Not yet on replacement glass, on this or the MT. I need it also. Maybe when clones come out, FT will get some.
OBS Crius RTA?

Unfortunately I just can't justify the price of one of these. Even though I really want one. The Bellus and the Goliath cost me half the price and they are great tanks so I think I'll just use those until I can find a better deal on a Crius.
I just picked up the updated crius at my B&M for 35 today and all I can say is WOW. Very nice to work with I thought the dual coils would be tricky but I just pre trimmed the legs and held both close to the posts and screwed them in. The wicking was pretty easy it burped at me once and I went in and put a tiny tiny piece of cotton on each juice hole to plug it up a little more and it's been amazing with a dual titanium build. I liked my crown tank and rba but that will be taking a backseat for a while. 
Gearbest has a coupon code for it: OBSCrius - $11 off which makes it $22 dollars. Now it's cheaper than the Bellus (considering shipping from etop) so I think this tank will get a lot more attention in the coming weeks.
I've seen many of his vids as he'll do just wicking tutorials on tanks and he's one of the best out there and he builds the Crius here. I haven't gotten mine yet to test out but he's wicking it a lot different than some of you.
.... Kickers Reviews:
It was mentioned in the video; albeit in passing. .24 ohms and 55 watts. Its happy all the way up to 80 or so with this build, and the build works great on a mechanical as well

I was thinking of getting this deal. Roxy is gear best really that bad? It is a great deal especially with free shipping. I don't mind having to wait a long time.
What I don't like is there is no indication on whether it is the updated version or not. The product description is "Original OBS Crius RTA" so idk. Does the "Original" part mean that it is not the updated version? Confused....
I would look at the photos, but it does sound like the first version. Many people have had trouble getting their orders shipped, or they've arrived broken. Weeks to get refunds.
I was one of them, including in this thread. I ordered a Sigelei 30W on Aug 19th and it didn't come and it's lost in vapor heaven. I went through their ticket process and I got this saying I never received it:

I chose 2 a few days ago but they haven't responded yet and I don't have the $18 yet but hopefully it's just the weekend thing. After doing research on gearbest it's a must to get their tracking option for $2 extra or whatever. The box mod was $30 so I guess it's not all that bad considering it might not be their fault at all.
So the $30 isn't all lost and instead of the 30W Sig I'll go with the new Cloupor Mini Plus 50w TC for about $14 total as their VTC Mini is too expensive and I already have one. I might roll the dice and get another Crius too with the coupon code as it's dirt cheap. Btw, it's version 2 also according to them even though is says original on the title.
I bet they never shipped it. You aren't alone based on what I've read here. And yet, I've gotten all my orders from every other place in China. I don't think its the shipping, I think its GB.
Actually that reminded me as they sent me a picture of the package when they shipped it. I just looked at it and zoomed in like crazy and the label was correct however my City looks to be a bit smugged in the middle along with the "apt" for apartment. I'll never know but after doing research when I had the problem was that people have had issues with them but they're not that bad, probably a step below fastech and topfun, but always opt for the tracking # from what people said.
I ordered 2 from GearBest back on October 26th for $20.96 each without a coupon and after allot of inquiries they finally shipped it 9 days later on November 4th. It is sitting somewhere in Suzhou, China I believe waiting to leave the country. I have no idea when I will get them. As long as you are not in a rush, it is probably the best deal around.
Hey, does anybody know of some EU shop that has the V2 available? I'm definitively wanting one, but buying from the US would kill me with shipping and potentially import fees...
Just a quick question for everyone. How often do you re wick the crius? I go through about 20mls in it a day but I've only had it three days and was wondering what everybody else did. And anybody doing any claptons in it? Thanks for the info.
Depends on the juice on how often to wick, darker juices every 2-3 days, lighter might get 5 days without rewicking.
I did put claptons in mine, just to see what it was like, it did fit ok, but was to warm of a vape for my liking so took them back out.
I am having the same problem. Not sure if I was to order this tank or the bellus
