i have used nemesis stainless steel, i liked how you can take every single thing apart and clean it
i bought an stingray x mod after multiple reading and video reviews, copper inside, stainless steel outside, floating pin, magnets with firing pin, looks good too, its like the best mech mod i think, look of SS, connectivity of copper, floating pin and magnets with your fire button

anything else better?

I love Stingrays and have 5 :laugh:

I also love my Poldiac classic, and they're on sale this weekend at MMV. This is an authentic, not a clone.

Gus has great prices on their authentics, and some are on sale.

I also have an Infinite Skeleton Key, and its very nice, but you would have to find a used one. They got yanked right away for copying the logos.

I had a regular Stingray (clone) before I even realized the X existed. I bought a Stingray X (also clone) from Mt Baker Vapor on a whim a few days ago when I placed my juice order. Imagine my surprise when they sent me 2. I checked my invoice and called the company before opening any internal bags. I was quite pleased when they told me "bank error in your favor, enjoy." So I spent the evening using one and am very pleased with it. Functional, attractive, and very smooth. I am a happy camper.

    Don't know about better , as good as certainly but not necessarily better . The Stingray X and the copper Stingray are strong performers , they're my favorite mods right now , I do need to get a copper 26650 mech next , that's one area where I find the Stingray X clones are a little disappointing .

    Why do you say the 26650 Stingray X is disappointing? Have you had a bad experience with one.

    What kind of voltage drop are people getting on their 18650 Stingray Xs?

    Because the 26650 versions I've seen so far aren't all copper internally , ie brass contacts and switch components , also they don't have the Stingray X floating center pin . As far as voltage drop on the 18650 version I measured a .09 drop with the standard 510 topcap in place and a .03 drop using the hybrid adapter on my Hcigar Stingray X using a Kayfun with a 1 ohm coil .

    My Stingray X got here from Mount Baker Vapor today. (I ordered one and lol only got one) and I am really impressed! The seams are completely invisible, the threads are beyond smooth - I can SPIN the telescoping parts together! and the button has a short, smooth, didn't miss after 12 fires straight! button.

    This is this is the first and only mod I have with a floating firing pin, and I'm loving that, too! I just got done logging into Mt Baker to write a review, but the Stingray X is gone! Not surprised!

    anything better than stingray x clone mod?
    No lol...this thing is perfection! :laugh:

    I just ordered an SXK SS Stingray X through focalecig. I've been looking at this mechanical for over a month now lol. Finally decided to go for it. I'm really excited to check it out.

    I'm going to wait till the order ships to order more batteries through RTDvapor. I also want to get matching RDA(not necessary), was thinking a Veritas or Marquis clones. Nikkita did a review on the Stingray X and had a Mephisto with the copper AFC, looked really nice. The Goblin will probably end up on top though.

    I gotta say I only hear good things about the SXK Stingray X. I won't say it's the best because I have no mechanical device experience, but researching has showed me it's a solid choice.
