Just a wee heads up – this works out at around £35 with the code – I could be so, so tempted had I not ordered a normal S1 from AE earlier today for about £23.
I need general purpose computer that will replace old desktop PC (big screen stays),and be portable,also Windows support is important(x98 pro is win10+android). Is this good option?
If Windows support is a necessity for you, I’d suggest sticking with a laptop or desktop. Windows support of these type of devices is poor. (What works now, works. When they issue an upgrade, all hell breaks loose.)
As an Android device, it looks great!

Rule 1-1 as it applies to life, take it as it comes.
The tablet I’m tempted to buy is the Chuwi Hi10 which is around $160 with the current 20% discount. Unfortunately, FastTech doesn’t sell the keyboard made for the Chuwi Hi10.
You’re talking about a matching keyboard, right?
Otherwise, any bluetooth keyboard ought to work.
And if you really need a keyboard, you’ll probably end up with a laptop, anyway.

Got a bunch more stuff, Sanrenmui's, Ganzo's, the BTU, Skyray's 4x's, tools galore, drivers, xm-l2's, 2.5 and 3mm solder wick, solder paste, Convoy S2's, 3's and 4's. That was just today..
The stock S2+ draws a maximum of 2.8A, so just about any good quality 18650 will do. The flashlight has springs at the head and at the tail, so it doesn’t matter whether the battery is a button-top or a flat-top. And the choice of protected or unprotected cells should be based on your comfort level in following proper protocols for charging and recharging the cells.
Tried to order 3 car micro USB charger. KUNGHEI did not work. Time now is morning 7 Feb Eastern US time.
Update: it worked but I had to order 1 only, then changed to 3 then it worked.
If ordering 3 straight away the code did not work
Next, I experimented with adding individual items then seeing if I was “allowed” to checkout. I added some Sanyo 18650s and could checkout, again only using Sweden Post. In the past, USPS Expedited for Battery Products was an option and the one I selected.
I ordered some batteries yesterday and was also presented with Sweden Post as the only option (in the past I’ve used USPS Expedited for Battery).
I received a battery the other day from BangGood and noticed it was shipped via Sweden Post. Perhaps there are new shipping restrictions in place that’s forcing vendors to use Sweden Post for batteries?
I, with 20% discount, I bought SHADOW JM35; I also order the batteries, but the Swedes post have placed far too slow; also they serve 50 days, to make me get the goods, I left the batteries.
I just had the strangest experience while trying to place an order for some knives, batteries, and misc. items with FastTech. With the exception of a couple Nitecore 16340s, every item was one I'd ordered multiple times before from FastTech. When I went to checkout, I couldn't do so because no shipping option was available. In the past, I'd usually be given a choice of at least two options. Realizing some shipping options don't allow knives, I deleted the Enlan pocketknives (even though I'd successfully ordered them before). Still no shipping option. Then I removed all the batteries. Now, I was allowed to checkout but only with a single shipping option: Registered Airmail via Sweden Post. Since I wasn't going to bother placing an order just for some plastic battery storage boxes, flashlight holsters, and a butane lighter, I deleted all items in my cart. Next, I experimented with adding individual items then seeing if I was "allowed" to checkout. I added some Sanyo 18650s and could checkout, again only using Sweden Post. In the past, USPS Expedited for Battery Products was an option and the one I selected. Next, I added the Nitecore 16340s and was still allowed checkout with Sweden Post. Then I added the Enlan knives and couldn't checkout because there was no shipping option. I removed the knives then added the butane lighter. No checkout allowed ... even though previously the same lighter in my cart wasn't a problem. I finally gave up. Perhaps I'll have better luck later in the day, hopefully before the 20% discount expires.
Sounds like you may have found some faults with their shipping system. If your having a problem, know what you want and send them your list and tell them the problems your having. Definitely make a ticket to make sure you get your discount, I would have done that right away as you may have. I've spent well over a thousand dollars over this discount period buying everything from solder wick to 100 dollars flashlights, over multiple orders. I have not run into any issues. But as you have noticed, batteries are a strange bird to ship. For the most part FT has been well above any of the other asian companies to deal with when issues arise. For me over the years they have been around 98% consistent. The longest I have ever had to wait for something to reach my door is 14 days. Earliest has been 6 days. Not one of the other companies can even reach FT's worst shipping time. I pretty much use them exclusively.

That is highly bizarre, but living in Hawaii might have something to do with it. I think it all gets shipped to the continent of the United States. The reshipped to Hawaii. I've never waited more than 14 days. What do you think?
I have noticed that FT has been slipping on shipping items that show in stock within a few days. I ordered the BTU when they brought it on board the same day and it did not ship for a whole week when it said in stock. I cancelled the order. But I went ahead and bought it yesterday because of the 20%.
I just made a purchase (2/7/2016), used coupon code and got 15% discount. Should have gotten 20% discount. Coupon code: KUNGHEI Feb 5-7 : 20% sitewide discount Feb 8-14: 15% sitewide discount
That is odd, did you open a ticket? Looks to me that you are within the est timing they prescribed in their first post.

I just realized that while it was still the 7th here it has already become the 8th in their time zone.
I was going to order a couple of Tank 007 e09 lights, but the code KUNGHEI was invalid. It is the 14th here in New Mexico, but I do not know what it is where it is being ordered. I wish I had seen the sale earlier. The Tank 007 e09 has increased a lot in price.

Hi Jerry,
I checked the code and it is still valid. Please make sure you place the code in “ Have a coupon code” in “Summary of Cart”.
Thank you.

I recently received an order from you for a number of items. One LED was missing from the order. I tried telling you this on your website but you wanted to have a form filled out including pictures of the front and back of the package and another picture of all the items displayed side by side. I couldn’t do this, so I spoke to your chat person. He said without the pictures I could prove nothing. I asked for your email, and gave him my email. He said you could not communicate by email.
I order a lot of stuff from you. In fact I have two orders ready to be shipped right now. If you can’t take my word that one single LED was missing from one of my orders, or make communication easier, then perhaps I should be looking for a different dealer.
Just a wee heads up – this works out at around £35 with the code – I could be so, so tempted had I not ordered a normal S1 from AE earlier today for about £23.
Picked up a Convoy S2+ and 4 18650’s
Great price with coupon!

What sort of 18650 should I choose for the S2+?

code works for me, free/flat shipping and tried on AMC7135 chips, lenses, parts. some of them single parts, some multiple units.
have been shopping throughout the last 24 hours and it seems to be fine? I do have to reenter the code for every checkout thought but that is fine.

I experienced similar order problems this weekend.
And I had to mix-and-match, split up my orders, to get the desired shipping options.
Some of it was due to restrictions on knives, some of it was due to restrictions on shipping liquids. I didn’t order any batteries.

Thanks Fasttech!
Low mode and long runtime lover…
When there are no shipping options is because there’s no “intersection” on any delivering method between “batteries + knives + your country”
I’d love to order some of these but the V5 bins make me think they’re all fake/mislabeled.
I can’t checkout my oreder
anyone else ?
EDIT : NEvermind, I had li-ion mixed with other stuff…splitted them and it’s ok.
