Sorry, i don't want to be a mean, but you get what you pay for.
It's really your chose to buy it or not.

Laylel,

Why are you lecturing me?. ;-)

I paid for and chose to buy products from FC that Doris promised me were genuine.
The prices were on par with that of HealthCabin's, so I didn't expect to receive the caca I was
shipped.

Also, I purchased 1.8ohm Kanger coils from FC last fall and they were authentic, so I'm a bit disappointed.


Why don't you hound Doris and have her remove the (1) sales item purchase limit for Canadians
before all the good stuff is gone
. :toast:

Now that's what I am talking about! :banana: ... Nikki likes them big :wub:

Keith, in the first pic I couldn't even tell that was the Pisces and Kayfun standing up in the chest.... Now I see it perfectly. :)

So tell me, where did you get your Kayfun, the machining on it is giving me the tingles. :blush:. Its looks like the one on Focal that I am completely in love with. :wub:

My 3.1 is an exact 1:1 to the Svoemesto, but many of the newer 3.1 clones are showing up with that stunningly, beautiful machining that makes the tubes look almost seamless ... I love that look :drool:

My order has taken exactly 20 days so far. Funny thing is, its not Focals fault. Its been on the east coast for 10days. Its taken 10 days to go from New York to Atlanta. I should get my order tomorrow. If not it'll be Monday for sure. Ridiculous USPS!

That is so crazy! I just saw a screen shot of someone's tracking over in the FT thread, and their package has been at ISC, NY since 3/27 :ohmy:

10 days from New York to Atl is just WRONG! .. sorry that happened to you. :(

Mine is Hcigar too, but it doesn't look like that! ... but like I said, I have noticed that this is the "new look" for a lot of the recently produced Kayfun's. I love it, so I am jealous Keith! I am a total sucker for some finely machined stainless steel. :wub:

I still love mine, I can't be mad at a 1:1, but really the machining on the recent clones are actually better than on the authentic, as far as appearance IMO.

Laylel,

Oh god, no... I'm sure you are big boy/girl (not sarcasm) and know how to live your life. Just was sharing my vision of situations like this, nothing less or more.

I will not contact FC for same reason, they had to test all this stuff before they kick sale out, mistakes like this cast them sales=cost them money... you get what you pay for. I did spend 40 min of my time=$15 (if i pick up extra work) + what ever i did plan to spend there... At this point with this time consuming there product too expensive for me and i will not buy it, easy... I will be back and if FC will improve and be able to make my shopping comfortable i will buy from them.

Ok... All is good.....

I contacted Doris regarding the issue. If nobody does, then the problem will never get fixed.

Well I guess I'm (you?) in luck that I know how to machine stainless steel! Been working on my own design on a replacement body for the Nemmy, just using the end caps. Still in the research and development stage!

They say the way to a man's heart is thru his stomach.... And the way to a woman's heart is to cherish her..With Nikki, it's some finely machined stainless steel!

Oh the way to my heart is too definitely to CHERISH me ... and the way to stay in my heart is with finely machined stainless steel. :D TRUE STORY!! :laugh:

Keith, I did notice that you mentioned machining your own tube for your Nemesis, and my eye's did perk up believe me. First, I would genuinely like to see how your custom made tube works out when you are finished. And second, I was gonna wait a little while until I got to know you better before I start hitting you up for custom work. ;-)

That is awesome fivefour, it looked really good in the pics ... How is it vaping for you, and were your threads nice and smooth?

It vapes excellently, so good in fact I'm going to have to redo the coil in the Kayfun...I'm @ 0.8 ohm and need to be at about 1 ohm. I'm trying to run this VTC5 down to a manageable level but it's taking forever, too much power.

The threads are super smooth and the button will be after a break in period.

The only real issues I have are the locking ring gets stuck easily and the "rust" on the button engraving. I call it rust because I'm not sure what it is, hopefully when I get some polish it will come off.

It's the best $23 I have spent on vaping by far! I already want another to leave in 18350 mode with a Kayfun nano :)

I will definitely let you know and post some work from "KC Customs" ... lol

I have to buy a special tap and die for the metric threads so it all fits.

Oh, I know exactly what you mean about too much power ... been there done that. My switch on the Infinite also needed to be broken in when I first got it, it would stick a lot. I took the switch apart to bits, and scrubbed down all of the pieces with a tooth brush, and now its super sensitive ... too sensitive because the slightest brush of the switch makes it fire.

When I got this mod it was my intention to keep it in 500, and 350 mode .. it looks so slick in 350 w/Kraken, so I feel ya on that set up... I have some nano plans myself, but it for a KFL and Turtle Ship V2 :banana:

Keith has got some skills, love it ... from one creative person to another, I think that is so awesome that you are making your own custom mod tube. I hope it goes well for you too :)

ETA: I like the name "KC Customs", it has a nice ring to it.

Well, Just chiming in :D
Been on the wagon on purchases, but been watching. I have "gone in the black", saved more than I have spent, which from my signature is a lot. The last 7 months would have cost me over $2100 in cigs, and that is what I have spent "at this point", but I have lots of stuff to show for it, instead of cigarette butts. I will keep watching, but I have put my CC on hold for now, as I have enough stuff (gear, batteries, juice, wire, wick, carto's, etc.) to last for over a year. Might buy the shinny ever once in a while, but only if I really want it.

I'm still here watching Nikki :wub:

Vape On

Question about Aqua build if anyone knows.
All tutorial what i had seen show coil build pretty high from a base, that's what i had done - dual coil at 1.2Ohm. Vapor production, not sure how to describe, very soft, not i big clouds but exceptional taste, almost no throat hit. Same juice hit like truck on kayfun but taste is muted.

I wonder if i low coil position on Aqua - will it increase clouds and throat hit a bit with i bit of the lost of taste. I know best way to check is just do it, but i rebuild that coil 4 times today and wanna give it a brake. Now i position my coils same lvl where is connection to a posts.
