Hoover? Henry? Dyson? What are these things of which you speak ??? I believe they are electronic clones of a sweeping brush. My mother once told me about such witchery

My personal take on this - I come here to get away from clones arguments because basically, on this forum, hardly anybody gives a damn about clones and they buy what they want/can afford. It doesn't really matter if I agree or disagree with that - that's how this forum works. I know that and I read what I choose to read on here. We will never all agree with the clones issue and it's crazy to think that you can change the way people think with endless discussion over the same topic. Some people are sick to death of hearing it.

So... this company makes this great vaping object of desire and decides to charge 200 quid for it. Well-off vapers say that's a new toy I'm having that, everyone else says 'sod that'.
The man with the clone in his eyes looks at the great vaping object of desire and says 'it's a bit of metal with a tank thing at the end of it, I'm going to make one'.
He doesn't call it Great Vaping Object Of Desire for fear of infringing copyright, he just sells his own version for 20 quid. It does the same thing as the uber expensive one. Everyone buys it.
Everyone stops, thinks and asks... why the hell were they charging 200 quid for it in the first place? Well-off vapers don't care, they have paid for the brand name. Everyone else congratulates themselves on not being so f***ing stupid and enjoys their clone.
The end.

I have both, some clones, some high end mods, I received a clone today a Nemesis from our chinese friends, and couldn't wait to try it out, unfortunately one of the sections that screw on was threaded and would it come off, I tried heat, err some lube, gripping it with rubber, hey were still talking about the mod here, and eventually with two pairs of grips on it I managed to get it off So then I had to clean up the marks that the grips had made on it with some wire wool and it's pretty near perfect, and for less than £20, it's bloody brilliant, no idea what the pukka one costs but a fair bit more than that probobly.

I think I have got it now, when I am outside hoovering the car with Hetty, I thought people were saying "look at that CLOWN", they were really saying "look at that CLONE"
