Too much PG for me now, but you can be our guinea pig! :thumbs: :laugh:

I have had really decent e-liquid from China though. I started out with SI (their original juice line was from China), and Liqua was pretty awesome. If flavor ends up weak, maybe you can still use it as base and tweak it with FA.


I was hoping to have someone else be the guinea pig. I haven't ordered anything from fastech in about a year. The last eliquid was a tester bottle of Clove, hangsen. To me it is very strong.. I couldn't vape it although it was tastey. I am mostly an unflavored yet like to vape some flavors. After 5 or so minutes my buds die.

These would be a nice match for the subtank bells i linked to earlier, except I don't like wide drip tips :(
Wide tips feel nasty! I don't like them either. But these aren't too bad. 12mm is my limit - anything bigger than that would be pushing it.

...hey, how's your burn? Doing OK?

You mean these?

I LOVE these! At 11mm diameter, they line up perfectly with that nubby part on KF top caps (I hate overhangs). Also, they NEVER feel hot on my lips, so they're great with my gennies. The glue they use is funky and doesn't take heat very well (the metal base still gets hot), but just a drop of any other kind of glue and they're good as new (I think I just used gorilla gel glue, and only had to do it once).

I hate really wide drip tips. They make me feel kinda naughty while I'm using them. :blush: :lol:

Those are good, they have the metal base. It's the old style soft acrylics and I don't see them around that much anymore. The bullet tips I really hate.

Wouldn't we all like to find a guinea pig other than ourselves? That price is certainly good enough. You can add more flavor or dilute it, which ever. Too much pg for me too. I did notice that Hagsen also has a 100% vg line on FT. I tried to find out if it was 100% including flavoring (FT says yes) and didn't get very far. I "think" juices still come in on the slow boat, so it really wouldn't hurt to order and forget it until they arrive.

Wide drip tip seem to be the norm anymore. Those are mild compared to some of them. I noticed today that a lot of ming shapes were discontinued.

I've been looking at the Zero mod with removable cover. Sure is tempting.

Grrr. I guess I won't be the guinea pig. I can't purchase without using paypal. I have no interest in getting a paypal account. Maybe I will try again with it.

I do not like fat drip tips. My favorite and only plastic ming seems to be in no threat of being discontinued. I have four. $11.88 Long-neck Vase Acrylic 510 Drip Tip (10-Pack) 10-pack - 35mm / ships one of each color at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

I received this $3.02 Universal Replacement Top Cap w/Refilling Hole for Kayfun / Orchid RTAs at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping the other day. Replaced the o-ring with a stock o-ring, which is a bit fatter, and resolved a leak problem.

Got a bunch-a these $1.21 Replacement Acrylic Tank for Orchid V4 RTA Rebuidable Tank Atomizer - translucent at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping for my Orchids, and I now have 5 ml capacity and quick refills.

Hmmm, these are kind of pretty:

I keep wanting to buy pretty ones, then I chicken out and end up with the stubby jerry can ones. :facepalm: :laugh:
The only non-tuby ones I have are the SS one I posted earlier with the "trailer hitch" at the top and this one:

@QRXT is so sweet. I really wanted this DT, so she bought me TWO of the whole atty. :wub:

oh, and this one:


one of the ones I want next is the Taifun GS one:

So nice that they're selling these separately now. Oh, dang! Falling into another pattern! :facepalm: :blush:

...hey, how's your burn? Doing OK?

Hi Cindy - thanks for asking. The burn on my thigh does hurt a little when I walk but it's nothing too serious. Funnily enough though I discovered another slight burn on my chest. That doesn't hurt at all and I only discovered it when I went in to shower in the evening. It's like a couple of small scabs surrounded by some redness - but no pain or itching or anything. Must have come from some flying sparks. What's bothering my most though is the soot!! I've wiped down my room and washed the floors twice with plenty of water and I'm still finding soot! It's crazy!

haha time to repaint! :laugh: Dishwashing liquid and a scrubbie sponge maybe...

Glad you're OK. Dunno about burns like that. I had a similar one that took FOREVVVER to fully heal! :eek: But all better now. Mine left a mark though - kinda looks like a vaccination scar - might wanna put some kind of scar eraser cream on it. ;)

Oh I do like these!! I think the vase shape also keep them from getting too hot.

Yes I like those a lot and they do stay cool however those are like the ones I've had such lousy luck with them snapping off at their base, sometimes before a single tank has finished. In all fairness, I do like some heavy citrusy juices and if they eat away at pc, they are probably eating away at these. The more expensive handcrafted tips like Drip Tips Desigz or Molehill Mountain don't seem affected.

IMO, a drip tip can take a mod from meh to something of total pleasure. It's worth the hunt. FT also excels at colored tanks. The ones I've had have a thin window tinting type film on the outside, but with care they are lasting fine for me. These tanks were from FT.

I don't care for metal tips. I can taste it. Just a personal preference. The 510 connection is metal and that lasts longer than if it was just acrylic.

The whole point of all these drip tip styles and materials is to alter the vapor slightly. At FT prices a person can afford to play around and try a variety.
