Nemesis vs. Astro

[jayyco]

Ive been really debating which one to get, and yes i am getting it from fasttech.com (clones) because im on a bit of a budget. But im wondering what you guys suggest. By the way i had just ordered a Helios clone from fasttech.com today and was wondering if the mods would be flush with the helios on it, or which one would be. Would love to hear what you guys have to say about the two!

You can check the specs of the helio to match the mod by lookin on FT. I just ordered my Nemi today based on allot of very happy owners here. If it's a stealthy vape your looking for the astro is supposedly the smallest one in 350 mode. The Nemi is pretty tiny as well an packs a pretty good punch from what they say

Ya i was on more of the Nemesis side, and what batteries/charger are you using. and what website did you get it from?

Ebay Lol. Currently It's the EfestV2 2000mah IMR and 1 trustfire2500mah. But thats just in my SVD. I also ordered a sony 18650 30amp so i could do sub-ohm safely.

I've actually ordered both devices from fasttech personally. They both are fine devices for being clones, I'm more partial towards my nemesis personally: I get a bit of a voltage drop on my Astro. However, I do use Efest 2100mah 30A batts and I'm not really digging them in general.

 

[ivenmendoza]

And yes, the Helios sits flush on both devices, the both hold adjustable pins. Btw, I had to make so many modifications in my Helios from fasttech before I even tried to rebuild it. Word of advice: Dremel Dremel Dremel.

Thanks for the input! Im probably gunna get sony's because of the fact that everyone loves them.

You talking bout the Purple Wrap ones? Those are pretty new on the market.

 

[ivenmendoza]

Yes they are. However they just released a 35A shortly after, so the 30A is kind of getting phased out. I figured the release of the 35A so quickly was because the 30a was ....ty. Ya know?

 

[TheReign]

Most likely so, I'll still stick with the sony's though. Been around for a while, sony i mean. At least to me I've only been around for 20 years so yeah. Still been hearing kick ... reviews of em so I'll give em a try.

I have an Astro that I really like. With my IGO-W on top it slips right into my front pocket of my jeans. I haven't even tried it in 350 mode.

astro mod 18350 - Google Search


for comparison purposes. The Astro is on the left.

 

[ecentricmotive]

I was debating between them too, but after further searching I found the maraxus clone. One of the craziest looking mods and now im waiting for it to come in! But for the op's question I would lean more towards the nemesis in my own opinion

 

[eyeofthejoow]

I would take a look at a Sentinel M16 clone from Hcigar. I own one and I absolutely love it. I also own a Nemesis and Astro clone and they barely get any use compared to the M16. You can pick them up from Ebay for about $25-35. Just make sure they have the silver plated contacts.

 

[eyeofthejoow]

One of my new Favorites though is the Turtle ship v2 clone. I'm a clone ....., but I do have some authentic mods too.

 

[TheReign]

I'd say nemesis Honestly. Even though everyone does have on ( as will I soon ) It's a very well performing mod so I read. Can't go wrong with looks and performance!

Got my Nemisis mixed edition from FT about 3 weeks ago, also got the 10 pack switch magnet upgrade,kick module & the V5 Nimbus clone RDA. This thing is fantastic, it's about all i use when at home. My Sigelei V5 now just sits there waiting to be used.

 

[Papa_Lazarou]

You wouldn't go wrong with either the astro or the nemi. Personally, I like the looks of the astro better - very steampunk when paired with a steamboy genisis. That said, the nemi is tres sleek and if you want that smooth hybrid look, it suits a wider variety of toppers. A kayfun on a nemi just looks soooo right.

The helios is a larger diameter RDA that will fit flush with either device (adjustable pins, both), but I'd say it's in the category of suiting the nemi better, aesthetically.

Chances are your curiosity will get the better of you, though, and you'll end up with both eventually (not that I'm an enabler).

What is the difference between the Nemesis, Staineless Steel and Nemesis, Stainless Steel (beauty rings)? What are the beauty rings?

I heard from a couple of owners of both mods that the Astro hit better than the Nemesis .. I have an all ss Astro from Focalecig on the way, but I do not have a Nemesis to compare it to, the Nemmy doesn't really do it for me.

And I am not surprised that you are not digging the Efest 30A ... folks get too amped up (pun intended) over these amp ratings, some of which have not been tested and proven. But if the manufacturer says it, then most believe it is so. Efest couldn't deliver an impressive 10amp battery, I don't know what makes people believe they could do better with 30amps.
