Well I appreciate that observation on the flaring because it's been a seriously annoying problem with both the original and aftermarket replacements I've found. But since I realized the significant likelihood of 510 shorts with incidental ground and moisture faults I haven't experienced the burned grommet syndrome with any frequency. That's what motivated me to join Metalhed's thread in the first place and focus discussions on build and termination symmetry. So in a manner of speaking having an insulator that masks that, although seemingly desirable from a taste point of view, would also tend to hide build inefficiency. And of course that effects flavor in it's own way…it mutes it.
Just a thought Taf because we tend to ignore what we can't see, taste hear, etc. if you know what I mean.
I got my first silicone assembly this past week and haven't built it yet. Trying to see if I can get to it tonight.
Good luck.
