Mine arrived at the ISC in Chicago yesterday. With a lot of luck I might get it this week.
I guess I'm in the 2nd batch from 3F. Anyone else had theirs ship recently from 3F?

When did you place your order, or more importantly, when did it go through Shenzhen sorting?
Also, for those of you that might want a bit different information on your EMS packages, try this link:

I did end up keeping my order from gearbest.com for the clone which has now shipped as of this morning. Unfortunately focalecig.com did not honor their Easter egg mistake so no HB Dna40 at that price lol. I however in turn bought the waidea VF instead and I'm hoping it will beat the VS clone here so I have something to compare it to. I wasn't surprised they wouldn't honor so it's all good.
Clone still sitting in "pre-advised" for the past 5 days, so yeah there's that. But on a different note my HB dna40 came in the mail and I'm totally enamored by the temp control. So even if this VS clone is a flop I have something else to rely on!
Just got mine and I regret it. It's the one from 3fvape. Not put together super well, the wireless charging is iffy and makes the device pretty darn warm. Tried dry burning some cotton at 400, then 300F at 25W, managed to set both on fire.
Update: After a day of use, it seems the TC has started working. Pretty happy with it now. Hopefully it doesn't randomly stop working.

Finally has started to move now. As for the cloned features of this particular type I'll probably just do the old fashioned battery change and charge on the nitecore. I assumed anyways there would be issues with that. I purchased mine from gearbest when they did have it in. Looks slightly different from the on 3fs site although I couldn't get them to tell who made it as such. Expecting it to be pretty much the same anyways.
Good to know. I'll probably be picking up the authentic. I'll wait till the kx-50D reviews though.
thats interesting as they explicitly state these boxes are tested for proper TP before shipping! Id make an enquiry with 3Fvape...

That's good to hear man! Maybe there's still hope in this world for it lol.
Absolutely nothing that I can think of. Same lemo drop with the same build I had in there yesterday, hadn't rebuilt it. Lemo ran dry today and I kept vaping it with my fingers crossed and it's working. Possibly something with the 510. I've taken the lemo drop off several times throughout the day and night yesterday to refill it.
My question for you is does the temp control on your particular clone work? What I mean to say does it throttle back the wattage when it hits that temp wall you've set it on? Seems to me I made a bad bet on the clone version on Gearbest (Don't know what I expected lol). After talking with Anita on Reddit about my type of unit she came out and directly said they took theirs off the site due to tons of negative feedback. Searched high and low for some review and managed to find one that had stated it doesn't show real time display of watts/temp. The reviewer also showed pictures of his rda using TC and unlike its intended purpose it just keeps going and going surpassing the temp wall he set. So once I get my unit (still waiting) I am going to see this for sure and take tons of pics so I can get my darn money back. Or if I'm lucky the damn thing will just short out quick like the reviewers did.
