I have neither seen it or have heard about it .. FC's product dept do most of the ordering for the China warehouse, whereas Doris soley handles the US warehouse. She had planned on getting the stumpy kit and kayfun bell caps, but she said that Pallas was acting flaky by telling her it was in stock yet the could not show her any pictures of the stumpy kit, so she didn't get it.

I will go take a look at FC's new arrivals in a minute ..

FYI .. the "Rose V3" looks like a really crappy attempt at a stumpy kit, and I personally wouldn't touch it. :glare:

Now I have to go look at the Rose v3 :). Although the juice control is one of the things I love about the V2.

I wouldn't touch that .. I don't trust any chinese manufacturer who takes liberties with an already proven design. Who knows how the revised chimney top will affect performance? The juice control adjustment is an integral aspect of how this device wicks .. how is it supposed to wick with a chimney that screws down over the base??

Also, being they changed the chimney/drip tip aspect, how the fudge do you fill this now being that the chimney screws on to the base, and does not press fit into the top cap? :blink:

The manufacturer who made this is a fool, and FC is equally foolish for stocking this ... DON'T BUY IT

The resistance still suddenly goes sky high out of the blue. At least now it only happens every couple days, but I admit I'm not vaping it much because it scares me. Been reading about this on other forums. The solution seems to be a longer 510 pin. It needs screwed in all the way to have proper conductivity with the deck. However, then its too short to make contact with the mod. Some are putting in a grub screw from the Rose, then trimming their pin to get the atty flush with their mods.

I haven't tried that yet. I emailed Eleven and she will try to get me a longer pin and include it with my next order.

So, what should I order? :). Any atty suggestions? I already have a kayfun, Lemo, taifun, 2 roses. Maybe I'll get the Stingray X.

I believe they have used a different hole to anodize the positive base. The Sq1 got an electrode in the center pin hole, while the other holes were sealed against electrolyte. In case of SQR they used the positive pole hole for the electrode. Have you checked this threading? It`s wide enough, so you should see the coating.

So what happened with the Wotofo, I am confused :confused: Why did you say there is no chance of getting it??

Well there is the Zero modz clone .. its still in production with only samples going out though.
Doris and Eleven mailed me at once to say so.
ordered on sept 30th, collecting product since oct 5th, and now results that there is no stock, and the provider don't serve more units, besides of fc has received some bad reviews about the wotofo.
they have offered me the robbot, or a refund asap. got the refund.
will save the money for the sx mini, or the zero, flask vapor.. no big problem

edit: the squape r took long to be shipped as well.. got some issues with the squape v1 (shorts, resistance jumping values, etc.), and it seems the new version also has problems about that.. i wouldn't mind if it was sold out before shipping :p

There are proper stumpy kits available, and it is the only kind and type that I would get.

By proper do you mean authentic/expensive or that the clone is available somewhere else? I did a quick Yahoo search but didn't find anything other than one overseas place that said it was coming soon and did not list a price. Cig-Pallas website has it listed and says in stock now (not that that really means anything) so maybe FC will eventually get it.

Trust me, I've cleaned the heck out of all threads and posts/screws/pins.

All I can say is don't put it on a mech :). Even if its been behaving itself a few days and you think its fixed. Its demonic!

    Well after 2 weeks waiting, sorry to say, but I am disappointed by the erl FC dropped today, only a plastic tank and plastic drip tip which you can't change out, don't like the idea of being only stuck with the plastic drip tip, so think I am going to have to pass on it :(

    Was hoping it would either come with the drip tip adapter or metal drip tip, but it is what it is.
