New Squape Rs 1:1 clone by SXK

[roxynoodle]

Machining looks great. As to ematal coating or alloy I can't tell you anything as I don't know what an alloy is and how I could tell the diffrence to a coating. Sorry for that!

Perhaps @nelsonm64 can.

Still haven't found the time to try it. Will have to wait until tomorrow. In the meantime I'm vaping on my new Goblin Clone that I got yesterday. Very nice and very good taste! Sort of hopped into my basket at foalecig, accident.......

I hate those basket jumping accidents. More than one lone mod or atty has found its way to my mailbox.

Tried a bit. Decks are not interchangeable between the Kingtu Reloaded and the Rs from 3fvape. On the Kingtu, the posts have a bigger diameter, and the screws are bigger. Kingtu on the right, Ivogo rs on the left. The base and the tank fit both.

So sounds like both the Kingtu and Ivogo SqR versions had fat posts then, right? Jeez, did any of them get the posts right?

I had the revised Kingtu and it was an exact match with the authentic so they could share decks. Same with the EHPro.

But, Chuckie and his sister have fat posts, lol!

Hmmm, too bad. I got so excited when I saw them at FT for under $4. So the holes on the deck for the posts were too small?

Would still like to hear opinions of the B-deck - if it's worth it, I might spring for the whole setup instead. Thanks, Roxie.

The B deck on my authentic is fantastic. The best thing is the cotton last for weeks cos the cotton is always soak with juice and no leaks. I have had it since June 10th and only on my third cotton change yesterday. Flavour is full and never a dry heat,

 

[Marmaduke]

I bought the Squape from 3fvape for the b-deck in the first place. So that was the first I tried. First wick, all went well. Second wick, leaking from the pluspole. Made me worry about the quality again. Chuckie and all!
I tried various methods to stop the leaking. Isolation from old Kangercoils, o rings and so on.Never liquid in the AFC, but always through the centerpin.

Then I read again about the b-eck being a bit .....y about the amount of cotton and how you put it.

Yay, less cotton it was. When you have too much in it, the cotton can build a bridge to the airhole, or there can be too much liquid in it so that it can flood the chamber and then off through the pluspole it goes!
Everything fine, totally dry again for a week now!

I really prefer the b-deck to the w-deck. You can do so much more when you want to do different coils. At the moment I am running a twisted coil with 4 strands, 0,20 Kanthal at 0,7 Ohms and it really tastes nice. No dry hits so far.

The EHPro is the only good clone you can actually buy. Eciggity has them, but you need to look for it on their site. They changed the name to Zquape or something.

I never had the EHPro myself, but everyone is happy with it.

I had a horrible Ivogo that I had to give up on due to the decks conducting. I bought an authentic and at the same time someone gifted me a revised Kingtu that was a decent clone. I've never seen that revised Kingtu available anywhere to buy though; he got it straight from them.

At any rate, I bought some EHPro decks for $3 on sale just to see if they fit. Those decks and the Kingtu decks were both perfect fits in my authentic, and vice versa. So you could buy an EHPro clone and use authentic decks in it.

hi roxynoodle
I just got the ehpro build ..for the second time ....within about 5 minutes the thing leaks like crazy ! loosing all the juece for the second time now . suspected the deck was the culprit checked out ok . now filled the top upside down with water with the hole plugged of course
the water runs right out !!! the glass don't seal !! is there spose to be o rings in there ? how do you take the glass out ?
no top vacuum no wonder it runs wright out ..any tips on this problem ?
sure need help on this one

I also received the single build plate (W) Squape Rs from 3FVape. First deck was D.O.A. and they promptly sent me out a replacement. After two months of waiting all is working now and for the most part I like it, but... I find the condensate collects badly in the mouth piece. Every 30 minutes or so I need to wipe it out. Mind you there is no gurgling or flooding because of it. 7/10

 

[Marmaduke]

Hi @rolf, yes there are supposed to be 2 o rings. In my Squape R there were transparent ones, so I was mistaken by thinking there were none and took the glass out. If there really are no o rings, you should look on the homepage of "stattqualm" the producer. With the product Squape Rs on the same page you find "Anleitung Glastausch". At least you can have a look at the pictures if you don't understand German. It is not difficult but a pita to do.
It is important that you have something round with the same diameter as the glass to push the glass back in again. It has to go over the first o ring that tends to come out again when you try that.

Its running out the windows? That's the first I've heard that with the EHPro. Yes, there are two o rings. One above and one below the windows. Getting the glass out is a pain. You might consider notifying the vendor, and asking for a replacement. Authentic replacement glass is $20 if you break it trying to remove it.

 

[roxynoodle]

Yes, the authentic glass kit comes with a wooden dowel to put it back in. Obviously you could try to find one at a diy store. The o rings are a pain to get in the grooves, I won't lie.

hi roxynoodle !
thanks for the comeback
put my finger in the tube and it slides right out . and what do you know... no orings in top or bottom at all !!
the bag has only one o ring in it which of hand don't fit right ...I will try again . guess I have to get some o rings now ...bummer !
don't know if it is glass ..it looks like plastic ( ehpro clone )

 

[roxynoodle]

Hmm, are we sure that's the EHPro clone and not the Ivogo?

If its the Ivogo, two clear o rings. They will make you think they are much too large, but they aren't. They fit into little grooves in the metal tank. They are a pita to get in, but they really will go in.

 

[Marmaduke]

Pita!!!! Yep, and you will think that they are too big to fit but they have the right size as they are supposed to go into these little grooves first.
It only took me 1,5 hours and in the meantime my husband left the house because I wasn't my nice and lovely self during that time........

Ups, nearly repeated what @roxynoodle wrote, sorry.

 

[cindycated]

It took me an hour of fiddling with the top o-ring until I realized that there was already one in there - I just couldn't see it. So if it gives you any grief and the o-ring won't push into the groove, double-check that first. Sometimes they're in there and it just takes a little wiggling and spinning of the glass/plastic insert to get it seated properly. Slow and steady, push the o-ring into the groove with a toothpick or something. Push it in good, or it'll pop out when you get to the other side. Start on one end and carefully work your way around. If it's any consolation, the o-ring on the base is way worse!

It took me 1.5 hours also. Made more difficult that the top one somehow went in, but I thought I lost it and was crawling around on the floor looking for it It seemed like it just disappeared!

What does the box look like? I ask because they sell both the EHPro and Ivogo. You may have been sent the wrong one.

The box sounds right. But, the EHPro should have a glass tank, and I'm surprised the o rings aren't in.
