Does the authentic calix v2 not come with spare o rings and screws ? And two screws only in the four screw deck ?
A friend gave me his. Authentic. And it only has he bar and Allen. He did not use spares and confirmed it came with none.
Also his tank broke into s million pieces on small impact. Which is strange thing for a plastic tank. What's the material of the plastic? Macralon. Pmma ? Or plain old bpa containing polycarbonate?
So why the deck didn't have four screws with at least four more in a bag with one more black and one more red o ring. Surely tanks over $100 wouldn't short the customer on what equates to $.25 worth of spare parts right ? I mean that would be nickel and dining your customers to a ridiculous level.
As for the tank. Can the old glass one be purchased or only the expensive less stresmlined cage glass stuff ? I don't care for the look or what he weight will be.
I'm concerned to order a particular tank due to material and the way it broke. I'm surprised at the 2 screw no spares stuff.
The box is quite cheesy too with the logo
Rubbing off
And it is authentic purchased directly from byleo
So he gave up and felt it was a ripoff. Gave it to me to try and I will do so. But first impressions for him were awful and very bad for me too. Hopefully it's an anomaly. And mist of these go out with soared and the tanks are more durable. Plastic shouldn't shatter.
As for vape quality. I'll post back.
Compared to other boutique manufacturers I think some basic product things need to be addressed with the calix v2. If I lay over $100 and don't get s couple five cent I rings and screws I'm already going to be very annoyed. Before any weak tank issues
We don't use polycarbonate, only plexiglass. Plexiglass breaking into a million pieces is a bit strange from a small impact.
We stopped making the fused glass tubes for a lot of reasons, so the only glass option is the Cage.
We used to put 2 spare screws for the SS cup in case someone lost one. Now that we have different lenghts we put 4 short ones on the SS cup and 4 long ones as spares. As accessories we give 4 screws, the spacer, an allen key, a screw for the air flow and 2 o rings for the pin, which get the most pressure.
The bag you are holding is missing some orings etc. If it was our mistake a simple email could have fixed it. We always fix anything we do wrong. We didn't get any emails. I personaly go over all customer emails and never go past any of them without a solution. You can see it here as well.
Also, we are constantly shanging our products to better fit our customers needs. That's why we have so many different editions of the Calix.
What makes it more expensive than others is not its fancy presentation.
It's the material, which is the best SS for vaping and more expensive and time consuming to process.
Most companies use 316L and not 304L like we do for those reasons and still offer their products at the same prices.
And no, the clones that say that are from 304L, they are not. They are from SS303 plain (tested). Of course some companies (Chinise mostly) use the worst materials, like aluminium, brass and nickel contacting the liquid which is extremely hazardous for the health (beacuse of anthrax, nickel, molybdenum, oxidization).
We know that we are a part of an industry that cares more about looks than the actual health of vapers and we have been blackmailed a lot of times for ruining their image by providing information about it (other cncs, stores, manufacturers). But we will continue to provide what we believe is best for the vaping community for as long as we can last
