Aleader Funky Squonk Resin Kit - 7ml

I want one!

Nice. But, I still like the other more because it looks a little more comfortable to hold.

 

[b.m.]

I just watched some reviews on the Fuchai Squonk. They weren't very favorable. Is it still working well for you?

More important, have you had some time with the Aleader yet? That's the one I really want.

On the Fucahi,i've seen some negative stuff in the reviews too,but i really like it.I don't use temp control,so no problems there,and i've heard it won't do a true 150 watts like they claim,but i don't vape over 40-45 watts,so that is not an issue for me either.The only real complaint i have on it is the bottle,it is small.They say it's 5ml,but when you put the tube in there,i doubt it holds more than maybe 4ml,i haven't measured,but it definitely doesn't seem like 5.There is some pretty noticeable battery sag when you push the button,at least according to the screen,but it hasn't affected the draw at all,so i think that could possibly just be a bad reading from the board.
On the Aleader,it is a very lite weight mod,even with a full bottle and a battery,it is very lite.It seems like a nice mod for the price,but i had read a lot of people complaining about leaking,but some said a 7x1mm o-ring would solve it,so got those the same time i got the mod.I used it for a while the day i got it,then sat it on the shelf over night.The next morning,everything around it was soaked with juice that had poured out of the vents on the bottom of the mod,i haven't used it since.I had put the o-ring in the 510 before i ever used it,and i swapped out the bottle that came in it,because they sent me a blue mod,with a pink bottle haha.So,i don't know if the leak came from the 510 or the bottle i put in it.I want to like it,so i have a couple of new bottles coming to try in it and see if the leak stops.As for now though,i had one of the newer ones with the metal body and resin doors in my cart,but until i figure this one out,i took that out of my cart.

China shipments have slowed to a crawl for me.
A 3F package shipped Nov. 24 hasn't hit customs, I fear this one is lost.
No sign of a FT pkg shipped Dec 6.
A Health Cabin pkg left NY customs Dec. 18, still hasn't made it to FL.
Hopefully next week will show some movement....

You may start to see some stuff here soon.I had a ft package ship Nov. 24 too,and was at the point that i thought for sure it was lost,but it just finally cleared customs in Chicago today,so stuff is moving,but very slowly.

That's encouraging about the Fuchai. I also do not use TC and only vape below 10W. So, that'll do.

Let me know what happens with the Aleader (the pretty one).

It's ordered but with 3F it'll be at least a month before I have it. I'll report back in February

Merry Christmas everyone!

I ordered some Vaporesso NRG CCell coils from this company. It’s the only one I could find that carried the .5 version for some reason.

Says it’s authentic

 

[stols001]

If fasttech says it's authentic, it is. Clones are usually labeled "styled". But you can trust FT to send you authentic (it may take a while.... If only their shipping were as excellent as their labeling, LOL). You will get your coils but you may not get them fast.

It's not Fasttechs fault,but shipping is really screwy right now.I had a package shipped 11/24 and it just finally made it through customs yesterday.I had another order shipped 12/18,and it cleared customs yesterday.Almost a month apart,and coming through the same day.I figure either it took a long time to get a full plane to send,or customs in Chicago was really far behind,and just starting to get caught up.I kinda think it may be a customs backup,since 99% of all my China orders have always went through Chicago,but the last few months they kept getting redirected to New York,these 2 coming now are the first out of about 20 to hit Chicago in the last several months.

Agree.
The 3F pkg I thought was lost, shipped 11/24, made it into customs today.

Did it go into Miami since your in Florida,or did it go to Chicago?These that i have coming now have been unusual,but the last several i had that were rerouted to New York moved really fast,like 8 days or less from time of shipping to my door.I kinda wish all my stuff would start going through NY haha.

This one did come to Miami. Another one came through NY, and another through Chicago.
Miami is always quicker for me.

I was starting to think my package was lost in space until I read this thread again. Shipped the 5th or 6th and still says China on tracker

Well that’s a relief. I figured it will take awhile since it’s from Asia but I’m all set with a couple that I got w lower resistance until these arrive.

That is a long time!!

 

[aikanae1]

I was worried about stuff going through LA getting caught up in their wildfire madness, but I haven't heard of it happening.

That long wait time probably had a lot to do with the Christmas rush season. Things should get back to normal in the next couple of weeks when they clear the backlog out.
