hopefully USPS is just sucking with tracking and I get it this week.

Very likely.
The package I got over a week ago still shows as stuck at my local PO, it was "stuck" in SF most of the time (more likely it was along with the package that was getting updated the whole time). I just got a Mail Innovations package that was a day behind in its USPS part of the tracking and it didn't register as delivered when I checked after it was.

Pretty sure fastech is about to blow my mind and get me my stuff in 7 days, order to door. (Obv Jinx)
Did jinx myself, but it was only 8 days order to door, still quite speedy imo. Improvement over last order's 14 days, maybe they're getting faster.

The stainless v3 Vamo battery cases are actually pretty nice! The spiral pattern is much less obtrusive than i expected.

Heck, I ordered stuff from Capellas and a couple other approved suppliers that take longer than that. Capellas took twice that long (literally).
I'd like to see some photos of their stock and shipping. I'll bet it's an absolute madhouse at fasttech right now.

Ditto..Id like to know myself...... Also if there is an RSST or genesis type clone there...

This is their Genesis clone:

https://www.fasttech.com/products/1346104

(Despite several others with 'Genesis' in the name including a 'Genesis Nimbus' clone...)

I have this one. I like it a lot, still using the coil it came with (looks crappy, but vapes well), so I don't know how easy it will be to rebuild -- it is very small. Don't know about fit on a Reo Grand... but the OP was asking about a bottom feeder, not an RBA.

That's a Phoenix clone. Genesis is a tank style RBA.

I found this exact thing happen to me. So naturally I hit the panic button. The kind folks here calmed me down and I found it in my mailbox a couple of days later!

........ PD was barely any better than Samsung ICR and it had the drastic curve I've seen claimed of B to say they weren't good. So far B is at 50%, I'm not seeing any drastic curve yet and it is where I would expect it to be for the rated mah.
As far as drain goes, maybe it matters with sub ohm and mechs but all the NCRs I've heard about have a large enough drain to power any thing I've run through a calculator. Unless you're running 30w and extreme sub ohm I really don't see what I've seen claimed is the B's limit to be an issue. .......

I just ordered a couple of the Sanyo 18500 batteries. I think the discharge rate on these is a little over 3 amps, but since my coils are in the 1.5 to 1.7 ohm range, I should be fine, correct?
