Interesting. Looks like a simplified Zero. I actually like that the firing button is below the adjustment buttons. That's the one complaint I have with the focalecig Zero clone, other than price, is the button layout. I find I keep hitting the plus button, in particular, when I'm wanting to fire the mod. With them reversed like on the linked mod that's much less likely to happen. Although I agree with the previous comment, up towards the top of the mod where the 510 connector is located makes more sense to me too rather than below the display.

Yes I saw they added that, I would of grabbed it if didn't already have one, it's the only mech I still use daily now a days, had no problems at all with mine ;)

If I sell one of the attys I have in the classies, I do have to have the black X :). Or when I get paid again next month.

Black SRX is tempting... but, I'm thinking I need to ease back on the mod acquisitions. At the end of October I had three mods. I have nine now with six more on the way. I'm thinking 15 is probably a reasonable amount. Of course, 20 is a nice round number. :facepalm:


LOL....then 25......then 30...... :D

Definitely agree. Although 30 is rounder. ;)

Just decided to count up what I need to take pics of: 5 iStick, 2 robbot ZNA 30 clone, 2 full sized and 1 mini Hana clones (from focalecig) and a Zero. Copper Cartel, Nemesis, white Lancelot, white Stingray X, black Stingray X, stainless steel Stingray X and an Oros. Brass Cartel, 4nine Turtle Ship V2 special edition and 2 Poldiac with stainless steel shirt and pants. Stainless steel 4nine, Turtle Ship V2 special edition and Gus Lord. Colored stainless steel mods: Purple 4nine, black 4nine, black Stingray (not X). Aluminum Purple Colonial and dripper, purple Manhattan, purple Nemesis with switch from stainless steel Nemesis, red Nemesis with switch from black chrome Nemesis and black Nemesis with switch from brass Nemesis. Two 14500/14650 Nemi (mini Nemesis) in stainless steel with copper/golden accents, a copper Nemi and an Ivogo baby Nemesis (17mm). Atomizers: Fogger V4 (various sub versions) in black, blue, golden and purple, Artemus black edition Kayfun lite in black, stainless steel and copper, various other Kayfun lite V2 clones in stainless steel and black, Heron in stainless steel in logo'd and logo less and black PVD, Squape Reloaded in stainless steel logo'd, logo less and AC logo, Rose V2 stainless steel in brushed finish by Pallas and polished finish by whomever focalecig sourced it from, Sat22 in white and blue, Vulcan in white, the purple colonial mod dripper (standard 3 post 2 air holes in cap with juice well design), Lancia, 3D, Taifun in black, golden and stainless steel, logo'd and logo less and the sandblasted finished D'Eagle. I'm sure I'm forgetting things like the P22 and a couple of Sigelei mods and who knows what other atomizers. Then there are the bottom feeders like the Reo Grand and 14500 mini and 3 Phidias.

Good thing I'll have lots of picture taking time ;)

spokane, wa

That for sure is not a SX350, the oled is set up wrong and it has a dial meter not found on the SX350. And im 99.9% for sure it is not a Yihi board at all, they do make 20 or so different boards but that is not one of them. So I would steer clear of that one, the one on FT is a Yihi its the SX300.

Got my iStick yesterday, man is this thing tiny! :) It looks nicely made but.... the 510 hole was drilled and tapped at a slight angle, when I screwed my fogger or dripper on it's tilted and there is a gap on one side at the bottom, this doesn't effect function but it's annoying. The micro usb charge connector does not line up with the hole milled in the base, because of this I couldn't use the cable that was sent with it, I have three others and found one that will fit but it's a very tight fit. So tight I'm worried either the cable end or the port connector might break eventually so that's something I'll have to fix by taking it apart. The instruction manual is useless so I went to their website only to find the same manual online, I had to watch youtube videos to figure out how it works and that's just not right. I still don't know what the amp limit is for charging, I'd like to use one of my bigger amp fast chargers but don't want to damage it so I'll have to slow charge off my computer to be safe.

Other then those issues I really like it, fit's nicely in my hand, it's stealthy for use in the public and should last a long time between charges. I used it for six hours yesterday on clearo's, the fogger and the plume and last night the battery icon finally came off full charge by one tiny notch. I got this one from Central Vapors for $22 shipped during the Black Friday sale and they threw in a free charge cable due to the over sales and wait time which makes up for the downfalls, would I pay $35 for one? No! Not until they have better quality control and supply a user manual that actually tells you how to use it.
