So how is the finish? Feel durable or VaporShark like....by which I mean easily scratch able.
It is the vaporshark finish but feels more durable, no angles makes it smoother & more velvety lush, the bigger 510 on the flask stops your attys scratching that area. I use it mainly for home use and am very careful with my gadgets ; ) Did I mentioned they used oxidised billet 6062 aluminium as opposed to the sharks cast zinc aluminium and reckoned the surface provided better adhesion ; )

nice, very nice! thanks for the pics, ordered one this morning. just couldn't hold out anymore 
now I'm hoping for a speedy delivery
now I'm hoping for a speedy delivery I got one today, but sadly have to send it back, there is an issue with the charging hold, it becomes uncharged after five puffs, and I tried six brand new Samsung inr 2500 mah 25 r freshly charged battery's. I wrote to them and told them the problem, and what to do, so I am not sending it back before they reply to me. Hope the problem is just on my unit, and that they swap it for a new Flask
Might not work but might, any battery problems with flasks is often down to the threads the caps screw into. Try cleaning the cap threads and the tube threads. I used "Ideal Noalox" joint compound in my threads from day one. Its possible there is residue in them or .... from machining. Just a thought
Sure Paul, I am going to try that, but I think its just my bad luck. Last week I got my long awaited PVA 40, and it was so nice, and sturdy, worked just fine, and boom, after half an hour, the screen went dark on me. I tried to take out the battery's to reset it, and I tried the procedure to go in and out of stealth mode, but nothing helped. It fired as it should, but I cant use it with out being able to adjust my settings. A friend of mine got the same mod, and his working perfectly fine. He thinks the connector from the screen to the chip is loose.Might not work but might, any battery problems with flasks is often down to the threads the caps screw into.

So there is not my intention to scare anybody from buying it, the Flask was really nice with the bigger screen and all. I hope some more owners are chiming in and tell theirs experience.

Mine arrived. I like it. Finish is nice. Smaller than I thought. 510 mount is bigger. Screen is bigger. Battery caps are brass. Batteries slide in very snug. I held it in my southpaw and it felt fine as to reaching the fire button. I pick mine up with either hand. The roundedness makes it comfortable.
Feels solid, actually, the same way my VS boxes do. The twin 18650s make it only .25" taller and .75" wider than my VS rDNA40. It is compact.
I don't have a regular Vapor Flask so I can't compare them.
Am going to start running it today.

Can any one comment on the construction of this mod vs. the authentic made in the USA version? How does everything feel? I wanna get one I'm just worried about VS ....ty paint. I've had 4 sharks and every single one of them the paint starts chipping away slowly.
My concern exactly.... Can anyone answer about the finish? The vapor shark RDNA 40 I have (which I do love) I feel like I could scratch the finish off with my fingernail if I wanted.... Only had it for a few weeks but around the 510 pin is scratched from just screwing and unscrewing my atty. Sweet mod....crappy finish.
I tried to fix it, but it did not help, so I am going to replace it, because it was so nice the short time it worked . The finnish seem wonderful and don't feel like its coming off easy. By the way, here is the fix, but I couldn't do the screw thing, Im am not that handy, and did not had the tool to do it either. Here are the fix >
I am really enjoying it. I also have a rDNA30 and an rDNA40 box from VS and they all seem solid in a "dense" way. No shake. On the boxes, I have the Shark Skins. The VS Vapor Flask I may look for a jwrap. Something classy. I have not delved into TC, I am currently looking for a good flavor RTA.
Good products to me.

So can anybody comment on the durability of the finish on this device? Does it scratch easily???
At this point I'm thinking I may just hold out for the VFlask SX350J version.....at least I'll know it's got a great chip and a rock solid finish. Love the shark I have....but the finish. Ugh.

Actually there was an announcement of the SX350J Flask a few weeks back on Taste Your Juice. I've heard rumors that it may be released mid August....but who knows how accurate that is.
I would probably pull the trigger on the Vapor Shark Flask....but am really concerned about the "rubberized" finish. So far no one has reviewed it or commented on the durability of it....
I saw where whiteout cloud maker is coming out with a dual 18650 box mod with the sc350j
Rubber finish is crap! Love the mod... Iv started to "peal" the rubber finish off mine slowly. Or the outside sealant. Il take some pics.
I put this thing threw hell in the last month. Yesterday I dropped it on the concrete. Has a nice sent on the bottom right. Works like a champ!
Battery life is suppurb. Zip charging is handy. I do like to take my batteries out at least once a week and charge them. I do have slight problems with the battery meter.
Stay away from the vaporshark kanger coils... Crap! Freemax coils in my starrpro are spot on after refinement!
I really hope we can upgrade this to dna200.... Either way I'm happy! I knew about the finish going in and I highly doubt any finish would last with me anyways. Adds character

I haven't seen VF for sale on any other sites lately :/ been wanting to get one but not wanting the VS version or the Squonk. Has VaporShark merged with VF??? I'm intrigued by the SharkFlask just cuz of the zip charging option and I don't vape over 30-35w anyway so a DNA40 board would suffice for my needs. Torn between a good SXK clone and an authentic just cuz I haven't seen them around anywhere else....
Anything VS seems to have bugs for the first few months -- I won't pony up $189.99 for ANYTHING until its bulletproof LOL
