Steam Turbine Clone

[Zezak]

Looks like the next atomizer to be cloned is the turbine. Going to come in three finishes; machined, polished, and in titanium.

I can't wait to see this, I'll be down for sure

I have 2 of these ST clones coming soon. They are the ones from hcigar though. They look really nice from the pics. Dual wicks holes and an air/fill hole in the deck. Plus dual air holes in the top cap. I think this is going to be a nice rba.

Anyone know when and where we can pick these up. Better yet anyone know of a co-op.

Not sure if it's the Hcigar one or if it's still going on but there was one on congrevape.

Man a day late on that one. It just closed

 

[JulesXsmokr]

is that tall for an rba? the width though is perfect - if the hcigar one comes around the states, I might be on.. glass tank?

I put in for the congrevape replica, I'm exited. when I get it I'll be sure to post pics of it and do a little mini review

Just got one in the mail. Is it just me or do the airholes not align with either coil? At least with the stock holes, they are so small they'll be easy to fill in and drill brand new, aligned holes. This thing looks dope to me though

dang was interested now i think i will wait for more opinions on this.

Yes the air holes do not align with the wick holes.... and the holes are tiny... crazy.
Everything else is pretty nice though... but still, air hole placement is important and this is both o ring and threaded top cap... i like the idea as the top cap is very cool, but hole placement seems like deal breaker.... go figure.

 

[Bern Diesel]

Other than the airholes, the quality is good on these. The holes are even tinier than in the pics. I think you could just epoxy them or liquid weld (whatever it's called) and drill new holes where they are supposed to be. You wouldn't even know the other holes were there, they're so small. For $45 or less, shouldn't really be a deal breaker, imo.

Does the original have one set of holes between the 2 coils, or a set of holes for each coil?

 

[ukeman]

for a guy that doesn't mod anything... i don't even have a drill.

but i hear you... i think its one of the coolest genesis atomizers i've tried.
just a shame it comes like that...hcigar really blew it if thats the case.

something as simple as lining up the air hole to a wick hole (for a threaded cap)... maybe it shows that they are more clone masters, but don't even vape.

dual coils would be nice to have an air hole by each wick hole.

the metal of the top cap is quite light for a 2mm thick piece... maybe its easy to drill.

I agree for sure, and it wont matter for a lot of people but im in that stage of vaping i guess to where I dont feel I should have to fix things out of the box for them to work as advertised.

maybe sand down the threads and put a fatter o ring.

 

[State O' Flux]

I might be on.. glass tank?

Bump for a good question... that I'd like the answer to myself. Too bad about the air holes. No big for the mechanics among us, but still, it'd been nice if they got it right, out of the box.

 

[Jaseruckus]

That sucks, hoping these problems can be easily fixed. I know the ST is supposed to have 4 1mm air holes, 2 lined up for each wick hole. I don't have any drill bits small enough to make 1 mm, maybe I can find some at home depot or lowes. That or plug up the holes and make single 1/16th holes for each wick hole, which kind of sucks because I heard that the 4 1mm holes are what makes the ST different from other genesis atty's.

Guess Hcigar is better at making mods than they are devices.

 

[Lhartman89]

The Hcigar version is supposed to come with a glass tank.

 

[Bern Diesel]

Yes, it has a glass tank. Set mine up but not firing it up till get the holes in the cap right. Also gonna switch wick holes so the coils are at 3:00 and 9:00 positions rather than the 5:00 and 7:00. The way these coils lit up tho, I can't wait to try it.

28 gauge, 9 wrap microcoils, 400 unoxidized mesh just dyin for some juice!

That's good... the rest is easy enough to mod. ;-)

 

[ukeman]

hmmm would you say the micro coiling eliminates hot spots on the ss mesh?
