I see Vape-Forward are releasing their new line of VapourFlasks on......................... the 25th of December . Really doesn't seem like a good business move to me , I would have tried to move heaven and earth to have them out in time for Christmas shopping .

Just looking at the vivi nova tanks online and I came across one with no wicks in it. Does anyone know what coils that one takes ? Kind of hoping it takes the same coils as the aspire k1 or aspire maxi ?

If it's the one in the attachment, it takes the same coils as the k1/maxi

Any of you used a Triton 2? Is it as versatile as they claim?

I have a Triton 2 with the RTA pack as well, I really like it, I can build my own and there's now an excellent array of pre-built coils, Kanthal Claptons, Ni Claptons for TC, as well as normal coils of various metals.

To check the status of your 3 batteries by percentages...

Turn off RX200,hold all 3 buttons down for 20 seconds & the display will show the 3 batteries with their percentages of charge left.

Anyone know how long Gearbest EU warehouse orders take to arrive? They shipped my Nebox on Monday.

The only order I made from the EU warehouse arrived 4 days after I got the shipped email. Was back around September. I have a phone on the way from the EU warehouse for my wife, it hasn't shipped yet but I'll update when it does. Thinking of getting a bluetooth car stereo on there too! They have none in the EU warehouse though.

I had to wait two weeks around the beginning of December.

Other times, 6/7 days. I wish they would stock more there.

Don't forget that you may still be liable for customs duty on purchases from Gearbest EU.

Really? They advertise it as not having to worry about customs.

Its a big mystery too where in the EU the warehouse is. My stuff normally only has An Post stickers.

So whether bulk boxes of many orders are sent to each country, to then be post labelled and forwarded I'm not sure. Similar to amazon agreement with an post.

Aren't items from the eu exempt from import duty?

The EU warehouses don't pay import duty on the products that they have in their warehouses that they bring in from China. The money owed is then passed on to the purchaser.

If you have noticed some parcels arriving from Gearbest and Fasttech with yellow stickers, this is customs stating that the product is actually originating from outside the EU.

That is basically it. They bulk ship to the EU to make it look like it's originating from here but it isn't. It's just relabelled and reshipped to the purchaser. The likes of Swiss Post or Sweden Post are prime examples.

I've never had a yellow sticker on the ones from the 'EU warehouse' though. Only from China.

I normally do small split orders to keep it under 22e when I order from China if I can, but do 'full' orders from EU.

I won't be too impressed if I get a bill on an EU order. China, fair enough.

There is some new kanger stuff coming out, with top fill tanks and TC mods. They user the newer cylindrical coils. I'll wait until I see some reviews first.

Trond

I had 7 successful orders from Fasttech and 3 from Gearbest's EU Warehouse and never had any customs issues. I wouldn't worry about it....

bd2012

Would I be safe in assuming that ordering from gearbests Chinese site is similar to fasttech, ie forget about your order until it arrives and surprises you! Order shipped 10 Dec. Still nothing.....

Ionised

No duty on my Nebox

EGriff

I've never been charged any duty on eCig stuff, had a fair few Chinese orders come in over 22€ too.
