Regular Igo-L vs Fast Tech Igo-L

[stayinwonderland]

Got one of each recently and been comparing.

Regular Igo-L = FLAWLESS VICTORY

Fast Tech = almost identical, only flaw being the tightness with which the top fastens to the base. Regular version pops on and off with the perfect amount of tightness, but you need to fasten the china one on to a device that you don't quite mind if you yank the whole top off your battery. Apart from that it's totally great.

Regular Igo-L is my fave dripping experience thus far. It's like a reliable mate who never lets you down. Prefer this to the Phoenix/A7 as that one keeps trapping wick when screwing the top on, making me paranoid that I'm inhaling little severed pieces of wick. But the Igo you just negotiate any long wicks into the top and you can actually drip straight into the hole. A7 for example has an air hole that can easily allow juice to make its way to your battery.

So yeah, try one of each, just get a pair of pliers and an old battery for the FT one.

Just to add to the above

Fasttech igo-l topcap is slightly larger and slightly different shape and the air hole is a tad larger also the centre post has a different insulator

Both great and both worth the uk RRP.

My genuine (at least I thought it was!) IGO-L has a very stiff cap too, even when screwed onto a battery you have to give it a damn good yank to get it off.
I bought it from a UK vendor a while back, and I don`t think FT and the like were knocking out clones at the time.

Ud igo-l on the v3 and fasttech igo-l on the k100 red.

As you can see different sizes and finishes both are good quality but I prefer the ud version as its air hole is smaller although the pic looks opposite

The igo-w I have on the sigelei 19E is the ud version but I put the driptip from the igo-l from fasttech on.

I've taken the bottom O-ring off my regular and fasttech Igo-L, makes it a lot easier to take the top off.

mmmreeeaally? *strokes beard* I might just give that a try. Can't be doing with the constant threat of breaking something every time I want to get the top off.

Cheers for the tip

For a couple of weeks I had just been pushing the topcap over the top O-ring only, to make it easier to remove then last week it dawned on me to remove the bottom O-ring. Worked a treet.

I found the Fasttech Igo has a slightly brushed finish to it and it looks really good on my Magneto.
