It's pretty hard to notice, but there's a "more" type button right when you're close to the end of checkout, that's how you can override and choose something like Singapore, Speedpost, DHL etc.

I clicked on the more button. None of those options are available for my address. I live in a large suburb of Minneapolis. It's not like I live in western Nebraska.

You know what they say about guys with big hands right?

No, I don't. What do they say about guys with big hands? Please explain in great detail!


The end up with pinky fingers that are so busted up they
don't work right any more :)

Yeah, that pinky of yours has definitely seen better days. I didn't even notice till you mentioned it. If you look closely at my pic you'll notice the index is missing the top half inch due to an unfortunate run in with a wood planer.

VAPEMAIL!!

8 days from acceptance to my door. Weird part was it was in HK and then ZERO updates till it was at my local office and out for delivery. I guess it was moving so fast they didn't have time to scan it.

Mostly random stuff like Micro USB cords to charge the MVP, some more EVODS and a handy dandy 450mah stealth puffer.

Not a bad little battery. I got one last month to replace a failing 350.
If you pocket carry, the finish will not last very long. They did the soft finish over a shiny Black Painted surface.:facepalm:
Mine already looks like it has leprosy .

Thanks for the tip. I carry mine in a top shirt pocket with nothing else - so far this works. Very impressed with the battery life and punchy vape from these little fellers. :)

It would get the batteries through. My guess is a lot of the larger resellers may buy that way to expediate delivery. That would be why the markup is so high to recover the DHL/FedEx cost --- well among other things.

I've got one in a basket and the GS-H5 too. Both ugly as a mud fence but one of my pet peeves about evods are they are too small and protank is too heavy. I have the Vapeonly version of this and happy so far but would be better if it used Kanger coils.

Very true. Ugly as heck but the capacity is there.

I've grown to dislike the evods now that i've experienced something better. Look good, but they're small, to tight of a draw for me and they like to leave a ring of fluid around the base everytime I filled them up.

Annnnd I just noticed the 5 day ship date. All I know is I have to find something that uses evod heads cause I have a couple handfuls that aren't getting used.

Apparently they have shut down they're Singapore operations temporarily due to some shady goings-ons there or something. They posted a note about it on the FT forum and someone posted here in the FT subforum thingy.

Not surprised ... their "official" tracking engine has been broken for days... you might get it to work 1 out of 20 tries. I've been checking the "alternative" one Geek posted: Track Shipment(s)

Anyone come across any good Mesh compatible RBA's yet (on fastech)? Not Genisis style but more like Phoenix style. -----
Every RBA out lately is either 2 or three post with no space in between for mesh or the only place to connect the wires are even in height, kinda need holes or screws to be at different levels to use mesh....and a deep (not shallow) well.
I was strictly mesh for about 8 months or so and decided to try out some of the new RBA's.. while they work great, silica just isn't my thing, the taste and for some reason makes me congested a bit.
Not lookin to do any of the 20$+ RBA's either....

I got a ego stuck at HK tracking shows preparing at origin since sept 27th. Is this normal?

Yeah, that's another apparently...Word is they are cracking down on safety of shipments due to some mishaps with bad batteries in shipping, supposedly it's taking longer to inspect them.

The only lithium batteries I have ever actually heard of being a legitimate problem in Flight were those used to Power the actual aircraft. Originally installed to reduce weight.

Guess no one thought about the fact as they heat up they swell. As pressure drops(altitude), they swell. If they are allowed to swell to much........well, grab a fire extinguisher.:shock:
