Focalecig ... A new Fasttech??

[Nikkita6]

And so the Truth prevails again ... after the minor poop show that kicked off in this thread earlier, I noticed that yet again, another *other vendor* thread was started in this section, where the OP declared that the *other vendor* is legit.

Lo and behold, the thread was again deleted by ECF moderators reason *unregistered supplier*, although the OP was posing as a new member ... I knew I wasn't wrong about this, and so my suspicions were correct. Those two "new members" who posted here earlier are probably also frauds.

As Burnie would say, vape on!

Will put my purchase tomorrow. I have $50 atomizer budgeted, so, here's my plan:

Squape to replace my single coil AGA-T I use on my Vamo (my main atomizer/PV) $14.70

Fogger V4 To replace my Aqua Clone (dual coil) on my mech mod $32.34

That will be 47.04 I'll fill in the rest with stuff just so I don't have extra left on the gift card. (my "insurance" for overseas orders is not using a credit/debit card)

Got my nemesis mixed clone in from focale ecig this weekend. First mech mod ive ever used so im not exactly sure what to compare it to. Its got a nice amount of weight to it. Its a bit tricky to get the posts adjusted right to achieve a good feel of the firing button. If the botton's unscrewed too far, its wobbly and weird to push. Plus this super awesome little f'ing pin falls out which makes it almost impossible to unscrew the botton portion off the bottom. I have it adjusted finally where its working great. Is this a normal thing for the nemmy? Btw fasttechs tracking number still says "unable to find" since 4/16. Once again they told me to wait a few more days...

The most importing thing is to tighten the plus pole screw in switch unit. If you don`t do that the screw will get loose by the time. Then you loosen the adjustable plus pin in the top cap a bit, screw your atty on the top and screw the plus pin screw in untill it gets contact with the 510 of the atty. Now you have to find the needed tubes and screw the switch unit in as far as you can. Between bottom and locking ring should be a gap of min 1mm and max 3mm. Thats it.

I guess the Nemesis is so popular because you can set it together without having any gap between tubes - doesn`t matter what configuration you have.

Ring ring, the post girl arrived, with two FC shipments. The mixed Nemesis and the tobeco Kayfun Lite from GB

 

[funkyrudi]

Tobeco KFL and mixed Nemesis first check

Nemesis: Threads run good, all tube parts interchangable ( Npmpsis beauty ring thread didn`t fit to the top cap thread ), nearly no visible gap between the tubes, one switch unit needs work ( too rough ), one switch runs perfect, thread size is different ( as the Npmpsis too ) to the usual Nemesis threads, so hybrid kits for Kayfun will not fit , one tube is scratched because of missing bubble wrap, air holes in the golden air ring not on same level. Now I have 5 non thread compatible Nemesis, that`s too much, because I like to make the Kayfun 3.1 small.

Kayfun Lite: The threads run good, but are a little bit sharp, sanding is nice, smaller pole screws than the matte KFL, but long enough for fat kanthal, missing o-ring for the filling screw ( whether this will not leak ? ), drip tip seating very tight for other DTs, chamber+chimney+top cap construction as usual not compatible for nano kits.

and here they are




and here is a pic of the matte KFL + Npmpsis and a hybrid set with Kayfun 3.1 + hybrid adapter + nano kit + cheapo Nemesis ( 1st batch - thread compatible ) in 18350 mode



that makes the long 3.1 realy small, even with it`s long DT

Edit: what is the optimum size for pics?

 

[funkyrudi]

Another Taifun GT is out and when I can trust the pics, this seems to be the real baby. The top cap steam tube seem to be one unit. On the steam tube I can see two different "router pictures/marks" like the GTs from the first batch. But to be sure it would be nice to have a close up.

 

[GermZx]

Alrighty, my KFL has officially been shipped Now, we wait.

Edit: Cool i'm verified now.

 

[NealBJr]

I just want to say to the regular posters, and lurkers in this thread that I don't have a problem with casually mentioning other vendors in this thread, its something that all of us have done at one time or another, including myself.

But there is a big difference between saying " oh FT has thing, and FC doesn't" or " I bought this from 101vape", and posting that once some other vendor increases their inventory, they are going to be the new Fasttech, and bouncing.

Whoever that person was, they literally just joined this website, and had all of 10 posts (at the time), which ironically is the minimum post count needed to post in this section of the forum. I felt like the post was suspect, with shady intentions, and that is why I addressed it.

