I have one of these mech mods. I won it in this contest here - *New* Contest hosted by The Vapor Station: Best One Liner Joke. I am pretty hooked on regulated mods and I intend to keep using them, but I would like to at least be able to use this one once in a while. See, without The Kick VW'er installed, an 18650 is not tall enough to use, and neither an 18350 or 18549 will fit correctly. I'm not really even sure where to put the kick (above or below the battery, or even if it matters..) The kick takes up a bit too much space, and I'm not able to thread the device together.. I have looked at a few Youtube clips, and browsed thru a few threads here trying to find a solution, but if anyone can help me, that would be great. Of course, I could just call Vapor Station or ask @eric himself for some help..

Put kick between the battery & the 510.
Is the 510 adjustable? If not contact vender, don't put foil or slugs in to take up space. Very Hazardous..

I put it between the 510 and battery at first, then I put it before the battery just for the helluva it. No difference. The kick is not adjustable, I tried. I think I just might have to contact the Vapor Station. Thanks daviedog.

Well I did get it to work for me finally. I used an 18549, which I had tried before, but this time I remembered that I would have to not use a section of the tube, that for some reason I failed to realize at first. Quite an interesting device says I. I still plan to use regulated mods more, but I like this a whole lot more..

Take the kick out and rock it like a mech mod should be used!

Loose the kick, brush up on ohms law and build accordingly.

With a mech, you dont need a kick.

I didn't want to use the kick, though I did want to use an 18650 sized battery, but now I can't (and aren't) use (using) either!

If you leave off the kick ring, 18650's should fit.
Is there an adjustable pin in the top cap? To stop battery rattle?

The kick is back in it's box where I intended to keep it anyway, and I'm familiar enough with safety and knowledge issues. I know how to push the right buttons on a calculator anyway!

What kinda tank/RDA are ya gonna use on it?

There is only one pin in the top, battery to atty, and it's in a rubber grommet. I haven't tried to forcefully adjust it, and I most probably won't. An 18650 fits in, with almost 3/4 of an inch empty space! That's enough room for a lotta rattle!

I use a Serpent Mini RTA, and still have and use two different clearo's that I'm quite fond of.

The ring that the top cap is on should come off. That would be the kick ring.
Here's a break down pic

Here is what my SL (clone) looks like. I have inserted an 18549 and do not use the 3rd from left 'tube part'. The second from left holds the battery/atty pin, and the first from left MUST be used since the 510 threaded connector is there. It seems to me the only solution to be able to use an 18650 is to get a kick that is adjustable (in length). I could take the battery contacts of the kick I have and build an adjustable 'spacer' myself. My neighbor has a welder and copper laying around.. I guess I have reason to get a tap-n-die set now..

 

[somdcomputerguy]

Oh, and thanks for all the responses and assistance I've gotten.

 

[Ben85]

There must be a ring attached to one of the tubes that you can't see. There is no way that mod has been made without the ability of it to be used with a straight up 18650.

 

[somdcomputerguy]

You know what @Ben85, you are correct! I knew that my eyes are certainly not as good as they used to be, but I took a second (hundredth..) look, and 'tube part' #2 in my pic above is separable. Even on the second look I could barely see the line between the two, but thanks to you an 18650 and my SL will meet!

Great news! Enjoy.
