Would you not be easier just getting a small bottle of nic base from a UK supplier to tide you over until the group buy arrives Dont really need to as I have about 120ml of various brews kicking about  It was more of a query as I wanted to test my DIY magnetic stirrer out. In that case it might be worth a try  .... like Mandy said T juice and a few others come pre mixed and don't need a lot of steeping  Would be interesting to see the results if you do try it ... in fact you have got me thinking about giving it a blast myself the next time the kit is out  |

Well Ive run out of nic but a kilo has been ordered from the group buy which should be landing late November, Im wondering rather than waste these steeping weeks would it be worth while doing some mixes with a longish steep time without the nic and then just adding it when it turns up? Would this lower the overall steep time on say VC? Would you not be easier just getting a small bottle of nic base from a UK supplier to tide you over until the group buy arrives |

Looks like it's not Fastechs fault after all .... shipping company has ballsed up big time and Fastech have hundreds of parcels that they don't know where they are but are going to refund all the ones that don't turn up. Got this earlier today so looks like no one should loose out Dear *******, RE: Your FastTech order A************ tracking number RT*********HK On Wednesday morning Hong Kong Time, FastTech promised in the FastTech forums that we will provide a refund in 2 days if your package continues to be untrackable at Hong Kong Post. As promised, we're commencing refunds and we are e-mailing you to confirm that you are entitled to a refund of $74.16 . Important Refund Process Notice -------------------------- Please note that there are quite a bit of refunds to be done. We are aiming to get everything done on or before this Saturday Hong Kong Time, however, our internal deadline is that the last refund is sent no later than Monday. If you do not receive a refund by Monday, please reply to this e-mail and let us know. Your honesty will not go unrewarded ------------------------------ Our shipper screwed up by re-sending approximated a few hundred packages without notifying us the new tracking numbers. As a result, we are not aware of their delivery status and we did not not any package returned. If you have received your package, please mark your order as delivered. Your honesty will not go unrewarded (we'll announce something soon). On the other hand, if you have not received your package, just stay put and you will be refunded.

Mixed some a couple of days ago @15% and went to try it last night Looked a really dodgy colour and TBH didn't smell much better but tried it anyway and all I can say is mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm have got through 2 iClear 16's of it so far Another batch later tonight me thinks  Yep i do mine at 15%, don't think i would try 20% and it's yummy  Did a batch of Red Astaire @15% at the same time ..... that smells lush but tasted a bit rough... will have put it away for a week or two to steep |

Hi I suddenly disappeared - I'm so, so, so, so sorry to be so rude. I had to rush off to deal with a family crisis eighty miles away But now I'm back to say a thousand thanks for all the help and suggestions especially freefrom who sent me a replacement tube. What an ace guy. Thanks freefrom. I'm now enjoying my wobbly top again. Liz YVW liz .... I'm glad to hear that you got your iclear up and running again .... I have always been a firm believer in karma .. what goes around, comes around ... I would hope that if I needed a part and someone had one going spare that they would help me out. Totally agree mate ... It's that kind of helpful attitude that makes this such a great forum to be part off as many members are happy to go that extra mile to help. I have been a member of many different types of forums over the years and left them all for the same reason .... Because they ended up full of know it all cleaky windup merchants that took great pleasure in belittling others that asked what they considered stupid questions. We are all here to learn in some shape or form and everyone starts at bottom at some point so it's obvious that you will keep getting the same "stupid" questions .... the difference is most of us can answer them now because we never got slated in the early days when it was us asking them. To me this is what a forum is all about "Steps off soap box" |

On a side note when charging the light stays green and when it is charged it will go off
plus on occation they go a bit loopy when the puff counter hits 999 if it happens just press the power button 3 times to switch it off and another 3 to put it back on and it resets it back to zero

Have an eliquid that's as high a VG content as possible Ginge . . . then go like the clappers chugging away like a pipe smoker, without taking it down. I've just tried it.  If you inhale you will generate less vapour ....I agree with Perps .. high VG juice or better still straight VG up the wattage and chug away invite a few vaping friends and you will fill the room in no time |

As far as I can see all the Chinese supplier that use Hong Kong post are having problems .. I ordered gear from Health Cabin before my last 3 Fasttach orders but the only one that hasn't arrived is the Health Cabin one as Greendollar say's seen it happen every time they have a decent holiday .... If you are not prepared to wait between 3 and 6 weeks for cut price vaping kit I don't think buying from abroad is for you TBH ANOTHER SELF APPOINTED 'ADVISER' Completely missing the point of the original post, if read at all (clue is in the banner)TBH. One more time just for you.... FT caused this mess by not only ignoring the rules, but trying to sneak items through security. Dishonest ? Simply after the lucre ? Wrapping loose lithium cells in tinfoil, genius idea that ! Understandably resulting in HKP rejecting all packages from FT until they complied. And FYI, since the National Day I have placed & received an order from HK containing two electrical item's with batteries installed, SEVEN wk day's to my door ! I have never had to wait more than 14 wk day's from China... till now ! Suppose it could be worse ... I could be an obnoxious agumentative twat that has a smart ass answer for everyone that answered me. It costs nothing to be civil RANT OVER |

I think there has been a backlog due to the recent holiday , as has been said numerous times you'll need a little patience if ordering from China , especially if you're using the free shipping option . National Hol & other firms are OK. As I said, "Tracked" also registered so not free option. I don't think you read the post, sorry if I went on a bit, but I thought I was getting my point across. Obviously not ! Delay caused by FT NOT adhering to the rules. Duh ! What other Chinese firms that use use the cheapskate postage option are unafected by the back log? Your order may be Tracked but it is tracked using the cheapo postage .. so it was still the free option unless you paid DHL As far as I can see all the Chinese supplier that use Hong Kong post are having problems .. I ordered gear from Health Cabin before my last 3 Fasttach orders but the only one that hasn't arrived is the Health Cabin one as Greendollar say's seen it happen every time they have a decent holiday .... If you are not prepared to wait between 3 and 6 weeks for cut price vaping kit I don't think buying from abroad is for you TBH |
