The FastTech Thread For All FastTech Posts

[JerseyB.]

Just in case everybody is still confused about whats going on at fasttech, I send them a message and this is what they replied to me:


Hi,


Sorry about the wait.It is stuck in HongKong custom.We will reship your order quickly when the package is returned to us.

To safeguard aviation security, Hongkong Post does not accept the sending of air mail items (including Speedpost) that contain dangerous articles such as perfumery products, lighters and lithium batteries.
Hence, all mail items entering the Air Mail Center are subject to x-ray screening.
Recently, there is an increasing number of air mail items detected to contain suspected dangerous articles,
in particular, lithium batteries, which lengthens the screening process.
In this connection, air mail registration service, iMail service and Bulk Air Mail service may be subject to delay.
Any inconvenience caused is much regretted.

Source: Hongkong Post - Notices - Delay In Outbound Air Mail Services

The postal union has launched a wave of scrutiny on 9/10 which covers all major postal airmail shippers in Asia.

FastTech confirms that all battery/e-liquid airmail packages are being affected at this time. This includes HKP/USPS, and Singapore Post.

Packages *not* containing e-liquids/batteries will ship normally via SG post at regular speed. However those shipped via HK post will get delayed by 5 to 7 days (as we're told) as they queue up for the new mandatory x-ray scans.

We apologize for this and thank you for your understanding.

Can I assume that FastTech shipments will always follow the same path? Since all of my orders are going to zip code 55447, it would seem logical that the USPS Sorting Facility in Bethpage, NY will be the hub.

Has anyone seen a pattern?

Well, I believe there is hope for my FT stuff even though the two orders are still showing Acceptance, HK as of 9/11....

Wash them out GOOD before filling. I got a cheap tank and just rinsed and it still tasted like .... Took it apart gave it a good soaking with a bit of vinegar and after that went through it with denatured alcohol. I think they leave the factory with machine oil and coolant on them.

Perhaps this: https://www.fasttech.com/p/1438500

or this: $29.08 Nemesis Mod / E-Cigarette Battery Compartment - stainless steel / with telescopic pin at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

 

[vapero]

Those are my top two, I'm still leaning towards the nemesis as it has no air control ring that messes a bit the clean lines (just a bit)
but asking if I somehow missed a mod

 

[levisdaddy]

these have good reviews and cheap - $7.56 CE4+ 2-in-1 Rechargeable 650mAh E-Cigarette Set - black at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

I ordered these:

https://www.fasttech.com/products/1406702

Ordering five reduces the price to $6.70 a piece

Thank you both! Last night i ordered 6 of the former, came to around $7 ea!! I think the evod/ego kits would have been better, but by two AM i was ready to order and get to sleep already!

I wish i had seen the igo-w last night, i surely would have picked one up!!

i placed a large(ish) order last night. Granted, only one thing in the order was for me. I already see two things i left out. new panny 18650 and this aforementioned igo-w.

i only got myself a nimbus.
for others i got vamo kit ~$40
2 kanger protank 2 ~$24
6 ego 650 kits ~$43
nimbus (with 2or4 airholes ~$6
8-pack of ce4 ~$9

this is my 5th or 6th order with them, and by far my largest.
i wanna say it was sent china post. i really hope it doesnt get held up.......

and now i play the waiting game

Yeah, agreed that the Nemesis has cleaner lines. I have the Chi on it's way to me now, should be here within a couple of days (cleared SF)

haha AGREED!!, I got a few evod clearos from them and they just smelt like a machine shop and were a bit greasy in certain parts. Thoroughly wash those suckers!

The beauty of free shipping. Just put in another order!

 

[JerseyB.]

I just bought a genuine nemesis last week, and if the FT nemesis performs even at 75% of the real one, I'll most definitely be ordering one from them

 

[JerseyB.]

BTW: if anybody is looking to place a big order from Fasttech for their first time, or just purchase multiple items.. I suggest Breaking up the order in a few separate shipments, because in my experience, I've had a single drip tip hold up 15 items for a week because it wasn't in stock. It's still free shipping so its not like you'll be paying for shipping for every separate item...

 

[JRudey]

Do they still use the Erie Canal to transport goods from the East Coast to the Midwest? USPS says my shipment left their sort facility in Bethpage, NY yesterday. Nothing since then.

A better question is why your order is all the way over in NY when i thought they all came in through San Fran?

will the Nemesis and the chi-you work with 18490? if so How long is it going to measure, I'm looking for a small mod but don't want to get 18350s as I have a couple of 18490s
