today, i'm packing magma and praxis clones. running teleos gamma at .6 ohm. has strong stone fruit taste. it says peach, but i'm getting more of nectarine taste. more sharper than the peach. i don't get the cream, but i taste bit of mango.

One of the things you look for is on the negative battery contact. They make two different types, over that looks like a flat topped screw.... These are not the 1:1's, on the ones you want the negative contact looks a bit like a capped nut. I'm only referring to the threading on these.... The actual contact is flat and round on both. So on the actual contact, if you unscrew it, the 1:1 is female threaded with the male threading on the button side
Sent with one hand, the other is busy vaping.

I think I catch what your saying.... If you got a second and can drop a pic of it in here for me that would be much appreciated.

I have a Shenxi Panzer Red Phoenix, which is great and high quality. The only thing I don't like about Panzers in general though is the modular design... there are so many different parts that unscrew. If I was going to get another Panzer clone, it would be the CCI Copper Tank Mod, which is a solid copper tube: CCI Copper Tank Mod
I think this is far better than an authentic Panzer. The price is a little high compared to many clones, but its still about 1/4 the price of an authentic copper Panzer.

Damn, that looks sweet. But ouch on the $65 price tag. I can add another 20 bones to that and get a legit ragnarock mod.

How you liking the Praxis my man? I've been seriously debating getting one. I just keep hearing complaints about the button. The button is definitely not like anything anyone has done before.

Can you super subohm on it without the button getting hot? Like 0.1ohm-0.2ohm? Do you know who makes the one you got?

that's 1:1 clone from FT. it's copper, and i don't think praxis comes in copper.. yet. the button was rather stiff for first week and it was getting stuck once in awhile with origen RDA. then i put magma on it, and now no issue. magma 510 is little longer and it cuts down on the throw distance. so the button doesn't stick, and it's easier to use. it take some getting used to, but now it's working fine.

i don't do super subohm. even at .4 ohm, i got lot of burnt taste due to being greedy. and i don't like burnt taste. and i hate dripping every other drag.. with setup i have, the flavor isn't super, but it's mild and nice. and i can vape for rather long time before i have to drip.

i might try .2-.3 on the tohb this weekend. magma has rather small air flow and it can get hot if i chain vape.

The Dimitri is pretty sweet, right? The Samurai with the gold AFC looks great on there.

I got this with the intention of using it with lower resistance builds and the Samurai is a great design for that kind of thing. It worked out that its a great match, especially with the button on the box matching the RDA colors.

The Dimitri works so well. I have dual VTC5 batteries in there, which brings my max continuous amperage to 60 amps. That Samurai is a quad coil build at .09 ohms, pulling about 46 amps, which is a bit much for a single 30 amp VTC5, but well within the safe range for that box.

I am loving it! It works perfectly. I really like the button where it is too. The way that I like to grip the box in my hand, the button is right where my thumb is. It fires every time and hits so hard.

Thanks for the tip about the discount. I have no noticed, however, that FastTech has now reduced the price on the Ivogo Dimitri boxes to about the same as what I paid... so if anyone else is interested, extra emails to customer service for a good price are no longer needed.

Samurai clone on my new Ivogo Dimitri. This is so awesome.

How you liking the Dimitri? Does it have an adjustable 510 pin on it? I seem to remember reading some info on it on a site that had it for sale and I thought I remember it saying it had a fixed none adjustable 510 pin (might have been fasttech)..... I wasn't sure if it was a misprint ,or if that's how it actually came.

Did you get yours on fasttech?

Focalecig has a new code for it which drops the price to $38... "save12dimitri".

I wrote a review on the Dimitri for Vaping Cheap:

Mine doesn't seem to be adjustable... or not easily adjustable anyway. If you remove the contact below the 510 you can push the pin assembly up a little but it will get pushed back down as soon as you screw your atty on. With that said, I haven't had any problem with it. I use a Mephisto V2, Dark Horse, and Billow on mine - all three have adjustable 510s and all sit flush..

Rumor has it Ivogo will be shipping these with spring loaded 510s at some point.

Oh man, spring loaded would be perfect. It kinda sounds like it has a floating pin in it, but like you said.... you gotta undo the whole contact area to make it float upwards. But if it pushes down with ever atty you stick on there then they should all sit flush. Unless it runs out of room and hits something in the assembly and stops it from pushing down any farther on an atty with a super long 510 section.

Yeah, I guess technically it does float but not very much. Whether that is actually by design or not I really can't say. I only noticed it when I took the contact out and the pin assembly had pushed down farther than I thought it should have, lol.

Mine came with two different 510 bases... the whole thing with the circular delrin base and pin inside. The actual delrin that the atty mounts on is below the silver of the actual box, so I think it would look flush even if you had an atty with a long 510. I have only tried the Samurai on it so far, so I can't really say if there are problems, but I didn't adjust the Samurai 510 at all (it was already sticking out a good bit) and it looks perfectly flush to me.... in fact, it is perfectly flush. The 510 in the Dimitri must move at least a little.

Now that I got this killer Dimitri box, I can post the footage I recorded for my Samurai clone. I didn't put the whole build in the video, because I decided to keep it down to 5 minutes. Samurai is huge flavor and huge vapor. It begs to be built at low resistances with the airflow options and large post holes. Its a perfect combo for a dual parallel box.
