Iāve received a couple packages from FT now within about two and a half weeks, not with batteries, but packages do seem to be moving well now for me.
But yes, as always, they look they took an awful lot of smaller bumps and bashes, in fact the lights tailcap was depressed and when I inserted a battery it was already on āonā. Imagine that. But still not a single high enough force hit or puncture for a new battery to be damaged and vent
I got a ticket a couple of hours ago from FT stating that my order of 2 KK ICR26650 (4 cells in total) were not being shipped with my last order. Reading the posts here, I was hoping they would get through.
I guess that means I wonāt be ordering some NCR18650PF cells from them until this mess is sorted out.
This time around, I put through a single order of 3 pairs of NCR18650PF and guess what? Theyāre being shipped to me. I am tempted to see whether the 26650 were in fact removed from the shipping package as the picture provided by FT shows a biggish package being sent to me.
Well the ticket hasnāt been resolved yet, so if the KKs have been removed and I get refunded for them, Iāll try ordering them again.
That is a let down. What reason did they give for not shipping the cells? Because yes, I thought this was a problem now resolved in the main too. In this instance it seems worse because they were not even returned by the courier.
I have replied to them asking them to confirm the above because, after seeing a picture of the package (itās quite big), I have my doubts it was actually removed. If it was removed, I would try and order the KKs by themselves as the NCR18650PF order seemed to go through ok.
I have been on so many threads I donāt know where I am but I was sure FT said something along the lines that HKP was nearly back to pre-clampdown state and thenā¦they refuse to even send yours to to, Iām presuming HKP! What a crazy situation. Every week it changes, sometimes by very large amounts.
I think someone said Wallbuys had a courier that would ship Li batteries and Iāve seen a couple of people saying their Wallbuys orders (I donāt know what they entailed) had come through.
Iām sorry to hear that, I have an order that showed as āshippedā four days ago that includes a power bank with six 18650s in it. It still doesnāt track, so
I might have the same luck as you.
I think yours should be okay, if they put the cells in the power bank. I didnāt get anything in this order to put the cells in. I placed a separate order for them. Unregistered mail, should get here before Xmas! :bigsmile:
Have you received the refund? They still have not resolved the issue about my KKās yet. Also, my sister has confirmed that a package from FT has been received, but I believe this is the Convoy L2 host and not the order which included the KKās.
I wonāt try to re-order the KKās until I get some sort of confirmation (FT or my sister) that the KKās were removed/sent.
