Is my Vision Spinner II a fake?

[dms25]

Purchased a few days ago. At first I thought the logo looked cheaply done, but the build quality seems ok.
Today after the light went red I got about 4 hits from it before it was completely empty. Vaped less then 4ml on a full charge.
Can anyone tell if it's a fake?
Thanks!

Looks real to me from the pictures you provided. Your vape time seems about right I usually got around 4ml from mine(depending on my volts setting)

The box it came in should have a serial number on it for authenticity verification , so you can verify it on their site

I have two Spinners - both authentic and both have the exact same logos as yours. Tip on charging - when my battery turns blue I'll put it on the charger and after the light on the charger turns green (about 20-30 minutes) I have to take the battery off the charger and put it back on for the battery to charge to it's fullest capacity (about another 45 minutes to an hour).

On VV ego style batteries I recommend setting it to 4.2 volts for a full, complete charge. With ny limited experience with the spinners though is that one of the volt options is 4.3, so I would leave it a bit below that.

It looks real to me, and I've purchased 8 Spinners...some for family, friends and a few for me. If it's working well, why do you doubt it's authentic?

Looks exactly like mine and mine are verified legit.

Yours doesn't seem to have the real CE logo on it, as far as I can see the CE logo on yours is the one chinese manufacturers use instead of CE because they haven't gotten CE rating from EU.

Edit: I have absolutely no clue wheter the real deal has the same fake CE marking on it or not

 

[Maiar]

It's got the same CE logo that mine does...

I'd double check my other one, but I'm not entirely sure where it is at the moment lol.

 

[Maiar]

On another note. I absolutely love that orange color. Jealous lol.

When I was lookin at ego batteries it was very difficult for me to choose. Before ebay cracked down on vaping gear, there would be tons of adds for Vision Spinner 2s.

The cheapest I saw was something like $14.50 shipped with a charging adapter. That can't be right.

I also saw some for 18, some for 25, and on actual vaping web sites $34.99.

I was too skeptical that a web site could probably get away selling the $14 spinner for $34. I really wanted a tube mod because the MVP2 was just too big in my opinion.

Then I got an eleaf istick for 35 bucks, and have been completely satisfied with it. The 30w is even better made. Should get you 2 full days on a single charge, and isn't tall like the spinner that would stick out of a shallow pocket when you put a tank on it.

You just have to be careful that the tanks you're using can handle higher power since the istick is wildly inaccurate in regards to what voltage or wattage it's pumping out since it uses mean instead of RMS. Which, in my opinion, is completely stupid and it should run in RMS so you know what it's doing and you can set it to the power you want.

You are correct in regards to the iStick 20w. The iStick 30w is the same price, but is tuned to RMS, and has a list of other improvements. Despite the flaws of the 20w, I loved mine and still use it today.

Before lurking on these forums and knowing just how common clones and counterfeit devices actually were, I bought two Vision Spinner IIs from Ebay. They were from a Chinese seller and I was able to get two Vision Spinner IIs + two Protank knockoffs for a total of $29 (free international shipping). I actually ended up only paying $19 because the original listing only had one battery and I asked the seller if I could buy a second for $10 and he agreed, so I sent another $10 via Paypal. The seller ended up never claiming that $10 and it was restored back to my Paypal account.

The Vision Spinner IIs were undoubtedly counterfeit, especially considering the price I paid. However, they both still worked as good as could be expected... at first. They even had the color-changing LED to show battery life and the locking VV spinner.

The first thing I noticed was after about 3 weeks of use that the battery life was considerably shorter. When I first got it, it would last my whole work day plus most of the night... By week three, it would be dying right at the end of my work day. I was even charging it as soon as I could after the light turned yellow, as the manual suggested (my other egos I used them till they were dead).

Mine completely stopped working at about week 5. The light still lights up when you press the button, but it doesn't power the atomizer. I assume it's something with the connector. My girlfriend's is still working fine.

For the price I paid for two batteries and two tanks (along with replacement atomizers, extra drip tip, few extra random pieces) I really can't complain, when in reality I basically paid $5 for each item.

Looks just like the ones my brother in law has, but the price he paid is too good to be true. I have seen fakes made by Boge that have Vison name stamped right on it with the same CE mark but for 14.97. The real Vison Spinner I seen was 35-40$ and the button was different looking. There was a YouTube video I saw and you cant really tell a differnce in them unless side by side. Im thinking or even ordering the clone one for 15$ cause theres no way my brothers is genuine. He got 2 of them and came with a Kager Pro Tank 2 but it wasnt a real Kangertech I know 100% leaked bad but got him a good Kangertech one now and hes going to try to find replacement orings for the fake ones to stop the leaking and use the real Kanger coils thats way better then the cheap ones that came with them.
Also someone told me that the CE mark does not make it real and some real ones dont even have them on it. I know my Kanger EVOD is real and it dont have no CE mark but my real Mini Pro Tank 2s do.
But the light is white for 100%-60% charge then blue under 60% and then orange under 30%. 4 vapes once it turns orange or you said red? should be orange never heard of one thats red? Thats not many vapes for 30% of battery its a 1600mah but the one I am using did last 24 hours before turned orange and got about 4ml of liquid vaped on 2.2 heads out of 4 differnt Mini Pro Tank 2s so that sounds good

Thats the price my brother in law paid with two knockoff Pro Tank 2s that leak bad but the batterys are good, I dont think they are real Vision but work good still, one of the chargers was bad also. He gave 30$ for two batts and two PT2s plus two chargers but to a friend that got them for him...
