Got a pair of Nemeses from the group buy in the mail yesterday :) Pretty good, for $12, great. 18490 tube appears to have been made on a different lathe in a different factory for some other item, but whatever. These cost 2/5 what my hcig did.

Ugh, I hate when that happens. :glare: It always makes me wonder how they accomplished such a thing, to have to different finishes on one device? I guess you explained it, but it is so sad that some manufacturers are ok with putting that out. :facepalm:

That other place had 2 different wooden atomizers. Looked like they took the standard Kanger style single bottom coil replacement coil. Ugly designs IMHO but you might like one. I liked the dragon you got along with the other dragon design but decided against adding them to my wishlist there because focalecig has a number of atomizers I'd like and at this point my mods are outnumbering my atomizers about 2:1.

I really didn't need that second 4nine from the group buy but the brushed brass finish looks even nicer in person. Then I went completely overboard and got the Stingray X when it hit the USA warehouse. I don't feel too bad because it really does look nice and a kayfun looks great on it with the semi-hybrid adapter. Of course that means that the original design stainless steel Stingray it was on is now sitting here, alone, unused, poor thing ;)

They really have to do atomizer group buys, perhaps the Fogger or a nice Kayfun, in black please ;)

OMG, welcome to my life .. I love all of my mods, but every time I get new one, the older one's end up neglected :( ... I'm so ashamed :p

What's the general consensus on FC's cheap Stingray X (19804)? Or did everybody hold out for the nice one?

How much have heard anyone talk about it? TAN FEO :( Get the SXK version, trust me ... as per Doris, the next batch should arrive on Monday, and will probably be posted on Tuesday.

Ahaha .. halfempty, Nikki likes her porn big, just use imgur.com honey :) .. Your set up looks great of course, so ya see, stick with me and you will full on sexy in no time! :banana:

And thank you baby Jesus, you spared your nano of the dreaded "pliers" :laugh: So you didn't receive the little double ended screwdriver key chain that is a PITA to use?
No pliers - yet. It came with the very cute but fairly useless screwdriver and a little silica wick. No o-rings or screws, luckily I have both. Probably a good idea to get a dozen of those teeny little screws from Fat Daddy one of these days.

ETA: The imgur thing, don't need another cyber account (stubborn streak) just click on it, it gets bigger (non family oriented comments deleted).

Burnie, you are an OG in this thread, you don't need to buy anything to post, just come by so that I can hurl shameless teasing at you. :D You know it makes me happy :laugh:
I know, but you know me, I don't post a lot. ;)

As far as RBA suggestions, why not a Kayfun darling? Its rebuildable, there are ton of them to choose, and I think this new mech would look nice with one, and you could use one of the clear M-Tanks as well. :)
Yea I have been looking at the Kayfun's, thinking the 3.1 or Lite, don't know. Going to wait until the mod gets here and see what size topper looks best. In no hurry, not like I'm going to run out of something to vape. :D

Vape On

When it comes to Kayfun's, its always a good idea to have extra screws .. they saved me when it came to the Ivogo KF mini, the screws on that thing are miniscule :blink:

And of course I clicked the pic, but its not big enough :glare: You need a Pow Pow mister!

In defense of Otto, for those of us who may use the mod more forcefully than others (abuse), and may not want something that looks too good to be stuck in a pocket and maybe scratched up, or don't want the recessed top cap, 19804 seems to be a viable device. Wonder what the quality of construction is like?

Translation: I was looking at that one too :)

I know you don't honey, its just that I don't like to leave you unacknowledged for too long is all :) ... Ok, ok, Nikki will stop trying to force you out of lurk mode :oops:

I have both 3.1, and KFL, I love them all, and so long as you pick the right one's, I believe you will love them too. ;-)

:laugh: I will come down just to see that!^ :banana: But first I have to change Burnie's life, then swing over to Miami to ruin halfempty's :laugh:

And Nikki doesn't do public nudity, but I will enjoy your nekked fanny packed-ness though :lol:
As long as you don't plan to open a vape shop near me, you're welcome to try :D

Ok well, yeah, get it for a beater .. because my criticism of it is purely aesthetic, it has nothing to do with how it actually functions. The quality of the construction appears to be thick and clunky :laugh:

But it should hit hard, as the SXK does, so for purely functional purposes, sure, go for it. :)

If I ever make porn worthy of grandioseness (is that a word?) I will consider it.

No pow pow, I may like it too much :D

Thick and clunky can be fun sometimes ;)

:laugh: If that happens, you should just surrender your wallet from jump, cuz its a wrap honey! :banana:
I would be doomed, I would have to give up vaping or move :p

Yeah I likes me a beater. Hey Nikki, how much would someone have to pay you to put that SXK in the same pocket as your keys? I'm sorry, shouldn't joke about that.

Really I'm sniffing around about 19804 because it's tonight's instakill which I was trying not to tip you guys off about. But there's the cat out of the bag, so to speak.

Wow, all I can say is that stingray x is sexy. Same size as my 4 nine and that suprised me. The only thing is I cannot seem to get the top cap off so I can use the hybrid cap. I think someone must have glued it.....LOL

But even with the standard top cap it hits hard and was suprised to see that it is the same size as my 4 nine. The fire switch works nicely and with ease, with a short throw and does not wobble without the locking ring! YAY!

One of my better buys over the last few months!!
Also I love the drip tip. I am partial to wide bores and this one does not disappoint, not to mention, I love the copper ring at the bottom. I am using my quasar at the moment on it but I want to get a copper ring for my zenith to use on it or a copper tobh.
