Clone: Private 2 (Grand Vapor)

[juicewon]

i have tried everything.

5 different attys, 4 different batteries, moving the pin, moving the switch. no luck.
the pin does sit real deep in the 510 but even adjusting the pin on attys that let you do that, doesn't help.

pretty frustrated

When I first got mine, the pin would hardly move. I literally had to force it to move it. I wound up removing the pin from the delrin. I then filed the inside of the delrin. I filed enough so the pin would glide by tightening the top cap to the battery. It is now a floating pin.

I recently got a Private clone using the instructions on pg.11 and it was a lot easier than I thought. Took about 5 minutes. I wrapped some fine grit sandpaper around an allen wrench and just sanded enough for the pin to move up and down but not too loose. Piece of cake! I waited 2 and a half months for this dam thing to get here and doubt I'll even keep it, but it hits pretty hard. I had no idea it came with silver plated pins.

Has anyone had any issues with threading on any of the hcigar clones? My m16 has very soft threads at the top. Wearing down pretty quickly.

if anyone is still trying to get one, I just bought mine from ebay. It is a Cigreen clone rather than hcigar or w.e fasttech is supplying.
Threads, copper, brass, and SS parts are A-okay! only thing is you need to give the entire thing a good bath before using. Some of residue, like machining grease, is still on the parts. Although, this one still has to punch out the silver plated "floating pin."

Fasttech does not carry any HCigar products.
Leo has stated HCigar doesn't do biz with FT.

For some reason almost all clones seem to be covered in machine oil.
Seriously...bath any Chinese clones before use.
I even found machine oil on braided silica!
