Oh don't be ridiculous hun, everyone here shops at FT too .. in fact we all shopped at FT first! :p

not anymore, I finally five almost six weeks later got my second order, some mflux drip tips that were supposed to be two each of five different colors, nope, a bunch of gold ones and one of three colors and one aqua one that doesn't even fit the tanks ....and did a ticket on it and no response from Slow Tech but the review on Reseller got an INSTANT response from them that was a freaking ad on how it takes them 2 weeks to ship blah blah.. :facepalm:

so thanks OP for Focalecig, the order we had for Ed's Bacchus came in ..in two weeks.

Willy is out, my neck and back has been killing me today, the vicodin and morphine is kicking my .... I keep falling asleep, it's not a slow fade, it's flip the switch and lights out, then wake up five minuets later. I blinked out a few times mid-vape LoL. Hope tomorrow is better, I'm giving in and going to bed. Night all.

Score! .. Someone else over at the other forum just rec'd one who said his was great except that the edge of his fire switch felt sharp. A few others in the ZNA thread felt that their's had too many flaws for the price point, and I agree. At $100 every piece needs to be perfect.

That being said, I much prefer the Robbot over the Wotofo .. the body and switch are just :wub:
Have to somewhat agree with their sentiments, there are quite a few edges that feel rather sharp to my sensitive fingers including the fire button. Granted, the heft and general feel of it is very nice but I'm wondering if I'd have been happier with the Wotofo one instead. But its still stainless steel right, just a cheaper, easier to work version? So weight wise it wouldn't be much lighter? Just wish they'd have taken the tiniest bit of effort to round corners a bit.

Thanks to whomever explained about building a Taifun. Found a nice write up also with pics. The whole chamber pushes down to mount the coil then pulls up to wick is a nice design feature. And both look great on the Turtle Ship clones, blue on stainless steel and gold on brass. Thanks for the mock ups.

If the weather is better tomorrow I can hopefully do some porn. Should be able to get pics of at least 10 mods without any effort. Just need decent daylight, my phone camera takes horrible flash photos. Today's dismal and rainy day isn't going to work at all.

Very impressed with the design of the Rose V2. They even have a tiny grub screw to control how easy it is to move the airflow adjustment ring. Not sure when I'll get around to building on it though.

Well I am glad that you had a better experience with FC .. sometimes the large scope of FT business and consumer base can be an issue. :(

Aww Willy, I didn't mean to laugh but they way you wrote this made me laugh a lot :laugh: I keep envisioning your head dropping as the switch flips, and then spontaneously popping back up .... like a slow motion bobble head :D :laugh:

I do hope that you feel better though hun, back pain is the WORST! And believe me, I know!

Dude If I explain one more time the difference between the Wotofo and the Robbot my head is gonna pop off :glare: ... :p

No Wotofo is not stainless steel, it is a Aluminum main body with a stainless steel tube. The Robbot is a stainless steel main body and a stainless steel tube .. and I do much prefer the Robbot over the Wotofo. The Robbot is just sexier, feels nicer, and more substantial .. and I don't have to double click it out of sleep mode, and the switch has a better tactile feel for me.

I like having both because the Wotofo is a ZNA Lite clone, and the Robbot is a ZNA original clone, and if I had to pick just one to keep it would be the Robbot easy ..

Either that or she is off playing with her new special toy. :laugh:

Smart Alec....My daughter is transferring to Luxembourgh as the head of European Relocation for Amazon so I am in Seattle playing with my grandson and cooking for my kids for a week. My new Big Nasty came here to my sons home so I am playing with that too. We were also informed of another grandchild that will be arriving next May from our second son. Party this afternoon for the daughter and son in law's goodbye. I'm just having a good time all around.

Oh don't envy me, believe me it is not nearly as fun as one might think ... its an assembly line of items that are seriously beginning to crowd my living spaces :blink:
This I can relate to!!! That's why I give stuff away to my kids that vape.....AKA hiding the evidence!
