Except the point where there aren't any reviews of a device in question elsewhere, which was precisely the reason I took it out of my cart at the last second.

Not an unwise move at this time. Just saying there may well be a legitimate reason for the failure. Always err on the side of caution but never create a panic where reason may not exist.
Always pay close attention to recalls, etc.:)

ETA - After further Review, fasttech forums have information, these seem to have rather short life spans. Mostly due to switch failing(open-Dead) Looks like a STD. ohm device for longevity. Not worth investing if that is the case.
Probably small wiring internal to the switch design.

Today's VAPEMAIL!

Left to right:

- Hangsen Vitamin-A https://www.fasttech.com/p/1386710 Meh, vapable but not a strong flav at all really
- Dekang Mango https://www.fasttech.com/p/1190306 *an occasional vape for me, muted but tastes great)*
- Hangsen Juicy Peach https://www.fasttech.com/p/1385801 Winner for sure, if you like Dekang Mango you will love this
- Liqua Apple https://www.fasttech.com/p/1297707 *haven't tried yet*
- Liqua Grape https://www.fasttech.com/p/1297701 *haven't tried yet*
- Liqua Energy Drink https://www.fasttech.com/p/1297107 *haven't tried yet*
- Hangsen 555 https://www.fasttech.com/p/1436710 *haven't tried yet*
- Liqua American Blend https://www.fasttech.com/p/1297002 *Awesome ADV*
- Liqua Traditional Tobacco https://www.fasttech.com/p/1297001 *Super awesome ADV*
- Liqua Bright Tobacco https://www.fasttech.com/p/1297101 *haven't tried yet*

As usual, the Dekang bottles leaked but that Mango flav. is worth it. They are not packaging each bottle individually with bubble wrap and tons of tape. This contained the leaking inside the single packs. The lids were both loose too.

Ok so far I've loaded the Juice Peach and yea, it is pretty good. I like it as well as the Dekang Mango.
Then, I loaded up the Vitamin-A flavor in an iclear and well... My hands curled up within 5 minutes and I can no longer grip small items. I'm on crutches now and may have to have my legs amputated because of rampant arthritis that has developed.
Seriously though, it's an odd taste and I wish like heck I could explain it. It's not strong at all, and it doesn't have a bad taste to it. I've never chewed up a vitamin A tablet so I don't know if that's what it tastes like or not. It does have a pleasant throat hit though. Having said that, I don't think I'll buy it again. If it were the only juice I had, I wouldn't have any problems using it, but there are just too many other flavors that I really like.

Well, at least it wasn't a tank cracker.

Let us know if you start forming a humpback or developing a huge goiter. That would be a deal breaker for me.

Vitamins in ejuice.. not sure if that's a good idea, a horrible idea, or a pointless idea. Can vitamins get safely absorbed through the mouth and/or lungs? I have no idea. Some vitamins can cause a lot of damage at a high dosage. I personally wouldn't risk vaping a juice with any vitamins or drugs unless it's been studied first. I'm guessing the ones sold at FT are a gimmick, or maybe just a type of flavoring; I hope that's the case anyways.

Everybody relax, geez...
It's not Fasttech. The Chinese have been making "Vitamin X" flavors for e-liquids for as long as they have been in the business. FastTach doesn't make e-liquids anymore than they make Ego batteries, they just sell the stuff.
I've always seen all those weird flavors that the Chinese make and thought it would be a gas to try one of them.

Here, let me start a REAL war... EHEM.

Guys,
I'm gonna vape Vitamin G liquid on a 0.1ohm quad-coil using unprotected and stacked Ultra-Fire 18650's that I got off ebay for 3 dollars per dozen. I'm using them in my 3 dollar chrome-plated poisonous brass Chi clone mech mod that has no safety button lock on it and no vent holes.
Do you think it's safe to do this?

Let me think, did you miss anything... hmmm ... nope, that's pretty good. ;-)

Why not? You might want some eye protection though.

Here, I can one-up it... and this may just get me banned no matter how thick the sarcasm is...

Guys,

I'm charging them in a 99 cent charger that I got from dollar general on my PC USB port. I'm using them in my 3 dollar chrome-plated poisonous brass Chi clone mech mod that has no safety button lock on it and no vent holes. I'm using this because the Provari is a complete waste of money and I would never buy one.

You won't need a multimeter if you get the Vamo, which will check the resistance of your coil for you.
I know, but I really don't have all that much money to spare for the moment :/ I was thinking of just getting the iTaste VV for 24 dollars. That would have an ohm reader on it. I might get the vamo in a month or two though :vapor:

Thanks for the reply :)

There are vitamins sold to take sublingually. The mouth is the beginning of the digestive tract.
But of course vitamins don't have to do anything (by US standards) just contain the vitamin it claims to have.

I have my doubts if Coenzyme Q10 means it's a flavor they called that. It has to be the supplement. Whether that supplement does you any good in your lungs I don't know but any of it you ingest otherwise (coating on the inside of the mouth and then swallowed) should be no different than taking it.

Looking at the reviews of the mech mods (excluding K100s) I think the TVS seems to have the least issues.
I was looking at the Private V2 but decided against it.
I have been lusting after the TVS for a while....I'll just stay the course and get that one.
Plus they have a driptip (new today) that would go really good with it - I have this exact one in stainless

This is true. I wonder if the juices do contain the vitamins (or suppliment in the case of CoQ10) that it's sold as and if they do, have they been tested to be absorbed in a sufficient quantity to make it worthwhile. CoQ10 is a fairly expensive chemical, and is often sold in forms that actually don't get absorbed by the body enough to actually do anything, like in lotions. "Contains CoQ10" has been a great marketing gimmick so boost sales.
