Where can I get a Valkyrie hybrid clone?

[Cromeus]

Hey, I'm sure I'm not the only one who thinks the Valkyrie is the most gorgeous hybrid to date. I see clones on Alibaba with a FOB of $20x5 for a sample order, so I'm sure there must be somebody somewhere reselling them. Anybody got a link? fasttech still doesn't have them.

Please let me know if you find a vendor that sells the clone. Thank you.

Still no luck.

Valkyrie Hybrid Clone - Eciggity

Won't ship to Canada.
I've contacted vapcigar to ask how much a shipment of five would be.

Vapcigar quoted me $30/piece for small orders, so I asked them for 2. The fastest shipping was another $36 though, but it's still cheaper than having somebody else import them for me and charging double and then shipping on top.

Ordered another 2 from J-Stream, $21.50 a piece and cheaper shipping. I'll let you know which clones have better threading and all.

Each company is sending me one brushed with polished highlights, and one polished. The J-stream ones actually aren't drippers, but rather a dual coil Genesis with a glass tank, so it's more like the Russian 91 vs the KFL - took the original and added features.

Hybrid, glass tank, dual coil Genesis mod? With a freaking awesome form factor? What's not to love?

It's a pre-order, but hey, it links to a US Vendor...

Those look pretty good; dripper like the original, but I'd like more pictures on the site.

I'll likely be ordering the clone from Eciggity (great seller) sooner than later... will let everyone know how it is. From the pictures it looks great. I also really dig how their clone has no logos.

So they arrived, and I think they're all from the same factory, lol.

Two of those are from vapcigar, one from J-stream

Have you had any of the buttons get hot on you? I think the real thing had that problem. I'm really tempted to pick one of these up, but it would be useless to me if the button gets hot because I like to dabble with the really low ohm set ups on occasion.

Threw two 5 wrap 30 awg coils on it, .4 ohm, no button heating.

Idiot that I am, I tried dry firing a factory coil without checking, and it shorted and fried a brand new AW 1600 =\

Factory coil aside, it seems to be a very well manufactured device. The tank section alone is made up of 20 individual pieces, and can be switched from genisis to dripper by inserting two plugs. The threads are fairly clean and large, the lock mechanism is smooth, the screws large and flat bottomed.

The o-rings are extremely stiff, so the airflow control doesn't turn without effort, and if it weren't steel, I'd have worried about breaking something taking the double sealed. I replaced the airflow orings with something softer.

One of the three satin units came without a foam wrapper in its box, and has cosmetic damage.

All the steel wicks preinstalled make contact with the bottom of the tank, which caused a hard short.

Some odd looking clones... they have straight tubes with no curve... the one from Eciggity looks almost identical to the real one minus the branding logos.

And I agree that they look better as 1:1 replicas

Though the built in tank is kinda neat...

Yeah, though I haven't used it yet. I'd have liked to have seen RSST style short protection, but that's just me being bitter about not checking for a short before firing the factory coils

Was very jazzed to see these come up on my browser recently. Saw the Eciggity first then the one for Sunny Vaping. Got an order in from Sunny for the dripper version. I understand people feel differently and strongly on the 1 to 1 thing with clones but for me, on this device, I gotta have the engravings on the body. Waiting to hear if the button has the proper engravings as well, but don't care either way on that point. The body, it's lines, the contrasting finishes and yes those beautiful wings are, to me, a perfectly realized artistic vision. If I didn't have to be responsible monetarily I would buy the original in a heartbeat. Still may end up with one if this clone sells me on the worth of dropping real money into a hybrid dedicated dripper. PErversly I hoipe the answer is yes and it does ... as Todd said of it in his review "this is one posh piece of kit". For those looking I will also say, personal tastes aside, I have ordered from Sunny a few times now and they have yet to leave me anything but happy doing business with them.
