well my recent FT order arrived ( the one from oct 3rd still missing and FT still refusing to resend or give me a credit note the thieving bastards ).
anyway the dripper was an igo W from FT.
made the bumbarse mistake of not checking the full reviews first thinking it was an original.
sure it looks nice from the outside and good build quality, but let down by only a single tiny air hole and worse still no holes in the posts to feed the wire through and the screws on the posts are so bloody small it barely holds wire in place on dual coil build. ples with one airhole dual coil is pretty poor draw.
I could of course drill out the air hole but the thickness of the SS on this thing is solid and i dont have a decent enough dripp bit to get through it without ending up totally wrecking both the cap and the drill.

So saying all that im after a nice sub £20 dual coil dripper ( ive got the smok scar too and though its great the posts have a habit of coming loose.

so wondered about the IGO-W4. a bit funky looking i know but its a nice size for building dual coils, will hold plenty of juice when dripping and will look fine on my mod.
other than the igo though cant really find anything else out there that might be worth getting thats dual coil and 20mm wide

Yep, drilling out the second hole was a bugger. But something else to consider is that neither the posts or screws are stainless and will rust with washing.

Reckon I might try out one of the W4s soon but that might be after I've grabbed a Fatty V3...depending on how well ElsaBubs says it works :D
 
Love my w4 @Phantom Diablo , doesn't look too bad with the right drip tip!

Like a dream! No issues with it so far, very happy.
on par with an immortalizer if say.
 
sorted then and at about £15 quid good price too.. might have to wait until new year now though as every penny gone on xmas pressies and dont trust the missus to order me the right one
 
Mawsley let me know when you are ready to get one, might sell you mine save you a few pennies.
got my origen coming from usa soon, and a few other things in the pipeline ;)
fatty is great though, not really looking to sell right now. it looks so sexy on anything. ...i wish the airhole was a bit wider:P
