could you elaborate on why they're bad? I was considering ordering 2 of em

My only guess on the cryptic one's issue is that brass tends to contain some lead. When exposed to acids the surface lead becomes free.

The problem with that thinking is there's not much total lead in those contacts to be a major issue and unless you continually polish them exposing more lead to become free you would only ever see a tiny portion.

But I can't say for sure based on the cryptic post. That's just my guess knowing about the internet claims of brass.

Hey guys I need help. My son has an iPad he uses, he uses it for the learning apps he's autistic. The past day or two the charger has been acting up. Can you guys reccomended a good one? All I need is a regular one that plugs in the wall.

I tried searching "iPad charger" and the results overwhelmed me lol.

Sorry it's not vaping related but I figured you guys could help me.

Thanks walker! I think that connector is different though.

This is the connector that goes to the iPad, it's smaller. I have the newest IPad.

Everything turns up eventually, but there are "dead periods" between transfers where the status is unavailable. This is the usual process:

1) Things are sent to Hong Kong/Singapore
2) Before items arrive, a shipping placement is ordered at HK/Singapore. This is where you get your tracking #, but it won't work yet.
3) Items arrive, and the shipping date is set. Nothing goes out yet, but now your tracking# works.
4) Items reach HK/Singpore post. It stays there until the shipping day for your country.
5) Items in transit to you country. Status will simply be "international bound" until it checks in at the port of entry.
6) Items reach your country. From here, you should track the numbers through your countrys postal service. Your experience here will vary according to your country's protocols.

Would "international letter" be the same as "international bound?" My package has had this status since the 4th. I would assume they are the same, but I don't like assuming. ;)

FastTech turned me into a kid in a candy store! Fixed income meant I couldn't afford to risk trying tanks/clearos; too expensive if I hate them. Now I can try new stuff for less than I have been spending on standard bridgeless attys & cartos! I could not decide what to try first... I was on FT's site for two days almost straight before settling on what to try first! (lmao) For my first purchase, I included two lanyards (being disabled, it is difficult and painful to walk all over the house looking for where I left my PV this time, lol), a cheapie clear drip tip Ioved and lost, and replacement heads to ensure I have hardware to last more than a month even if I only like one of the new ones. (Gotta be prepared!) So, here is my 1st FT order, somewhere between Hong Kong and my home...

== Items ordered ==

EVOD Electronic Cigarettes Round Mouth Atomizer (1.5mL) http://www.fasttech.com/product/1365600

Lanyard Neck Sling with a Ring for Ego-t/Ego-c/Ego-w/Ego-d (45cm) http://www.fasttech.com/product/1292802

^^^ I spend that much for 5 attys and a drip tip!

Next month I will try more new stuffs, unless one of these are awesome; then I will stock up on that AND try one more new toy... :p


(OK, I am loving Tapatalk 4 except for one thing I just discovered: editing what I am typing is a PITA at best, and I cannot copy or cut selected text. Anyone else encounter this?)
