I never heard of this company before now... they may just be new to the scene but I could find no other info aside from what is posted on their website. Their Caravela def looks good, appears to have most everything that is pretty standard on these mods by now. I came across an eBay seller that has the mod w all three tubes for $30, to I took a chance and have one on the way.

**Will update once I get my hands on it.

The one offered by focalecig, yet another Chinese vendor, is $31. Has all 3 tubes and the fully adjustable 510 connector instead of the cloned 3 different sizes of pin, a much better approach IMHO. It's on my list of mods to get but I haven't yet although I have gotten other mods from them I was pleased with.

Just a suggestion if you've been thinking about "off brands."

So I got my "Shenmao" Caravela clone the other day and I am pretty impressed overall. Serial # lines up with the 'ship' engraving, the lock is reversed threaded, smooth threads, fit and finish is more than I was expecting (aside from a VERY small chip in the brass topcap, you prob won't even notice in the pics). I really dig the 2 piece adjustable positive pin, you can get both your atty and top cap nice and flush while eliminating battery rattle at the same time. Besides the very minor cosmetic "chip/scrape" I have nothing bad to say about this kit. **It did also come with all three sized tubes for diff batteries, but am just using in 18650 at the moment

I really like the Caravela style but hate the multi fixed pin approach of the original top cap. Then I heard Infinite corrected that in their clone. Finding one was difficult and expensive. Thanks for bringing this version to my attention.
