Ok while these Vapor Flask V2 pics really don't belong here, since Roxy and Nelson asked here they are. I tried to capture the smoothness of the finish, but I think that was a fail 
While the silver color is a bit boring, I am hesitant to wrap it because the finish feels so luxurious in the hand. I just rewatched PBusardo's review of the authentic flask and the SXK is a 1:1, only the screws on the top plate are different. I also think the SXK's fire button looks better than the authentic because it doesn't protrude from the body as far ... and I also love that my clone doesn't have a slight gap in the top plate like Phil's and a lot of other folks authentic flask does.
In fact there is a ...... off authentic Flask owner on the other forum who posted a pic of the hideous gap in his legit flask .. bummer.
You can see that its not that tall, even as its fairly wide, but fits perfectly in the hand. I am usb charging it as I write this even though it didn't need charging yet, I just wanted to make sure the charging port works, and it does.

My black sleeve for my SX Zero came today. I didn't realize it had cutouts; thought those were engravings. So my turquoise Samsung battery is peaking at me 
However, it fits perfectly without the little gap I had with the original sleeve.

I like the black finish on the SX Zero sleeve better than the Yosen special edition .. I still have not fitted them my new and favorite SX Zero, and I also have nice red 3M waiting to wrap one. I actually want to try an wrap one of the cut out sleeves, but I am going to need your exacto knife for that.

Everyone should have an exacto knife
Check SXK on Facebook for the DNA Zero version.
FT dropped the SXK DNA today:

i thought you would have known that tbh. ive seen shots of the real sleeve on facebook.
that's great its a better fit. my LGs would be poking out (red)
All my batteries are odd colors. Red would be better. Nope, never noticed in the first pics I looked at.
Why did I think this was going to be an sx300 chip?
There is a 50W DNA Version of this SXK DNA hybrid Zero as well .. I am friends with Rija from SXK on FB and he sent me a ton of pics of the 50W version last week, but I didn't bother posting them because I didn't think anyone was really interested in it .. I would rather have the SX 300C chip. Rija never mentioned a 40W version though, so that's .. interesting 
The Yosen one I have is the 50W SX 300 chip .. SXK is under limited term contract with Yosen for the SX version, so you won't see that one on FT until the contract is up. Just as it was for the first DNA Zero.
Yosen is also reselling the DNA 50W version as the Yosen Hybrid, so that is prolly why FT has the 40W and not the 50W version.
I guess I thought Yosen and SXK were putting out the same mod.
Is it safe to assume that 40W on FT is their own chip and probably janky?

For clarification, SXK is the manufacturer that makes 90% of everything that Yosen resells, including the Yosen SX. SXK cannot resell anything that they are under contract for, and these contracts usually last 1-3 months depending on the terms. They can also be canceled early due to poor performance. Not sure if SXK is under contract for the 50W DNA hybrid Zero, but I think they might be .. there is definitely a contract for the SX. Rija at SXK is a little rogue, and I know from the horses mouth that there had been some recent in fighting over SXK reselling certain things that have made their way to FT .. like the SX300 Box, Vapor Flask and Vapor Shark.
Yes, all of the DNA Zero chips are made by SXK ... hopefully SXK's skill set with regard to electronics has improved, usually practice makes perfect. The SXK Vapor Flask V2 is performing nicely without issue however, I will be more convinced when I hear more consumer feedback on it. The Yosen SX 50W is also performing nicely, but SXK also did not make that chip, they only made the body housing it. ;-)
And here it is with a Heron (not screwed down tight) as ocd has hit and I need to come up with some form of protection around the 510 so the finish doesn't get ruined.
