Just got my second order from fasttech, was supposed to be 3 attys Atomic,Trident v2, and TOBH. My package came with tape on the bottom, and was missing the trident v2. I hope the make it right. Even if they don't I will still order from them because I love there prices.

hopefully they make it right for you bud.
I had a issue with them where the first time i ordered a taifun steel tank and a drip tip showed up. so i emailed them they resent another taifun tank....
Only for the other to arrive as the right item but the package was ripped open and had burnt rubber on it and the steel was bent to heck,
Either a vehicle or a forklift ran it over lol...

Just received the "Da Iron
Mod" (SKU #1743802).

What a heap of junk! Besides the grotesque amount of "wobble" when left standing, the firing ring spins freely without a stopping point and the nut that screws onto the post of the bottom button appears to be Copper plated as opposed to pure copper.

The top cap housing, while better than the button, is mediocre at best (eg. 510 threading is loose)

Has anyone else had this unfortunate experience?

I have resorted to using the bottom button and top cap from my "Authentic" GP Paps Lux so as to get the damn thing to even function !

ah jeeze, I clicked on the wrong one. I wonder if they'd let me change it since it hasn't shipped yet.

Thanks for pointing it out PLANofMan.

Both items are over $20, just cancel the one you don't want, and reorder the one you do want. They were both ships next day, so better hurry or you will need to buy a bigger mod:D

Hi guys:D
I just received my Kamry K201 mod from Fasttech and I like it and all (it was inexpensive;I bought it for the puff counter, lol) but the contact inside seems a bit different.
Instead of a round contact inside for the positive end of the batt, it has some egg - shaped contact that isn't centered here are some photos - should I be concerned?
Does anyone else have this mod?

Just a little freaky to me...from what I can tell it isn't flush with the top of the in side there which is probably good.

I've been waiting a for over a week for the shipping status to be changed, I did however have another item that says ready to ship on 7/22 so maybe they're waiting to send it all at once.

if you have an order ready now except for 1 item that is expected to be ready on 7/22 then FT will wait and ship it all together, UNLESS you request to customer service (ticket) that they split the order and ship the ready items now,,

@tA71ana I know nothing about the mod but that is some deformity huh. That is the downfall with FT so long getting here then that.

I found out why they split my order, 1 of the tens units was not like it was suppose to be or missing a part so they are waiting a replacement part from manufacturer, sure glad they found it out when packaging they sent the rest on and explained in email. I am sure in no hurry. I have a good 1 I been using for a year just wanted to see how these were and the wife wants one.

Yeah I'm not sure I want to use this...it does have kind of a collar around one side but I just don't like that one side of it is so close to the the inside ring.
I'm concerned it may short out the mod :p
I don't need that.
I'll just chalk it up to experience.
I'll will have to learn to fix my own mods; maybe I can fix this one eventually.
In the meantime I will have to invest in a real mod, lol

You're gonna submit a ticket so they can fix it though, right? Looks defective to me...

Do you have a link? I can't get it to come up on a search.

Hard to tell from the pic. Almost looks like something is missing.


Edit: found it

Bought one of these $18.97 Aerotank Mega Style Clearomizer Kit - 3.8ml / 2.0ohm at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping because all the great reviews and i wanted something non rebuildable to have around. Received it yesterdat with 10 authentic heads because cloned heads usually suck.

Everything works as it should, threads are nice, thick glass, great drip tip, etc. My main gripes with it are the pin and the 510 sucks...hard, the design leaves a lot of unused space but i already knew from the reviews.

I had to file almost 1mm from the 510 threading because the pin sits inside.

Next, the flavor, all the reviewers(pbusardo, vapinggreek, twisted) talk about the good flavor it provides. Well, it's not that good imho, its' the same i had with regular aspire bdc's in january and miles below a KF. It has that clearo taste about it idk.

If you aren't into rebuildables this tank along with aspires are probably the best clearos on the market but unless you really need easy head replacement a KF or a fogger for the glass are miles ahead.

edit: i forgot to add if you buy the tank, buy authentic heads, the ones that come with the clone are awful

:mad: Cracked another Tank on my x8
$6.23 Authentic X8 2.5ml Electronic Cigarette Atomizer at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
Thought it was a too thick o-ring and replaced it with the new tank. Also ordered a 3rd complete x8.
I am now almost certain the bottom cap it machined wrong, o-ring groove to narrow and placing to much pressure on the tanks bottom area. Will not bother Fasttech with this one again. Gives me plenty of spare parts for the other two.

:banana: 4Nine and Magma are out for Delivery
$12.96 4Nine Style Mechanical Mod - 18350/18500/18650 at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
$15.79 Magma Style Rebuildable Dripping Atomizer - 1:1 clone / stainless steel at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

8 Days - Acceptance to Delivery :toast:

And it Arrived!!!!
Already loving the 4Nine..........Man is this thing tiny in 18350 mode.:blink:

Have to clean the Magma good before wicking. I can smell the machining oil in it. Well machined RDA. Can't wait to see how it performs for flavor.


EEEEk................LOL, just hit the 4nine while typing. Thought it shorted. Felt a jolt in my pinky finger.8-o
Then I realized the mod/battery isn't hot or even warm.
Arthritis and old age :glare:

They've really raised the price of all the new mods coming out. There are clones that can be found for the same price and cheaper in the US. It's disappointing.

Not sure if it disappointing, I now check a few US sites before opting at FT. It is nice not to be felt violated ordering from the US once again.
