Guys, the status of my Fasttech shipment (Singapore Registered Mail) says: Arrived at overseas (Country code: MY) this morning.

How long will it take to reach me in KL?

One more question, I'm looking to buy a good charger for my batteries. Is the Nitecore better or the Xtar? Nitecore seems more fanciful with the digital screen but I heard Xtar seems to be more reliable?

Thank you.

Xtar charges better (better charging = better life of batteries), Nitecore is cheaper. Nitecore also does normal rechargeable AA batteries, Xtar does not. Xtar chargers often come with selectable charging currents (from 0.25a to 1a - faster charging of high cap batteries), Nitecore does not.

There's the Xtar VP1/2 also you know, if you want fanciful displays, but they're blardy expensive. On the other hand, Xtar also has the tiny winy MC1/2 USB powered mini chargers (that you can use with laptops, powerbanks and USB car chargers), which I have a few of for travel / emergency purposes.

Other than that it's pretty much a toss up between cost and quality. Personally I think the Nitecore i4 is good enough to start with, especially when it does 4 bays for cheap and doesn't mangle your batteries (too much). Then supplement with an Xtar MC2 or two for travelling (they're cheap too).

The cheapo TrustFires work well enough too... until they blow up - which is rare but CAN happen considering the TFs DON'T stop charging after your batteries are full (which can lead to overloading and boom). But if you take your batteries out when they're full, the cheapo TFs should do just fine.

But considering most local sellers are selling the Trustfires for 50% the price of the MC2s, they're just not worth it really. While the MC2 charges a bit slower (a bit less then 0.5a), they're A LOT safer.

Very interested in the Xtar VP1/2. Any idea if I can get them in Malaysia, and if they have a similar 4-bay charger?

There you go. I'm using the WP2II v2 with 2 years warranty. IF you're near you can go ask them about it for more technical stuff and comparison. the uncle there is a pretty nice guy.

Yeah, that's where I'd recommend myself. I get most of my chargers (and other stuff) from that shop. They have a full selection of AW batteries too, even some batteries from other brands, but always reputable ones.

IINM, the VP series only come in 2-bay versions. The WP4 (and 6) is available if you want more bays though.

Duh, 0mg with throat hit? You better go for check up. I gave my friend who never vape / smoke before, can vape 0mg without choking. Lol.

TheJuiceMachine have a lot of local ejuice in stock, try to check them out.

Could be that you're using a high pg juice? Higher pv tends to give a harsher throat hit, higher vg tend to give a dry throat.
