Stingray X - 1:1 Clone by Infinite INTEREST THREAD ~ $40

[fcreeves]

Hey pal I think we now have are own personal thread.. LOL

LOL...Yes, that is it. This threads original purpose is dead. It has some interesting reviews. Some fantastic features as well.

I just started a conversation with you about that new Titanium Wire. This might be the new craze? We'll see. There are a few in stock, but could be gone in minutes if this stuff takes off. This could be as big as rayon. I am convinced on the safety aspect from the technical aspects and composition of grade 1. I look forward to your opinion as I am certain to respect it and welcome your thoughts.

Dunno who makes them but saw someone on a FB group selling 1:1 Stingray X clones for $25.

@Garemlim. I push newer vapors to a regulated AND a (singular) mech. I personally only have one mech now as all my gear has been heisted twice. I will probably vape it forward or sell it very cheap when this one arrives. A one mech rule is a good one. At this point in the game, along with all my gear disappearing twice, I can probably stick to that rule now as these new SX chipsets are where its at...and the future. Note: this model in a 26650 would not count though;-)

I went through a mech faze. Had 4 or 5 at one time. It started turning vaping into a hobby. Sold them all off. I have a paragon clone inbound and I got it to use strictly for my dripper. Have no need for multiples. If I see one I really like I will more than likely sell whichever one I have at that time.

I was just talking to another Stingray X fanboy about all the release dates and maybe that a few of these are all the same MFG...the release date is also the same shipping date as the FastTech Stingray X...SXK...HERE is a link that Sparks posted. He also told me today that there are other Vendors with release date of 16th?

If you look at that CodeVape's picture and at FasTech's picture, they look the same. FastTech's is probably what it looks like when you get it, and CodeVapes looks like after a much needed cleaning.

Plus..Cigreen release date...Hmmm. All the same? I look forward to same comparison reviews. I hope the FastTech initial release is the same? Have to wait and see.

 

[fcreeves]

I hope everyone cancelled the FastTech order this morning and went with the NEW OFFERING as the black box stuff has usually been the quality stuff...for me anyway. I think this is more likely the SXK...Infinite. Silver plated copper contacts & tubes have more seem-less look to the tubes.

 

[Garemlin]

And then there is this one from Focalcig for $23.30. Doesn't appear to come with the drip tip though. Looks like everyone is starting to sell these.

Stingray X Style Mechanical Mod

 

[fcreeves]

The focalcig looks as if it's the same as the first FastTech X Ray. Man, as popular as this design is, I hope we see a 26650. ...and a ZNA SX 100-200W 26650 design

(I'm stoked about Yihi 200W Dec release)

A wish of mine was granted...just what I needed to jump on the 26650 bandwagon.

Yes, the Stingray X 26650 is out there.

Just an FYI, FastTech replied to me that they will contact their MFG for the Stingray X Clone and request this version in a 26650.

...I need a reason to start getting some 26650s for future devices as I it seems that my cloning wishlist items have been appearing lately...such as the Aethertech Orchid and the Ray X 26650 (need SXK version now.) I am hoping a high wattage ZNA like 26650 with an SX3xx chip appears next?

i just ordered the sxk stingray x from focal ecig on monday and it is arriving today.

Wow that is fast!!! Be sure to post your thoughts.

 

[Alan Woltemath]

Wow that is fast!!! Be sure to post your thoughts.

been messing with the sxk stingray x from focal ecig this evening and i must say it is by far the best clone i have ever purchased. The button has no wobble, true silver plated contacts, hits like a beast, and came with not a single blemish on it. It came with the drip tip and hybrid adaptor that works flawlessly. The button right out of the box was perfectly smooth. Threads are amazing but had a little gunk on them, once i cleaned them they were superb. Every thing about this mod screams quality. I haven't held the original stingray x in my hand but i can't imagine it being any better than this clone. I went back to buy a couple more and they were already sold out. I am going to keep an eye on the stock so i can snag a few more of these sexy pieces of clone.

 

[Garemlin]

Stopped by my local vape shop today and they had the Infinite Stingray X. Had a chance to play with it and I gotta say I really don't like the way the locking ring works. It is kinda wonky IMO. Other than that it is pretty sweet.

 

[fcreeves]

I got an email a couple days ago from Helen @ Infinite trying to push the Black Stingray X.

I left my laptop charger in NY, so I'll do my best to upload a pic with the phone. Looks like bare copper contacts.

I'm still waiting on FastTech delivery of the SXK version...and a SXK 26650 version ;-)

Nice, I love all the perspectives. Just woke up after an afternoon birthday party and had lots of food & drink...Just after my NY trip!

