I'd also be really interested in checking whether these things really provide the performance they state.
I watched the Field of Vapour YouTube review of the Cool Fire 1&2 and he had some kit to test their claim of being 8W devices. Neither were! So either his testing kit is faulty or, more likely, a lot of the claims that manufacturers claim need to be taken with a pinch of salt.

My Kayfun has a 1.5 ohm microcoil and on full power you really notice the difference... In fact, at 12W it's a bit too much for me.
It wouldn't fire my 0.8 ohm Atomic though...which is exactly what it shouldn't do! As far as I know, around 1.5 is the lowest it will work with.
The original Kick only goes to 10W and the FT one is 'supposed' to go to 12W. Are you comparing the Kick2 which fires up to 15W?

And..... They all work perfectly in all my mods! None of them required sanding or any adjustments at all.
I placed the order on 26th December and arrived on 13th Jan. Pretty good going from one of our 'favourite' Chinese vendors!

boyofford - what are you going to use for your wick? If your using cotton then make sure that it is pretty drenched. Keep your eye on it from time to time and you won't get any dry hits. If you, you'll know about it pretty damn quick!
I need to try more silica wick builds in an RDA but, as cotton works for me, I'm putting it off until something new and shiny arrives in the post.

Thanks for the tip matey. I had that in my basket for ages but ended up opting for the Kraken clone. I didn't order it that long ago so I'll see what that's like when it turns up before deciding whether to go for the Taifun.
Suddenly my vape budget seems to be going slightly further than it used to...

Ok, I know that it's not gold and that it's a clone but for a tenner this FT clone is a bargain!
First thing I did was it pull out the pre-installed wicks and coils and set it up with a single microcoil. It works perfectly and the only complaint I have may be a positive. The o-rings on the air control are tight but the upside is that there is no way this thing is going to fall off your mod.
I gave it a clean in an ultrasonic baths hen it arrived even though there was no machine oil smell at all.
A bit +1 for the Trident clone from FT from me. It only took two weeks from order to delivery which I find more than acceptable for a tenner too.

Totally agree that from a marketing view there is certainly no harm done to FT. I just expected more than the 5 or 6 vape related products with the full 50% off. FT did ask us customers that we'd like to see in the sale and it looks like everyone's requests were ignored.
Just hope that the 'Kicks' are decent and work out of the box. Yeah right!

By the time I got in all the vaping deals had come to an end. That's what happens when you offer such a limited amount of products for sale to an international market.
Instead of picking up a 1p torch, I bought three 'Kicks' for about £16 in total! Even if one works then I'm on to a winner! You can still use the discount code 'XMAS' which you enter at the last minute. A further 5% off is available for the 'Kick'
Really surprised with the lack of products overall in the sale. Almost everything being sold was poop.

At that price I couldn't resist at least seeing one. If the quality is poor and the posts are an issue then I'll update this thread.
As it is just the posts, maybe just the screws, I can't really see it being a problem if using it as a dripper.
I'm not an expert on chrome plated brass but after all the reading up I've done it's worth giving it a shot.
Thanks for the post!

IMHO, sell the Provari if the money could be better used elsewhere. For some people, vaping is the way to avoid smoking, for others it is a hobby that WILL cost you a fortune. You won't make a huge loss on the Provari, they have a good reputation and there is always demand for them.
Buy a Spinner or Vision Twist. Both are excellent VV devices and you don't look like a muppet with a truncheon when you take them out of the house!
