Focalecig ... A new Fasttech??

[DelboyinDorset]

I've measured mine tonight (sounds a bit dodgy) and it is 23mm, luckily I was polishing them all up again and had me tools handy with a diameter gauge in there.

I've got my Kraken now paired with the Origin brass and my KFL is paired with the Nemesis mixed, found out what the poor firing was, the little guide pin had become tarnished and that is the main power contact for the switch, cleaned it up and toking away on me Nemmy

My Sentinel M16 Alloy and brass, the alloy sections are 23.5mm I've just found out if thats helpful for a matched set.

And this was with the Origin clone? ... I have to remember to clean my contact ever so often as well.

And where is Ms. NiNi? I want to hear about her Marstech kayfun ...

Ah no my bad for not clarifying but mean't the little guide anti twist pin in the Nemesis switch, the Focale Origin switch is exceptionally good so far, copper contacts are clean and tarnish free despite some heavy use, the only drawback is I think a bit more resistance is what I want as its butter smooth magnets but not the strongest and will fire on its own weight...

See, I am learning more about the Origin mod ... I didn't know it had copper contacts, thats awesome!

I placed orders with both fasttech and Focale before Chinese New Year. Fasttech well on the way with tracking number. Focale has not even shipped yet. If this is any indication Fasttech wins

You might want to email Doris. They updated their computer system not long before the holiday and it wasn't playing nice with paypal (if you paid that way) and addresses were not transferring over. They had orders but didn't know where to send them.

I wish it was all made of copper, I just lurve highly polished copper...

I polished the Origin tonite and it looks like its gold plated hehehe, its loving the Focale Kraken even though its got only one SS mesh in it, its really kicking hard

I've made up some 32 and .2 twisted coils for messing about with, want to put a twisted coil in my KFL and going to try the dual wick side by side build and see how it compares with the navy nest which wicks like a champion.

Bit worried there's nothing new on Focale but was looking at the Nimbus clone RDA as I have my little A4 thingy working and actually quite enjoyed it but it takes only about 8 drops before it floods so wanted something with a bit more, Focales is a 1ohm ready built job but says its not rebuildable :S

Paypal have upset a lot of companies out there with this kind of escrow thing that they keep trying to sign me up to, where you get the item before paypal pays and I know several British companies who are well angry about this as the money isn't instant, its just released meaning companies now got to wait for shipping time, approval time and then normal paypal transfer times which I agree is taking the mick just a bit.

At least with the old system if it don't turn up, then you do a dispute and get it back that way, saying that still not got my refund from Vaporbreak which is a shame as been a couple things on there I was going to buy but they can stuff it where the sun don't shine Grrr

BTW I have replaced my Kraken screws now with m2.5x8mm Allen screws, dual coil incoming woot

Ok here's an update:

I emailed them because my order was still "collecting".
They told me that the marstech kk was out of stock.
I asked if I could get a different mod of equal price.
I got the Origin Clone. WOOHOO!
Their customer service is A+ it took all of 30 mins to work the deal out via email.
Doris did a followup email.

I will NEVER order anywhere but here from now on.

Cranky I meant to ask you .. how are you on IMR batteries for your mech, and do you have a resistance meter, APV or otherwise? And how is your ohms law knowledge?

Thats awesome! Glad they worked something out for you that makes you happy. I guess that last promotion really brought a lot of attention to those Marstech mods. I feel so left out of the Origin crowd

What did you order?? If it was one of the promotional items, I am not that surprised. And FYI, FT has had plenty of those " too long to ship" items ... go browse their forums ;-)

I need to buy batteries. Was meaning to ask you for a reputable source. That doesn't seem like a good place to scrimp money wise. I have an MVP and a Provari, I can use those, right? I'm still learning ohms law, another topic that I have to take in small parts. My brain does not retain numbers.

Damn, even I haven't chatted w/Doris on skype ... I better step up my game .

Guess what? Chat with Doris again regarding my TGT package to see if it has been shipped but probably due to the many backdated orders, she forgot about getting the factory to do it and it went OOS again. So i would have to wait for next Tues stock(Would have to remind her again on Monday).

Since i was also looking for Sony 30A 18650, ask her about the listing on wallbuys to check if it's authentic and guess what, she say she will ship me those batteries for free as a compensation. I was like w0w and so i told her to ship my TGT once it's in and the 18650 at a later date when the stock is back online and offer to pay shipping for those batteries.

This has got to be the best vape shopping experience i have so far.

In your guys opinion, what are the chances that Focal will have the Caravela back to $14?
I just discovered Focal while doing a search for Caravela clones and while $21 is not bad, $14 would be better

If you head to their main page, you can actually see it. 1st device on the recommended list.

Or search for Sailing Type Mechanical Mod with Adjustable Pins-Silver + Golden(1 x 18350)

 

[nobreak1970]

Oh right....found it. Thanks.

I know the Cara clone they sell on Fasttech sucks apparently.

I'm sure this one has better reviews.
