Introducing... my bottom feeding mod (MyMod)

[paulw2014]

It's still on track to be released this month. It's a good thing I tested the mod for awhile because last month I discovered a minor issue with the firing button. When using a flat top battery, the button would travel too far down and the movement back up is not as smooth as I wanted. This is because the leaf spring gets bent at too big of an angle and therefore more of the force is deflected to the side as opposed to up. I just had to change the delrin part a bit. Nothing major.

Speaking of batteries, do you guys prefer flat top or button top? I have both and I can't think of any differences aside from mechanical dimension...

I'm gonna guess that the most popular batteries for your customer base are going to be flat-tops.

We're running things like
Samsung 25-R
LG HE or HG
Sony VTC's

Some folks may have and hope to use other batteries, some with buttons (like the AW) - but I think those are the most popular, and they're all flat.

95% flat tops

What Train2 said. I choose my batteries for their specifications. They happen to be flat tops in my case with one exception - AWs. But I don't expect to get any more AW batts in the near future.

Still, it would be good if MyMod can work with both types of batteries, just in case the Next Best Thing™ in batteries only comes in button top.

Flat.

You can always put a washer at the negative side of a flat top battery to give the extra height a button top would give.

That being said, I run flat top.

I mostly run flat tops as well. One mod I have I run a magnet in the neg side to decrease throw.

I use both. Some of my mods do better with button tops, some flat tops.

Mine used to get cut like a Marine recruit! My dad didn't want any of his kids to resemble those peace and love hippies.
