Boxer Clone

[Rathamar]

I found these this morning while checking on a FT order -

Boxer Styled 18650 Mechanical Mod

I may have to pick one of these up. I never liked the look of the Frankies, but these I do and that on off switch is a bonus.

The internals don't bad in the one picture you get of them. For $15 I figure what the heck right?

Thoughts?

I saw the Boxer clone a few days ago, but at the time it only came with a rather funky looking atty for about $20. Nice to see there’s a mod-only option for a bit less.

I’ll probably pick one up this weekend during FT’s 10% off sale (code THANKSDAD). For $13.46 it’s worth a shot just for curiosity.

According to answers provided by FT staff to questions posed, the contacts are SS, the 510 is adjustable, the button locks, and there are no magnets on the case.

I didn't even know about that sale - how do you find out about them? I will be placing my order until this weekend so Thanks for sharing it!

I seen this over on 3f too.I wonder who is right about what it's made of though.3f says it is 3d printed and fasttech says it's Abs,unless there are a few places making it maybe.

I'm guessing they are probably ABS plastic,as they look molded to me.I'm sure if they were 3D printed the price would be higher.The Yillong mods that they claim are 3D printed are about $35,and these are $15 like the frankie clones. They aren't 1 to 1 clones though,comparing to pics of the real boxers.But thats okay. Pretty sad that the clone is out and the real ones haven't even shipped yet.Alot of people that pre ordered the real boxers are pretty ...... about this.I'm planning to get one of these,so may just order this weekend to take advantage of the sale and play the waiting game till they get them in stock.Just got more bf attys from them and another frankie clone on the way.

Also,those bottles look just like the ones that come with the frankie clones. 3F lists them as silicone,I doubt that.I bought a five pack of the YFTK silicone bottles and hope they will fit in this. Those bottles are nice by the way,they did good on them,but My Galactika clone is the only squonker I have that they will fit in.

I agree - they are fantastic bottles. I got mine in a couple of days ago and have been using them in my Reos. Perfect fit, zero leaking, easy to fill, squonk like a dream. Going to pick up a few more for sure. No way to tell if they will work in the Boxer clone, but from the pics it seems like it stands a pretty good chance of fitting.

Your probably right about being molded,which i'm ok with that,i don't have any printed mods yet to compare to anyway haha.I have a Darwin sqounk mod which is printed on the way,but i doubt it has even left the U.K. yet,so it'll be a while.I'll definitely be ordering one of these clones too,but not until a few of my orders from China are in my hands,i don't like to have too many orders out at the same time,it's too hard to keep track of them haha.
On those YFTK bottles,what makes them not fit your other mods,is it the height or width?I have the 5 pack in my cart,but held off on ordering until i started seeing some feedback on them,which they seem to be well liked,but i don't want to get them and only be able to use them in 1 or 2 mods.

The height is just a little bit taller than a supersoft,but the cap is bigger in diameter.All of my other mods have too long of a 510,and I also think the cap will touch the contacts.I've got some mod maker 510s in the mailbox right now that I'm going to convert a couple of mine with,which will then have a shorter length traveling into the mod,and see if they will fit then.I would also heat shrink the contact to prevent it shorting on the cap.Maybe just order one to see if they fit your mods before ordering a five pack,then your not out much.They sell single ones at Fasttech for $4.25 I believe,so less than a supersoft.

Here is a pic of one next to a supersoft bottle.

Okay,couldn't wait till this weekend. Ordered the purple boxer clone from Fasttech.

I'm really curious about the authentic. May grab one of these, but that white button, blah.
If they add the 30ml boxer refill bottle which looks nice I'd jump on it.
If you haven't seen it Mike vapes shows it at 42min in this video from earlier today.

I'm torn between whether to get the purple one or the blue one,for the price i may grab both haha.

On the bottles,i may just grab one to try,but then again i may still get the 5 pack anyway.Since you said they fit the Galactica clone,i have that one on the way,so even it's the only one they fit then i'll have spares for it.Seeing that pic next to the supersoft,i could definitely see that cap hitting the contact on something like the frankie clone,my ss cap is real close,so that one would definitely be risky in it.I also have the Icarus clone on preorder,so once it shows up,hopefully those bottles will work in it as well.They look like they may fit a few other mods i have too,so i shouldn't have any problem putting them all to use.

Haha, I couldn't decide either. Chickened out and ordered the black.

Hotecig has the squonk refill bottle 4.99

Haha,yeah black is always an easy back up plan,it matches everything haha.I actually thought about doing the same,but i have so many black mods already,i figure it's time to add some color.

 

[puffon]

Before I order, do I have this right....
The included bottle is the cr*p one that is in the Frankie clone, but we are hoping the YFTK bottle will work, and the cap is not too big to hit the screws on the positive side? May have to put some tape over the screws?
