You guys need to get your panties out of bunch and not be so defensive. Maybe answering my question by saying something like "no I don't worry, the companies I buy juice of have been around for a long while and I trust it, if nothing else, no ill has come out of tests already done to these juices by people wanting to get rid of vaping, good enough for me". See that's an answer to the question. Not attacking someone. Chill out and not be so defensive.
LOL, yeah we wouldn't want any really defensive posts, would we?

Had anyone bought one of the cheap m16 telescopic mech mods clones from FT? I'm just wondering if its good, as in the threads will be semi decent and last for more then a few days lol. The reason I'm asking is because of the price. Theyre like 11 dollars so if its a pile of link I'll just buy something a bit more in price. Thanks in advance.

A lot of the juice you buy in the States are mixed with concentrates from China, some juices are re-labeled Chinese juices. I wouldn't worry too much about those, but I have my doubts about pre-filled cartridges. You don't know how long those things have been hanging around and what kind of sanitation goes on in the sweatshops that fill them.

Wow. OK guys look at my first post. I asked if any of you ordering China juice were worried about vaping chemicals and metals. Yes I'm worried about what I eat and ingest from here in America. I don't swim in some of the lakes around me and don't eat some fish too. By no means am I blind to things from anywhere. I wasn't waving a US only flag. I buy plenty online and ft gets most of my business. But I do watch what goes in my body. For the most part, I don't eat processed foods, and cook what me and my gf eat. I don't push what I do on others. I wasn't pushing vape only US juice. You guys need to get your panties out of bunch and not be so defensive. Maybe answering my question by saying something like "no I don't worry, the companies I buy juice of have been around for a long while and I trust it, if nothing else, no ill has come out of tests already done to these juices by people wanting to get rid of vaping, good enough for me".

Don't think so. Millions of Cartridges a year. Likely Automated machinery filling and capping them.

We deploy automatic production process as well as ISO9001 and GMP certified quality management system
Quality is our focus. We follow international ISO9001 and GMP production practice to manage the process with the highest quality standard. Our 10,000 square meter factory is equipped with the most advanced production machines and testing devices to guarantee product consistency and production capacity. Every product batch is tested to ensure quality before it is sent out.

That's from the Hangsen home page... while the "high end" e-liquid manufacturers settle for "using only USP grade PG/VP" and a Made in the USA label.

I'm sorry if my post sounded aggressive, it wasn't my intention. I was just trying to explain why for me particularly, buying from a trusted china source is the same as buying from any other trusted source, after all they are all corporations and most are on this for the money not really worried about our health.

I think the general feeling is that America has stricter manufacturer regulations and oversight. China has a global reputation for poor quality control. An American company knows that we as a consumer can go after them if they pull the rain water stunt. With a Chinese Co. you would just be S.O.L.

Thus, it is thought that U.S. products are treated as safe as possible, if this is true or not is totally up for debate.

Personally, I D.I.Y. Saves a ton of money and I KNOW what is in my juice.

I can agree with you that in most cases this is true US QC is way above the Chinese QC, but juices aren't really regulated so we end up having to trust the manufacturers alone without regulations that protect us from bad practices.

I like the dekang dk tab been vaping it for 2 years and I'm still as ornery as ever. I just don't cough anymore and I actually have money left over since I don't blow it all on cigs. It always gets to me when someone comes up with this I have to buy american stuff. Some of the stuff in the US is just as bad if not worse.

Hangsen use PG sourced from Dow Pharmaceuticals in the US, can't trust what these sneaky Chinese companies put in their juices

well I ordered that hangsen juice, couldnt be bad at that price like lol. I used to buy my juice local from 2 b&m but was put off one after they didnt know what resistance was in a coil and offered to ask the manager. I decided to just stick to buying there juice and asked do you have testers for fruity flavours or just tobacco. she told me yes every flavour has a tester and if we dont have a bottle here I can go out back and mix you one up, my face dropped lol. a girl that didnt know what ohms were or very much of anything about vapeing really was going to mix my juice in the back of retail store lol.

just shows how safe local juice is really. now the wait for some ry4 and banana lol. :):):):)

It looks like all the other juice makers have some catching up to do.

The point about fake Hangsen/Dekang is a lot more relevant.

Mate of mine lives in Thailand and was telling me about a shipment of fake eggs :ohmy: that was intercepted from China.Perfect copies of real eggs but completley artificial.

I would have thought that chickens were relatively cheap but there you go.

I bought a 1100 mAh EGoCTwist from fastech - $11.78 EGO-C Twist "1100mAh" Variable Voltage Rechargeable Battery for E-Cigarette - silver / 930~950mAh actual capacity at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
But it turned out Dead on Arrival.

I am getting a replacement from them but I was wondering what experience people have had with egoctwist from fasttech. I have another egoctwist bought elsewhere it's pretty good. Are they any alternatives I should consider which are in a similar price range?

I found this - Vision Spinner - $12.82 Vision Spinner Style 1100mAh Variable Voltage Battery - 3.3-4.8V at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping. It seems to be almost the same as the egoctwist - anyone used this.

China post is starting to tick me off. I have received two packages finally, but I have 4 packages that have been stuck at the 'origin is preparing shipment' for 6 days now. The other two packages were here week after that status first showed up, but these? Who knows when they'll show up or what's happening with them. They should have arrived in the US by now.

What does it mean under the shipping options by this, ”Cylindrical batteries -Prohibited Built in batteries - OK E-liquids -Prohibited”. Does that mean mech mods are prohibited to ship? I believe it days that under all the shipping options

Mech mods do not have batteries in them, But the batteries that you PUT in them are prohibited from that shipping option. For cylindrical batteries I think you have to use Malissia post, but not sure on that as I order mine stateside.
