Thank you
Misery loves company and I am miserable.
I will never place an order for $128 all at once again.
I did learn that.
I will break up my orders from now on.
I just really want my stuff.
sigh
and
a hug, too!

Dang, I waited a whole week... withdrawal and everything, for new products and what do I get? A bunch of bunny drip-tips, cell phone cases, and yet another King clone mech with 2nd grade etching that I don't want.


sigh

To be fair the insulated tips look interesting... And at least the bunnies have different clothes on :)

Each time I start looking at devices like this one I start running into information overload:

https://www.fasttech.com/product/1352000

I'd like to buy my wife a nice rig for her birthday, but we're simple eGo clone people. I'm impressed with the REO, but not ready to commit $144 to a PV. I also looked at this deal:

https://www.fasttech.com/product/1400400

and this deal:

https://www.fasttech.com/product/1382801

Looking for durability and simplicity. We won't be using any extra bells and whistles. Don't need smartphone attachments. Something that doesn't leak would be really nice. Any recommendations?

I am up for the MVP2 next, but I need to wait :p I've not been interested in the square iTaste VW but it seems a good option to have the SIZE of a basic eGo WITHOUT the heft of the eVic :/ One thing I don't like about my eVic is it's SO HEAVY and so HUGE. I have a fried with the X6 coming in from FT, so I'll ask her if she's got it in yet. I think she just got the TVS in, so it may be awhile for the 'shine' of the TVS to wear off :p

Let me know what you & your wife think of the iTaste VV and the MVP2 if you get them!

I don't think this has been posted yet..

Updated 10/5

New Update for Packages That Stuck at Hong Kong Post and shown as "Acceptance"

As we mentioned last week that we will give the final solution for the packages that stuck at Hong Kong Post for weeks. After numerous complaints and multiple visits, for the packages are still waiting to be processed without an estimate of the process, The Hong Kong Post finally gave us a posting guarantee to sign and have guaranteed that all packages will be processed within next week.

The guarantee is designed to speed up the processing of the packages. It requests us to guarantee that all packages must be completely free of Li-Ion batteries and we have to accept the consequences. In the meantime, they will put a signed sticker on the packages to give the packages priority treatment for processing.

You can expect the tracking status updating or a return and refund notification email sent to you within next week. But please kindly be aware that tracking status updating doesn't mean that the package will make the delivery for certain. This is only to speed up the package processing, they will still need to pass through the X-ray scanning.

The Hong Kong Post also promised that they will arrange the returns right away once confirmed there has batteries contained in the package. But according to our monitoring, some packages that containing batteries still get shipped, we will keep in touch with Hong Kong Post daily and arrange the refund as soon as we received the returned packages.

We know this is become a long-overdue issue and we understand that this is frustrating and no one will possibly like any part of this. But we are here to work with you and we truly want to get this issue resolved properly ASAP.

We apologize for the delay and thank you for your understanding.

Get an MVP 2. The others are just fancy VV eGo's. The MVP has features and a HUGE battery.

Get your MVP stateside on sale for about $10 more than FT and save the aggravation. There was a deal posted at VaporJoes and also Varitube with a coupon code of "varitube10" to get it down to $54 or so.

The Varitube deal comes in any color you like.... as long as you like black.

Nah, I paid $104 from one of my favorite vendors. It is essentially the same... I don't remember the extra charge slot covers, but they'll be in the box if they came with my kit. It also came with a HUGE book if I remember correctly :/ I only use it to test the oHm of my newly built coils LOL

I found the books and the My Vapor Record book, the charger to link to your computer for updates, so those are all the same. it looks like the genuine Joyetech to me. I also picked up several 18350 tubes and basic eGo heads for the smaller tubes as well. I like using the 18350 eGo tubes with a CE4 to vape menthol tobacco =]

Above you have the eVic 18650 tube with a flattop eGo/510 head, the eVic head on an 18350 black tube, eGo head on a silver 18350 tube, ego Twist, 1100 mAh eGo, and finally an 650 mAh eGo

I would deff. go with the either of the of the itaste devices. Solid build and performance on both. The x6 is a big step down with no screen, step down not true VV, not VW etc.

Which one of the two depends on intended use.

The MVP is probably the number one most recommended entry level mod out there. Solid as a rock, loaded with features and enough mAh to jump start a Dodge Hemi. It is big however and of course a box form. I love it and carry it a lot but it's size stops me from taking it out of the house some times. For a woman that may be a deal breaker. If it is going to live on the living room coffee table and only make occasional trips out of the house then this would be my choice.

The V3 offer all the same features (except the power out) as the MVP but in a slimmer stick form. This make it more pocket friendly and weighs a lot less so you don't feel it when you are carrying it. I have not used one but I have one on order (as soon as FT finally streightens out a return). You do of course pay a price in the power department at 800mAh.

So, it all depends what you think your wife will use it for the most.

I would recommend the itaste, variable wattage helps your flavor in the juices stay the same when you swap clearomizers. Less hassle for most people.

MVP is simplicity at its finest. You gotta like the box mod form factor though. Nice thing (and a bad thing in some people's world) no replaceable battery... well possible if you good at breaking it open. I however am not.

The Reo. From what I have read the best squonk box out there. People love this thing. Dripping though doesn't do all that for me.

I taste VV simple and easy.. Personally I would go for a Spinner over the Itaste for mahs.. 1300 vs 800.

The X6 doesn't appeal to me. Strange how the have and X8 carto tank on the X6. :)

If you want ease and battery duration and don't mind the box mods/apvs go with the MVP.

I got the SVD.... I really hate charging those batteries. I much prefer charging my spinners in a wall wart.

Adding Joytech is coming out with a new evic type called the emode. It has all those bells a whistle if you like that stuff. The form factor is what is appealing to me the most and the atty system.

The MVP is BIG? o_O Oh my, I thought it was slimmer... Hmmm, I am glad you posted as I've been looking at them and considering. I have several Gripper mods and they are all too large and cumbersome for daily use and taking to work :/ THANKS for responding, Capt.shay!
