Origen Genesis v2 Clone

[ccwaters]

Did you ever resolve your Nextgen GB issue?

After about 20 messages, caliing them out for blatantly lying changing pictures, and getting very irate, they got tired of me, full refund, didn't ask for a return. Stupidly I had them put the $$$ in my wallet, bought the REO clone from them, still waiting for that to ship. And, unfortunately they have recently listed the Gizmo clone, and the Ubertoot V2 clone, both of which I'll probably have to purchase from them.

3F has the Gizmo listed, but its been out of stock forever, the Ubertoot I already have the rough one from fasttech, but want to get the hopefully properly machined V2, a quite nice atomizer, fasttech has really been behind the competition with new products for a while now.

Do you have an authentic REO cc?

I need to see the insides under the delrin insert of the clone. Curious as to the quality.

Glad to hear you got a refund on the SXK. The UTA looks good but I don't need one and I like the idea of the Gizmo/Microstik etc. If they made a 18650 VW version I would be all over that and the Rose V2 would go perfectly in it.

I like the look of the Reo but same deal, if they made it VW then the hunt for BF pins would begin...

Yeah FT is too busy cataloging 8000 new drip tips to pickup or list new SKU's. How is 3F for shipping and speed?

Mechanical is just more reliable. I only use VW at home....

I finally found a deal on an authentic that I could live with, but it probably won't be here until mid next week, my clone hasn't shipped yet, but from the pictures Focal put up with the one they listed today it looks pretty decent. Probably won't get the clone for another couple weeks at least. fasttech just listed the Reo clone, but they are the most expensive of every place I've found it.

If you get a Microstick clone make sure to buy the one without the knurling on the button, it has a better switch, I had to rob the insulator out of my Minigen for the Miniatty that came with my Microstick clone, the the one they used melted almost instantly. They also did not assemble it properly, as it shipped it wouldn't even fire, simple enough to fix though. Clone is pretty decent, compared to my authentic Microstick it is pretty close, only real notable difference is the logo.

Gizmo is on my wishlist, but going to hold off a bit. Gizmo should be kickable, it ships with in 18500 mode, and has the 18650 extension.

I don't mind mechs, You just need to build to suit them, and the vape experience you want. I prefer small light stuff when I'm not home usually the Microstick, or an 18350 mech with the Ignition Ego one and the GS2 should be a nice combo as well.

So far every single picture that I've seen of the REO clone is from the same place. I've also read that those pictures are not of the clone but, an actual REO. Actually the one they got their hands on to clone. We'll see...

Common practice, that is the way they do it most times, it is especially obvious with FT, and easy to tell if they are images the manufacturer sent, or from the actual product. Take a look at Focal's pics, which are fresh images. Doris has said these are of the actual product, I've no reason to doubt her. She also posted the following image to the Focal Cig facebook group of 3 arrivals that day.

Well it hasn't worked out very well for me at all with the Tobeco clone. Maybe I'm just stupid and missing something glaringly obvious, (hope so) but I cannot find any way at all to attach a positive lead to that center post, which is radically different from anything I've ever used, nor are there any instructions for this atty that I can find anywhere, in ENGLISH. I cannot do anything at all with that center post. It's screwed down so tight I can't move it or get at it at all, and I can see no way whatever to attach a positive lead to it. Bummer in the summer.

Anyway, this is what I got in the mail today:



Just after posting this: Yeti Vapes called and explained it to me, and as I had hoped it was something I was too stupid to figure out. Allen key in the center post top. Doh! Well, it's not like anything I've built yet, so moving right along....

 

[ccwaters]

Glad you have it figured out, I like the grub screw/slots it works pretty well, and is not too difficult to build. Received my second one Saturday, Going to do a dual coil build on that one.
Single coil .26 gauge/cotton build 1.2 ohms

 

[Vaslovik]

Yes, it does work really well, and once you know it vapes like a champ. Got it built, it's running very nicely. Never used grub screw setups before, so this is very new to me. My other gennies use a really standard center post, screw it down or spring capture. Also, my eyes aren't what they used to be, so I didn't catch onto the grub screw arrangement until they told me.

One thing I need to do is get spares for the itty bitty parts that go to this genny, cuz I'm sure I'll lose them at some point. I have it running at .67 ohm right now, which is a little too hot, so I'll be working on builds for it tonight...

Just put a .8 ohm on it, that seems to be working nicely.

 

[ccwaters]

You should have gotten a little bag with a second chamber reducer for dual coil, second filler plug, 3 spare screws, a second grub screw, 7 assorted o-rings. Haven't built mine with mesh yet, but I've got enough other atties set up with mesh for now. I've tried this one with lower resistance builds, and didn't care for it as much as 1.2 ohm build.

 

[Vaslovik]

I did get that little bag of parts, but I think it would be wise to get another such little bag of parts. Little parts like that have a habit of getting dropped and not found again.

 

[ccwaters]

Nothing wrong with some extra spares, would like to have some extra glass as well.

Speaking of extra glass I am waiting on a replacement tank for my Kraken which i broke trying to remove. I ordered two just in case.

I was going to mention the sacrilege of cotton in the Origenny ([HASHTAG]#NoCottonInMyGenny[/HASHTAG]) but you justified it in your other post.

 

[ccwaters]

These all have mesh builds in them, a bunch of others hiding on my shelf unbuilt as well, I think the only two which really end up with occasional cotton builds are my Krakens, and the Origennys.

 

[Vaslovik]

Oh Wow! Now I have collection envy!

 

[ccwaters]

Oh Wow! Now I have collection envy!

I have way too much, just a small portion of it..


If anyone is looking for spare glass for MRK II Fasttech just listed, single, and 5 pack.

 

[EddieAdams]

They're limiting file size now?

Was going to post a picture of my build...

Dont be ridiculous the aga t-2 is a piece of crap.....in it's day it was a decent cheap gennys for beginners but even then it's appeal was that it was cheap, although it was a far better vape than it's chief rival the RSST which trully is a piece of crap.....genny desgin has come a long long way the agat-2 is garbage put up against the high end gennys even the mid range gennys of today..even a mid range genny like the storm rider blows it out of the water, not to mention the duddenberg ......but alongside things like the rsm rocket,the in'ax.the pegasus 22 the origen genisis v2, the pulse G.the Lon the Sat 22, and a dozen others the aga-t2 is crap.....even a novice genny builder I'd recommend the stormrider ,the agat-2 won't deliver as good a flavor and I vaped the agat-2 with mesh and ceramic wicks,and .there is no better wick for flavor than porous ceramic wicks...by the way how many diffrent gennys have you actually owned.........and seriously if you haven't found a better genny than the aga-t2 you are doing alot wrong......because I've been vaping gennys for 3 years and there is not a single experinced genny owner I know that has not thrown his aga t-2 in the garbage a long time ago... hell the aga-t3 was a much better atty.
