Well I did it! I picked up the JA victoria. Got a great deal on it at vape fx and scored serial number 37.
Pros:
1. The brushed finish on the mod is different than any other mod Ive seen. Its brushed two different ways its hard to explain but it looks like its done in a X pattern which is very interesting.
2. The magnetic button is the best Ive felt, short, smooth, and no wobble. You can push the button anywhere and it will fire which is also nice.
3. The lock ring is brass and doesn't even require 1 full turn to lock or unlock which makes the process very fast.
4. The threads on the device are all smooth, consistent, and feel of quality.
5. The engraving on the device is top notch and nice and dark which doesn't show in pictures unfortunately but its very nice. Another nice touch is the engraving on the lock ring with your serial number aligns with the main engraving on the 18500 tube when its in the locked position.
6. The device hits nice and hard which I'm giving credit to the copper contacts. Hits as well as any SS nemesis, chi. or king if not better IMO
Cons:
1. I had to shave the top pin a little so I could use my patriot with a button capped efest battery. Took about 5 mins with a dremel. You can buy new pins from the manufacturer so this was no big deal.
2. Setup with different length batteries wont be as fast as the nemesis style device
3. no 18650 tube as of yet and the mod only come with one tube, not sure if you can buy other tubes separately.
Overall Im very impressed with this device. The attention to detail is amazing and there are many nice little features that make me feel this is a quality device.
Picture:
Im thinking of brushing my de badged patriot to make it match better and Id like to get a drip tip with a little brass on it to match the brass ring better.
