Nic`d Up in Oklahoma!
My clone showed up yesterday. Overall, Happy happy happy.
Here is my review from FT. I got the brass one.
The mod arrived undamaged, a real plus considering its got a glass cap included. mod does not have any clear coat on it, another plus as you don`t have to screw with it trying to remove it. Center pin sits a little low but with careful placement of coils is not a real problem, but be careful. Overall is was very clean, but I did wash it in Dawn just to be safe. My only serious complaint is the cap engraving, I was really looking forward to that "Complete Kennedy Experience", but alas the engraving is bad, it gets real soft towards the bottom and is a real eye sore. If you are looking forward to this too you may want to wait until they get all this bad engraving out of the supply chain. I did have to shim the o-ring on the switch with a piece of card board so as to get a little more throw, could use a slightly larger o-ring here. Overall though it is my newest favoritist mod and will put both my ABLE`s in the back seat for awhile. The switch is the most pefectist switch Iv ever used, it feels like it is as soft as mags, and works without any heat on a .2 build.
----------------------------------------------------------------

I guess I`ll chuck the crappy cap in the lathe and make a shorty out of it, remove the less then perfect engraving and paint it crackle black. :?) All my other caps fit so right now its wearing a 1:1 copper cap and my own hohm made fat delrin and looks good.

I`m still in the process of accepting that my acceptance level is going to be stressed with anything FT and that to save upword`s of 90% on some things certain adjustments must be made, LOLOLOL. ARGGGGGG!

Your findings echo mine, however my engraving is good. I have solved the switch issue with an additional o-ring, however I am disappointed that I needed anything.

So far I am really pleased. I haves saved over £150 do the sake of an o-ring but pics will follow.

I will look forward to see what your cap engraving looks like.
Here`s a pic of mine,,,,,

I will say this, this is the first clone Iv gotten where it made me realize I "could" justify the cost of an original once i can afford it. It may be the perfect all around vape mod for me, its power potential and size is perfectly matched. Well, at least until the next perfect mod comes along, LOL.

Keep in mind FT doesnt make anything.
They resell only.

One clone from a single manufacturer is not indicative of the quality of all clones or FTs offered products.

If the Ruby is a hit, expect other offerings from other cloners.
