How can i check authenticity code of integra?

Hello and welcome to the ECF. :)

Take the card with the authenticity code that came with your Integra and go to the VapeWare mods Facebook page and ask. VWM mods also has a private FB group, you will need an invite. I'm not in that group so can't help you with that.

Where did you purchase your Integra rta?

For the longest time they were only available through Facebook.

Best I can do for you is to have you go to the VWM Facebook page and ask for assistance.

You should have received a VWM logo card that looks like this on the other side. This one is Todd's as shown in his YouTube review.

To me, it looks like you have an authentic Integra. You have the grey box VWM Mods sold them in.

I do not know of any cloners who sold it in that box. SXK and YFTK (cloners) sold their Integra RTA's in cheap plastic boxes. Also, I've never heard of a cloner making fake authenticity cards and codes. But, I am not 100% certain, perhaps some other cloner did?!?!

This is the plastic box SXK's Integra clone is shipped in.

Man, I wish it wasn't so hard to get into these Facebook groups. I mean I get it, supply and demand. Small batches, short production runs, and all that stuff. Excusivity often means overcoming many difficulties in order to get something, and not just the pricetag. I mean, I hate everything about clones, but sometimes it's the only way to go for someone who simply can't gain access to the real thing before they are gone forever. The cheaper price doesn't justify buying a clone, in my opinion, but sometimes there are certain grey areas for buying one. And most of the time it's hard to even tell the difference between a clone and the authentic product. That doesn't mean I would buy one if the authentic product is still available, but what if you need the certain accessories or parts for an authentic product for some reason that is no longer produced? Then, what can you do but buy a clone? Jai Haze even said, in a video I watched recently, that he had to buy a clone because he lost the 510 adapter to one of his boro rba's. It's also harder than ever to know where something is actually made. A lot of the time certain companies actually have their products machined in China or something and hide that information, which is very deceptive. And these's nothing really wrong with outsourcing certain things in the production process, but not divulging that information and making people think everything is done in house, is a shady business practice and it pisses me off. This is not to say that places like China can't make some amazing, high quality, products. There are a lot of smaller companies with low production numbers that are based out of China that make some very exclusive and vey high quality products. For example, IF Mods, SSS Labs, YEC, Umbrella Mods, and YG Creations are some of my favorite vape companies out of China. Anyway, I'm just bummed that I can't get most of the vape products that I really want because I'm not very inclined as to how to go about getting them. I mean, the only reason why I even use Facebook is to try get into the right groups so I can get certain products, and most of the time I am too late to the game, too inept to figure out how to get into contact with the right people, etc. I know that no one will probably even read this huge tangent of a comment, but at least it helps me vent my frustrations.

    I don't know if I would bother to listen to Jai Haze though, if you want to buy his products you mostly have to be a paying member of his Patron.

    The Chinese can actually make quality, like everything else you get what you pay for, that applies from China as well.
    I myself do not care where it is made as long as there is good quality control before the product reaches my hands. Centenary Mods, Atmizoo and more get the parts made in China, they also go through the parts carefully before they are assembled.

    I use FB as an information about what is there and what is coming.
    On some FB groups you have to be invited by someone, while on others everyone can join.
    Some FB groups have had problems with scammers, which is why they are closed to new members.

    To buy through FB, the most important thing is to do some research, such as how the payment takes place. It is extremely important since crooks exist who create accounts to be the owner of the mod company. There are no owners who take personal contact with customers to sell their mods & attys.
