Good prices and fast shipping with the ePacket option. Never use the free shipping, it'll take forever. For about a $1 more choose ePacket and it will take 10 to 15 days. :thumb:

I'll second that and add a few points:
  • Prices tend to be very good.
  • Fasttech is in China so shipping tends to be slow and it isn't a good choice for anything you want in a hurry. This is especially true around Chinese New Year, when the country seems to shut down for a week (much as we do between Christmas and New Year) and then spends the next month trying to sort out the backlog.
  • They sell a lot of clones, but they tend to be honest about what's what - as long as you understand the code. 'Authentic' means 'really made by the manufacturer we name', but note that that isn't always the original manufacturer. 'Styled' means clone. So, the Pico is made by eLeaf. That means:
    • Authentic Pico - a Pico actually made by eLeaf
    • Authentic SXK Pico - a Pico clone made by SXK
    • Pico styled mod - a Pico clone made by someone, somewhere
  • When you click on an item, it might be listed as "In stock", "Ships next day", "Ships in 2 (or whatever) business days" or "ETA (date)". 'Ships next day' and "in stock" are usually correct, the other two aren't.

Thank you so much everyone!

Well all this research about the vaping world is like going to University again, is so much to learn.

I visited couple of local vape stores and I was able to listen at their advice and some of them let me tried the diferent feeling between MTL and DL. Long story short after spending almost $600 on hardware, accessories and ejuice I ended enjoying both ways to vape and got the smok X priv kit (with the prince tank) for DL and the aegis legend with the Nautilius 2 tank but I being fighting this Nautilius 2 tank everyday, is such a pain to open and refill it (got a nasty cut in one finger trying to open this thing) even with some great advice I read here like using rubber gloves or placing the tank in the refrigerator. So last weekend I replaced it with another sub ohm tank the new Falcon Resin and so far so good.

Now I am in the hunt for a new MTL tank and a new mod. Maybe I will try the zenith because I can not find the famous kabuki you guys mention here so much.

Is amazing how my taste and lung air capacity changed in the last month. I know is too soon but I feel healthier already and I even lost some weight!! sorry for the long post
A lot of folks like the nautilus2. My experience with it is that it floods easily. Too easily in my opinion.

The Nautilus 2 only floods if you fill over the fill line, in my opinion . It's easy to DO THAT, but if staying under the fill line (1.7 capacity, not a true 2.0 ml capacity tank) you're usually okay. Plus, honestly, blowing gently out of the bottom air holes and catching the excess with a napkin takes about 30 seconds max, and really if I were to have ALMOST any tank issue with ANY tank, it would likely be flooding that I would want, since it is so ungodly easy to fix, etc.

Hi @Coyote628 and @stols001

I do own the Nautilus 2 tank and is IMO gives me good flavour and good drag feeling. I never experience major flood and like Anna mention just the normal excess cleaning with a napking.

My main problem (as other people I read on this site) is first the little capacity of this tank and how hard it is to open it to refill the juice. Yes is doable using rubber globes or putting the tank un the refrigerator for couple of minutes but still a hassle if you dont have that extra time to do it. The last straw was when I got a nasty cut in one finger (my fault I know) trying to open this tank.

This is why I am soon moving to a different MTL tank with a better way to refill the juice.

@stols001 I being reading and enjoying your posts and knowledge about MTL tanks, do you mind to share which one is your favorite?

Thanks in advance

My favorite nautilus coil tank is the Kabuki. Its price reflects that other people seem to like it too, although I guess a lifetime warranty doesn't HURT the situation.

My favorite CLR coil tank accepting tank (the Joytech CLR coils, 1.0 MLT goodness) is the Totally Wicked Oddessey tank and I like the ego one megas too and my favorites are the 1.0 version, not the 2.0 version, although I seem to have equal skill and dedication when it comes to killing them off, I really suck with that coil, but it's a great vape, I have to admit and NO ONE BUT ME seems to have this problem or if they do, they aren't posting about it anyway. LOL.

But yes, if I could keep one in operation the ego mega tank (really either version) and I am betting YOU could do it, and you want the Joytech CLR 1.0 coils for a nice MTL experience they can be rewicked and rebuilt even (the coils) and I would do that oh if only I had more LIVE tanks to put them in, IMHO the COIL is longer lasting than the tanks, the coil has its own thread, and it is just a fabulous vape in my opinion.

I like the Innoken Zenith tank a ton too, 4 ml capacity and today it is my favorite. Some days just go like that, I don't put the flavor above my Kabukis, but I do rate it above any Nautlius 2 for flavor and coils last FOREVER. I do mean forever. Just an overall well designed and nice tank and it's really got great flavor and a kinda innovative topfill system.

RTAs I like the Siren V2, the Ares, and the Doggy style tanks, sort of in that order more or less although I like ALL of them for various reasons and etc.

You are going to love it. A word of caution on the 1.6 coils, they have a break in period of about 2 tanks, before the flavor really gets going. The 0.8 coils are flavor monsters right out of the gate. So try both before ordering any new coils, and by try both I mean, remove one even if it's still good (because mine have been fine for implausibly long periods of time) other than the break in period I'm going to say the coils are somewhat similar, but I can't really remember back that far, but if and when my 0.8 dies on me, I will return to the 1.6 coil and see what I think.

There is also some new mesh coil that is just coming out, I haven't tried it yet, nor am I likely to, as someone who liked the 0.8 coil after trying it had already ordered a bunch of 1.6 coils, so I'm hoping I find it to be as more or less similar as I thought, although that tank and those coils could probably get me through a decade of vaping alone.

I don't know if I accidentally got sent the magic endless tank or something, but it's really nuts, .I do think my 0.8 coil is about to die, the vape is getting more restricted, usually my first sign.

Good luck and have fun!

Anna
