    It's happened, the AQUA has been CLONED

    I own two authentic Aquas and ordered a clone from c2c for spare parts. Science of vaping on FB made a larger 3.5 ml capacity clear acrylic tank and plain ss cap on a group buy. I've ordered 2 sets of these.

    Nemesis magnets from DealExtreme (10050098W) Specs?

    These work perfectly fine. I have the larger real ones from Atmomixani and I get a clicky feeling with those so I switched them out to these. Three magnets were too stiff, two work great and doesn't auto fire when standing unlocked with my Aqua.

    I mirror polished the section under the air holes to tie in the polished deco top cap and break up the brushed section. Looser draw than my KFL, flavor and clouds of a dripper. Aqua's insulators laugh at .2ohms. My KFL is getting jealous. Aqua build dual 7/8 wrap 24g Kanthal 2mm EW @ .3ohms. I...

    Flitz polishing compound (Sears, Amazon) and dremel with polishing wheel @ 10k rpms then increase speed till a mirror polish. If you want to remove the brushed finish you may have to use 3m 800, then 1200 grit sand paper by hand the same direction of the grain, then polish with Flitz polishing...

    I'm not in the cotton club it seems to get dark really fast. I use Eckowool since it can take the heat a bit better. 3mm folded once with the loop end on top of one channel and the cut ends on the other. .8 x .1 A-1 ribbon wire 2-3 wrap gives me .7ohms sitting perpendicular to the bridge...

    The Origin by Footoon vs Geobukseon (turtle mod)

    Added the Fauxgotti cap then I polished the airflow ring, bottom beauty ring, and firing button. I also brushed finished the accent rings and the 2Puff slash cut muffler brass drip tip with a fiberglass bristle scratch pen. Polished the KFL end caps, ss tank, and base of Chiz drip tip last night.

    The Origin by Footoon vs Geobukseon (turtle mod)

    I fixed most of the issues that bothered me with the Origin firing button. When locking or unlocking it used to squeak. When pressing to fire, I could feel something rubbing and clicking. I found a solution posted on UVO Systems FB page where the took they ends of the springs and very slightly...

    Introducing....Bmods. Custom drip tips and more!

    Is the same tip as above -SMT- has on his KFL? I also like the clean lines on this shorty Ohman can you replicate the decorative airflow ring on the top of the Origin mod possibly with the slot and holes around the diameter of a wide base, a straight slot right above that then the smooth top...

    Clone: Private 2 (Grand Vapor)

    Tried swapping caps from my aluminum M16 and the brass version. The aluminum caps will fit on the brass tubes but the brass caps won't fit the aluminum. The threading on aluminum tubes must be a smaller pitch. The aluminum tubes are a tad shorter and will fit my Panasonic CGR18650CH button tops...

    Someone also posted a pic on UVO System's FB page showing how he the bent ends, pretty much how I did. Footoon Changyoo Kim said his next version will use magnets instead of a spring.

    Origin Mod by UVO Systems

    I took it apart today, bent the ends up away from the the sides and vent holes. It button is quiet and smooth now. Also no more noise or feeling the spring scratch in the bevel where it sits when I turn the locking ring in both directions. I also made sure to torque down on the knurled nut so it...

    Drug dealers have been using the metric system here since the 80's with kilos for weight and using 9mm chambered guns like the uzi, mac 10. Today they use the same metric system but upgraded to 7.62 x 39 round in their gold plated AK47s or whatever they received from the Fast and Furious. :laugh:

    14500 cheap mechanical mod?

    I received my True Bagua clone from VT and ordered some Efest 17500's 700 mah button top batteries. After adjusting the top contact pin to it's maximum I still get a very small gaps which I evenly adjusted so one side isn't so pronounced. I happen to have a china made rda that is about the right...

    3/4 wrap .8 x .1 ribbon Kanthal, threaded two 1mm Eckowool= tons of vapor @ .8ohms. I wrapped the coil around the shaft of my mini screw driver. This setup puts out tons of vapor with a warm throat hit and good flavor but it likes to guzzle juice due to the efficient wider heating surface area...

    Questions on RIBBON WIRE for rebuilding atty's

    Did a dual coil 2/3 wrap on a single braid of 3mm Eckowool using .8 x .1 annealed A-1 ribbon wire getting .3 ohms. It's not burning my juice and producing nice vapor and good flavor. I may try a 3/4 wrap next time to get .5-.6 ohms.

    Just got new one off Calivaper's classifieds. Did my first build and had the coil using a single strand 3mm Eckowool / 30g Kanthal 2/3 wrap sit perpendicular to the screws but right on top of the center air hole which seemed to make the draw too tight. I did another one making sure the coil had...
