Stingray X or Nemesis

[Krod360]

Wondering which one is "better" I'm sure they have pros & cons. I like the idea of the magnet switch already in the X.... I hear most issues come from the Nemesis switch. Just wondering about everybody's opinion..

I have both. The stingray x is a much better mod. Floating 510 pin, all copper inside, shorter switch, lower voltage drop.

I like the looks of the "X" better!

I own both the Nemesis and Stingray X, both of them get used equally and I don't really think one is better than the other, they both operate on nearly the same switch/lock ring design and both have multiple piece main tubes. Both can be set up for magnetic switches, both can be set up for Hybrid top cap. You're going to hear more about the Nemesis because more people own them, it's been around longer and was cloned first and by more companies so there are going to be more inconsistencies with the Nemesis from mod to mod.

Honestly I think this one comes down to appearances and even then it's hard to decide which to choose, I couldn't decide so I own both...

I can only offer my opinion on the X, as I have not owned a nemesis.

I own two clone X's, both by Infinite. I like the form factor, being short even in 18650 mode. Magnetic buttons, easily adjusted for battery rattle, throw can be adjusted, floating 510 pin. They both work great in Hybrid mode!

I like the clones so much, I purchased an authentic XTi to help support JDTech in their future development!

If possible, I'd suggest checking out a local B&M (if you have one around) and holding both in your hand. That might make the decision easier!

I have a Stingray, a Stingray X, and a Nemesis. All authentic. I enjoy them all equally.

My personal preference is for the Stingray X. I've owned both as clones, but I gave away my Nemesis to a friend who got into vaping. For me, they both perform admirably. My nemesis was stainless and brass, while the Stingray X is copper with a stainless sleeve. So the Stingray hits much harder. But they do sell copper Nemesis clones, so how hard they hit is a moot point. The advantages of the Stingray is in the floating pin. It makes it much for convenient to switch attys and replace batteries.

I have both clones and I have to vote for the stingray x for both looks and performance, stock magnets are nice (no upgrade required) and there is less voltage drop from the full copper vs the nemesis ss. Can't really go wrong with either one, it's going to be all about personal preference.

My copper nemi has a floating pin. I did upgrade the switch to magnets. The con for the nemisis is it takes a lot of turns to lock and unlock, really no biggie for me.

I also own both. I have a Stingray X clone, and a brass Nemesis clone. I switched the Nemesis to fat daddy magnets and still don't like the switch. I don't like the lock ring on both mods, but the Stingray X lock ring is much easier to use. Also, my Stingray X came with a hybrid adapter. I can't believe I never knew about a hybrid adapter!! The inside of my Stingray is copper and accompanied by the hybrid adapter, HITS LIKE A TANK! Stingray X for the WIN!
