Ok, so I got mine in today. What a perfect tank. For me a perfect amount of airflow is the K5 on setting 2, which I am getting on the Skyline, as well as potential to go all the way from MTL to full blast. Quality of machining is top notch. I have never owned a high end authentic tank, but I cannot imagine that threads can be very much smoother then on this. Airflow is also smooth and quiet. This is the first day for me with it so I hope no issues will arise, like condensation in the base or anything like that.
But one question: In pictures online the post holes seem to be parallell (i.e at the same height). I am pretty sure they were parallell on mine too when it came, but when I put it back together after cleaning it the positive posthole is now slightly below the negative one. That is more of a feature than a bug, but I am a little concerned that I might have overlooked or missed a piece somewhere, or done something wrong when putting it together again.
Someone else have misaligned post holes?

Yeah... On his the posts align to the same height as he screws the base together. On mine, the positive post (on the right when viewed from front) is slightly lower than the negative post after screwing the base together.
It's not a problem, I am just curious as to wether this is normal on the Coppervape version.
Did you maybe lose a grommet or insulator down the sink? I always snap a few pictures of new atomizers when I disassemble it so I know if something was lost.
Quite sure I did not, but can't guarantee it. As far as I have seen there are three insulators in the base:
1) One for the 510 screw on the very bottom.
2) A larger disc that the "L" shaped positive post rests on.
3) A tiny one which goes up the hole for the positive post.
Have I missed any?
Don't know I wont get mine for a couple weeks. Did you watch the whole video and check to see if what you have match's the video?
I received mine today. It was about a week with slow shipping. Pleasantly surprised how fast it arrived.
As for clone quality I have a really hard time thinking the authentic is much of at all better. The machining is excellent with this clone and I have to think it's about as 1:1 as it gets.
I think esg is taking the piss a bit with their pricing. Over $200 and you don't get the ten pieces of plastic is just gouging. Hell €5 for all of them would even be ok. They don't need to turns. Profit on air discs when they're necessary to get the best performance per person
I typically don't buy clones but the pricing. The gouging on the air disks. And he lack of availability made it pretty easy for me to feel fine.
As for the clone again it's great quality. As for the vape. Eh. It was so hyped I probably expected more tha. I should have. I'm also only on two builds and two air discs. I have faith I'll find one that works superbly but I haven't yet. The 3x1.8 was too airy as was he 3x 1.5. I'm going to try the 2x1.5 next.
Right now the titanium gem from mark bugs and the heron v2 and spheroid v4 from GP are probably my three favorite atomizers. This doesn't seem likely to beat any of those. But now my expectations have been dashed maybe I can have a real experience with t and be surprised.
2 things for those with authentics
1) when the tank is tightened down all the way can you move the afc? On the clone the afc is dead even with the bottom of he atomizer which means when it's screwed down you cannot move it.
2) I wonder if the chimney threads are a little short on the clone. It does t take much to get it in and out.

I just popped in the 2x1.5mm air disk and rebuilt with 5 wraps 29 gauge around 2.5mm rod for 1.1 ohm build and it's WAY better than it was.
Couldn't agree more, over. hyped. granted it's a decent atty but imo the best things about the skyline are the machining quality, ease of build and all the air discs, for me the vape wasn't one of them, it's just ok. My 2 faves are the hussar and ubertoot, and they def. beat it hands down.
1)yes, on all of my mods except the vape shark which has a rubberized finish I can turn it.
2) it should take a few full turns to get it off.
Thanks mate! It's the mod it was on. It spins fine on another mod. I had a feeling. Stab wood mods with raised stainless 510 seem to do that.
I also just took it apart.
For the vape
Quality it changes drastically with he different air discs. My advice is find he air disk that lets you use the afc wide open. Tubing with the disk made a much better vape for me.
Also it seems like it doesn't like big builds. I was using a clapton build before but changing down to simple wire actually increased vape density and flavor. Odd experience but true.
Yeah I have to be real careful getting claptons in mine, it won't take fused but I have gotten a 3mm ID regular clapton just spaced enough to work in TC.
The other thing I don't really care for about the skyline is that it gunks up and turns my juice brown really fast compared to other atomizers, I have to rebuild a lot or it tastes gross. I think it's bc of the way the wicks are long and placed down into the deck. I found it doesn't do so good with cotton so I use rayon in it.
The hussar is the opposite though, it keeps its flavor way longer and gunks up slower than any atty I've had.

@h00ligan, consensus is that the air disks from CV are not the same material as ESG, hence the price difference. Still think you should get all of them for that price but if I find one I like and decide to keep the skyline I'll be getting an authentic air disks.
I do wish they had a tighter one than 1x1.5 for us kfl types. Hopefully the 1.5 is enough.
And I'm running a Gem v1, Heron v2 and Spheroid v3 right now. Definitely in the tops for me... As well as the Hussar, as @kiba, points out... fantastic RTA.
Efuntop top has the miniHi,
in fact I liked the kf 3 mini for MTL, but the build quality of the clone i had was just terrible (air control Screw got jammed inside because of bad theads, machine oil taste everywhere...) and I´m not willing to spend 130 Euros for the original
The Hussar looks interesting, but has no glas tank, which is a no go for me b/c I mostly use liquids with lemon and peppermint (menthol) flavours. We´ll see when it arrives. Ißll start with the smalles hole and see what´s what.
K.
TF gtv3 10usd works pretty dam well has a loser jfc , that dont jam or come out when removing the deck , works pretty Flawlessly even has the cloned branding which makes little difference to usage but tbh the unbranded do seem cheaper quality jamming chimney/ jfc and comes out with deck occasionally , ive ened up with a few of them as well as the Sxk , Coppervapes and sjmy versions , the mini just seems Flawless and the sxk one 5ml is flawless too the cheaper version unnamed is just rubbish,
Now this Skyline is just wow another flawless tank
Think i need a nice high end mod for this beauty
Although it does look good with the chrome VT75,

3Fvape is now carrying the Coppervape Skyline. The description is a little confusing as far as the airflow kit(10). It seems like it might be included. The pics don't show it though. Can anyone confirm this?
Why does Fastech have CV ones without the logo? Is it a different quality (cheaper version) or just no logo for those who don't want it? I really don't want a clone of a clone.

According to Coppervape the ones sold directly from their factory has logos, others don't. So the ones from 3fvape, 2fdeal etc should also not have logos. Correct me if I'm wrong.
