The FastTech Thread For All FastTech Posts

[lisancentraltx]

I got my Sentinel, TVS, and my protanks in 2 days ago =] I am pleased with them although there were some problems... The Sentinel is GORGEOUS but the threads are delicate, so the Protank stays on it. I got the gold protank for the TVS and the threads are not even 510 threads :/ I was able to get an 808/901 to 510 adapter on it, but no vape comes through, so I reported it to see what FT wants to do about it.

I'm ordering another MVP. The convenience just can't be beat. It's no hassle. I'm also ordering my first mechanical and RDA to drip when I'm at home. But with the MVP, the ability to leave the house for a couple days with nothing more than extra juice and a head without worrying about anything else sure is liberating. Even on the 2, the 510 connection is finicky. You have to adjust it occasionally, but it's not a big deal.

It will tap down if needed. Remove the screw, place it on something so there is a gap under the pin, tap the center post with something, check, repeat. It's just pressed into the center insulator and can be adjusted, carefully.

Thanks uber! man that center pin is really tight!! I used a lot of pressure and ended up going almost all the other way, did it again and put it flush again! after 5 tries I finally did it right! now I'm vaping nirvana!

My ST Kick clone won't fit into my K100.
Phooey.
I guess this means I have to buy a new mech and continue to use the fuse for the K100

It fits, you have to screw the thicker outside part off or out of the way so that you have access to just the inside tube, and you should be able to get it in. I use the Sigelei Kick in my K100 all the time (if I'm running a higher ohm coil)


EDIT: You have to use an 18350 or 18500 or similar size ... a full 650 is too long with the kick.

I'm using a smoktech Kick in my K100 with an 18350 battery. It's a tad annoying to adjust because I have to use small needle-nose pliers to remove it, but it works. If fasttech starts to carry the ST kick (or the the sigelei) I'd get another one. I'm back to liking the K100 again now that it's regulated.

Are you using an extension tube on the K100? I can't fit the Sigelei Kick with a 18650 ... only 18350 or 18500 will fit with the Kick in mine.

I caught my mistake and edited already, but you are too quick for me. 18350 is what I'm using.

Submit a product request ticket with a link to it. They don't know what we want unless we tell them.

I thought I read somewhere that they are coming to Fasttech... if they can get those priced low enough it would be a total no brainer.

Ok...it does fit after all..but
It won't drop down in the tube flush...it keeps shifting around...grr
I'm not using my K100 now anyway, I'll fight with the kick later
ETA: I shouldn't try stuff like this until I have been up for a while with a few cups off coffee on board, lol

Once you get it all the way to the end, it will probably be at an angle, just press on the center pin and it will straighten itself out.

Time at HK varies because FT use the cheapest shipping which means their packages only get loaded on a plane where there is space on a plane. That's the price we pay for free shipping.

Also the tracking updates are not always correct, I have had packages arrive when they are showing as at HK.

Did you guys see FastTech added the Xtar VP1 charger today?
I paid $50 bucks for his charger and I dont regret it.
It has a digital display that tells you the status of your charge.
It can charge in 3 different speeds 0.25A, 0.50A, and 1.0A.
Those of you paranoid about charging your batteries you can set it to .50A and its a lot easier on the battery.
Highly recommend this charger, waaaaay better quality than the Nitecore.
