This is your most Darth Vaperish set up yet, perfect for you! This could be in Star Wars for real :laugh: The finish reminds me of Darth Vader's helmet :D

So Art already posted pics of the black Manhattan, but here is a couple of mine :)

You picked a good set up, the Dominator looks made for this mod :) sweet!

SKU: 20099

Haribon on top of Dominator APO whatever it's called. Matches the mod nicely. Both have the engravings with the background chiseled out. Threads are very clean. Smooth flawless. Mod is very light like it was made of aluminum. Switch is recessed and fantastic. No magnets for backup like original stated in reviews and flossing the mod pre-released.

Adjustable 510 pin. Tubes are almost non existing. Overall good mod for the price.

Don't ask me about voltage drop cuz I don't know and don't mind. As long as it fires my RDA RBA I'm fine. I have my cloud chaser if needed. Looks good to me. I'm happy with it.

The Kayfun would've been completed if my dumbarse added the quartz kit when all my parts said ship next day. :( Now it's on my next vapemail galore. Put a ticket in for 3 more unshipped items. Each unshipped order has goodies ready to ship. Might as well combined those and put the rest in one order.

Whoa that sucks .. I will never try to split an order again, it takes them a full day between responses, so that by the time the conversation is resolved 3 days have elasped, which put me closer to the original ship date. Ugh, I could have just added the Taifun caps to the existing order if I knew it would ship a full week and half ahead of schedule.

All of that for three RBA replacement top caps, 5 drip tips, and a 20pk of magnets. :(

She's gonna have to get the KF add-on accessories to add onto it though (which they should anyway). Otherwise, you get the bloated fat chick. And capacity goes way down on those in KF Nano mode (as pictured, the one that made me go :hubba::w00t::drool:). haha I have somebody actually trying and measuring that on another thread. I'll let you know what I find out.

The KFL rose gold in the same package as the other two they already carry would be awesome. Seems like nobody else is selling them with the Nano kit, and cheapest I saw was $35.99.

Well after the mix up and having to wait longer to get my Beast Flip it finally arrived. Couldn't wait to open it up. Mind you at this price I'm not expecting it to be just like the actual flip. But I am expecting a nice mod.

First impression. Loved the look. The eagles head replacing the V3 symbol is a nice touch. Though it feels a little lighter then the Hcigar. On the main tube they media blasted it and then polished It back out to a fine brushed look. So on the main tube the media blasting only shows in the recessed milled areas. It really helps the engravings to stand out more then they do on the other flip clones I have. Very nice. With the area inside the shield having a dull look and the eagles head being brighter. It's really sharp looking. The same for the lions on the sides. The area around them is blasted which makes the lions stand out nicely. Similar to the way V3 does it.

Tried the fire button. In one word ... Smooth. From the locking motion, to pressing the button, even the feel of the milling on the bottom is very smooth. Really happy so far.

But then I tried to flip the tubes. That's where my happiness ends. Flipped the bottom tube to the smaller position with no problem. But the top tube won't catch when flipped to the smaller position. Something is wrong with the threading. Swapped tubes around. But still in the shorter position that one flip tube will not screw on. And that's the whole point of having a flip.

Then I notice that there is a rattle coming from the top cap. It's the 510 connection. For those that don't know, the 510 is replaceable on the flip. So if it gets stripped you can get or make a replacement. But it's loose so when trying to screw on a atty the 510 connection just spins.

On a side note. I swapped the Hcigar 510 into the beast top cap and it works fine. The beast 510 is just a hair too thin. I can fix that issue, or buy a 510 connector from V3, but shouldn't have to. Also the beast 510 is lacking the cuts in it that you should have facing down. That's incase you strip the 510 connector. You can use needle nose pliers to keep the 510 from spinning while you work the atty off.

So tonight I'll have to get up with customer support.

I'll post some pics I just took of the Beast and the Hcigar 101 flip side by side if anyone's interested.

Wow FC dropped a blue stingray x, I love the look of it, better than the black, would of gone in the cart, but it's 26650 :(

Aw, it was a good shade of blue too! :(

Whoa. Did you guys see the copper Manhattan in Group Buy? $19.90. Hard to tell which version though, by the description (doesn't match the pic).

Oh no this isn't for work, it does have a strong switch, but don't think I would trust it not firing when tucked in my e-cig hostler, this was never intended for my work mod, I have the Paragon coming, which is meant to be my work mod, if it works out right :)
I'm really concerned about how difficult the switch may be to fire. I have fibromyalgia and on bad days even an aluminum mod with 18650 gets to be uncomfortably heavy. (I end up using an aluminum SVD in 18350 mode with a mini ProTank on those days.) You mention pinky firing in another post. Is it really not that strong and just has a long throw? Otherwise I'm liking the look of it more and more. Even the sorta shiny black looks decent although I'd want the mat version.
a few vendors carry them but, only a couple claim they are "tobeco" I know of atleast one more and it looks kinda cool. and ya they did a terrible job on the posts hey... you'd think by now they would know that just doesn't fly anymore ;) check out this other version.

Odd. Would they really picture the Orchid with aftermarket extras like the drip tip and nano kit? It looks so much better than the typical pregnant look in those pics. But with those extras you could buy a Fogger which holds more and still does dual coils, granted on a rather smaller deck.

Ooh, add me in for one of those. I think the rose gold would look nice on the red Manhattan.

Too bad, if it was 18650 I'd get it for that blue Taifun I like.
But it looks like those bad 18650 Stingray X clones as far as quality. The simple punched through steel tube, the copper not flowing into the cutouts, the outline text instead of all the good things about the well done SXK clone. Why forgive those in a 26650 tube when they get condemned in a 18650 tube?

New here, and have been lurking on this thread for a couple weeks now. Got my red manhattan from FC, and it only took 2 business days to show up! Thought you all might enjoy a little vapeporn. I think it looks killer with the brass tobh!View attachment 366151

Welcome to the FC thread.
How is this Manhattan performing for you? What is your opinion of this mod?
I have the red and copper ones and I think they are probably the best vape gear purchase I have ever made.

Eye candy. They wanna sucker you in so you would forget all about the pregnant lady. :laugh:
And you already know what Nikki's gonna do to you if you put a TF on a Stingray...


Weezy, I came across this and thought of you:

The Hobo V2
The top cap is replaceable with SS, copper, brass and black (I think comes with)

I love it! This thing hits like a freight train, and it looks amazing. I love the simplicity of it as well. Will definitely be ordering the copper one next week when my vapegear budget is replenished, lol. With the copper contacts on this mod and on the tobh atty I am really impressed. I don't always chase clouds, but when I do it will be with this mod for sure.
