Infinite magma vs original

[cracoucax]

As the owner of an original Magma who just received an Infinite clone I must say... There is virtually no difference with the original, in fact on my original the top cap threads are a bit of a pita because it's always difficult to find the first thread when closing it, well the threads are perfect on the Infinite.

Engraving is the exact same quality and finish, exact same weight and feel in hand and everything. I don't think I'd be able to tell them apart if the Infinite didn't have a brass airflow ring. Oh yeah the screws are a bit different on the clone, they look more durable.

I like hearing that. Usually not a clone user, but I just ordered an infinite magma yesterday. Supposed to be delivered tomorrow.

I was holding an authentic in a Vape shop the other day and looking at my fake.

Really close. Really, really close. Darn near indistinguishable.

Infinite is right down the street from paradigm, supposedly... maybe that has a lot to do with it.

On one hand it's great that good quality gear is available so cheap, on the other hand I kind of regret spending the $100+ on my real magma now that the clone is available, especially since you note that the threads are so good on the clone, my real one takes a few tries to catch the first thread just like you mention.

Although I guess I just don't use my Magma that much which is probably why I regret spending money on it, it falls into a limbo area between tanks and drippers which seems to have the worst qualities of both. Like a tank it's more difficult to change flavors, but like a dripper you have to deal with a bit of leaking and a juice capacity still lower than a true tank.

Well, at least we authenticate real magmas based on their crappier threads

How big is the hole on the deck on the authentic? I'm really curious as to this.

Same size, about 2mm i'd guess.

But the flavor man, it's good !

Size of air outlet is <2mm for sure..I think it's closer to 1.5mm on infinite..and inlet is 3mm. It pushed me into lung hits, but it's a bit tight for me..been worthless since I finished moving in...a lot of my tools are MIA too.

All my attys have sprung leaks on me all the sudden.. and I only use a 4nine currently..bad. Hopefully teflon will work until I figure something better out.

The authentics seem to suffer in the QC depth compared to to the clones.

If you want to save about 15 dollars and don't mind the wait the FT version is just as good.

I really love this thing. Great all arround Atty.

 

[cracoucax]

Yes the initial run of the Magma had even more QC problems. Got the second batch but it still could be better.

 

[suspectK]

Are there more of these threads going on? Why am I asking.

Infinite..that's a rather large hole..came from nowhere.

that one deserves to be sent back to the retailer.... material flaw in the stock

 

[suspectK]

Lol...I got 2 a couple of months before infinite pumped them out to bigger vendors. No chance I'll get anything back for it. You can see a ring on the right side.. goes all the way around. The other one is still fine..maybe seller touched it up with something, so I wouldn't notice... there's only one hole. It's dirty from 510 leaking.

Maybe I can email them..cuz when infinite gets it right, they blow it out of the park...though, the 4nine really upset me, and I never bought one, but I'm a supporter.

[cracoucax]

So the hole appeared just like that ?? That's crazy, i suppose that would be a pretty huge impurity in the SS alloy ?

Looks good, not sure if there are several cloners of the Magma anyway.
It's a pity most places don't list the manufacturer of clones. You're left hoping or guessing by comparing prices which of course has obvious problems. But hey clones gotta have their downsides i guess.

This clone has welded posts for better conductivity and durability. I got a winner

So you don't have the silly white block between the posts ? This thing eats space in the well...

I just bought this one also,the last one it looks like,, saw a Magma in a new B&M that had the white block in the middle, they wanted 40$ for it , other than the plastic piece the steel was nice,
