Ok. Thank you I was expecting the price to be high. I got a quote on Allibaba once before through the message part. They got back real quick but moq was 5 and I only wanted 1. That may be my deterrent. I appreciate the help and information I'll check back if I make any progress
Have to remember some people are on a budget and can do 5 initially. I just received an email from kindbright with there catalog. I will be getting prices and letting everyone know
Quite honestly prices are not that great, and some things can be had for less from one of the China vendors. The only real benefits to purchasing direct is knowing what your getting, and speed of shipping. Or in the case of the Subzero X no one else is selling them except for the crap ones.
I'll also mention it sucks when you get something bad from them, my latest purchase direct from Kindbright included 2 mods which are completely useless, 3 RDA's missing key components, and 3 completely useless mod accessories (AV Key Switch) Now granted they will take care of it, but you'll need to make a video or take pics which show the issue. Then you'll need to wait to place another order before you get replacements/parts.
Not trying to deter your purchasing, but some things to think about.
I understand they can be had for less elsewhere but when your looking for something specific that the other ones don't sell I'm willing to pay a little extra. I've had no issues with the other kindbright stuff I purchased elsewhere. Risk vs reward I guess. I have also received multiple mods and a couple rdas as well that are useless, they were from other China manufacturers. I have 20+ mods and only 3 are authentic. All my rdas are authentic tho
Getting a dud happens if you buy enough mods.
Comes with the territory.
Happens with authentics as well.

I know there are duds out there. I'm not upset that I have a couple just trying to find a couple food clones for work and when I'm out an about so I don't have to take the authentics out. Lol
Such good mods I like them a lot

such swell mods, I also like them alot
is there a good site to order clones that ship in the usa i dont like waiting lol
I have two Subzero X clones.
One I got off ebay and I got the RDA and the mod separately from two different sellers thinking that they would connect just fine but they didn't in hybrid mode. The RDA wouldn't screw on the mod, it was a little too big. It's a really ....ty RDA clone also because one of the posts wobbles. The top cap is all one piece and you cant remove the drip tip. The Driptip also being metal. The stainless metal of this clone is very thick and heavier then the other clone.
Second I got from this site: ugobox . com / _p0145.html
It came as a kit obviously and everything fits well. I think the mod is the same clone I got off ebay but the RDA is completely different. This one is made of much thinner stainless metal but the topcap is two separate pieces.
Does anybody know if the second one I have is a Kindbright or how I could tell if it is?

The one from your ugobox link is not from kindbright, if the pictures are accurate. Switch is all wrong, and not even close to 1:1
What about this one. The top of the switch has the Plus sign and the plastic piece around it has the cut outs for the battery and is not round like the bad clone.

Your link is broken but I looked it up via item# I'm going to say no, it is not, though the switch looks somewhat correct Kindbright does not do a Gray, only SS, black, copper, and brass, plus the ears on the top of the switch look to be slightly different shape then the Kindbright. And the other seller on ebay is not either, engraving on bottom of the switch is wrong.
From what I know there are currently 3 clones, I'm not sure who make the other two, but from what I've read one is the version Ugo sells, which is the worse, then another with a switch that externally appears correct but still lacks the correct internals, and internally uses a plunger type switch this one sucks because it looks correct, but internally is nothing like the authentic. I would say both of those are currently what is listed on Ebay.
Neither appears to be Kindbright.

I also just realized an obvious giveaway. Kindbright have separate boxes for RDA and Mod. Both of those are in a single box.
