Coppervape Skyline Discussion

[Rob Fisher]

I'm in total agreement, it really delivers and the quality's top notch in it's construction.
I'd be very interested in a comparison with the authentic by @Rob Fisher .

I haven't tested one yet...I have bought a few to test but mates have wanted them so I gave them away... I will get around to it sometime...

I had a go with one but dry burning the coil burnt the airflow insert and I got annoyed and gave up on it.

I currently run them side by side and the biggest difference is the tolerances which won't mean anything to you unless you have the authentic as well.

They say there is no such thing as a 'stupid' question ................. well don't believe it

I worried about just that when I built it as the insert seems very close to the coil.So far it hasn't been an issue.
I'm using the widest air flow and I'm thinking about going "bare back" next time. I've really been enjoying this one,just about my favorite single coil RTA alongside the Ammit.The vape's smooth and very flavorful. While I'm happy with my Skyclones' price point and performance, knowing what I do now I'd pony up for the authentic if the clone did not exist.

Not to speak for @Amir but I think he's referring to the machining I.e. threading and the way the parts fit together.
If this is so then the authentic is truly world class as I am impressed with the clones' construction.

It's overboard on the original, that's why you have to constantly lube the original or it locks up.
Been using my coppervape for months and never had it jam once.

For a stupidly priced authentic, That's not the sort of problem I'd expect to have

The skyline just feels more tighter than the skyclone with regards to the moving parts like jfc and afc etc

By all means... speak for Amir... you're a reliable source of information and Amir is currently inundated so thanks for handling that lol

My clone was DOA on delivery, the AFC was welded unmovable and I had to send it back for a replacement.
The new one FT sent has been fine though

Which one did you get, the sxk or coppervape?

Coppervape.

@Andre said. And it matches the SS Pico as perfectly.
I couldn't agree more so I wondered what other mods it would match

Pico



Kbox mini



Koopor



Koopor Black



Coolfire mini



Target mini



And now for a splash of colour
Mini Minikin


There you have it 'An atty for all Mods'

But the real PLUS is the Skyline can be wicked with your teeth


(Just a bit of fun)

It looks great on most everything, especially on that red and white Minikin.

I received my Coppervape Skyclone from The Vape Guy yesterday at Vapecon 2017. Thanks @BumbleBee fantastic service as usual.

My impressions:
The box is crappy. I am surprised that the tanks arrive intact.
Bag of o-rings and screws - great
Bag with 2 airflow pieces and tool - great. Some may like more airflow options to choose from.
The tank is fantastic. Solid and good quality. The threads are also excellent. Very smooth operation of all the moving parts.

I did not see any machine oil or anything but put it into the ultrasonic cleaner for 3 cycles and then on the dry rack.
Watched some Youtube on the build and assembled it this morning. I inserted the one airflow piece that gave the most airflow.
Put my build in of 0.5 ohm SS316L 26G 3mm diameter and did the wicking. I think my wick was a little to much but I closed it up in any case and closed the juice flow before filling. Opened the juice flow and saw the same bubbles as mentioned in the Youtube videos.

I took the first toot at 26W and I was so surprised.
The flavour is incredible. I understand why so many people love the tank for flavour.
The airflow was not as restrictive as I expected and the cloud was bigger than I expected.

All in all I am extremely happy with this tank so far and it is well worth the money if you are looking for flavour.

It was so nice that I chain vaped for a while and only realized when I saw the tank almost empty. Opened the top ring and removed the top piece and filled the tank. Assembled and then I saw exactly what most reviewers warned about..... Juice DUMP.



I could only laugh at myself. Next time I will remember to close the juice flow before removing the top.

Only one thing remains to be seen... does the tank leak?

You and I both found out it does when refilling with out closing the JFC. OOPS!

Well I'm delighted ............. only bought that the other day

What about on a DotMod

You have too many mods! Still looks the best and most balanced on the SS Pico.

 

[DaveH]

You have too many mods! .

That's true.

[Silver]

Loved that @DaveH !!
What a versatile tank
Never really thought of putting it on the Pico. Thanks.

And by the way, the juice colour matches the Dotmod colour

Hi guys, so i got my skyclone today and probably wicked it 10 times already but the flavour is just muted, running a 2.0 mm n80 fused clapton 7 wrap coil and the biggest air disk, using cb2 cotton but i just cant get the flavour right! Its so frustrating because i really want to keep this and have been super amped before purchasing, any suggestions or links that will help

With this tank, less is more. Use a lot less cotton than you'd usually use. You want a "wet vape"

 

[RenaldoRheeder]

Did my first build this evening. The small building space does challenge me, but fused clapton @0.46 ohm and she is a winner.

 

[Shibz]

Yeah bit higher ohms you'll get by using more wraps on the coils depending on size of wire 2 or 2.5 id will be shup and less cotton aswell and you will enjoy it much better.

 

[Jengz]

I threw in a 3.0mm id round wire 26 gauge n80, raised the coil to the top of the posts, .52ohm reading on the 75c and it’s a lot better, not anywhere near expectation but Flavour is coming through... just another question, I fluffed out my wick a lot and thinned it too but should it be a tight wick or loser than normal wicking?

 

[Jengz]

Oh and also so rude of me but thanks so much for all the advice, really appreciate it guys
