The engravings on yours actually look better than the Infinite Stingray which is all the rage right now ... hard to describe, but there is something different, in a good way about the engraving work on your Stingray.

This is the engraving on the Infinite SR ...


OK... here's some initial pics:

The packaging isn't all that great. Boxes looked crushed a little. Not much of any filler to protect the contents

Contents. (I ordered the Stingray with the drip tip)

Nice "Stingray" logo. it's actually cut quite deep

Over all it's absolutely beautiful. Everything threads on and off very well. Not sure who the maker of this Stingray is, but it's one hell of a job. I have no complaints so far. I have yet to use it. I will have to wait til I get home. This was kind of an unexpected delivery because I just saw last night that it was in NY. I'm in Mich so that was damn fast.

You are 100% right the first thing I do is completely take a device apart clean and lube everything.Really like the I.Stingray only thing is using a kick with a 18650. It's a tight fit but does work.

I heard that about the Infinite SR ... I don't use a kick, but my friend who has the same one said it was a no go with a kick, which sucks that the ext tube can only be used for a 18500 configuration. But I do like how small the SR is in 650 mode, which is only a tad taller than my other mechs in 500 mode ... I like my mechs as short as possible per battery configuration.

Got the group buy Caravela and Aqua! Oh my, they are beauties! The 'vela lives up to all the hype - just stunning!!! Waiting on a few other FC and FT packages now...vape mail is so much fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuun! :vapor:

:banana: That is so awesome bam! :) ... Glad your new Vela is in order, and beautiful just like I told ya! The quality of these particular pieces are impressive to me, and I don't get those who scoff at it because its 23mm. I am nothing but happy with mine, I think its a great mod ... and talk about shiney :2cool:

How does this Nemesis compared with Hcigar nemesis?
Sorry, this is my first nemesis, and i dont have an Hcigar nemesis to compare to :(
I dont know how well made the hcigar nemesis is, in fact i dont know who made this one! hehe.
What i can say is that If the hcigar one is as good as this one, then its very good!

Today I got 2 of these misprint Npmpsis. They are special for some reason. First the Name Npmpsis and secord, only the top cap and the tube below the locking ring are polished. The beauty ring and the locking ring are not polished. I like that. The name could make it valuable ;) and the unpolished parts offer potential for slightly new designs.

For those who will get one of these, please check the ventilation holes ( below the locking ring ) on the inside of the tube. They are not burred and could cut the isolation of the battery.

Threads are good, no gap between the tubes, good working switch as usual.

Funkyrudi, you must be a saint to not be bothered by the name misprints and varying finish on the tubes .. that would make me crazy :laugh:

All arrived along with my Stingray. So far I'm impressed with FC, as this was my first order with them. Everything seems to be good and no problems with the threads. Will clean it all tonight and vape on it tomorrow. I'm glad I found this thread and thank you Nikkita for starting it!

@Nikkita6

I knew about this issue. At the moment I have 3 Nemeses and 2 Npmpses and 2 mixed versions from group buy are on it`s way. I don`t care about the misprint, it`s funny and if you haven`t ordered one you`re not able to get one :) and now I have some more options to combine tubes, parts and atties. I would have bought them if I had known.

Actually I would prefer clones without logos and names. I have lots of clones and they should look like that. Npmpsis is a good clone ;)

Wow .. I can't wait to see it finished, by fellow creative being. :) ... Did you see my video vapeporn creation a few pages back?? If not, go take a looksie at my shinies on film. :p

I was thinking what the future generations will think of us with our ornate bling-o-matic nicotine inducing tubes, I do likes what you put there m'lady and I have now gone off on another tangent and added some gold leaf a friend gave me onto the Kayfun so its looking very very old gold now. By the time I finished plating and messing around with this poor innocent and defenceless Kayfun, its going to be as thick as a brick and probably fitted with LED's and a boot polisher ;)

How are ppl getting on with their Lotus if they got one? I'm finding it a bit hard work now and taken the twisted wire coils out and put some NR-R-NR ready made coils from FT in there as it was just too much and one hit was making me feel quite terrible :( BTW the Lotus RDA seems to come with a waxy coating that when polished off reveals a very very shiny finish on the brass underneath but then again if you are finding you're atties aren't giving you the hit you want, this evil monster may be what you are looking for.

What has happened to Focale's website, its all over the place for me, can't find group buy anymore as it just won't go to the page.

Can you possibly post a pic of the letters on your Npmpsis so I can see it closely.
Back when many bought the Trident from FT it looked like it said *gand* instead of *gRand*..... At a verrrrrrrrrry close look the "R" was indeed there but the font the Chinese clones are done in leave a lot to be desired--often looking like misspelled words.

Focalecig is getting a facelift, so things may be a bit ....y for bit until they get it all worked out ... I have no clue how to even log into the website at this point. I gotta email my honeyboo Doris and see whats going on, and how she is doing with the new site update ... She is probably working much too hard, saving the electronic cigarette world as we speak. :laugh:

Del, I remember when you first started talking about gold plating your Kayfun, and now EHpro has beat you to the punch! ... think you could sue? :laugh:

No ... but if some video taped tears can make a Pisces T clone from Focalecig to miraculously appear, then I can make it happen! .. but its has to be the Kylin Pisces at FC, not the plain jane one from FT :glare:
