As we were talking about batteries on FT the other day. Today is another good example of bs batteries. They've listed an 18350 at 30 amps. What a load of rubbish.
They keep listing them as 'authentic' -----whatever, and I've never heard of the brands!One of the reasons I am wary of Batteries from FT
They keep listing them as 'authentic' -----whatever, and I've never heard of the brands!
When I buy batteries, I pass it through this rubbish detector first![]()
they are "Authentic" to that company who has bought them from the real makers and then re-wrapped them, the only true makers are LG, Panasonic, Samsung & Sony, maybe one or 2 others, their grade A batteries get put into their components like original laptop batteries, some will be wrapped and sold as their own like the He2s, VTCs and R25s, their grade B will also end up being wrapped and sold by them, the grade C will be bought by people like Torchy and Andy Wan re-wrapped and sold as their own, all the rest will be bought by inscrutable dealers who will re-wrap them and pretend they are something they are notYes i rolled my own for around the last ten years of smoking Bob. my banner should be a lot higher than it is, because before roll up`s i used to smoke superkings black ( 20/30 a day ) but there is no way i am working it out.Yes, was having a hunt around last night, trouble is finding one that doesn't say 600 days and $, you obviously rolled your own looking at the savings.

So, in a nutshell: totally misleading!they are "Authentic" to that company who has bought them from the real makers and then re-wrapped them, the only true makers are LG, Panasonic, Samsung & Sony, maybe one or 2 others, their grade A batteries get put into their components like original laptop batteries, some will be wrapped and sold as their own like the He2s, VTCs and R25s, their grade B will also end up being wrapped and sold by them, the grade C will be bought by people like Torchy and Andy Wan re-wrapped and sold as their own, all the rest will be bought by inscrutable dealers who will re-wrap them and pretend they are something they are not
We used to smoke those until they got too expensive, then we switched to Sterling SK, still get those when I go over to the continent for the missus thoughYes i rolled my own for around the last ten years of smoking Bob. my banner should be a lot higher than it is, because before roll up`s i used to smoke superkings black ( 20/30 a day ) but there is no way i am working it out.![]()
That's why I always recommend getting them from reputable vape outlets over here.So, in a nutshell: totally misleading!![]()

Yep thats included Trish, though he will get it trade price i am guessing.Result! Nice...does that include the tap too?
I watched a couple of reviews on the Goblin George, and if built correctly they look pretty damn good.Ordered a 2nd Triton,a UD Goblin mini,a set of 11 re-building screwdrivers,2 battery condoms,some Kanthal(twisted),a mini plus rba
and a pair of pointed ceramic tweezers(i only had flat tipped ones before).
Think i may have got the last Goblin mini,it said ships next day when i ordered but went to ships in five days after,i was thinking Poo!! that will delay postage and was going to cancel it, but it has shipped.
