Well, the way the invoice is presented would seem to indicate that it is in fact the serial number of the device, but after all this I'm having to realize the number might in fact be meaningless. It's not anywhere on the device itself, and so I think I have a question for MMV. My other two Poldiacs do have serial numbers on the bottom caps, but those might mean nothing as well. At this point I'm far from certain.

Oh great... So it would seem we have no means of proving the authenticity of our Poldiacs, other than the workmanship apparent in them. When one pays good money for an authentic mod one would like to be able to show that it is in fact an authentic. I do indeed have questions for MMV.
They can accept a reality check.
Please survive the economic turmoil in Greece.
This will be my 2nd Poldiac & 3rd Greek mod, & I couldn’t be more satisfied with the quality.
Greece still has a lot to offer the world.
Dear Kent,
Thank you for your kind words. I think we will be ok, we just have to move to a smaller building now so we have the discount on all our products to reduce the stock....
Kind Regards,

I agree, the way the invoice is presented one could easily think that the number is the serial number of the device ordered. I don't know where the serial number is supposed to be in the Aname sleek, I've never seen a sleek in person and I only own classics. On my classics, the serial number is bottom cap.
Yes, that's where it is on my two Classics, but not on my Sleek. So I for one would like to find out why there is no serial number on the Sleek models. There must be a good reason. I was intending to buy another Sleek, but now I don't think so, at least not until this matter is cleared up.
I'm wondering If we could get anyone that has a clone to tear one down and take pics. I'd like to be able to recognize one for future reference. Is there more than one manufacturer that makes the clones?
I just checked the invoices for my two Classics, and there's no such number as appears on the invoice for my Aname Sleek, that I took for the serial number, nor any statement of what the serial numbers are on the devices. This has become a rather curious matter.
None of the clones come with peek insulators so that's one very easy way to tell. Of course, that only pertains to the more recent authentics when MMVapors started including the peek insulators on all Poldiacs.
Also, the contact pins on the DaVapes clone are not reverse threaded like the authentic. The Asmart clone does have reverse threaded contacts and they are solid silver, but I don't know anywhere that actually sells it anymore.
None of the clones come with the button alignment tool for the switch so that's another easy way to tell if it's not included.
Just to clarify, I'm only talking about the first two clones that hit the market, the classic clones. I don't know anything about any clones after that.

As a long time fan and user of Poldiacs I can give some info on the serial numbers.
The classic serial number is on the battery cap on the bottom of the mod.
The sleek serial number is on the switch housing on the back side, 180 degree from the firing button. If you rotate the shirt 180 degrees on a sleek you can see the serial number through the hole in the shirt.
The numbers on the invoices are part numbers.
I have both a classic and a sleek Poldiac, a Nanos and two of the OverOne drippers along with a good selection of spare parts for all.
I hope Jim and entire staff at MMV can keep their company going in this tuff economic situation. I have to say they are a top notch company with great products and customer service. I have enjoyed all my dealing with them in the past and their products.
Sometimes on a new Poldiac the switch can act a little strange at first. It either can have a very small speck of Peek material from the machining process on the contact points or it just needs to be used for a day or two to let everything "break in". I have never heard of a switch being bad and having to be replaced.
Congratulations to all of you who have gotten a Poldiac before they stopped producing them. You have one of the best mods ever made, if not the best mod ever made.

I'm loving my Poldiac. I posted about my switch but it does seem to have broken in and is working better now. My Le Magister has a permanent home on my Aname Sleek and is my favorite vape setup.
Thank you so very much for that! You have answered my questions and cleared the matter up. You are right about the switch, my first one did require a little break-in time but was working perfectly in short order. My experience with my 3 Poldiacs has been that they are indeed the best mechs I've had and they are all I use since I got them. I now feel much better about going after a 4th.
My Poldi that I ordered in Feb. didn't come with an alignment tool, but I understand that they stopped including that awhile back. I did order one later on tho. Still gonna be tough to pull the trigger on a used one and tell if it's an auth. or not over the internet unless you are familiar with the seller, and trust them.
Well, since most of the clones have fallen apart or had a meltdown, I'm not that concerned 
Also, not sure, but weren't the clones all 22mm mods?

I've bought 2 classics and a sleek in the last 3 months or so and all came with an alignment tool.
Well, just look at you. (joking) Good you got em, and I'll most likely order another when and if I can, after things hopefully, settle down there. I shouldn't really need another unless I lose the one I have. I really don't want to order anything right now while everything is in turmoil.

I really don't want to order anything right now while everything is in turmoil.I did the same, two classics and a sleek, and mine also came with the alignment tools.
Well, seems I missed out on that, but I'm not gonna hassle them about it. I will be getting one included with the Peek Ketron
parts I will order when things settle down there.

Oh, are they? Ok, some clone I saw was 22mm. MMV lists the authentic at 22.6mm(I know, 1/10 of a mm)
roxynoodle,
While I was reassembling mine today, I remembered this thread.
If you remove the battery tube, you will find a ring on the bottom of the switch assembly with slots on opposing sides to accept a screwdriver. If that ring is not screwed far enough into the switch assembly, the battery tube will not screw all the way in either & the pants spin.
Try it; you'll like it.
