Yes, sadly they are wrapping batteries and slapping on the AW sticker. The dead giveaway is the numbering on the wrapper, the vented button top, and the bottom. I saw a post on another site a little while back showing both the clone, and the authentic side by side. When I inspected my AW, I found that it is a clone and not the real deal. I will try to find the pic when I get a chance.

Got my Panasonic NCR18650PF's in the mail and immediately threw them in the charger. I can finally scrap this AW 18650 clone, and chuck my Panasonic CGR18650CH grey jackets in the drawer.

You live and learn. I have been doing a lot of that lately.

Oh wow, I got boned. Don't mind me while I blow up this here donut pillow to sit down on. Never again will I be ordering from eBay. Was my first time too. My Chi You has plastic in the top and bottom with brass contacts inset. :/ No wonder my K100 works better. I have only been using the Ha-Chi-You (bless you) with my iGo-W when testing juices.

Sweet setup! Does your Chi You have an adjustable pin? Mine does not, and I'm not sure if it is a real clone or a clone of a clone(lol, real clone).

How do I move it down? I can't seem to get it to lower. I'm such a mech noob GOSH (Napoleon Dynamite voice).

VAPE MAAAAAAAAAIL! lol, my Chi You clone arrived today. It performs just as advertised..... awesome. Threads are smooth as butter.

VAPE MAIL!

My EC Blends order arrived. i am stoked to try these out. Free sample of Dragon's Nectar too.

Those are some nice builds. It relaxes me as well, but I usually only get about 30 minutes tops to tinker with coils. On my days off while my girls are at school is when I can take a half hour away from cleaning and laundry to watch vids and experiment. Ah the life of a single full-time daddy.

Oh yeah! Welcome to the dark side my friend. It only goes downhill from here. I'm a rebuildable junkie, and haven't vaped from any other atomizer since I started. I'm a TWISTED freak. Mwahahaha. I don't have a problem. I can quit whenever I want, I swear. *wraps coil from a paperclip*

I don't do Instagram, but if any of you do, check out this Deedupdex guy. He has some INSANE coil builds. LOL

Once it gets too gunky for your liking. What type of coil are you using? When you dry burn, you should take out the wick and re-wick after burning.

125ml of Strawberry Overdose (formerly SFVC) from Dr Crimmy's. I friggin love this juice! !!

Couple builds I did this evening. Been a while with the .20 gplat cloud chasing builds so I dropped those and went with a dual macro clapton build in the brass monkee rda and flip mod at .55 and a dual macro tiger coil build at .35 in the zenith v2 rda on anarchist mod. Should both be great flavor builds.

My first go at the Volcano coil build. Dual 26g, 10/11 wrap, @ .4ohm. I used a toothpick to build with. Far from perfect, but it shoots the vapor up. Pretty neat.

Placed an order for some Dr. Crimmy's juice : 65ml bottles of Strawberry French Vanilla Custard, Southern Peach, and Kitty Milk. 195ml of juice for under $50. Let's hope the quality is as good as they say.

26g, 7 wrap parallel coils at .16 Ω.....

Rant accepted and totally understood. It's also one thing to experiment with a .08ohm build at your work station, while knowing the dangers associated, but it's completely another story when the local vape bar builds a .06ohm parallel coil on a customer's RDA when they have no knowledge of it and are basically new to mechanicals and dripping. This poor fellow happened to be my brother..... smh.

I always use the friction bending method for a nice flush break. I'm just a neat freak though.

Dayum! Lot of nice fancy builds on here.

I'm fairly new to RBA's but I'm hooked already!

Got a KFL+ clone about a week or so ago and built my first coil and am on my second wick config now.

I'm using 28g kanthal 9.5 wraps around a 5/64" brill bit. Came out right at 1.2ohms which is the minimum my vamo V5 will fire.


Nothing fancy, just a single coil build and SS mesh wick.

Not really a cloud chaser, but great flavor with a decent amount of vapor to go with it appealed to me



That was my second attempt at a mesh wick.. The first one didn't work as I didn't oxodize it enough. That second attempt I torched the hell out of that bastard and got her workin!


Here was my previous cotton ball build:


My next build should be a lot cleaner, but for now I'm pretty happy with the results and definitely hooked on the RBA's! I want a second one already so I can use more than one flavor at a time!

.2Ω quad coil using 24g Kanthal.... had to add more air holes on the top cap too...
