I’ve noticed that fastech’s prices on a lot of hardware hasn’t been great lately. I can find many products for the same or less expensive here in the states.

Of course, we’ll pay shipping for US shopping unless we reach a certain dollar amount but that’s easy to do.

The only stuff I’ve been buying from there has been accessory items like extra glass tanks. When I find a RTA I really like I always stock up on replacement tanks. Now bear in mind, I’ve never broken a glass tank yet but im a bit .... about being prepared as if many of you hadn’t noticed from the Stocking Up thread.

Has anyone else noticed this or maybe it’s just the gear I’ve been looking for.
I wonder if it’s the tariffs?

It’s a dedicated single coil for restricted DL. I’m not sure if it’ll be restricted but I don’t think it’ll be real airy.

Fi, how many tanks do you break?
So far since rebuildables with glass have started, only 1, the Crius I that flew off my gown pocket (I wash my attys at my bathroom sink) and crashed. More than broke it really cracked.
So far (knock on wood) it's the only one. Even the difficult bell shaped glass of the Nautilus mini came out unharmed after I threw it against a wall for not making contact with the base... And it came out unharmed...
I usually knit holsters to carry my mod around the neck, specially in summer when I'm clothes light. That way it's always around, and I knit one for every mod I have...
I'm a little behind, but it's the best solution!

I just use those ugly vape bands and my tanks are almost always wearing one

I’ve NEVER broken one lol! Now I probably jinxed myself :shock:!! I don’t use RTAs that often though so that’s probably why.

Although I did drop a mod mod w the Zeus single(my fave) when I was outside with my dogs -NOOOO!!!- but thankfully it landed in a small patch of snow over concrete!!! But I already have extra glass for that atty “just in case” lol!!

That’s s great idea to make holsters. You should sell them. I bet a lot of people would buy them.

I use to use vape bands on my sub ohm tanks but they’re a pita on bubble glass but I really love the look and extra capacity of them.

You hit the random color lottery! I’m afraid I’d get orange and olive green , or whatever the least lovely combo is

haha.. that's what I thought when I opened the box! Lottery win!

Looks great. I should really just roll the dice on one.

You should. Mine has green in it, but between the black and the blue as well I find it reminiscent of the Northern Lights, and I think it's awesome.

What is it?

As Tralfaz has already mentioned, it's the Revenant Cartel. It's a really well reviewed mod, as far as function..

The fear with everyone is over the fact we can't choose color at the time of purchase, it's a random dice roll what you will get when you order.

But when you see real pictures of what everyone has, they are gorgeous almost no matter the color. It's why I went ahead and held my breath and rolled the color dice.

I'm so not disappointed!

Wow the crius, that's a blast from the past. Was my favorite for a minute. Think I still have a couple somewhere..... lol

Was a hot thread back in the day.

Looking forward to seeing how it does for you. Sure is a good looking mod!

Oh that’s right- I’ve been interested in a couple of mods with resin panels (maybe the same one?) but was afraid to buy it without being able to pick the color.

So far it's got a nice vape.. and the battery door is awesome, it latches instead of being magnetic, so I like that.

It's not very wide at all so my full size (25mm) Hastur has a slight overhang and seems too large on this mod. Definitely have to use a different topper, but the Hastur was what I have built atm so I just threw it on.

But this is all the farther I've gotten. As I get into it more I'll certainly give a heads up..

I bought battery wrappers last summer from Amazon. I think it was like a one million for $12 lol! But I didn’t know enough then to know I needed those round insulator rings.
If you still need some, they have them at Amazon. Just search battery insulators.

Good morning shiners! Now a 24 hour wait for deliveries to resume. Worst part is I already got a tracking text that one of my packages is at my local post office. Holding off on the impulse to just go for a smash and grab. Mostly because I don't think I'll have enough time to dig through all the package containers to just find mine. But if I did...............:rolleyes:

Good morning all. I got nothing done yesterday so I have got to do some housework today. I did rebuild two tanks, both leaked, had to redo them, and now I’m getting a very unfavorable vape from both. Got so frustrated I just sat and binged Turn Up Charlie on Netflix. Nothing like a little Idris Elba to cheer a girl up.
