Done a bit of mixing and matching of parts between the no-name clone and the coppervape one. Now I have a completely working clone resplendent with working and fully aligned JFC and functional AFC where the ring actually works to adjust the draw. Indistinguishable from the authentic in everything but price. Happy days.

Yes, I swapped out the deck from the no-name onto the upper part from the coppervape one.
Well my CV clone from FT finally arrived after 4 weeks & with a 3mm coil the draw is just a little bit too tight for my liking.
This is with the airflow fully open & the 7-hole airpin.
Throat hit & flavour are spot on though as you'd expect, so I'll try a 2.5mm or 2mm coil and see if I prefer the draw.
If I use 3mm in a mtl tank I end up with a dark spot in the middle of the coil where the ariflow hits. A good sign the coils too large and not being evenly cooled by the incoming airflow.I always use a 2.5mm ID coil, and I think most people do.
