I suppose I should mention this.
Shenray has two different GT4 clones out, three if the Ulton is made by Shenray.
The one labeled Shenray SRG v4 shares no interchangeable parts with the authentic GT4 but at first glance looks the same.
Others labeled "Shenray Typhoon GT4" (or Ulton GT4) appear to be 1:1

Finally arrived, Taifun Box!

Dicodes chip inside of a box built like a tank!

This is pretty sweet!

Edit...sorry, no idea why the photos uploaded through Tapatalk didn't go through, but here is one of the setup.
Looks great. Where can I get one?

i'm about 5 years late to the game and just picked up a clone gt for 5 bucks. it's the best atomizer i have ever owned. it never leaks, and is perfect for my style of mtl. i am thinking of picking up some more up to date models with air control. are the newer models as leak free?
The GT v3 is an excellent vape , easier to build an wick not tried GT v4 yet , shame they went to 25mm on it ,

The GT4 is a step in the "different animal" direction. I suspect it could easily be "tamed" by plugging two air holes on each side of the outlets.

I never worked so hard to give someone my money....yet, after 7 emails and half a day, I was eventually successful in giving intaste a small mountain of dough for the gt4. I've loved every Taifun so far except the BT which I passed on for obvious reasons. Pretty excited.

I think I need to post sort of a warning. Fasttech has just put up a bunch of parts for the SRG v4 but they are adding Typhoon v4 to the description also. While I don't own a Shenray Typhoon v4 I believe these parts listed today only fit Shenray's SRG v4. There are no parts on the SRG v4 that will interchange with the authentic.
I believe that most if not all Shenray Typhoon v4 parts will interchange with the authentic.
I do have and Ulton Typhoon v4 arriving this week and will check for interchangeability with original parts.
I'm told the the Ulton and the Shenrey Typhoon v4 are one and the same.
Example: $2.78 Replacement Block for SRG V4 / Typhoon GT4 RTA Atomizer at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

I received my Ulton GT4 "styled" today, I didn't do a total tear down of my authentic but from what I see it is a total 1:1
The bottom of the positive block of the Ulton has the o-ring around the air duct (unlike the one pictured above)

Does the Ulton Clone perform as well as the original? I want to support the authentic company but it's a shame they construct their atomizers with 304ss as opposed to 316L like the Ulton or most other higher end German products (Svoemesto still has my heart lol)

That thing is gorgeous. Any complaints? I seriously CANNOT decide between the Taifun Box or the new Dani Box Mini... One of them will be mine soon though!

Hi all
New member and i have few questions for Taifun owners
Ordered a Taifun GT4 genuine wich hopefully will be with me today and I am very exited as having a Rose v3 and very happy with my MTL and micro coils with tobacco flawours at 12mg to 18 mg nicotine ... and I understand Taifun wiould be more airy and would like the idea to change sometimes from my restricted MTL to more open DTL with Taifun GT4
Now my questions are what kind of wire to use with my new Taifun ?
Clapton coils , triple kanthals ?
With my rose v3 i use single wire kanthal at 1 ohms to 1.2 1.3 and with Taifun would like to go 0.4-07 ohms and of course with lower nicotine and hopefully some more clouds :)
Sorry for my english
Thanks

It is a much different beast then the rose and is really going to perfom better with thicker gauge round (22/24) or Clapton wire like a 3x28gx36g or a 2x26gx36g etc
