Russian 91% Clones or the real deal???

Got 3 clones and 1 original, one of the clones is OK not on par with the original but acceptable but two are crap and showing bits of rust and the stainless steel is poor also, threads getting worse. Guess you take a chance or pay for quality first time round, wish I hadn't bothered with the clones to be honest, you live and learn.

Who were the clones by if you mind me asking
 
Lol yea any feedback is great appreciated :). Before seeing the replies I had another stab at it. Much better experience this time. I've dropped my ohms from 1.8 to 1.3. Was aiming for 1.5 but these things happen lol. And in this build did raise the coil much higher than last time. Flavours coming thru. Still not the omg experience I hear people raving about. I'm not dissing them or the product. Just my own coils lol. I've taken some pic so hopefully get them uploaded to show tomorrow. I'm kinda like meh at the moment. Thought my evods would be in a draw about now gathering dust. Still 50/50 about my go too vape. Be interesting what I grab when I go out tomorrow
What coil do you have in your Evod?

I think it's still early days for passing judgement on the Russian/Kayfun ... it'll get better as your builds improve.

The thing to remember is a couple of years back people were moving up to RTAs and RDAs from CE4's and pretty shite Kanger coiled tanks. Today people can have microcoils and cotton in their Kanger tanks so the gap from that vape to first steps in RTAs is not as big as it once used to be.

I have a mate who won't move on from his Evod cos it's working just fine for him, he's no longer smoking and loves the money he's saving, so isn't interested in buying more and apparently better kit. He doesn't want any faff at all. Hard to argue with that.

I get yea. Its a 1.8 micro coil around a 1.6mm screwdriver with 28g kanthal and cotton
 
Coil Dia !!!

As scrumbox says, way to early for judgement, a kayfun/russian built well will blow you away. I've not found any other tank style, that can equale the flavour and simples construction. It's the really poor clones that give bad experiences. H Cigar on average are generally good. Bit late in the day to suggest where to get an excellent clone, but next time, i can recommend products frome matt at M-Vapes.co.uk everything i have from him has been brilliant (and he's a forum member). Anyways, sorry i'm rambling ! What i would like to share is, feel your 1.6mm coil is to small, won't wick enough juice. I would say min 2mm, i find 2.5mm dia drill bit, gives fantastic flavour, at around 1.5 ohm. Just drop a couple of wraps from your last amount. Hopefully, you will find that ellusive kayfun experience ! Enjoy :)

Thanks for the tip :). I'll experiment with it and try out a larger diameter coil :)
