My order shipped with my Caravela, my unmentionable and several other things I couldn't resist. :banana:

:banana: :banana: :banana: .... I can't wait for it to get here, so we can have two devices that we share in common, like in grade school when you get the same outfit as your best friend and take pictures. :laugh: We'll be so cute together! :party:

Just wondering, but what site are you guys using to check the tracking of your EMS shipments? When I do a search on Google, atleast 9 different sites come up. Just want to know which one is most reliable/updated.

I use this one all the time ... https://tools.usps.com/go/TrackConfirmAction?qtc_tLabels1

There is another super tracking site, 17Track or something ... but the link is like .. wayyyyyyyyyy back around pgs 40 something :blink:

I emailed Doris asking if the Zero tank on the group buy was glass and not acrylic like posted on the website, and got a reply 9 minutes later stating it was glass. Pretty fast response for a vendor in my books.

That is because Doris is a WORKAHOLIC! ... When I speak to her, I always tease her by saying Ms. busy pants workaholic ... and its true, she is, luckily for us. :) So did you take the plunge and buy the Zerotank?

It's coming Vykos, it's coming!! Hopefully you will feel like our friend rick roll once it arrives :rickroll:

This is how I'm going to feel when my just placed order gets to me. It's coming from Germany so I'm just not going to do my usual vape stalking.
No Focal in my future with all these other must have high end items coming in stock.

The quality of the products at Focalecig is very good .. they have several top notch winners in their inventory, as well as a couple of Hcigar pieces ie: Taifun GT and GS. Their 18350 Caravela is too die for in terms of quality and machining, as are their Kayfuns, of which they have a few. The Nemesis, Origin, and Astro mods are also really good. And as @PhatRon said, their customer service is top notch, so Focal is a very good vendor to buy from.

Thanks! :)

Make sure that when cleaning you pay extra attention to the base ... the majority of the machine oil smell and taste is inside the air flow channels. While I don't soak my devices, I do pour grease cutting detergent directly into the air flow path in the base, and repeatedly rinse with very hot water. I repeat this several times, blowing out the air hole in between washes. I do the same down the center tube on the top cap, and the drip tip.

Can't wait to hear your feedback once you get it set up ... I have moved on to a xc-116 3mm wick and micro build, and WOW ... no need for a top wick, and the flavor is stellar! I also think that the Taifun GT is gonna look stunning with the new 23mm Caravela Mod set that Focal just put up .. ahh, may the next 10-15 days go very quickly, cuz I can't wait to put these two together! :)

Now that is what I call torture! So close, yet so far away :unsure: ... I hear that the same thing happens when US packages that hit California. Thank God NY ISC processes my packages quickly, usually in a few hours, a full day at the most.

Come on Heathrow, move it!!!!

Yes, I know this very well. If you had consulted me prior to your FT purchase I could have stopped you, and saved you a few bucks. The Focalecig 350 Vela is a 23mm EHpro, which is not compatible with FT's 22mm Caravela's.

I bet you would have if I hung around here more often.

This forum is easily the biggest of which I'm a member, it feels impossible to keep up with everything.

I had two more questions and Doris got right back to me. I ordered 2 of the k101 and 2 of the Protank 2 from the last group buy in four seperate orders and 3 have shipped already. I am going to order 1 of the Zerotank but now trying to decide on the Protank 3 just added to the group buy. Wallbuys put some Panasonic 18650's to their group buy if anyone is interested. Thank you Nikkita for all the help, I really appreciate it.:)

I felt that way too but then I started using the what's new tab on the top left hand side. I typically view my post and today's classifieds. I do venture out from time to time apif something interest me but I typically use those to keep up with the threads I am interested/active in or want to be active in. The my post will list the threads you comment in

grrrrr.... i ordered my KFL from fc 20 days ago and its still not here :( i even went as far to get a tobeco clone from the local B&M till then, and i like it "OK" but it just doesnt match flavor of my dripper even close... i dont know whats wrong. it may be how i built it or maybe i got a bad one? well, time to go surf the KF threads and try and find an answer and try and avoid all these group buys yall keep talking about! maybe Nikkita did find it and snag it :?: lol

Vykos, go to Post #1393 and start there......pics and descriptions on KFL builds. I've never dripped unless it was purely by accident, I know nothing about it, LOL!
For me, I was vaping PT2's at 2.2 ohm (Kanger Tech replacement heads), then I started rebuilding them with 1.5ohm/30 ga. and cotton. Flavor popped!
Then I went 1.0ohm/28 ga. when I got the KFL. (actually got one that read .8 ohms and it blew me away!)
Will it rival dripping? I don't know. But any questions on the KFL's, fire away here on this thread.
Also.........drop Doris a line on your order. I wasn't seeing any movement on my Russian 91%'s, dropped her an email, she got right on it and it went in the post that same day. I had placed the order on the 22nd of February.

The other tracking services are 17track[Together Tracking], International Registered/Parcel/EMS/Express Tracking System and Universal Package Tracking Service @ Packagetrackr.

@Nini I checked out your tutorial to see if there was something different as opposed to every build I've seen of the KFL. They're all pretty much the same which has me banging my head.

I cannot get mine to produce the vapor (yours looks stellar) results like your pic. And flavor is totally muted.

I've tried 28 & 30g kanthal. Cotton/eko/yarn/mesh.... You name it I tried it (although I've not tried the XC-116 yet).

Out of all the gear I have this has been the only one to kick my ....
