Hey folks
Always loved the look of the caravela, but the price and the multi pin thing turned me away. I'm looking for a beater to carry around and I heard that some of the cloners are now doing a telescoping pin. I know infinite does it, but can't find one in the 2 tone I want. Are there any others that offer this? Who makes the best one currently?

I have the hcigar one, and yes, the single pin STINKS. HCigar is same as FT, Vela-wise. I tried filing the pin down, and must have not kept it flat enough on the file, started causing shorts.

Can't use the tubes, too short for any other top cap and switch combo, even true hybrid atties won't work.

Tried the switch on a Paps tube and top cap, arced the hell out of my batt.

I've given up on Vela clones as fail mods.
