Got stuck with a couple First Batch (Bad Batch) BF Cyclones that VA claimed were authentic but just did not function (tight draw, drain hole too high off base, etc.) as well as later batches of BF Cyclones. Though the 2014 edition BF Cyclones looks good (screws, deeper well, etc), what makes a BF Cyclone a Good rba is the AFC. The AFC is the game changer, IMO! :vapor:

Mine showed up today and a little bummed....not impressed. Should have gotten a new RM or waited for a used RM2 in the classys. Oh well live and learn ...and waste money. :laugh:

Did you get a lemon one? What's wrong with it? I love mine more than life itself and have another few on their way!
 

unsure

Its me...I expected too much. I need to drill the hole larger because the draw is tight imo and though the vapor is big I didn't notice a improvement in taste. Funny, it appears to get much hotter faster than the RM2. No biggie. :)

Phew I had a panic attack there for a second...

Once you get your airhole sorted you will love it... being able to just pull off the top and rewick and push it back on instead of having to unscrew you will love... I also find it more forgiving on my constant over squonking that I do...

But yes at the end of the day the vape is not that different (and I have convinced myself it's marginally better with the Cyclone) and it's hard to justify the massive difference in price between the two!

Got 2 from MOV and 2 others from whateverthatlinkwas - all 4 are v2 - drilled the holes out in 2 of them and just got vapemail with 2 AFCs...omg the AFCs are awesome but now I need a silver one and a blue one!

Blindfolded you can not tell the difference between the RM2 and Cyclone drilled out. To me its a fashion thing. I love the look of the Cyclone with or without the AFC.

Without the AFC the Fusion drip tip takes the Cyclone to a new level.

Only thing is they are rarer than hens teeth.

Good to know MX
I like the standard cap too, hopefully I'll never be into sub-ohm
It's a slippery slope

I'm laying for one of those drip tips also
Was searching this afternoon with no luck
I'm going to check fasttech, they might have a clone
I'll let you know
Checked FastTech - no luck
They do have a crappy Cyclone though, $5

Thanks, I am also not a Sub-Ohm person just low Ohm. Can not get into cloud chasing.

Just flavor and TH :) Good vapor is a good thing but I think some take it a bit over the top (JMO) but to each their own. :)

This thread has reminded me that it's time to sell the AFC caps and fusion drip tip that I have not used since getting my chalice. I'll list them in the classifieds a little later tonight.

I've been hunting a fusion dt for weeks! I'll be stalking the classies tonite.
