Attack of the Hana Modz Clone. Let's wait together!

[VapDrak]

I'll tell you this right now. I wouldn't buy an authentic Hana or any other box mod for more than $150, and even that's pushing the limits of what I would be willing to pay.

As I've stated before, one of the primary reasons I'm interested in this clone is because it would be so easy to gut and install a real Evolv dna chip into it. Using the box and buttons as the base I could produce a "Hana clone" that was an authentic dna and the electronics assembled to a higher quality than Hana does themselves. Every wire would be cut to precise lengths and neatly trimmed and routed, all soldering would be done using silver solder and all wires would be pure copper wires. The board would be mounted on a holder plate rather than being epoxied in, and the 510 connector would be silver plated with an adjustable or floating pin. All for less than $150.

And I figure I could completely rebuild it 3 times like that before reaching the price of an authentic Hana.

I second retirds request of a step by step guide!
It would be awesome and not so much for the cost factor as for the satisfaction of beeing your own QC.
As things go in the vape world perhaps we all should think about DIY for mods & juices

That's where I'm at now. Evolv board has been ordered, and will hopefully be here within a few days. I need to decide if I'm going to swap my clone @ FT for a replacement, but I have decided that even if I do I'll still swap the board. I just don't think the clone boards are reliable, and the 510 connector isn't made properly. Mine stinks of burnt electronics now. :-(

The FT cases are well made, though. Buttons seem pretty nice too. The fire button was stiff for a few days, but loosened up pretty well. I think a genuine Evolv board and a spring loaded 510 connector would probably make this better than the official Hana.

I wanted to give you an update on dealing with Cloupor. Having been able to snag a red unit from 101vape @ $78, I have decided not to place the $644 order for ten units direct from China. I do think it is a good deal, and dealing directly with Cloupor is straightforward. However, the availability of colors has changed from Cloupor, and this will have a direct impact on the US market for box mods in those colors.

As you already know, Cloupor is giving up on orange anodization. The color looks "wrong" to those accustomed to the pre-order photographs, orders for orange were not very strong in the first place, and the coppery final color is not popular with B&M resellers. What I did not already know was that Cloupor was giving up on green, saying it too is "too hard to do".

Their order book is stacked, and the most popular colors are - in order - black, red, silver, then blue.

They are able to crank out blacks most easily. She quoted me a 5-7 day timeline for an all-black order, and a 7-14 day timeline for a mixed case of colors.

Wow. Am so glad I got green, if this holds true.

That's pretty much what happened to mine.
Sometimes other functions would work, sometimes not. Then after a few hours it went back to normal and has been fine since.

 

[dabba1991]

Have you been keeping track of ones that are bricked? I'd be curious to know how long anyone has gone for an extended period of time without serious issues.

I got mine from 101 vape on 6/16 and it is still working as it did the day I got it. Been using it non stop since I got it with RDA, RBA and even a Nautilus.

I just got my green and it looks amazing. I also have a black and it appears they are painting the black ones and anodizing the green.

 

[cclaplante]

Neat trick. How'd you manage that?

Apologies for the interrupt, but I'm guessing it will be ok with all of you.

CASAA has issued its 3rd CTA (Call to Action). It takes only a minute, and as we all know, it's pretty damm important.

Nope....not counting the number of bricks...I guess those not saying anything about bricking are not having any serious issues....
