@purple1234 i have looked into these befor are the wics easy to do your self? as in replace and make? These and the kayfun are really simple to build. Have a look on youtube for tutorials showing how it's done. Some people prefer using cotton in them for wicks, I prefer silica. It's rally just a question of finding out what works best for you and practicing. The diff co in the vape from your I clears is huge though. Much more flavour and a much bigger nic hit. If your interested in rebuildables these are as good a place to start as anywhere.

I reckon it is the same as the vaporbreak one. Worth the extra to be able to send it back easily if something is wrong with it. (My vaporbreak has iffy threads on the fill hole, so I can only fill it from the top, which is something of a PITA)

Looks the same as my Russian from Hitechtrading giles , fantastic atty but the same problem with the fill hole threading, wrap the fill hole screw with PTFE tape - sorted.

As I am using SS rope & Ekowool build which blocks the wick hole somewhat, that helps to stop that issue (but it will leak eventually)

Guys as soon as I get it I will update the thread to see if I get leakage. Had a phone conversation with the store owner as I was concerned about possible leakage, he did say he had had no issues (yet) .
But I will probably use the plumbers tape or buy some tiny o rings from b&q if its leaky.

I have this atty, bought from vaporbreak in china in December. I got lucky and got one without any issues, although I do get a tiny amount of leakage from the fill hole from time to time. There's no o-ring seal around the fill hole on the model I have, so it's to be expected. It's not a huge problem for me as I change attys several times a say so a quick wipe sorts it out.
I saw someone suggest a little dental floss wrapped around the base of the screw as a plug to solve any leakage, but I haven't tried it myself.

Got it today. Gave it a good wash. Built a coil. Loaded it up with some hol reserve. Left for a few hours. No leaks . Threads are a bit crunchy compared to the Russian it also feels more weighty. Building deck and screws are sound. The juice channels look good. Vapes like a champ. Can't complain at all. Any issues I will let you know.

Exactly the same - I got mine from vb back in December. Some people on here had issues with poor manufacturing on this line, but mine was fine. One of the advantages of buying in the uk is that there's some quality control, at least at this end, and if there is a problem you will have replacement within a week. Of course, you pay a premium for this piece of mind!

ionian , I agree with the quality control, I mean the vendor said he inspects every device out before shipping to customers any problems quick call back, job done in a few days. Yes I could have saved a tenner, waited a few weeks etc , but I'm an impatient bugger lol.

It's actually half price, with free shipping (China compared to UK), but yes, for £14 plus the UK shipping, you do have easier comeback and don't have to wait a few weeks.
Or you could just buy 2 from China, lol.
