I got a copper nemmy to hold me off until I do see a clone of the LE Red Copper.
Actually I ordered two. The other is waiting - fast tech.
This one is from Venerable vaping (I brushed the tubes myself - it came polished).

Hope my FT copper nemesis machining marks aren't too deep as I plan to polish.
I see angel survived, what did you brush w/; 600 grit?

I'm a little on the fence about the FT one.
But, for half the price I paid for this one... I just couldn't help myself.

This one from Venerable vaping came polished.
Also the only one I've seen with a copper switch base ;)
And one big silver plated spring.
I brushed it with green scouring pad.
I've brushed it a few times already.
Sorry for the bad pic - this was right out of the box and my finger prints on it.

What's that Eazy-E Eazy Duz It juice? Can I pick some of that up or is it only for Real Muthaphu@@in G's?

I gotta git me sum of Dat... Cuz da Boyz-n-the-hood are alwayz hard!

Just noticed they make the Eazy Duz It with a splash of menthol too. I think I might try that one. Eazy Duz It on Ice!

Also since it's Ruthless too bad they don't have a Bone Thugs - n - Harmony flavor (can't think of any other ruthless artists off the top of my head)

There's no clones yet cause the authetics aren't even out lol. Pretty sure they are waiting to get their hands on one to compare before releasing

Why? There's no mystery to it. It's a plain ol copper tube with the Stingray engraving. So they make it with copper instead of brass or SS.

What's the transit time with fasttech now lately? I want a black anodized tube. Also do they have the nemesis switch pins?
Transit time depends on carrier. I've been using China Post E-packet for all my latest and have been getting them in 10 days from acceptance (to VA).
I ordered the black tube set as well - ship date says 3/18.
They do not have have Nemmy switch pins (your talking about the little keyway right?).

Mmm 10 days better when the typical 3 weeks to a month... Guess that epacket is faster then the USPS option?

They shipped my black anodized tubes in 2 days (stated 5), been 3 since and still in China. I also used the China Post option, which served me well with Desire Ecig. On a similar note, my brass stingray was also shipped 3 days early.

As for the switch pin, you can use a small coat hanger, a large paper clip, or a 5/16 brass rod (hobby store). A toothpick also works in a pinch. Good luck!

Does the firing pin and hot pin from other nemmies fit Venerable vaping copper nemmy?

I ask because FT $18.50 nemmy has odd ball silver plated pin threads. My other nemmies all take standard M5-0.8 bolts.

I like polished, I like copper pins, I like copper switch body, I like mix and match compatibility w/ SS hcigar.

Any peeps have opinion on best copper nemmy. Hcigar, venerable vape, etc???

Jonesing for some copper till I can find a copper ray. Black or polished Cu, don't care so long as engravings fairly deep.

I have exactly the same questions. It's probably a good thing I can't afford even the cheap FT stuff
at the moment. Better to wait and gather data.
Still collating..... <---that's a weird word when you see it typed and not spoken

Don't fret on the $18.50 nemmy. It is the purdyesst 18650 nemy I have. Thanks to da beauty belt. Have not polished the "polished" button yet. I was able to tune lock ring gap w/ 2013 FT nemmy 650 extension; normally I make custom M5 pins to adjust gap. I polished switch post, magnetized and did the nemmy shim. It works great. Button fits loose like all FT nemmies.

I gave my gf my stingray clone since I'm using the authentic, the brass pin in the clone worked just fine but it was short. I sacrificed one of my nemmy clones pin to use for it since it was longer, I guess for a peace of mind lol

I thunked ray had a slider pin and nemy has a threaded pin?
