I have 4 coming from RTD, as I mentioned earlier. But I saw yesterday on FB that one of our local B&Ms has them in stock. I'm a little hesitant to buy from them, because they are known to carry old stock. The last time I was there, they were selling AW batteries that had the black stickers. AW changed to the silver hologram stickers over a year ago. So, I think I'll just wait for the ones from RTD.

This magnet trick worked out great for a couple flat top 14500's I had that weren't being used. I didn't like the throw on the button, but with the magnets on top I'll use them little batteries up now in my mini-mini's :) I think the cutout in the delrin helps keep the magnets in position, they haven't shifted at all even with some button mashing :)

One thing I've noticed is if there's more than just a smidge of deoxit between the magnet and the battery contact, it slips sometimes. As long as it's fairly dry between them it should never slip :)

I rarely saw any arcing in my entire career until I started to drop down to around 0.7 ohms and below. Nowadays, where my builds are - around 0.4, flat tops, wether treated with deoxit or not (contacts clean either way) arc every press of the switch. Button tops - not at all.

It may not be apparent unless you take the mod into a dark place and fire it and it's probably not happening if you are Vaping above 1 ohm.
I had exactly the opposite expierience crazy arcing with button top (LG he2s and Sammy 25rs) and none with flat tops of the same batteries... wonder what we"re doing differently
