Not sure about the Genitanks, I think they are chrome plated copper. Normally this would be a great long lasting combo, but I get a little nervous about plating in atomizers. It should be OK in a genuine Kanger though. The top cap design is not as manly as the Mega, that's a plus or a minus depending on your point of view :)

Another thing you should be aware of is that you are limited in drip tips on the SS Mega. Don't know about the Genitank or the Giant, but in the Mega the drip tip hole is not very deep. Most of my tips bottom out leaving a 1mm gap between the base of the tip and the top cap.

Chrome plated copper :ohmy: Now that I look at the pics again, it does have that chromed look, no thanks :facepalm: I want SS atomizers only .. Not a big deal about the drip tip situation on the Mega, the Giant fits whatever drip tip I put on it, but I have only tried two. I am ok with the standard one though.

The standard one is a little long and phallic looking for me. I see why you like it ;)

hi, excellent review, Nikki, about your loved Mr X (oh, sorry, not mister, but sir :D )
deep detailed, and the photos are pure art. i wonder you ever worked as photographer.. thanks and congrats!

i only missed one thing, which is important for me, in order to have the chance to use 18650+kick.. have you checked that it really has different tube and cap thread measures than previous sr, like you heard time ago?
some people are saying it is M20 x 0.5 x 5 threads, like old versions (except the switch, which is M18 x 0.5, like old too).
have you tried to exchange tubes and top caps from both versions?

mines (one from ft, "Waiting to be Packaged", after 14 days, and the cheap one form fc, "Collecting Products Now", after 10 days) will take long to arrive..
will order the sxk from fc soon. haven't seen one yet in person, but love it virtually..

Any cool new stuff dropped on there lately?
Haven't really been on here or there lately. Just got a vapor shark rdna and love it
besides I have a problem with my unit which blows a fat one.....:(.

Hey Tamer! I miss looking at your avatar :D .. Wait, so what unit are you having a problem with? Your vaporshark or something else? FC has a Copper Manhattan up in the China warehouse, and there are some Manhattan's on the way to the US warehouse.

After many FT purchases, decided to order a KFL+ V2 from focalecig just to compare shipping speed haha. FT been really fast for my last 5 purchases under the free epacket shipping to california. 7 days max to me.

Its a very good atomizer you will like it, and it looks sexy too in Nano mode.

Hi Haku my darling, how are you? :) I have never "worked" as a photographer, but just as it is with video, I have long since been a lover of photography, especially black and white. In fact, 90% of the photographs of myself in my plethora of portfolios, I shot myself. Same with video, and the gazillion GIF images on my visitors page, I shot all of those myself. There is no end to what one can do with a tripod and camera timer :D

And you are right my friend, until you said it, I didn't realize that I did not cover kick compatibility, or thread compatibility with prior version .. damn. But to answer your question, the X has 20x.5 and I did cross check compatibility with my other SR's and they are all interchangeable. The X is kick compatible for genuine Evolv kicks in 350 and 500 mode. FT is selling extra tubes for a kick in 650 mode. :D

I only expect the line for the X to get longer ... Doris just told me that the X stock for Germany sold out in 1 hour.

i'm ok, thank you, just a bit busy. hope you are doing great (well, i do know that you are doing great when reading your posts..). that's the problem about your commitment with this thread: you have to look after it permanently, while we can disappear for long and haven't to answer questions. my admiration and gratitude for your dedication and support, once again.

so you haven't dedicated to photography professionally.. but you have the heart and the eye of a photographer :thumb:

i've ordered 6 x 21mm sr extension tubes lol. for my 2 old sr, for my new 2+1 new sr, and one spare. these tubes give you a flexible play not only for kicks but also for dealing with batteries length.
will order the sr x this week, from china warehouse. i don't mind to wait 2-3 weeks.

got the ivogo kayfun mini. definitely, i love every kayfun (with permission of the taifuns). plenty of flavor and dense vapor in such slim thingie.. i've liked it so much, that i'll invest in the mini nemi and a pair of 14500 batteries :blush:

I hate that you are having trouble with the button on your VaporShark rDNA30.
I received one on Monday of this week and so far I have not had any problems. I noticed you said in the video that the button did not have a clickly feel to it. Mine for sure gives a positive click when it is pressed. Sounds like you got a bad button. Hopefully they will get it fixed or replaced for you quickly.

Plenty of people have commented in the mini Kayfun thread that they are getting a better vape with the mini compared to their full sized Kayfun. So you're in good company ;)

I have the Tobeco version and its a great vape too. I paid as much for it as the Ivogo version. Wish I'd gotten the Ivogo because I can't use the clear tank section in the standard 2 section setup because its the same diameter as the metal tank sections although it works fine as the middle section in the long configuration. I use 50/50 and higher VG juices, a few people have said it works for them but I'm guessing they're using 100% PG juice.

Oh please do remind of this juice again come Thursday ... seriously, and thank you :D .99 for 15ml, I will love it even if its yucky :laugh:
Here's the preliminary posting from the owner of Killer Juice, lists flavors but not price, some will be $1.99 instead of just 99¢ and doesn't list limits. They will show 0 available until the sale goes live at noon their time. I don't know where they are located, I'm sure their site will show an address so you can figure out which time zone. Sometimes one or more of the flavors are experimental, he's looking for feedback on taste basically, so of limited quantity. I put the link to the main Killer Juice thread also, hopefully pointed at the appropriate posting.

Just going to leave this here...

Chocolate Raspberry
Dark Chocolate
Glazed Raspberry Jelly Filled Donut
Sour Green Apple
Swedish Fish
Apple Cinnamon
Juicy Fruit
RED BULL WINGS
Cherry
Edit: Located in MI, which would be central time zone I'd guess.

got my sxk stingray, thing is lovely, i mostly love the size of the thing, it's by far my smallest 18500 mod...the only thing that doesn't work on it so far is my kayfun clone which only seems to work on my nemesis

had some fun with it at work today....i vape at my desk a bit but dont' release vapor, the button stuck a bit and i had a nice cloud at my desk that i had to try and make go away as quickly as possible, had a nice inner chuckle to myself

Funny that you just got the iVOGO Kayfun Mini, I actually did a review of it, and its posted, but the owner of the site has scheduled it to publish on 8/14 :blink: Why, I am not sure? The Kayfun Mini is a high demand item right now, so it would make sense to me to publish it now, but whatever *shrugs* I was initially thinking of the 14500 Nemmy for the KF mini, but I am actually leaning towards the Ego Mega 1200mah VV for it. But I also enjoy it on the DNA30 too.

lol, this thread is a "commitment" but hopefully folks will understand that I am haven't been around quite as much as I am used to, I am plenty busy these days with a fair amount of stuff in my review que as P.Busardo would say.

Wow, you ordered 6 of those spare tubes eh? Haku I get the sense that you are a man who likes to be prepared for everything ;-)
