Well if we knew the name of the container cargo ship that left HK. we could track it's GPS progress all the way across the Pacific

Vessel Finder - Free AIS Ship Tracking of Marine Traffic

OMAO Shiptracker

Just look at all that traffic in the ports over in China after that Typhoon blew thru!!! It's a flipping traffic jam!!!!!

This is just the ship tracker zoomed in close to Hong Kong

All those yellow icons are cargo ships!
The zoomed out view of the coast of China is INSANE!

I believe the cargo hold is pressurized. If Fido is to big to ride in the cabin that's where he has to sit.
Yes and No
Commercial Passenger flights, most planes have been retro-fitted for full pressurization and heat equalization. Othres still have small Pressurized compartments for Pets, live animals.
Cargo Carrier planes are for the most part only replaced with newer design as they are retired from service. Most of these carry bulk cargo and Large sealed containers.

Sucky Vape day. Trying to get rid of no longer used e-liquids......YUCK!
Igo-L doesn't even like them. 2 coil builds later it is still acting like I poisoned it.:laugh:
RSST refuses to Vape decent on anything but the Vamo Stacked, yet the coil is working fine and wicking like crazy.:facepalm:
Going to finish the evening with my eVic and dIY cappuccino while staring at my FT Cart full of Dreams.:(

Regarding the iclear and ego batteries:
Had a brand new ego battery and iClear16 for someone-they called to say it was like the threads were stripped. We took them a new iclear-same thing with the battery appearing to be striped. We gave them a new battery and their original iClear worked fine with the new battery. Now trying the battery I took back from them-all the iclears seem to fit just fine.

Second battery (Engraved 900 mAh): All my old iClears that Ive used for awhile-will not screw on-however new iClears will screw on fine. My old iClears that wont work with this battery-work fine on all my other batteries.

Confused yet? lol

This somehow assumes that people upset about shipping delays somehow don't have any empathy to people who are suffering.
I take offense to that.
This is a FastTech thread. Don't troll, it's not cool.

You can assume and take offense to anything you like. As far as "empathy to people suffering goes", most of the posts related to misfortune are more concerned about their shipments; some even made fun of it. The fact that you need to say someone is trolling because they spoke their minds means absolutely nothing to me. If you're so offended, block me and carry on.
BTW I know exactly what thread this is.

I am wondering if the packages that are taking longer were all orders that hit the Hong Kong inspection a few days before and a few days after 9/11? As it seems I am seeing that orders prior to that or placed a few days/week past that are getting thru? Just a thought.

Mine shipped on 9-10, I have seen others that shipped after mine have already gotten there packages, so might be....

Burnie,

I got an e mail notice this afternoon that my package arrived at the 'unit'.

So, be hopeful for tomorrow or Tuesday.

Ordered the 7th

Accepted on the 10th

Processed through sort facility on the 19th

Arrival on the 22nd......that confuses me a bit as today is Sunday, so where is the actual package.....:confused:

I'm coming in late to this thread, so please be kind to me.

Is the Fasttech order backup due to too many vapers buying from them or from the Typhoon...or a combination of both?

I placed a $45 order 10 days ago and it remains unshipped yet none of my items had a wait status of longer than 3 days. FT isn't answering their tickets within 24 hours anymore, more like 48+, and the answers are short with little info. So my order still sits unshipped.

When I watched all the vape gear FT have added over the last 2 months I wondered whether they had a breaking point. So did we break them? :blush:

Well I just checked and mine still says "Acceptance
September 10, 2013, 2:46 pm
HONG KONG "
But I will get it when I get it. I have another order that is "Supposed to ship the 23rd", but with the storm, who knows. I have other stuff to hold me over, but I would sure like my new toys...

HK post has been scanning ALL PACKAGES for batteries and e-liquid. Read back a few pages and it will explain everything. Vape On...

On your order page at FT there should be a status next to each item whether its ready to package or they are still waiting on it. They may say "3 days" but the are taking someone else's word for that. If you get bored waiting you can still cancel that item to get the rest moving. They either give you store credit or refund back to paypal.

May seem like a trivial item... unless you are a DIY person or distribute kits like I do.
I saw bad reviews of these needle tip bottles among some good reviews so I didn't buy any. I decided last order to get 100 of them in various sizes because of the price, it was hard to pass up. Turns out, they work pretty well. The needle is a bit small for my liking, but it works with typical 70/30 mixes Ok. Pure or heavy VG probably wouldn't work too well though. These are the relatively soft bottles. Though I'd post a couple pictures...

The 10 ML and the 30 ML are great it is the 50 ML I had issues with since the needle is not locked on.
