The mod was made in two halves with a bit of veneer between, I drilled out the holes to 4mm and lined them with some metal tube, I then fitted the Vamo board into one half and then glued them together.
I have a 3mm pin on my keyring to change the setting if needed. I got fed up with accidentantly changing the power setting with the normal buttons.

Very sweet mods with great workmanship!

So last week, I was so excited to have been able to purchase the Chi You Mod. Just yesterday I got a new Vapinaze AC9 from my local shop. I am estatic! :D

Very nice, The Chi You is my Unicorn. I really like the Caravela but its sooo far out of my price range. I just wish people would stop buying them just to resell at a ridiculous mark up :(

Lol yeah, every nice mod I ever look for online is just always sold out all the time. I've only been vaping for 6 weeks but its one of the most frustrating things I've encountered before , wanting to buy something but simply being unable to do so.

I agree with you, Pedro agrees with you, and everyone who loves the Caravela agrees with you. It would be nice if they just went straight from Pedro to those who appreciate them. The "buying just to sell" phenomenon is a distraction that causes the Artist much pain. Not much can be done about it, I see it happen in other collectibles all the time.

Yup seems to be happening with a lot of the mods. Chi You for 225, 2 days later on the classies trying to trade for a Caravela or asking 400+ if they dont want to trade. Oh well maybe one of my buds out in Cali will be able to snag me one from Vape Rev next time they have them in.

The Natural and AC9 clone. A match made in Vape Land. This very well may be the best cloned atty ever. It is going to give the AGA a run for it's money for sure. This pic is in 18350 mode.


As a buyer of the 2nd gen AC9, I was sorely disappointed with the long 4 month hold on my money, missing parts on arrival, and overall terrible build quality and poor quality threading, which still seems to be plaguing the AC9. I never could get it to thread on a Caravela, and on the Vamo it was a ridiculous baton of monstrous proportions.

At $68 for the whole setup INCLUDING the Natural at VaporTekUSA, I suspect the AC9 is finished. It wasn't a bad idea, just very poorly executed. And the clone looks like it has an insulated wick hole to boot. Not just cloned, but improved.

The wick hole is not insulated. They just installed a spacer to reduce the hole from 4mm to 3mm. I set it up with a completely unoxidized wick and 3 wraps of ribbon wire. It is a great vape and even better looking setup. I am going to grind down the connector on the Natural so the atty sits flush.

I'd take it a step further, just take the top cap out of the equation and try something like this (making it a hybrid). I, of course, don't have a Natural and don't know much about it but if it's a straight mechanical it should work.

EDIT: By the way, it does look great. Probably the best China made combo I've seen IMO.

A quick follow through with remarketing of these mods...I also agree, these people have no shame. But, IF members would stop purchasing them at such stupid prices and work for them like we do maybe some of it would stop. Patience people.

other then that....keep the pics coming!

I'm not sure if that comment was referring to my clone pic but here's what I bought before I bought those...
The real AC9 directly from Vapinaze. The last sale

I also own 3 GGTS' as well.
I think its great that many people that will never be able to afford the real overpriced deal, can own something comparable and enjoy the same vape as those of us whom are more fortunate
