Strange Nemesis Clone

[DaDippy]

So there is a local shop around where I live and they sell these Nemesis clones. However, after doing a little researching, they aren't like any of the other clones that I have found on the web so far. From what I gather, all of the clones I have seen, including the original, have a telescoping firing pin. Mine on the other hand, has a spring loaded pin. I have been using it with an agi set up in dripping mode and an igo-w without any issues, really just wondering if anyone has seen this or has heard anything bad about them.

Oh, and everyone keeps talking about 2 springs in the button, but it seems like I only have 1.

That is weird. A spring on the top would be nice. I thought the bottom brass spring was for better conductivity ?

Definitely NOT a true Reproduction.

Is it actually spring loaded or just a floating pin design?

Looks to be floating.

Bottom switch assembly looks correct. Except missing the smaller inner spring.

Edit: No matter, get the Magnets and the bottom springs are not used.

Top could be replaced with an original - $30

It's spring loaded for sure, the smaller top part of the firing pin sinks into the larger base. As far as the smaller spring being used to help with conductivity, I have no clue lol.

Not sure I like that idea.
tolerance needed for free movement reduces contact/conductivity. Tiny spring could get trashed from head if going Sub Ohm.

Bottom Springs are for switch feel/function but not part of the connection chain. That is why you can swap for magnets. The magnets never touch each other.

Yea I figure that will eventually happen, I've been running a .7ohm coil on it for a week solid and no catastrophe yet. I suppose when it does go out I could replace it with a free floating pin, no?

Actually, I'm wondering if an original Pin could be threaded in place of the spring loaded one.
Just need to verify the hole isn't already to large. Delron will tap easily.

 

[DaDippy]

Any idea where I could buy a pin to try out?

In USA - Vaperev - currently out off stock.