Those of us who post here regularly, often make reference to other vendors, especially when its relevant to a product we are discussing/questioning, and I find nothing wrong with that ... Coming in here with the sole purpose of mentioning/promoting another vendor is a horse of a different color, and I know that most of you know where I am coming from.

I don't mean to play devils advocate, but the thread name does kind of warrant a comparison between FT and FC. Perhaps a forum moderator should officially change the name to reflect it being a true FEC thread.

I had to buy the black and copper Nemesis off Focale, just looked the biz for me and another Nemesis to my collection

The Nemmy has a following as does the Caravela, Stingray, Origin etc etc, it will appeal to some whilst to others it may seem too plain or old skool, whatever else it does deliver and I am quite happy to just do a Pokemon with Nemmies and collect 'em all hehe

Sitting here right now with my brass Kraken atop a brass nemmy, all shined up and polished, chaplin DT atop, single 1.2ohm mesh and twisty wire coil and its just sooooo nice, I'm looking forward to trying out Focale's offering as it has a silver rice pin instead of the brass one and my all copper Hcigar Nemesis hits so hard its got virtually no volt loss at all and I have my newly dual micro coiled Kayfun clone of a clone Rocket atop that, a whole new ball game

The only disappointment is the Lotus RDA, I was expecting so much more from it, tried two coils, three coils, sub ohm and its still bleeeah, my SteamBoy for hit and flavour kicks it round the car park and then some lol BUT the Lotus does look crazy good and very bling with Focale's version a very very good copy if nothing else.

Peace out fellow vapers, I am back to bed with a film and waves to all me friends /wave

Ahaha, I do the same thing .. when I want to make online purchases I use a Visa gift, its a smart way to shop. Paypal also offers their own pre-paid debit card, but what I don't like is that there is a monthly regardless of whether you are using the card, so I don't see how that is beneficial. I would rather pay the 3-5.95 load fee once, and be done with it.

Looking forward to feedback on the Squape's, it supposed to be a stellar RBA when working properly.

I don't mean to play devils advocate, but the thread name does kind of warrant a comparison between FT and FC. Perhaps a forum moderator should officially change the name to reflect it being a true FEC thread.

I cannot argue with that, and I actually said a few months ago in this thread that I, in fact regret putting that FT comparison in the title ... but at the time, that is what it was to me. Hindsight eh?

But I will say that I think it is fairly obvious that this thread has evolved way beyond being a simple comparison discussion ... I mean, this is a 300+ page thread that contains nothing other than pictures, and posts regarding product/vendor questions, and reviews of actual customer experiences ...

and Cranky's late night video twerking.

Delboy my darling. I swear, you were the first person I thought of when Focal put up the new Copper Nemmy's, because I know you are an avid collector of them.

It is always a pleasure when you come and visit us dear ... and you owe me Harlequin vape narrative or two!

 

[NealBJr]

Ok... Just put up the orders.. we'll see how FocalEcig goes. I'm sure everything will be just fine, but still, new vendor (to me), new concerns.

Wow, just realized how much vape mail I have pending/on the way....

Fasttech, about a month ago, they just got the products in... they split the shipment, so that turned into two... so one KFL in one shipment, one ceramic tweezers in a second.
Mt. Baker VApor.. placed Sat 256ml.
Focal Ecig... Placed first order for the squape.
Fasttech, Placed an order for a Vamo wrap (for my old V3), Thrum Scissors for wicks, and the Fogger V4.
...ok.. putting the wallet down... must not touch... must not.. oooh.. shiny!

 

[Nikkita6]

**** NEW PRODUCT ALERT *****

Ok, I am starting to think that Doris may be psychic I just posted last night that I hoped that Doris would stock the stainless steel version of the Stingray, and today it was in new arrivals .. mind you, I had yet to tell Doris that I wished she would stock the stainless Stingray.

And it look MINT PEOPLE! You know that harsh back lighting rarely flatters the products, but not only is the switch and top cap design correct, THE MACHINING LOOKS AWESOME! Totally seamless in products pics, and that lighting usually causes the tube seams to look more pronounced, not less visible .. All I have to say is .. Doris, why oh why didn't you post this last night when I was "clickety clicking" the buy button on RBA accessories

Ah well ... where there is a Will, there is a way! I am just happy that they have it, and it looks good! IMO the stainless Stingray is better looking than the Brass.


Stingray Style Mechanical Mod - Silver SKU: 18776 - Price:$26.94 Free shipping (cheaper than FT)
