I’ll check it out, thanks bro.
But we got a DHL agent and a UPS agent now, and we’ve had no problems. It was only UPS, and only because we didn’t have an internal agent working for us. Now we do, so we’re getting cleared clean and easy.
We pay a bit more for the service but it’s worth it.
Yes you are correct one of the orders took 8 weeks to arrive thanks to UPS and their almost 6 week FDA. Now something I did learn from speaking with one of the area managers if a package is held for FDA inspection there isn’t supposed to be any storage fees attached to the delivery. They tried to charge almost $200 USD for storage and I sent an email to the area manager and soon as they checked their email the fee was removed.
well are they better than ascent?
No dirt or debris in any of the carts I got. He did get 5 of the samples he sent me. All were good with zero issues.
My client has only went thru 20. Only issue was the bamboo tips didnt work/seal correctly and leaked at the tip to body gasket. @FTLD-X sent replacement tips as soon as I addressed the issue w/o hesitation.
I would reccomend and will buy in the future.
I just dont know if i can see giving $2k more per 2k carts …i may just take the returns
if you take a full cart and did quick soak in warm ethanol to get the disty out coukd u cook off the ethanol and reuse the disty?
The $ between the 2 companies is about even for the same style ceramic carts, no?
I would personally redistill.
I do it the lazy mans way.
Carts in a SS bowl, hammer them, dump alcohol in, wait 2 hours, filter & recover as usual.
The disty will be lower quality from this, will be darker, and because of the added terps, will act much wierder then normal oil in alcohol
I’ve did it and personally consumed them , they do come.out a lil darker but w some 2nd pass it might not be big difference.
I can’t tell difference in the strength and I dont add as much terps bc I can physically still smell terps even after no more bubbles even under vac
Would completely depend on amount of terps and the ifferent compounds used. Like if it’s 10% pg and 10% terps that are in a pg solution (most terps are coming dissolved in some sort of carrier so that would be 10% pg 10% terp cut) then that distillation run is gonna be funky and what you yield could very well be un runnable
never ever use pg just terps and disty
Just giving an example. But also very common for terps to contain pg or something similar in their solution
A certain “amped up” terp is reported to have pg
That means Floraplex.
Sorry for my lack of activity and slow reply, and thanks for the positive feedback. I can’t believe how old this thread is, before I noticed… It shows how burried I am. So i’m going to reply to a lot here.
I’ll do my best to reply to comments in the thread 1 by one:
The one thing I don’t know is if they come in a loading tray to save time. I’ll have to ask their sales person. Has anyone else tried them?
Our racks can come configured for any device: T&D IZR/ACF1, we are almost done making the rack for ATG Monoblox
How many did you buy to get them for 2$ i bought a pack of 100 and I paid 4$each.
The prices are on the website, in CAD.
Again, I have not reviewed the FTL and am interested in trying. But I have found the press top to more easily tolerate vacuum lock and I’ve found the oval ports to work better. So those features are not avaiablbe on the FTL.
Would love to get you samples. I can’t speak for the round vs oval hole, but we’ve found the Triangle hole to result in less lossage. We’ve also curved the tank, where the hole is. It’s not a 90 degree any more, this helps reduce lossage even further. Performance wise, aside from final product lossage, the shape seems mostly meaningless (by our tests)
The FAQ page talks about the major differneces between ours and our competitors, but in a nuthsell:
Our tanks use Zirconia instead of industrial ceramic, we use Viton instead of silicone, and we use Quartz coils instead of traditional ceramic coils.
We also offer the ability to tailor a cart to match your oil, which I don’t think any competitors are doing quite yet.
Hey, at least it’s not mineral oil or vite e.
I made a post about how we now offer 3 viscosities of cartridges, and the ability to configure a new cart to match any oils that don’t perform well with one of the 3.
Check it out! Hopefully it helps some people out.

@StoneD I tried these out too and liked them. only complaint I got from handing out 4 of my 5 samples was airflow wasn’t as good as ascent. maybe that was on a bamboo tip though. thought they looked great too the dental ceramic is a nice pearly white
Thanks for the post,… I requested a Low viscosity pack as I had leaking issues using HTFSE in the standard X-75 carts
