Focalecig ... A new Fasttech??

[Nikkita6]

For those that were put off by the diameter of the Turtle Ship clone (like me), I found a 22mm one on eBay last night. It's a bit more pricey, but shipping in the US will definitely be faster. I also like how the entire mod is black and not just the tubes.

It costed me $51.94 after shipping. Turtle SHIP V2 Mechanical Mod Clone Vaporizer PVD Black | eBay

Now to either keep this one or the Focalecig clone... What should I do with the other?

Well if it hasn't shipped yet, cancel the order, and pick something else, like the SS Stingray. Its a good one to mix with black pvd devices, and it also looks good with the Stillare.

If it has shipped already, then I would get a Taifun GT or Squape to pair with it ... now you will have two new good looking set ups.

Broke down and finally decided to try FC this weekend

Ordered a couple of each of the new Glass drip tips to try, will post the vape porn when they get in

These should look good on most of my mods

Now the wait begins.....

Congratulations Drifter, you just lost your virginity! ... I definitely have the glass drip tips on my list, I like those, and I am pretty sure they are gonna look sexy if paired well.

@Drifter: Finally joined the thread buddy. Glad to see ya here.

@Nikki: Now you can get the Brass Kraken!! Hehe.

Nikki,

Meet my buddy Drifter. Drifter that's Nikki. Boss lady of the thread.

Ya see .. one big happy family of compulsive, obsessive, vape gear collecting hoarders! Drifter is in good hands ...

 

[Nikkita6]

Nikkita is focalecig diva and resident mod hoarder for sure

Guilty as charged! .. fivefour I meant to give you a hard time about "peacing out" yesterday! Did you make it to the beach?

 

[Nikkita6]

@Weezy ... How cool is it that FC stocked the brass Kraken, and a brushed one at that! I wonder how much the finish will match the brass finish on the 4nine? That is what I would really want to pair it with.

 

[G-weezy]

That brass Kraken has a more yellowish tone to it then he 4nines finish. The 4nine looks a little more brownish???

Yeah, I was thinking exactly that .. well, I could wait until I have it my hands (4nine) and then decide on something. There are not that many brass RBA's out there, and I definitely don't want a dripper for it. Ugh, decisions, decisions

The drip tip that comes with the brass Kraken at FC is really nice.

 

[G-weezy]

It is a nice drip tip.

Comparison.

 

[Nikkita6]

Yeah, I can see that but ... the white balance in the 4nine pic is extreme, and is definitely washing out the true color of the finish. To what extent? Can't be sure until I get it. The pic of the Kraken looks more true to life, as far as what it will really look like in hand. Hopefully I will have the 4nine by the beginning of next week.

It is a nice drip tip.

Comparison.

ATTENTION STINGRAY LOVERS, AND COPPER LOVER ALIKE *LAYLEL THIS MEANS YOU TOO*

This is what the cloners need to get working on next ... The Stingray X, which is a copper tube with a stainless steel overlay and its freakin gorgeous Apparently JD Tech has only produced 100 of them, and the authentic will not be available until the end of June .... Clone manufacturers need to get on this!

 

[G-weezy]

Why you teasing me on these StingRays. You know I'm a sucker for them. Hmmmm.....

Guilty as charged! .. fivefour I meant to give you a hard time about "peacing out" yesterday! Did you make it to the beach?

It was too hot and the seaweed was moving through

I live about a mile from the water and about 6 from my preferred beach so we get out there often, still would have been nice.

It's actually a few mm shorter than the current Stingray to boot, but imagine how difficult it will be to keep the grime out of the copper areas.

 

[young gotti]

how long does it normally take an order to get to good old 'merica from focalecig? and i've been searching, do they not have any 18500 batteries in stock?

 

[f1vefour]

I believe they are having an issue with batteries being shipped currently.

I think the average time is about 10 to 14 days to your door.

oh that might be worth the slightly higher prices than waiting 30 plus days

 

[G-weezy]

If you order batteries might take awhile. Check Vaperoyalty. They have good prices.

I ordered a bunch of my favorite tanks (no batteries) on May 30. Delivered June 7, a total of 8 days later, to me in Colorado. Excellent!!

There was a note on the product page saying 'processing may take 3-7 days'. It took at least 3 days to see any shipping updates on the tracking page, and by then it was well on its way. I used the shipping option EMS EUB->USA, which was free. It estimated '6 to 10 days'. So the estimated time for processing plus shipping was 9-17 days, but it arrived in only 8.

Everything was tightly wrapped in multiple layers of bubble wrap, then wrapped in clear packing tape, put in a manilla envelope. No damage, quick shipping, only place I can find the exact atomizers I like, I'm a happy customer. This was my second order - first one was a similar experience (that didn't have batteries either).

Didn't you know? I also work for MTS, Mod Temptation Services ... Just doing my job Weez

But seriously though, this Stingray X has me forgetting about all the others, now I just want this one ... but don't get it twisted, I will still take the others too!

It was too hot and the seaweed was moving through

I live about a mile from the water and about 6 from my preferred beach so we get out there often, still would have been nice.

I love the beach, but at night though. I can't do extreme heat, and sun, so very early morning, or late evening is my favorite time down by the water. I miss living directly on the water, but I am working on doing something about that. ;-)

It's actually a few mm shorter than the current Stingray to boot, but imagine how difficult it will be to keep the grime out of the copper areas.

I did in fact consider this .. my pre-plan is a regular cleaning with a toothbrush dipped in lemon juice Just cleaned up the copper switch on the SS Male 4nine I just received an hour ago (more on that in a few), and it worked like a charm. But you would have to stay on top of the cleanings.
