Just saw this add on to Jasmin's post. New Update (10/09/2013) We've notified by Singapore Post that there is no problem to ship e-liquids (for now). And so far, based on statistics collected from returned packages, e-liquids do not appear to cause problems at Hong Kong Post, too. As such, we are still shipping most e-liquids orders via HK/SG post. We'll monitor the situation and make adjustments as necessary.

Sigh. Still not movement. My order is constipated.
Not that anyone should care, but I just wanted to see how my home made avatar looked. (Home made from stolen components, of course)

Not smoke. Vape!
Like I said, I stole the clipart, or more correctly, liberated it from another image. Let's see if my mad GIMP skills can fix it.
Me, me ~ I care!!
I will send some exlax to HK post for your pkg and for CommaHolly's too!!
I am so relieved that mine has an update I just can't stand it.
I am sure yours will soon join mine!
and
I like your avi!
Nice job.

They are saying no problem with liquids right now but why not split up your order and put the liquids and least essentials in one order in case they detain it. Remember, shipping is free so multi-orders are no problem.
I will join the missing shipment for over a month club now. For some reason there was no tracking number either. Good thing it was just one pair of batteries.
Note to self, don't make the same mistake twice... order batteries from US vendors for the foreseeable future. Bummer.

I've had 2 orders make it to me since the missing batteries were shipped. It's not like I'll stop ordering from FastTech, but I'll miss the battery selection and prices.
Well now that the Panny CHs are pretty much perma gone I have no idea which of the rest of them are considered safe for mech or my vamo. SO I sort of just don't order batterys there anymore. LOL
Yep I am boggled when it comes to batterys so I now just get AW IMRs from stateside vendors.
I have gotten all the batteries and juice I've ordered so far. Got some enroute now hope it makes it this time.
I saw that that at fasttech, but thanks for replying anyway.
Thank you, - I was going to split, but just decided to use the slower Singapore Post. I'll let everyone know how it goes. I'll start every future post with Singapore Post - to aid ppl that may try using the search function on the thread.
Thanks again.
I haven't seen the "nail test" (puncture) done on the other Panasonic batteries, and since Panasonic won't say exactly what's in their batteries a puncture or short out test would have to be done to say for sure which ones vent (like IMR) and which explode. According to RTD which sells good batteries and genuine AW's, they call all the Panasonic batteries "hybrid". I've been using NCR18650PD Panasonic in my mechanical mods for almost 2 months, but I don't get anywhere near the 10 amp max continuous current they are rated for. If I had a short I might find out if they explode or vent, I'm being as careful as I can so far. I haven't read about exploding Panasonic batteries yet, although I have heard of a grey CGR18650CH venting in some guy's backpack because he didn't store it in a case... it was loose.
Not really important info for this thread, unless you want to take the gamble on ordering batteries from FastTech. The CGR18650CH does still exist here is the US, but they're about 50% more $.
I still don't understand the battery shipment issues. If we can't get them, how are all the US vendors getting theirs?

This all came about as I understand it when some batterys exploded in a cargo plane killing the pilot and copilot.
SO good to hear about the PDs. I have been SOOOOOOOOO tempted by the higher mah of those. As you and I have discussed before I never vape anything below a 1.5 ohm coil so 10 AMp works pretty well for me.
BTW the AGA - T2s are still doing great for me ty so much for your help with them!
Can someone tell me what is the best shipping option for Fasttech? I'm about to place an order but there's 3 free shipping options. There are no batteries or liquid in my order. There's registered air mail, usps, and registered airmal via Singapore post... which one do I pick? The USPS one is listed with the least time... must be some kind of trick question right? Anyone would obviously want the fastest option...
