What is the difference with nemesis.

[hijack]

Can anyone tell me what the differences are between the good nemi clone and the nasty one that I keep hearing about?

Mines a cheap focalecig one but it works well ! Bit of filing to fix the crunchy switch and some magnets and it's as smooth as butter ! Think there's so much variation in each batch it's luck of the draw !

[hijack]

So its down to the fire button and how smooth that is?
I got the copper one from FT and was just curious what the actual difference between the good and the bad was.

think that's the main issue from reading the reviews ! Same as the stingray ! Apart from the switch which was an easy fix mine is fab ! Can't see the joins in the tubes , it's that good I though t they had sent me the 850 model , like I said it's just hit and miss !

Yes I have a stingray on its way from FT as well, and I went for the cheapest of the brass model because that was the one that had all the reviews, and the more expensive one had no reviews at all ???

I have a Nemesis clone from a store in Birmingham (can't remember the specific name), the switch is absolutely terrible. I sometimes take it out of my pocket and the switch completely disassembles itself and the springs and bits fly across the room.

my brass version from ft has threads stripped
that's the problem with clones you have to be prepared to tinker

+1 for magnets though they will improve any switch mechanism

So where do you place the magnets and which do you use? the ones with the hole in?

When you put it back together you need to make sure the main battery contact is nice and tight, nip it down with a small pair of needle nose pliers

Mine did the same thing in the first 5 mins of me having it. But I think it was because I unscrewed the bottom pin to far when I set it up to fit the battery, and that caused the anchor pin to fall out. Now I have it set with a 2mm gap to the locking ring it hasn't done it since.

And make sure you only adjust the top pin
The bottom one on the switch should be as tight as possible
