I couldn't resist. I bought one from your link from ebay - Top Rated Seller, that's good..
I'm liking' the quarter turn lock, the one piece tube, and it comes with a fuse, not crazy about the combo ego and 510 top cap, it could have been shorter w/o the ego well. It'll be 3mm taller than my Neme..it should be here prolly by Saturday - says ebay..
I checked 8 other stores that are just getting these in, and they want at least 10 to 20 bucks more and where I bought this it had free shipping! we'll give this a hands on review when I receive it..;)

Mine came as promised yesterday by USPS and eBay..
Packaged nicely in a black smok box which did not have the hologram attached which I thought they were now using.
The look and finish is about as nice as you can achieve on the single tube - the ever so lightly brushed/machined finish has been very well done, no flaws there.
The top cap has a slightly a raised knurling on it to assist in removing it to replace the battery (18650), it has a well in the cap to accept an ego threaded device if you wish, and also to scoop up some liquid from a leaky topper. (it happens)
The skull engraving on the tube has some depth to it and is nicely done with good color. The SMOKE logo on the back side is smallish and also nicely engraved.
The bottom cap locking ring (and this is a winner for me) has the same knurling on it so you can quickly and easily give it a quarter turn to lock it, so it won't fire. The magnetic switch is definitely better/smoother/easier than the Magneto or my Nemesis. I use my first joint on my pinkie, closest to my knuckle to fire this easily. (I am used to firing bottom switches this way)
With my full kfl on it - it will not fire if you stand it up and the switch is not locked. It will also stand up quickly on a table with no problem in balancing itself.
The mod does hit harder than the Magneto and has been firing consistently with no misses. Right now I am using a Magma on it with a .8 ohm coil and it is shucking out the vape really nice and fast.
I am using the 7 amp fuse with it and this came with a second fuse in the box also. This is a 22mm. mod and your 22mm. toppers will be flush.
Did I mention the spring loaded and floating top firing pin! Well, that pin works beautifully. It's so nice not to screw your pin in or out anymore like the Magneto v.2 or the Nemesis to get a flush down fit. Just throw on an atty - hit the fire button and relax..
The threads on this device are deep and trues, no wobble, noise or tightness that you have to work back apart.
It came all nice and clean - no residue of machining particles or oil found anywhere.
For a less than 50 dollar original device - I am rating this a 9 out of 10 easily. It may not be the hardest hitting mod, but I have no way of testing this anyway. It is solid, feels as if it's going to last long time, and looks great.
SmokTec has made this mod a no brainer, glad I jumped on it.
This device looks killer with the Magma on it.- A perfect match. ;)

So, I got the Fury. Love it! But, now all of a sudden the fire button part on bottom starts heating up pretty hot. You know like somethings wrong hot.. Then I saw a little spark on the bottom, when I was firing it. !? I'm not gonna use it anymore until I can figure out whats happening. Any Ideas out there?
