I got my ego starter kit from Vapeland. Very nice people to deal with and great customer service even at crazy times of night!

lemental my mini comes in at 1.9 ohms I don't have to push down very much at all The minis don't have the same long stiff spring loaded anode as do the 3.5ml Novas so they are much easier to push in. I think I may hold onto the novas and just recoil them as they're such a good price. No way I'm keeping the 3.5ml Novas though. The amount of force needed to get it low enough to catch the thread on the Vamo is uncomfortable. |

I've just had a look at both the 3.5ml and 2.5ml and the springing centre post sticks out a fair bit. This means a fair bit of pressure is needed before they catch the threads of the Vamo. Someone on the Fasttech discussion for the 3.5ml mentioned that the fact that it sticks out a lot means it's putting too much pressure on the Vamo and will push the centre of it's connection down, ruining it. Can anyone confirm whether this could possibly happen? The centre pin is spring loaded, I have one and it is great no connection problems and no excessive pressure on my evic I need to push down quite hard on the Novas before they start to catch the thread on the Vamo. The spring loaded anode is longer than the one pictured on Fasttech and it's also quite stiff. Just to rub salt into the wounds, I've just measured the resistance on my three minis: 2.6?, 3.3?, 4.4?  |

My three 3.5ml Novas and three minis arrived today, all with the centre spring. Will test them out over the next few days. Dave, what was the issue you had with yours? I think dave had the same trouble as the rest of us who bought Novas, you can't draw any air through 'em. I think it was a bad batch so hopefully your's will be okay. Thanks Will update in a day or three when I've had the chance to test them. Was it just a problem with the 3.5ml Novas or was it affecting the minis too? |

Great price. I don't know what these are like but the three CE6 clearos I had from there all had a horrible rubbery taste even after sterilizing. A pack of 7 CE6s arrived this morning. I've only tested four of them so far, and they're all reading between 5 and 6 ohms. Blimey, that'll need cranking up some serious voltage to get good vapour! Saving grace is that Fasttech customer support is decent so although some products can end up in wasting our time and juice, we don't end up out of pocket as with a lot of Chinese vendors. |

Just thought I'd update......again!! Now getting good flavour with the X8 and LR boge @ 7.5W. Feels a lot cleaner vape than the CE5 too and the lack of dry hits is a massive bonus!! Only problem is that I can't put the damn thing down!! |

This and the battery pill case make a nice combo for travelling.
