Weirdly enough, the passthrough worked on my computer but not on the wall adapter I tried.


I had the same thing happen shannan. What I worked out was that the pass through needs close to 2 A to run and the charger puts out either .5 or 1 A. You risk doing some seriouse damage running it off of your computer. I am using a power usb that puts out over 2 A or you will need to get a usb wall wart that puts out over 2A.

For personal reasons.

I just tried it to see if it WOULD work since the 4A charger wasn't working. I never run any battery from my computer. I've heard too many horror stories of things burning, and I don't want them close to my face. Maybe I'm vain...

I ordered a 2.6 A wall wart. With a 30' extension cord plugged in at the middle of the house, it will kind of be like the central vac....in reverse :vapor:

Moving it forward - added some more stuff in fact all of the stuff i want buy from them:laugh:

its a fantastic place to buy vape stuff especially for newbies you can save tons of money.

but the search on their site is the bad.

here are some products and options you have in the link which i think have best price and quality IMO

Great post. I know you originally started this as a separate thread, but it looks like the Mods merged it with this one. That's unfortunate, because now it's just going to get lost in the shuffle and nobody will be able to find it.

Maybe you could PM the OP of this thread and see if he'll provide a link to your post? That link would always be available in the first post of the thread and you could update your post as needed.

So bought 3 of the iCLear 30's https://www.fasttech.com/products/1411/10004594/1383901 went to buy the iClear 16's and they are out of stock. So i picked up some Mango juice, love the way it tastes https://www.fasttech.com/products/1190306 So I look around and see this https://www.fasttech.com/products/1411/10004594/1383905 Hmmmm comes with 5 iclear 16's, hell for $25 bucks i get a new vapor. HA! :smokie: This will compliment the evic that i use and may just use this for work now. The madness needs to stop. I need a Intervention.

They need a Wiki Community Board in these threads that we can update. Now that would be sweet if we can do that.

I just bought the VV/VW 3.0 for the same reason. And it'll be my first VW. I figured it would be a user-friendly way to test the waters. Plus, the iTaste batteries are great quality. I love the ohm checker.

Well, one of the two Evods I ordered from them have started leaking. Keep in mind, I ONLY use tobaccos in these. I've been hooked on my Shade DIY tobacco for over a Month, and its been my ADV for that long. I do keep a Viva Nova or another tank for fruits and such. Anyhow, I received these 2 Evods middle of June. I'll use one tank for about three days, wash it out and fill up the other tank. It started leaking slowly around the clear window part. At first I thought I must have had juice on my hands after a refill...but as the hours wore on, I kept having to wipe juice off the outside. After I finished that tank, I washed it good and after it dried, looked inside..there are NO cracks or anything...its just like its seeping out.

On a brighter note...FT FINALLY decided to send me my SS Vamo that they left out of my last order. It was just accepted by HK mail yesterday...so should have it in about 6 days. So we shall see!

From now on when I order from them...anything over 15 bucks will be ordered by itself. That way it will be the only thing in that package..so hopefully they won't forget it and I have to go through this all over again.

I think many may have this happening due to cracks they can't see, or haven't noticed. The plastic is thin, and I cracked one just by holding it wrong while trying to unscrew the base.

So be careful filling, I suggest holding the tip only when trying to unscrew the base. Knurling would solve this issue, and I can't believe Kanger/Clone maker as well haven't realized this and revised the design

Filled the evod with eliquid, not a tank cracker. Set it aside to try another. Came back to the evod, and it's broken.

I had my pretty yellow one do that. I think that happens when you refill them. The coil comes loose and when you tighten it back up it breaks loose at the top. I always check mine now to make sure the coil is tight before putting on the base. So far never have had another one break.

It was tight. I make sure they're on there right because bottom coils leak easily, so I make sure everything is tight.
To be fair, I've had genuine Kangers make the same clean break in the same spot, like it's a seal or glue issue. Not sure though. I'm not worried about it. I'll try again in the near future.

Yay! My stuff got shipped! My green K100 on the way along with my K100/101! Got a UCan, the Trustfire batteries (poo! They will be sidelined) and a couple of spare battery cases! Occasionally stalking my tracking with no avail. I also ordered an Emjoi hair yanker outer, robo waxer whatchamacallit from Amazon to painfully pass the time.
