Good, mine has shipped - nice and prompt. I might get it tomorrow - well, I should, for the cost of shipping they charge. It should be first class. Just I'm not sure if it is with this company as they don't make it clear what type of shipping each option is.

Fingers crossed!
Who did you order from?

Electronic Cigarettes UK | E Liquid | ifancyone - I'd never heard of them before, but they were the only UK supplier that Footoon had listed on his site for the SE. They have the v2 in stock as well actually, but I won't be throwing £100 at that any time soon I fear.. :)
Oh, I've heard of them, almost ordered the Rose v2s from them, I think they are a pretty good, legit vendor from what I've heard, so you should have no worries.

Yeah I have the shipping notification already, one hour into the working day, so they certainly operate fast.

Imma just leave this here...





(came just as I have to go out the door, so testing will have to wait a few hours sadly :) )
That illustration is a little presumptive...age and height didn't always have a direct correlation, lol

Congrats btw!!! We are going to need pics as soon as you get home and are able to enjoy your new toy ;)

Yes, more than once, I've had someone ask me (all geared up) if I'm old enough to ride a motorcycle. Since I'm in my 40s that was confusing at first. Here they thought I was a 12 year old boy :eek: Uh, no, I'm an average sized woman, thank you.

Here = Ohio? Is that a particularly tall state? :)

I had a 30 minute window before I have to go again so I whipped it out!

Photos are uploading, be up momentarily

First thoughts:
  • Spares are:
    • Two screws (flathead)
    • Complete o-ring set in pink
    • Hybrid adapter
    • Non-blue flathead screwdriver
  • I like my serial number, 0421 - one lower might have been a bit cooler ;) But I like having '42' in it!
  • It looks pretty nice 'in the flesh'
  • Threading seems nice
  • I'm afraid the chimney wobbles like Santa Claus on a waterbed filled with jelly
    • dems86 I had no idea what you meant earlier when you said 'the wobble has gone' - none of my clones wobble. This wobbles :)
    • OK it's not horrible, but I noticed it immediately and was surprised as I'd never seen that before on any v2 clone
  • Also disappointed to find that the negative post only has a standard two holes - in and out
    • the positive post has the multi-hole as on v2 - I don't understand why the negative doesn't as well.
    • On a two post deck, what's the difference between positive and negative? Why have multi hole on one and not on the other?
    • Methinks I'm going to need to correct that with a drill
  • The airflow slot is much larger than the previous 3mm hole, but half of it is filled with plastic (the usual round insert under the bottom cap) so it's not as big as it seems
    • I'm assuming the gaps around that plastic total 4mm, so the 2x2mm on the deck can now be fully utilised
  • I didn't realise it comes with a little drip tip - quite cute!
  • All the spare o-rings are pinkish which looks like it might look quite good actually
    • but bear in mind that if you break one, you're going to be changing colour from the default white to this pinkish colour
  • I think I can see some oil residue on the stainless, so - just like a $15 clone - I'm going to have to ultrasonic this.
    • Not the best "first expensive authentic" experience I could have had.
  • The top fill is a little harder to get off than I imagined - there's not much to grip on the little round chimney piece
    • but it does look like it's going to be a much faster fill method than going through the four juice holes

Personally, I think this looks better than the v2. I wasn't a huge fan of the looks on the v2 (the original is drop dead seckzi).

BTW, you should ALWAYS wash any new atty, whether you can see any leftover machining oil or not. When people can find a oil/grime on their brand new K4s and other $150-200 attys, you realize that no washing process is going to get all attys perfectly clean before leaving the manufacturer ;)

It looks great on that Flask btw!!! Can't wait for your first impressions of the vape!!!

PS...mine has left S. Korea, so hopefully it isn't too much longer before I'll have one in my hands too :D

Yeah, my authentic SqR had taken the prize for dirtiest atty until a friend sent me a FT k 4 clone that was even more disgusting, lol! So much for my expectation of high end being clean.


Pink o rings, hmm. Don't see myself using those.

I'm going to be mad if it wobbles. My v2 never does.
