Thursday and actually was about 10AM on Friday in China, so that's pretty fast turnaround on an international order with free shipping, USPS be damned haha.


Will report back tomorrow after I get it, whether I have to go to the post office to pick it up or not I'll let you guys know on the actual quality of product, packaging, etc.

I may get flamed here but I certainly don't feel sorry for other venders at the end of the day we all pay over the odds for peaces of steel and go round saying there cheap I'll tell you what is cheap the company's who make the mods for pennies and sell for double triple figures pounds dollars. The venders don't feel sorry for charging us what they charge its business that's how the world works.

One more thing to be honest most of fasttech vaping stuff is being discontinued from other venders there older stuff like for example the MVP I have ordered its getting old now and there are rumours there is a new version coming soon so prices should be lower if other vender keep top wack prices on stuff they will be undercut.

I've got no issues with low prices and free shipping. If vendors choose to operate in an import-competing industry, it's their own risk. I'd take that as a cue for the American producers to start innovating to compete with foreign demand.

Can't sell a vamo at a low enough price to break even? Time to machine out a unique product that China hasn't as yet.

they have a load of new vape products. i feel very sorry for some of the honest vendors like DV. they might find themselves out of business

I wouldn't worry about DV. They seem to have good business sense. They're offering the MKB-TS for $30 lower than everybody else as far as I can tell... and they got my business for it. That's a significant savings.

Btw, I got my shipping notice from Fasttech on 5/21 Tues for my K100 kit. Anybody have an estimate on how long it takes to ship from Hong Kong here to the states? Thanks.

Yup I got my groove as an out and about mod don't care much if it breaks for around 46 from DV, not bad at all. Most vendors are charging a lot more for it.

What's the word on shipping time from Fasttech, Eric? I'm pretty sure I've read somewhere you've purchased from them before. Do you remember how long it took after you got your shipping notice? I'm wondering because I THINK? I heard that tracking info doesn't update on international the same as it does interstate, and I need to know when to stalk my mail-lady.

Haven't ordered yet but I've seen reports of 7 days to 2 weeks to the states. Patience is definitely required.