Anyways, that reminded me of the old lady who lived in a shoe...

Instead of children, he had Stingrays!!!

I'm holding off on battery holders (unless a descent MFG makes a 26650!!!)

Got the EMech in, finally. Ordered IPV2 & Sigelei 100w.

I'm waiting on the Orchid clones to come in, and hoping that the KFL+ v2 body fits, or quartz kit?

If this orchids don't fly, I'm hunting deals on copper fogger v4.1's to mix n match for the Ray X....which is trying to leave China at this moment.

I'm really happy the way things went with X. I was about to buy 10 with my money. FastTech offering came out, ordered from FastTech, the order was delayed, and FastTech got the SXK version in time to cancel the first order. No matter what, I can't be upset, I know it's pretty and didn't spend much on it!!!

To be honest, I think I need to step back from looking at hardware deals and concentrate on lowering nic and making new juice recipes. Make a nice Capella order!!!

Really, with the Cana and the Fogger, I couldn't be happier for the daily vape. Magma, plume, & veritas on the Mech...

I am pretty content with what I have and what's coming from overseas.

I know I enjoy getting the vape deal as much as the vape... I want to try and enjoy the vaping without the vaping deals. I may have admitted problem? LOL. After tweaking the Orchids, and sending in the Sigelei payment, I'm going to try to take a hardware break...After buying a few LG HE2's for the EMech. I just came to this conclusion, epiphany, or moment of clarity today. ...I wonder myself if I can do it?

I'll post some likes or gripes on the Ray X when it arrives!!!

 

[Jaywizzz]

Ordered mine Thursday and just got it today. This is the best mod I've ever used and I have 3 copper authentics. This little badass m'fer hits harder than any mod I've tried short of an authentic caravella pure silver mod. I'm in awwe of how good it hits and how pretty it is. Best $50 shipping included, I've ever spent. I can't tell the difference between this clone and the authentic either. It is truly 1:1. BRAVO Infinite !!!

 

[Jaywizzz]

Oh hey FCreeves thought I'd mention I know where you can get that mod at fairly cheap, this place has some of the best prices around IMO.
http://www.fluidvapes.com/mods/stingray-x-mod-clone
Got the regular and the black for $40 and that's not real bad price wise, doesn't say who the manufactuer is but I know this if I was hunting for one I'd get the CiGreen one, it's the only one I saw that had the reverse threading and that is sold at On9Stop, not my favorite company but sometimes they'll do, have a 10% sale right now but not sure if they have the black your looking for

I ordered a CiGreen Aqua and Origin combo hybrid and it was a cheap flimsy material. The aqua was nothing like the og. I sent it back the next day. On9stop is off my book marks. Infinite and Hcigar are the only two except for FastTech that I'll buy clones from, and I have to carefully read reviews before buying from FT. But Infinite and Hcigar are on the money every time so far.

 

[fcreeves]

That's funny about fluidvapes, I've never ordered from them, but I met someone who truly endorses them, in turn, I have been as well since they are one of the few vendors, as of now, selling the EHpro Kayfun Lite Plus v2 Dual Airflow. I've recommended that with a Cana to a couple peeps as of late.

I still don't have my FastTech Ray X as $27.26 guarantees slow delivery!!!!

Mostly concerned about the last drop the Cana took and now have a 510 wobble.

Unless someone has a better option, I'm going to get a varitube 510 at a replacement.

It's still good, but I want to fix, the more that Cana case gets beat up, the more I love it.

I have the copper afc Magma coming in with the Ray X, and a matching Zenith 2 the same way should arrive soon as well.

Ok, just got the Ray X anticipation again...will post up pics...when it finally arrives.

Sparks, I like the EMech, tough, rugged, flashlight, charger...but it just doesn't vape that good.

Maybe it's the modulation, and the hum it emits?

It's ideal for on the boat or camping.

I love my Stingray X. I want a copper, brass, and black one now. F*** what anyone else has to negatively say, this little piece is the shizzle, my nizzle.

 

[Jaywizzz]

where do you add your Gots and Wants at? and how do I put my banner under my posts? IU'm new to the forum thing, and ecf never let me talk, so I'm sounding off like a mug.

 

[fcreeves]

I have no laptop at the moment, I'd give you step by step instructions if I did, I have a lot of updates myself. I started my vape gear from scratch a couple of months ago thanks to thieves.

Look for signature when you click your name or icon box...something like that I believe. Using Tapatalk with a lot of swypos until replacement power supply arrives!!!

i have the brass stingray by ehpro rockn a kayfun gold on it with a red n black driptip on it love it

 

[fcreeves]

There is evolution beyond the Kayfun

Go to your profile (click your name) look for 'signature' edit it...I'm on mobile right now, and not awake, tool around, you'll get it. Can't even see that on mobile.

