Stringray, Caravelas, Turtle Ship V2 or Nemisis WHICH ONE??????????????????

[Illadelphia215]

So here is what I'm looking for in each...
Stingray - Copper or brass. From what I've read on here and from the pictures the Infinite versions seem to have the best finish, is that right?
Caravelas - Copper or brass. Not sure of which company, any suggestions?
Turtle Ship - Brass. I heard that the fasttech versions have crunchy buttons. Are the Hcigars any better? Suggestions?
Nemisis - Copper or brass. RJ mods? Atmom? Any other companies you prefer??

I was going to run them all in 18650 (VTC, 2600MaH, 30A, 3.7v) mode with either a Patriot or Helios (clones).

Can you guys tell me your experiences with these models, which you prefer and why, which companies/copies do you prefer?

I appreciate your help!

Avoid the TurtleShip. Major button problems with that one. (Even the Authentic)

Nemesis is fantastic.

Haven't tried the Stingray or Caravela.

Poldiac or 69 arent good for subohm. Plastic parts inside...
Turtleship?? lol Caravela and stupid locking ring... Dont know about stingray but nemesis is great.

Nemesis: Airflow control, silver adjustable pins, optional hybrid pin, nice look, great finish, many custom parts like colored tubes. Recommended!

I have a nemesis ss clone, and thanks to my awesome wife, I just got a brand new, genuine copper black stingray. I love both and both! Of course, the stingray is now my favorite. You can tell the difference right away between copper and stainless, dif between brass and copper as far as voltage drop is almost unnoticeable. Copper requires a ton of upkeep though to keep the contacts clean and performing tip top, so if you get a copper, I recommend you also get a ss or a brass as a daily beater because of less upkeep.

Nemesis is fully adjustable but requires a few more minutes to get it all set up and snugged up for the first time. Stingray has a shorter throw and the top cap has a floating pin, so the only adjustment to get it snug is the button. Also, the lock ring on the stingray is a lot faster to use, since the threads are a little wider and there is less gat between the body and the button.

I have a mixed nemesis with a gold plated trident. I am beyond impressed with it. I do have a brass stingray on order im waiting on. so for now I highly recommend the nemesis.

Stingray has similar design of Nemesis in locking , metal tube ring...
I'm big fan of Nemmy, so I ordered Stingray clone from Fasttech....but now HCigar has one you can get in state for around 50.00 shipped..and it comes with matching drip tip.

The Turtle v2 fixes lot of problems with locking mech...but I don't know for sure..I got one of the way...but if i had to recommend one :

Stingray, then Nemmy + magnet upgrade in switch....

with any material..you have to up keep it...so ask yourself..how diligent of person you are when it comes to polishing brass,copper, etc

I would stay away from the Hcigar version of the stingray. The Infinite one is where its at, even the fasttech ones look better. I just got the Hcigar one last week and its crap, button sticks and practically auto fires, needs to be pulled out everytime I use it. The logo on the bottom switch is just sad looking, I need to polish the thing off. Maybe its just me but im not too happy with what I got.

My wife doesn't subohm. She doesn't use RDAs or RBAs at all. She really doesn't know the difference between a mech mod and a VV mod.


What she does know is that 69 is half the size of her SVD, her iClear 30S tank fits on it, and with a Kick it vapes with the same power all day long, and that's all that matters to her.

I hate copper. It's like vaping on a roll of pennies and it smells funny.

I've been contemplating getting a turtleship. In the end, decided to stay away from mechs for now and got a MVP 2. Maybe in a few weeks I'll pick up that turtleship

Good point sir, maintenance is a key factor in determination but maybe out weighed by performance

It is really lol. Huge voltage drop and bad fire button. Instead of that is just laser etched metal tube.

 

[JoeDerty]

my buddy has a Caravela and hates it. The Nemesis is amazing, Magneto is almost as good. Everyone says the Stingray is the best out now.

Everyone says the Stingray is the best out now.

Then "everyone" should check the voltage drop under load. The Stingray looses a lot more voltage under load than the Nemesis does.

 

[roflwaffles]

I have both a Infinite Stingray and a FT Nemesis, the Infinite takes basically everything I like about the Nemesis and makes it better.

 

[mr.mmgonzalez]

Infinite stingray is awesome. Some people have complained about the switch but that's an easy "fix". I love mine and it hits like a champion. I paid 100 for it at a local B&M and later saw it for 40 bucks online and I wasn't even mad! It's that killer of a mech mod.

I have an infinite stingray in brass and it is pretty nice. My switch is a tiny bit crunchy but I can fix it this weekend. Overall a great buy.
