Button threads covered in powder coat residue even though it isn't coated, top cap took a lot of cleaning as well. That's the pictures right out of the box yesterday

-- the threads on the skorite are also absolutely horrible I'll post a couple pics
They are quite the mess. But those pics have me curious. I thought the Stingray had a somewhat different design for the bottom switch but that sure looks just like a Nemesis switch with the exception being the design of the bottom cap (slotted vs. solid) but that's just esthetics.

Sorry checking back as I take breaks at work, yes this is the black copper stingray.

And it is a very crappy version of a nemesis switch. It's rough as hell and it gets stuck occasionally, just hasn't fired when it got stuck so far luckily


Had to work the top cap back and forth on the 650 tube to even get it to thread on, after I cleaned out the threads

Going to order the magnets and figure out a way to get the "adjustable" pin out so I can sand it a little so it will actually move

As long as the magnets resolve the button I'll be pretty happy, above and beyond my noted issues it really does hit like a truck, haven't tested voltage drop but it feels like little to none, my wife can't sneak drags off mine now lol

i have two authentic stingrays. one is black copper one is limited red copper. they are absolutely perfect. my firing switch is the smoothest switch ive ever felt, doesnt make a single noise. the threads feel like they have been greased up they are beyond smooth as well. this thing is silent, no noise when threading no noise when pushing the fire button. it is absolutely stunning. i cant say enough good things about stingrays, authentic ones that is.... its a shame they cloned such a perfect mod and made it badly.:facepalm:

Apparently infinites clone is very nice, skorite on the other hand butchered it, I've got my threads and switch sorted out now, cleaned out all the threads and now they go in like butter, once the magnets show up hopefully it will fix the sticking on the button, I think it's the spring they used in it

Did you order from the eBay link in this thread or elsewhere?

As it turns out, yes. I had ordered a Ehpro Kayfun lite plus from them before and was just looking around on there last night for batteries and ended up with that in my cart as well.
 
I thought i would come back to mention that WhiteStag emailed me again saying that they when to complain to the manufacture once again and this time they are going to send out new top caps and switches with magnets and a fix floating pin, all in silver. We shall see.....

They won't reply to me at all. Sent a couple e-mails. I just wrote a negative review of their product and CS about 5 minutes ago. We'll see if that is what it takes to get a reply from them.

I'll never recommend them for anything ever again.

Wanna sell the black copper?
 
Apparently the next run has silver plated contacts and magnetic switch is what I was told from the person I bought my skorite from.

Now to go order magnets, hopefully that will make this switch better, it really is atrocious.

Anyone know where to find some strong magnets for the switch.

I took the magnets out of one of my Nemesis and it didn't help at all. I bought my magnet switches from Vaporev, but you can grab them at fatdaddyvapes as well