LOL...see the ashtray in the second pic? I'm going to 'offer'...'give him'...the IPV v2 to him if he gives up the Newports! 2 pack (+ sometimes) o'day smoker.

 

[fcreeves]

Sparks, I like the EMech now, it's grown on me? Plus, I need to put the varitube 510 on the Cana, so she's on the injured list.

 

[Drift Monkey]

For all of you that have the fluidvapes (m mod) stingray x variants...are they holding up? I'm wondering if shelling out the extra dough for infinite version is worth it...

 

[maddvaper]

Absoulutely.

 

[Drift Monkey]

Absoulutely.

Absolutely get the Infinite or absolutely get the FluidVapes version?

 

[maddvaper]

Infinite products meet or often exceed the original "authentic" products quality standards as well as performance at a fraction of the price.I seldom ever touch a clone but I'll take and Infinite over the original any day,anytime.

Agreed. I think the SXK/Infinite version is probably the best. Seems pretty identical to the HCigar version with the addition of silver plating on the contacts.

I was stoked when I saw the FastTech 26650 Stingray X this morning as I thought it was SXK like the $27.26, 22 mm version, but it just has too many flaws and just can't be the same MFG. :-(

So the SXK and Infinite are the same thing eh? Which vendor do you recommend I order from?

When I emailed fluidvapes about their version they said it was by M MOD...so that one has me slightly leery...but it LOOKS visually the same...

 

[fcreeves]

Infinite gets some of its better stuff MFG'd from SXK. I don't think that Infinite actually MFGs. I have been noticing more and more SXK name recognition in more and more places. Not good for Infinite.

M Mod may get their stuff from SXK as well? To me the HCigar Stingray X version is on par with the SXK minus the silver plating. But we have yet to see if that is even a performance factor as my guess is that is probably the thinest layer of electroplating...just good enough to cover and eliminate copper tarnishing.

Looking at the close up pictures of the fluidvapes and examining my FastTech $27.26 version, I can't tell the difference. With that being said, I would order from FastTech if you can wait, and FluidVapes if you can't?

Someone else mentioned FluidVapes and said not to order from them based on some reviews.. be warned

 

[fcreeves]

I have read 3 or 4 good reviews for them? You could order & put your own review?


How many bad FastTech reviews have you read? That hasn't stopped me from ordering? I waited a month and 3 days for one of my deliveries. That's my worst FastTech experience? Note: my orders always get hung up in NY customs. That's my BIGGEST gripe.

they are saying the stingray X is not the good version, and possibly the older version as well.. I haven't ordered from them so I have no idea, just giving you a heads up lol. And most products on FT that have shitty reviews, end up being shitty..

 

[fcreeves]

LOL...yup. You have to cherry pick at FastTech... It's hard not to wait for the deals though. I just went through the reviews for the $27.26 Stingray X. I would take the bad with a grain of salt as there is some FastTech hate out there. Especially when retailers are trying to sell for so much more and they can't get even MOQ 10 @ that price... maybe now they can? I think most people probably don't clean and lube their buttons. I think that it is mandatory on ANY Stingray.

I can tell you that the FastTech Ray X I have has only one issue after cleaning and lubing the button...I have to back off the battery contact about 20 degrees, if I tighten it ALL the way down, it won't fire. That's the negative, in the one I received. It doesn't bother me one bit. Everything else IS all that.

I don't always go with what they say anyway. Would I have spent the additional cost of the Focalecig version...possibly, Depends what I was vaping at the time? But probably not for a mech, an atomizer is more likely. I spent $24.99 @ Vapetasia on the first Tobeco Orchid and could have cancelled, and got another $19.95 version, but didn't...probably should have, but I look forward to seeing if this is a whole different lot or not? Don't know why, as the screws and tool still probably suck? LOL

In the end, its still just a mech. If I can get equal machining at a better price I will. I messaged someone I know who has the HCigar version and said he ordered the Fastech version. He pretty much would be the ultimate person to ask for a definitive conclusion of what the best Ray X clone is. I'll let you know if he replies and what he says.

Hey Sparks, if you are up to it, it may be beneficial to post your X thoughts over at this thread:

and let us know if you do a dual or trip battery set up as well...lol

 

[fcreeves]

Also Sparks, HERE is a photo, not the best, of the copper emblem on my FastTech Ray X. There is engraving on the copper. HERE is a video review close up of a different mod with similar copper engraving. My FastTech engraving is similar but more subtle. Is your Cigreen the same? Can you post a close up pic of your engraving on your Cigreen Ray X?
