    Best wire cutters ?

    Yeah I don’t doubt for a second that Kipex are great, and trust me I like expensive tools, but in my post I specifically said that if you are just cutting coil wire, then you don’t need anything special. Coil wire, even stainless is actually easy to cut at the AWG we all use on coils. The...

    BLCK Vapour DIY E Liquid Supplies - Retailer Reviews

    Saw this thread by chance. Just want to take the opportunity to say two things about BLCK. 1. They've completely earned my loyalty as a shopper, they're just a seriously great store. I've been trying to spread my spend around to support as many stores as possible, but they just seem to be the...

    Question: International Shipping Customs Delays

    My Fedex order arrived this morning, so the call possibly helped. DHL Also arrived, so for the time being DHL is definitely the better option.

    Question: International Shipping Customs Delays

    Standard Toll Free number 08000 33339 then option 0, option 1, option 3. Hold for around 8-10 minutes. You enter your tracking number at option 3. They were offline for 2-3 days at one point, but they did pick up today. Honestly, from the way this poor call centre agent sounded today, I would...

    Question: International Shipping Customs Delays

    So I called Fedex today and explained I had a package fly through customs with DHL. Her claim was that customs does not have enough people to unpack their containers and that Fedex is currently negotiating to hire temporary workers to do this, but that these workers need to do a Covid test...

    Question: International Shipping Customs Delays

    So DHL is far slicker, far, far slicker. My package is already through customs. Tip: I got hold of the guys at KHWmods, and they labelled the package not as vape, vaping, e-cigarette. I think it might have been charger components or electronic parts.

    Question: International Shipping Customs Delays

    Thanks for the info. Well I guess it’s just sit tight and wait. I have a DHL order inbound as well, will see what happens.

    Question: International Shipping Customs Delays

    Hi, I've had a mod sitting in customs for 25 days. Fedex is claiming it's pandemic related delays. Just want to check if anyone else is having issues? They did screw up with submitting my importers code, which they have now done. I normally order a lot internationally every month, but this is...

    What do you miss most about your local vapeshop?

    I miss my local Vape store, I don't really hang out there but they're great for advice, but honestly post lockdown I am going to spread my purchases to as many places as makes sense, In order to support the smaller players. I have found some super star vape stores online in this period, I think...

    Nitecore charger repair

    Caps in an amp go as long as 16 years, but those are generally sized properly, so operating inside their temp and voltage range. I've pulled caps out of 30 year old amps that are still fine, and still measure in spec. At some point after the lifespan of a cap you'll get voltage drift (So the...

    Nitecore charger repair

    Caps shouldn't go that fast, if it happens again maybe try a 1000uf in the same package size, but a higher voltage limit, so like 50V as opposed to 16V. That will ultimately mean the cap is under very low stress.

    Anyone ordered from 3fvape?

    That’s cool. I ship a ton of diy audio stuff from overseas using MyUS and AramexGlobalShopper boxes, I haven’t ordered anything since lock down started for fear of it getting stuck in customs. SAPO is basically for people who are into a kind of one way Secret Santa thing with SAPO employees...
