iTaste SDV's arrived..but..

[lairey]

I got my SVD from FT (purchased Nov) and like enjay's it has the branding engraved above the fire button, on the battery tube and on the base. Maybe drop them an email and ask them to confirm? How about the box and the user manual?

Got mine from myepack .. Great service !! The box itself that the svd comes in as a label that you scratch off to reveal a code , then input the code on the innokin website , that will tell you if its a genuine svd or not

[enjay]

Woohoo! Mine's genuine!

Bottom of the page, need to put the number in without any gaps and not as it appears on the label, yeh I did it wrong first time lol

Hey guys. This may seem a little paraniod, but wonder if any of you can shed some light.
SVD arrived yesterday from FastTech. It's working fine&am very impressed.

Just a little niggle on the cosmetic side!
On the unit itself, there's no 'ITaste SVD' scribed into the stainless steel above the fire button, &I've noticed on pretty much every other unit on YouTube vids, etc this I'd clearly visible.

Could be nothing more than an oversight at the factory finishing stage,
but having read so much about 'clones' &the possibility that some or all of these mods sold by FT might not be the real McCoy,
I thought I'd put this concern to you all in the hope someone might have similar experience.

Cheers guys&happy new year to you all!

Alansi, cheers for that.
If indeed it's not the genuine article&is manufactured by these guys, therefore a 'clone', just how safe is it to use? As in placing a fairly high powered battery in it&using it near your face?!
I'm planning on ordering the original from MyEpack to draw comparison, but in the meantime, need I be concerned using this one?

No need to worry - the first and most usually buttons stop working...

My FT SVD has the writing above the fire button but I still suspect its a clone. I paid £23 on the slow boat and have no issues so far. I am happy with what I got for the money I paid. If it screws up in a few months then I will have had my money's worth from it. Looking forward to Saturday, going to BBC Studio in Glasgow where I hopefully compare my shiny and get some seasoned vapours opinions on it, Authentic or otherwise.
