Hello, just found fasttech as well and omg there goes my next paycheck... My husband currently has a provari and I was wanting to get him a mech for sub-ohm vaping. I was wondering if I could get some help.. I'm getting the black k100 without the kit, and I need to buy a couple pair of good batteries for it. I need two 18650's and two 18350's. There are just too many options up there for me to pick and get them right.

Also he has been using a smoke rba octo and squid for the past 3 weeks.
Are these similar? Do they work well? Has anyone tried them? Do they fit/work well on the k100?
$40.44 RDA Mini Rebuildable Dripping Atomizer (10-Pack / 1.0mL) 10-pack - ships with one of each color / 2.4
I probably wont get him all 10 colors, but it is temping :lol:

Thanks for your help

I haven't seen any 18350's that I would recommend yet. As for 18650's there are a set of panasonics that get a lot of love on the forums

$11.03 Panasonic CGR18650CH Rechargeable 2250mAh 3.7V 18650 Lithium Batteries 2-pack - authentic cells / 2-pack at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

And these Sony's with a 30amp limit - as featured in the thread http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/general-e-smoking-discussion/429847-18650-face-off-sony1600mah-30-amp-battery-vs-panasonic-2250-cgr18650ch.html

I haven't tried that RBA, so I can't comment sorry.

Does anyone have any feed back on the nimbus clones? I see they both have additional air holes which is great so I won't have to drill them out or add like with an Igo-L

Recived my nimbus clone today.. Meeehhh i think its a bad design. I do have a very good intense flavor but almost no vapor production and i think is because the air holes are way to high in the air control ring and the coils are at the very bottom of the coil deck, also the psitive pin protrudes far way outside on the 510 threding in my mech its not a problem because i can adjust the center pin on the mech but in my regulated mods is too long.

I think i will give this thing a thumb down. I was exited bcause the stainles steel finish look awesome on my zmax and my svd

Lol. Please don't answer my q with another q. Some products on fast tech have inconsistencies such as their really cheap eGo batts. Other ECFers answered my q. Been wanting an MVP and the best deal seems to be from here

I really did not know what you were trying to ask. I thought maybe you had a problem with one or something. Ref. summed it up, they are genuine. The deal is really hard to beat.

As far as I know all MVP's have the button wobble unless they did a mid model fix that I have not heard of. Frankly it is the one thing that I really don't like about the MVP (well that and the puff counter but that really isn't a big deal). I still haven't done the mod to fix the button wobble. but I will.

Is Singapore post better than HK post, my X6 shipped today with SP for the first time.

Going by my own experience, Singapore post was 1 week quicker than Hong Kong post, the problem is that there are so many variables it's difficult to say if that is typical or not, someone else may come on here and say they have had the complete opposite experience.

I purchased these 14500 batteries for my Rider Robust A, anyone else have these from FT?

Personally I wouldn't touch Ultrafire batteries with a bargepole, ultrafire source their batteries from a variety of sources (including recycled batteries) and rebrand them as ultrafire.

The general consensus on E-cig forums is to avoid any batteries with fire in their name.

This is an article on the Ultrafire 18650 batteries, it makes you wonder about the quality of their other batteries too.

The "tank" is the clear part, and it gets fed down into the atomizer by a cone that pierces the tank. Are you trying to put it directly into the bottom part to fill it? That is the part that can be used for dripping only.

cone? there's no cone....
they are open ended (figured that wasn't right), the one that came with the atomizer...the refill ones have a flat bottom to them with a little whole that the atomizer pierces into...but still nothing keeping the liquid from just seeping out.

The tank like thing isn't a tank, I bought some attys and tanks from heavens gifts and all the attys had the plastic mouthpiece which confused me as I was expecting plain attys, when I opened the tanks they were different and had a silicon or plastic endpiece in the tank which sealed around the atomiser spike. From the description you have given they look more to be used like a cheap drip tip.

yeah...from reading other posts about people dripping that is exactly what I think these are....grrrrrr...oh well live and learn and they were cheap :) maybe I'll give dripping a try I donno....

ok my 2 cents worth...maybe it's just me having a bad time but ug

so I bought a generic vivi nova from fasttech...it came doa, i rinced it, filled it (not with anything known to kill tanks) pressed the button and heard a cracking sound...within less than a minute it was cracked to hell everywhere

so fasttech was nice enough to replace it on my next order....while waiting for it I got a metal case from health cabin....
and now again day one of the new vivi nova clone and the rubbery cone piece that sits ontop inside the lid (hope that makes since) has come apart...this time yes I'm using a known tank cracker...clove oil, cinnamon, anise, bla bla bla....so while the metal casing is intact the rubbery innards apparently aren't going to work....

so just my 2cents worth unless using these for simple things don't get the vivi nova clones. in its defence I kinda doubt even an authentic vivi nova wouldn't work either as I said i think my concoction would kill anything not metal lol but really only one day's use....

Most things are clones. Beleive me, the SVD is original. I wouldn't buy heads or clearos, but that is completely original.

It should be known by now that the FT Innokin stuff is original especially to those of us who own them. To clarify I'm strictly speaking of the addys you brought up. Apparently, there are clones of the clones and such but the one from the Hcigar is supposed to be pretty solid for a clone of say the oddy and igo-l. I haven't received those two from FT yet but that's what I can gather from my research.

It's VERY time consuming but I spend a lot of time weeding through the discussions of items on FT and further researching those leads to find the correct info. There is a lot of misleading info on FT not to mention the entire internet! I try my hardest to get to the bottom of it before I order and then take it hands on from there.
