As @JuicyLucy once told me, when you find something you love = buy 3 !!
...and I follow that advice!
Caution, the rule of "3" applies to most everything except girl friends/wives. For some odd reason, they don't get along very well and when they do, they'll gang up on you!:confused:
I need one more Cyclone and two more Haku.
Anyone able to compare the clone and the authentic Le Supersonic? Is the authentic worth the extra $$$?

Can't speak for the clone but the real deal is worth every penny.
With the Beluga cap it's just fcukin bliss.

The yftk clone I have seems to be 1:1 to my authentic even down to the squonk pin. I'll compare tomorrow and try to post some pics.

Hussar rda v1.0 not a review, just my observations so far

Comes in a nice little wooden container and the base doubles as an atty stand:
View attachment 102477

It's very compact and the cap is seriously reduced:
View attachment 102478

That little bowtie cutout actually fits down over your coil from topside. The deck itself has horizontal squonk flow from underneath where you tuck the wicks down a bit. Not bad to build on but if your going to use alien or claptons, that cutout in the bowtie is 8.5mm wide. Be sure to check the rda for shorts with the cap on after you build. Also I'm not sure how much of a bitch those mounting screws would be on the wider wire.

I went with 24g n80, 2.5mm, 6 wraps.
View attachment 102481

Airflow is restricted and smooth, not supersonic smooth but ok. I'd say maybe 1/2 to 2/3 the size of the haku at wide open(?) No whistle at wide open but when I close it down a bit, I get slight whistle. Sort of like the phenom bugaboo but in reverse.

Likes, dislikes. I love the flavor, the restricted flow, fairly easy to build on, nice build quality. Also the two smaller cutouts in the underside of the topcap act as a stop so you can adjust your airflow without the cap spinning too far, similar to the dead rabbit sq.
I dislike not be able to peer down in the top and watch the juice flow as I squonk. That's my biggest gripe personally. You can't see it since it's off to the sides and hidden... if you squonk too long, it will seep up onto the platform where the coil and air channels are. It could be a leaker unless you really test with cap off and get a feel for your squonk timing or use a more transparent cap.

Lastly, she's definitely a looker in stainless:

Even better in green ;)

Bottom line, I like it but prefer my supersonic and haku.
Apologies for my slack attendance in the thread the last couple days, I've been binging on Netflix, Babylon Berlin. :p

cheers
Can you toss me a link please?

I get that, but isn't the Le Supersonic the one people were complaining about crappy workmanship?

Yeah see that's where my bias is a little skewed, I got one with no problems.
I'd be pretty ticked off otherwise.
Lord Jesus Vaponaute shines down on me.

Hallelujah!

True, but it has more to do with the round edges on the upper outside of the topcap. It's really not that noticeable, although admittedly the clone doesn't suffer from it. My deck and screw/threading are fine. To be fair, it's also the rda that ppl talk about having great flavor and super smooth airflow.

For what it costs, it damn better be that good!

Agreed, and they don't even give you a drip tip. Thing is, it's an awesome rda. Probably my favorite of all I own presently. It drains well, I can see down on the deck as I squonk it, airflow is so smooth and quiet, great flavor and easy to build on.

Not to get into the moral debate of clone vs og but my thinking was this... it's a great rda for my vaping style so I don't mind supporting the designer/makers. There would be no clone if not for the og. But if someone is not in a position to spring for the og, then the clone is imo a fantastic way to spend 15 bucks. I don't judge, I vape.:)

I agree with supporting the og, but at these prices I feel more comfortable buying a clone first. Point in fact, I bought the SXK Haku and liked the way it vaped so I bought the authentic. I'm not judgemental in the least, my thinking is to vape what you can afford, as long as it keeps you off analogs.

Any idea where to pick those sleeves up other than with the kit? I’d rather snag a couple of those and stick with my Sammy 25Rs but they seem hard to find

Yup, just noticed and was edditing! There's a ton of them online! 2x700

I found one on FT but with CNY upon us I’d rather not wait until Mid-March lol. I JUST found the silicone one you linked to last night. Will definitely be grabbing a few of those for my next mod purchase.

Now if someone will just buy my damn white Orca!!

Yay! I'm number 8 on Neofet shipping list! Hopefully that'll be in first batch out this week!!!

I knew that fucker was going to do White after the Black-Ultem mods lol

Well I knew for a fact he would pump out the Black ones first, since he said Black is his favorite color haha...bastard.

You shoulda ran a group order... I'd have taken a few. No worries I'll wait for them to show up stateside, but I'm excited :)

Alright squonkers, I’m placing an order with Mod Maker. Anyone need anything? Hoping to get enough people to make the express shipping cheaper on all of us. Once I receive things I’ll send them to people. I’ve done group buys before so people can vouch for me. LMK!

The Royal Mail is £9.99 and DHL express is £29.99, figure if we can get enough small parts between a few of us it would be that much per person.
