I am now living in the US, but will be moving back to the Philippines at the end of the month.
Got a question for vapers living in the Philippines ..... As you may know, many of the ECF members here living in the US purchase vaping items from companies like FastTech in Hong Kong due to the free (but slow) shipping, and pretty cheap prices on Chinese made vape items.
How about the Philippines ... Is it as easy to purchase on-line from companies like FastTech and have it delivered to your residence as it is here in the US?
Should be even faster delivery to the Philippines than here in the US since the Philippines is so much closer to Hong Kong than the US is.
I recently bought the Forge v2 by MCV Philippines and really love it. It's the copper version and looks great on my Kingpin. I also bought the MCV Philippines Elite drip tip to go on it. It's actually 2 tips in one(a copper and brass that can be stacked). Anyway, it won't fit on my Forge 2 because the post screws are too tall. The tip is a wide bore, and the 510 adapter that came with the RDA is shorter and doesn't make contact with the screws.
When I take the PH screws out, the Elite drip tip fits fine. I figured I would just add some of my extra Allen Hex grub screws(which I put on all my RDAs if possible), but the screws in the MCV Philippines RDAs are one size smaller than most RDA post screws. I believe they are size 3 (#46 / 3-56). I'm guessing they are Fine coarse.
Does anyone know a site that sells screws like this? I've tried searching Google, but didn't really find anything relevant.
Thanks

I am now in the US and I am going back to the Philippines for about a year.
I have a couple of VW box mods and a mech. tube mod along with 3 or 4 various atomizers. I also have a bunch of 18650 and 18500 batteries along with a couple of those skinny EGO style Twist batteries.
Since I make my own juice, I have some large bottles of VG and some 60mg Nic unflavored PG base, along with some bottles of flavorings.
I am thinking that everything I have goes into the checked bags except for the batteries which go in carry-on luggage ... does this sound right to you?
One thing else ... If I have a small EGO Twist battery with a small Kanger Aerotank Mini on top of it (for vaping at the airport once I get into Hong Kong), do you think I would have any problem with airport security if I put that in the TSA tray along with my other carry-on junk that's in my pocket before going though the metal detector? ... The Aerotank Mini in my pocket would have a little juice in it.
Thanks,
I was sort of counting on them for odds and ends once the FDA rules kick in in May, or if there are laws passed between now and then.... but it looks like they will be shut down:
China Effectively Bans Online Sales of E-Cigarettes
China Bans Online Sales of E-Cigarettes
I have several fasttech and several vaporl orders that have not shipped yet too.
EDIT: Although the article does say "“There is no law and regulation in China that forbids the online sale of e-cigarette yet,” said Ou Junbiao, head of the Electronic Cigarette Industry Committee of China. "
EDIT #2: vaporl does have a US warehouse too though, although oddly enough the shipping is cheaper from Hong Kong.
So I just placed an order for some vape gear on Gear Beast. Been eye balling their site for a few weeks now.... kinda seems like the new fasttech in a way. I've ordered from fasttech many times. Their shipping was actually quite fast when they first started selling vape gear, but that went down hill quick as they got more popular.
So I'm wondering what kinda time line I'm looking at for a west coast USD delivery of my purchase. I figured you guys could help me out as I'm assuming a few people seeing this post will have ordered from them before.
Hello everyone,
I'm currently living in Japan and feel like I missed the train on what batteries people are buying now since I can't find VTCs anymore.
I'll be moving back to the states soon, but I thought I'd ask anyways. I have yet to go to a vape shop and I'm a little skeptical because I've heard the crowd is weird in the vaping community. BUT, who am I to judge anyone.
I appreciate any help.
i want to buy a new battery but i'm living in korea.
so i decided don't purchase blu battery because it process is rather complicate ,
even i don't want to suffer it again.
anyway fortunately, i found few 510 mini battery on korea ecig webshop.
here is my question
if i buy a new battery then it could be charged in the pack?(charge seat for blu battery)
This video does a very good job of briefing us on what we need to know about the India ban. 42 million vapers (compared to about 10 million in the US) have been huge customers for the same Chinese products we buy. This hurts those companies and will effect us.
I'm tired of shopping, getting slow shipping and getting broken items from Fasttech. Where else can I find great deals like they have? Anyone know of a site like them?
I've gotten some great gear from them but I need to find a faster site.
Hi everyone. I ordered a vape (Voopoo Drag X Professional) that's on back order from Hong Kong to replace my problematic Uwell mod and I think I might need to go with disposables in the meantime until it gets here. I don't know anything about disposables. Can anyone make recommendations? Thanks.
