Me to. Now i'm way behind, and have to backtrack.
I see the Haku zeta is available at 3F...
Buy YFTK Haku Xeta Inside Style RBA SS Ultem Atomizer for BB Box Mod
Only on pre order atm. Hate that !!!
Hi Fred hope you're well.

Don't worry this only happened yesterday. I'm amazed as my OG still hasn't been shipped to me yet. There have been been around 1000 OG's sold so far and yftk have managed to get hold of of one already... Wow.

By the way I ordered my TRVPPED boxer 2 from BB vapes so that's due in October/november...:)

But I bought an RBA section (original) and it fits perfectly. Stunned.
I don't really take much interest in all the different coils and their idiosyncrasy's but i'm sure that sometimes the report like 'it was too long' etc, are the result of incorrect fitting. So for example a tight fitting coil that must be properly located and clicked into place is not....the bridge still works in these circumstances but it causes other problems like the above too long comments.

I'm no expert though :)

The 2 mm difference is enough to keep the box from fitting into it's spot.

The Kayfun 4 clones hit the market the same day the OG was released, lots of shenanigans happen with Chinese manufacturing... I think CAD/CAM files get passed around all the time, a few quick tweaks to lessen the cost and boom, the clone is rolling off the CNC machines. ;)

It's still astounding though when you think of the secrecy surrounding some of the products....hmmh.

The Footoon Aqua 2 was $135 back in the day, this "OTM" version from Fasttech came off the exact same CNC lines as the OG during the back shift. ;)

Then Footoon got even with Fasttech by releasing plans for a V3 that didn't work, FT ran with the ball and had them made.

Yes I can see that happening in those circumstances but not when the OG is made in the country of origin.

Corporate spys are everywhere in the MFG game. I imagine somebody from YFTK was first on the OG list and you can move products around the globe in hours.

Maybe they leaked the cad files accidentally [emoji6]...$$$$$ It seems that sxk and yftk are getting thier clones out faster and faster. Sometimes I wonder if they pay x amount of money to get the files from the og manufacturer's. Like some under the table crap.

So strange! And I have both the Atmistique original and the one that came with the SXK. Both fit well. I'll clean them out for you to see. Haven't checked with heads, not available here.

Just to be sure, that is the upper bridge for the Kanger drop in coils installed in a Kanger RBA.

I've seen some pics of great panels for the SXK BB here, but can't find many places that have them. In particular, not clear panels, but one that allows you to see screen and juice level.
Suggestions?
Provapes in the UK has some of the Sxk panels still in stock.I just grabbed a set this morning.If you use paypal,with their exchange rate fee,my panels came to $37 and some change after shipping.Also look on Ebay,there are some pretty nice 3d printed panels that have the cutouts for screen and juice window,they run about $30 too.
