I been looking at R80 folding vapor pipes. They look and sound like something I would like to own, but only see for sale in China. Does any of this forum vendors sell them here in the USA?

I found this one on fasttech and there's a few reviews on it. Seems like it was originally sold by a UK e cig company called Sparks but I don't see them for sale on their website. I sent them an email asking about it. I'll let you know if they reply.

Thanks for your help JediTT with my quest. I've read several reviews, but can't find any for sale here in the USA. And I would rather buy from one of the VU venders.

I also see it at Fasttech, but I'm reading nothing buy bad reviews about fasttech, would not trust them enough to deal with them.

Thanks Larbax, looks like a trustworthy vender and they have what I'm looking for , but about $10 higher in price than the other places and the two batteries, charger and atomizer are sold separately. I'll keep on looking.
 
BTW, I bought mine from Fasttech. Works well for what it is, hits better than I expected.
I've never had a problem with Fasttech, ordered may items from them. The only downside is the long shipping time.

Is the price in UK pounds.? What is the USD price?
"Complete kit with UK adjustable charger" Is it sold with a charger that will work in America?
The one I've been looking at indicates that I can use most tanks (smoktech ARO V2) and use the decorative sleeve that surrounds the tank.
Will there be a problem importing this item into the USA? About how long and what is the expected shipping cost?

Idk all that. You'd have to email the guys there and ask about shipping to your location. I've never bought ecig stuff from UK. Currency converter says price would be about $80 USD.

I think as myself as being thrifty, my friends tell me I'm cheep. I know I'm saving a lot by not smoking but I do keep several friends in juice at no cost and my girlfriend in batteries(and she breaks a lot of them and tanks), juice, coils. $80 is too much for something site unseen. I do thank you for your assistance to my quest.

Update: All good things come to those that wait.
I just got a R-80 in my mail box today, from MyFreedomSmokes
https://www.myfreedomsmokes.com/clearance/r80-folding-telescoping-mechanical-mod-kit.html.
I ordered it Monday when they were having a free shipping event.
$20 and free shipping
Includes:
  • 1 x R80 Mod Device
  • 1 x 18650 Battery
  • 1 x 18350 Battery
  • 1 x Cartomizer (small mini ce-4 with matching cover)
  • I'm using one of my Smoketech glass tanks, can't use the colored cover but works good.
  • 1 x Battery Charger ( no manual)
  • 1 x Safety Fuse (when in place the fire button is always on)
  • 1 x Manual (fun to read but not informative)
Even with the 18650 battery the whole thing is only 3 1/2 inchs tall. Fits in my pocket, and don't think I will have a problem with it breaking like the stick batteries that have broken when I sit down with one in my pocket.

That's a pretty crazy deal you got there. Looks like they are out of stock now and since it was a clearance item I'm assuming that won't change. You lucked out.

During this week I kept checking and each day they added one. Then the next time I looked they were out of stock. and each day they had one of a different color.

Been using it every day and like it. I know to each his own but why is this type of unit not more popular? It folds up and fits in my pocket. I've broken several stick batteries, putting them in my pocket and then siting down. Long mods are just too big to even go into a pocket and I'm not going to wear a unit on a rope around my neck. The sleeve that covers the tank is only good if your tank is 11mm, but the unit works just fine without the sleeve with my Smoktech ARO V2. It has 510 and ego threads, so just about any tank would work, but when I used my Nautilus mini I was unable to fold it all the way up. I've already dropped it twice, once from 15 feet ,down to a hard service floor and no damage done.
The instruction manual was pretty much useless. Like most that are written in Chinese and translated into English. It didn't say anything about the fuse, and if you put the fuse in wrong the unit will fire without pushing the fire button. I still prefer my iStick with Nautilus mini when I'm sitting here at my desk, but when I go down to my shop or go shopping I put the R80 in my pocket and take it.
Hell-0, Have a nice day. (I can say that here, this is not ECF)
