Carpe Vapor , new skin kicks ass Well all I can say is that I'm happy with the purchase, the service I received. I'm in no way affiliated with the vendor, I do read the small print, I decided, I purchased , I is satisfied.

I received my greedy 3 today, all inspected and look fine. First one set up for my wife and she is over the moon with flavour and no leaks so far. I'll set my other two up at the weekend as I'm in no rush, there for juices still with 2 weeks left to steep There identical to one I got a few weeks ago from hightec trading, the hightec ones are a couple of pound cheaper but don't also include the clear tank. You pays your money and takes your chance, I'm well happy so far

newdawn I've heard enough about the aqua clone to say no. Its seems that 50% of people get a decently manufactured version and the othe 50% get ones which cause hairloss and anger issues. Whether this vendor has great ones , I can't say.

That's enough about that. Have two Russians on order with 10% off using the latest discount of juiceme10. Will leave the aqua alone and am back to considering a Spheroid again too.

Mines here, cleaned and 1.8 ohm micro coil with cotton. Running on an origin mech mod and overall very happy for the price, considering a UK supplier. Been running it for a hour so far with no sign of leaks from the fill screw. Nice flavour, real head rush with nicotine overload No real complaints about the build quality but feel my EHPro Kayfun light Plus has a slight, and it's very slight, edge on build quality. The wire screws grip better on the EHPro, had to fiddle a bit with one wire on this one it slipped off a couple of times as I was tightening the screw (not had that happen on the EHPro) But the other threads are as good as the EHPro. You get more spares (fill and airflow adjuster screws) with this one. Both have the same problem with the drip tip supplied, it wobbles slightly and is not a very tight fit. The airflow adjustment on this one is slightly coarser than on the EHPro. The screwdriver supplied looks like it has come from a christmas cracker Considering the EHPro cost 25% more (delivered price for both of them and both from UK suppliers) I can't complain about the differences. I would like to see a brushed version available from Irfan as I don't really like polished, will have to get the scotchbrite out and fix that I would buy another from Irfan, good communication and prompt shipping.

Scotchbrite I might use that as well.
So far rebuilt it a few times, filled it the max, no leaks. Ive taken the screw out of the air hole as a prefer a very airy draw.
Vaping some chefs vapour banoffee cookie and its tastes damn fine.
Ordered the svd from Irfan , again what can I say about the service, great, sent me several photos and a video of my svd!
Can't beat that.

Had a laugh tonight, stripped down the other two and cleaned in the ultrasonic bath, dryed and put back together. Then I microcoiled one and filled up with rhubarb and custard, thought I'd leave number 3 for custard until the weekend. Mrs calls me for tea. Goes back to the study, tools away, syringes clean and off to settle down with my new R&C. Off with the red Astaire and on with the new, absolutely nothing, wouldn't fire on the nemmy at all. Took it off and played about with the centre pin to make sure it was tight, not a peep ! Then I realised not only was there no coil in my kfl clone but no juice, I'd picked up no 3 by mistake

Mine landed today. It's the first time I've made anything other than a protank coil and good grief, it was no easy task! The screws are so tiny and the wire kept slipping out when I tried to tighten them. Got there in the end...with one of them. Managed a decent 1.8 and delighted with it. No leaks and great flavour from it. Will suffer through building the other one tomorrow because there just weren't enough hours in the day to do both. At least not the way I went about it. I've asked OH to make some sort of base to screw them into. Would make life much easier if I didn't have to use the hands to hold it while trying to fix wire to it. He's on the hunt for whatever parts and tools he needs to do the job, so fingers crossed it'll get easier at some point.

newdawn I just screw mine into my resistance box to hold it steady. If your using microcoil mount it on a blunt needle to hold it directly over the air hole while you connect the wires and tighten the screws, the needle can be used to offer resistance as you tighten each screw to prevent the wire slipping as you tighten and pulling the coil towards the terminals. Then when all tight use the needle to gently lift the coil up clear of the air hole

newdawn it will get easier when you have had some practice. Takes about 10 minutes, emptying, stripping down, quick clean, build and mount coil, assemble and fill. There is definitely something slightly off with the wire connections, it might be the screws I will have to check when I next build a coil. I filed down the deck slightly, to ensure it was flat, but that didn't make any difference. They get there in the end but it can be a bit fiddly to get the wire gripped. Now running 1.4 ohms and really buzzing.. Irfan said he is considering getting the brushed finish version in the future, for those that don't like shiny stuff. If you want that let him know, it might sway his decision.

If anyone is having any issues with the wire screws being a bit temperamental in gripping the wires, as I have found, get some of these: M1.6 x 3mm socket cap screws They grip the wire fantastically first go. Makes replacing the coil even easier

There is one weakness with this clone and that is the center post at the point that it screws into the top positive connector. Be very careful when trying to tighten because it will snap due to thin low grade metal. Otherwise these tobeco jobbies. Are really quite good.
