Well to start off, I always thought people saying how some mods hit harder than others were talking out of their a..
I have sure been humbled.

I don't mean to turn this into a comparison, but aside from 1 or 2 hits from other peoples mods, I have been using a SS Nemesis clone. I got this Cartel made by Infinite less than an hour ago, and what a difference.

The difference in vapor quality alone is ridiculous.
I'm getting better hits with a 1-2 second draw than I ever could with the Nemesis, no matter how long of a hit I took.

The physical quality is also outstanding. The tubes are significantly thicker than any other mod I've seen, which gives it a great weight. In fact the Cartel's 350 tube without the switches is heavier than the Nemesis with the switches on.
All of the threads are perfect and the switch has 0 issues.

I guess I don't know why I'm posting any of this really. Just to say that there really is a huge difference between the mods out there.


Here it is with the 650 tube and a Tobh Atty V2 clone.

I'm going to be picking up a copper Tobh and a copper 2puffs HDT drip tip to go with it in a couple days.
I'll post another pick when that happens.

Just got mine in the mail on Saturday and everything you said, Crow, was spot-on. Incredible quality and hits like a beast. Can double as a blackjack even in 18350 & 18500 forms. Love this thing.

I've been pairing it with my Stillare clone and my black Tobh atty….awesome. Next addition: copper version of the Tobh.

The reasons why it hits better than your SS Nemesis clone is becauase copper is a more conductive metal than SS and because of the single tube design (doesn't relate with the Nemesis 350 mode) and better threading.

That was the last clone I bought, it worked pretty good, the only heads up I'd give you is to be careful with it in pockets, even with the recessed button I had it auto fire in my jacket pocket once, and careful polishing it, the etching isn't as deep as it looks, I rubbed off a good amount of it after about 3-4 polishes.
