What's up guys! New to the forums, but not that new to vaping.. So I've had my igo-w for probably ~8 months now and while it's a trooper, I think I'm ready to upgrade to a new dripper. Any suggestions and recommendations?

Already have a kayfun lite (which is amazing btw) so not looking for any of those styles..

Thanks!!

Can't vouch for the HCigar clone, I haven't seen one in person, but HCigar generally makes good stuff. Infinite is generally on a par with HCigar as far as quality. Every atty/mod is different though. I can say that I've compared a fasttech Magma (this one, to be specific) with the Infinite Magma, and those two to a genuine Magma, in person, and was unable to find any appreciable difference between the three.

I don't have anything else to compare it to (authentic or other clones) but build quality of the infinite magma seems fine. The cap screws on, unlike most drippers that have O-rings and slide on. The threads are smooth. The screws for the post are good. I didn't notice any burring or metal
shavings when I got it. I did soak it in some vodka for 15 min. before using just as a disinfectant. Can't really complain for $25. The halo top cap I bought for my igo-w cost me 20 bucks alone! I should've just bought the magma at that time.
 
Doublewesterncheeseburger - Totally! I don't know what it is about the igo-w but I could never find a sweet spot. It is a good cheap dripper to learn on so it was worth it for the learning experience. But now I can see what I was missing. One thing I don't like about the magma is it's making me want to buy another mod! I only have one mech and I use it with a kayfun during the day at work. I want a second mod so the magma is ready to go when I get home.

thanks guys, i've now got a magma on the way! and @eastwest tell me about it, i bought cap it all vapes fauxgatti for my igo when i first got it.. 24 bucks i think i paid!! it's really well made and all but still..

You'll absolutely love the Magma if you like flavour. It's really a unique dripper with the way the airflow comes up underneath the coil and the juicewell is MASSIVE. You'll be able to put 20-30 drops into it easily. When you do your coil build make sure your coils are positioned over the airflow holes. I've found that a good way to wick it is by threading the cotton through the coil and having the tails hang into the juicewell instead of stuffing the entire thing with cotton.

So I got the magma in and quality is awesome, haven't had a chance to set it up yet. One thing that I noticed when playing around with it is that the top of the airflow ring comes juuust above the bottom of the threads. If I screw down the top cap all the way the ring becomes pretty much immovable and not free spinning. If I td orcs it to spin then the top cap unscrews. I was wondering if it's supposed to be like this?
