I looked at that listing, it doesn't list any dimensions. What size tank will fit on this? I sit easy to use? Thanks in advance!

Oh, oops! I thought you were referring to sump'n else, misswish!



The RX75 referenced above might be worth taking a look at, Mr. Jones :)

Not a side by side, but it is recessed a bit.

Agreed. Not a true SBS, but nevertheless a pretty damm nice mod! We've got 4 between us, and use them a LOT.

I'd also recommend a XVOstick,,, if you can find one anywhere.


@dplongo and @Katdarling, so, how much do you like the CF 18650? My last two CFs are dying, and I'm wondering if it is a good option for replacement.

PM incomin'!

Ditto on the Xvostick. You can even snag a decent clone over at FT.

The Knight V1 is a great SBS, and they've announced the Knight V2. The V1 is heavy, but sturdy!

I like it, even WITH my "tilted" 510 connector. I think it makes it somewhat unique. ;-)

Overall though, my favorite CFIV is still the first one. It's lighter, a bit smaller, and I just have always loved that exact model. I still use mine pretty much daily, although never heavy use.

The 18650 is a close 2nd, but not QUITE "there".

Shawn of Hoefer, "decent" "clone" and "XVO" do not belong connected in a sentence, IMLTHO. :facepalm:

I love the tilt!!! Suits me just fine!

But yes, I will agree. I appreciate the aesthetics of the original CF4 over the one with the 18650 swappable.

Hand feel and all that there.

Hmph... got one here. Fits my 22 mm tanks just fine (currently fitted with a matching Kayfun Lite Plus). fires up to 40 watts. Does accurate TC on Ni200. Reads down to .1 ohms. Does not ask after new atty every time I power it on. Does not rattle. Charges when I need it to (but I typically swap). Durable anodized finish. Has not exploded.

Differences include stainless buttons, and I think the screen is slightly different (position). Oh, and it costs lots less.

What constitutes a decent device if not this?

With the recent proliferation of decent, affordable, stable TC devices on the market, and a fair number of DNA 40 devices coming down into the reasonable range, I have a hard time recommending a mod that, when available, costs in excess of $120.

Would you mind picking six lottery numbers for me? You done GOOD!!!

The differences between ours, performance wise, left me in a very, very bad emotional state (I was VERY hopeful for it when we ordered them).

I SO wanted to like my clownstick. I couldn't. Unlike you, I got a message every third vape or so. I could never get it to work in power mode well, so I was afraid to try it in TC. Admittedly, it did charge from the USB unlike the Xvostick, but that is not a high priority. I'm glad yours works well Shawn. It is my understanding that you are one of the lucky ones.

Ya know... maybe it's just me... I had an eVic VT for months and months... never an issue. I passed it along, and the new owner killed it in a week. I had a Hana DNA40 clone... never an issue. I passed it along, the new owner killed it in a week. Every mod I've ever had has operated as expected... until I pass it along. Then it dies... I have personally only had 10 mods out of the 169 I have owned quit... a Kbox 40 got soaked in juice (oops), I shorted a K1000 epipe, a Kamry 60 TC mini has some issues, and 7 ego pens have died...

Perfectly captured, and our EXACT experiences.

Shawn, please? Lottery numbers. ;)

Seriously though, I too am THRILLED that you got one that works well. :thumbs:

hey @gerrymi ...

when I made that list I was going with little internal-battery 'box' mods

I just kinda let the " T-18 " slip in (because a cousin of T22)

it is just a wonder there is SO MANY of them lil boogers flooding the market at-this-time

if ya can't swap the battery / adjust the output power / & maybe TC - it no interest me no more :yawn:
{ a lanyard sits HIGH on my list too } :D

glad ya found and using something ya like :)
