For the record, I have ZERO intentions of rocking this Red Manhattan with this atty. This is just so Nailz and Art can see it with a 22mm atty, and it looks just fine ...

    Oh my god, they look fantastic. If they vape half as good as they look I will be totally satisfied with them. Even if they do not work at all, they are worth the money on looks along. Doris better get ready, because once your formal review goes to press she is not going to be able to keep these in stock. The guy over on the main FC site that bought them "things" with the coated threads and all needs to see these.
    Nikki, I will have to say that you and Doris did a superb on picking these mods for the US warehouse. For sure a Mission accomplished well.
    Now I have to find your next Mission. I have to decide on what my next "want" item is going to be.
    THANK YOU

    See this is the downside of a job well done ... people always find more work :laugh: As I have said before Porter, this was actually your call, I just found them, and then sent Doris to get them. So I am the one who should be thanking you because this Red Manhattan is the bomb! And I am with you, I seriously don't know if I will use this to vape because it is that nice, and I don't want this gorgeous finish to change. So this may very well be a "Porn only" mod for me.

    I have decided that I will have to find a gold or brass topper for this, but I have no clue what that will be. It has to be a very sexy and/or complimentary aesthetic. Maybe I will get a gold/brass Plume Veil? I have zero interest in that atty for vaping, but it has nice clean lines, and is not too big, or too small.

    *ALSO* Take notice of the Acerig logo on the box .. that A with a slick C is their logo, not the Ameravape logo. So this is one definite way to identify the Acerig versions. The other versions not made by Acerig come with a pouch and/or a cloned box with the AV logo.

    Hey Nikki, it looks fantastic, thanks!

    BTW, can you or anyone tell me how group buys work? I am interested in the mini nemesis but I am not sure...is it like a pre-order? There is a clock counter, will them ship after clock reaches 0?:confused:

    Yes, a Group Buy is like a pre-order, with a pre determined ship date. See the individual item for all details, and make sure that you read everything on the product page before ordering.

    No worries Kaiser Bob, Doris placed another order for a lot more Red, errrhm, like Nikki tried to tell her the first time :rolleyes:
    Didya get to say "told you so" ;)

    On the Nemi, mini Nemesis, front. Group buy, all copper including accents (lock ring and top cap) for under $14. Just in case anyone was pondering a Nemi and didn't want to spend much. I have a copper with stainless accents that I bought for $20 that I like, I'm sure this one will be nice too.

    Yeah, she might as well order more red ones NOW...:laugh:
    When I first saw the red, I was afraid that it would have that eGo rubberized texture. Whew, I'm glad they didn't go there and that you're pleased with it. :)

    ...poor NIkki... so many toys, so little time...

    haha did a quick Google image search and the TOBH on it made me think "Boy, pull your pants up!" :laugh:

    Doris ordered more Red and Copper last night .. although she still seems to need convincing that the Red is a smart choice. But both blue colors are mint too, the dark and the light. I usually don't care for colored gear at all, but Acerig did such a bang up job on this anodizing which is so unique looking and feeling. Its gorgeous to touch and look at.

    I am totally pleased with the Red, it is even better than I had hoped :) But I still have to vape it though to see how it hits, I will be borrowing Nailz's glove :laugh:

    Damn so many mods out my cart is up to 200 bucks. :( my fingers almost pushed that checkout button but my brain said no. Then my ears will hear it soon. But..........but I will get them soon. Hehe.

    Nikki,
    That red is hot. Maybe a rose gold Kayfun would match.

    It is soo hot! I am game for a gold Kayfun, but I would want nano to keep the size down. I prefer a tank, but may have to go with a dripper.

    You naughty brit you! Well, at least you will get the Manhattan fast :D

    I am naughty, but thought I have been so good not ordering anything for a few weeks, so I deserved a double order :laugh:

    Thinking I should get Manhattan early next week, and then the Paragon late the following week if lucky, not to concerned if the Paragon takes it's time, got it for work, so not really the wow factor for it, but I could be surprised and change my mind when it does turn up.

    I don't like the Poseidon :( But I would may be down for a TOBH or Plume Veil though in gold/brass .. or get authentic Kayfun Maklaron tanks because they have deep true red. Ugh decisions :p

    Yeah I don't like it either, i just was looking for something red to top yours. Since I ordered the black Manhattan I most probably will get a black Tobh for it. Or at least I wish...

    I'd go with the black magma over the TOBH, I have 3 TOBH's, and they are sitting collecting dust since I got my magma, magma is far superior IMO

    You know, if you're just going for money shots, you could just cover a clear tank (the freebie that you already have) with colored transparent vinyl, like the nerdy young hipsters use for car light tinting - comes in tape rolls or sheets on eBay, around $5 (enough for a BUNCH of tanks). I looked into those authentic tanks, and jeez, they cost more than the atty! :shock:

    Ghetto Fabulous tip #37. :laugh:

    Anodizing doesn't affect the finish of the surface, it pretty much just colors it. If there's a nice texture its because Acerig chose to finish it that way before the anodized finish. So they rate higher marks for thinking through their product fully. I've been impressed with the few other items they've made recently. Fully as nice as the recent SXK products.

    Just how much effort does the Manhattan switch require? It looks really nice and its 24mm so if it was in copper it might look OK with either the blue or gold Taifun. And then I'd have a non 22mm mod, since it'd take a whole lotta duct tape on my 17mm Nemi to get it to 23mm ;)

    ^ This shade of blue is so pretty. I can see black, brass and SS working with it.

    You're gonna love touching your Black Manhattan, you just wait! :p I can't wait until someone else gets their so they can confirm that I am not the only crazy who loves the way the finish feels. Art and Portertown will hopefully have theirs tomorrow.
