Is the 510 pin that comes with CV adjustable or a way to make it adjustable?
I like the color of brass but the aluminum should be lighter in weight.
Before I order is there a noticeable difference in weight of brass and aluminum?

510 is not adjustable as such, but you can use shims to raise the centre pin if needed. Brass is very heavy, mine stays at home............

yes Aluminum is lighter than Brass, not to mention conducts electricity much better ;)

1) The CV's 510 can be adjusted to remove gap by turning them from underneath using the 2 holes.
2) They can be adjusted to make contact with short attys by adding an O-ring.
3) There is a big difference in weight between the brass & aluminum.

VERY noticeable difference - the brass, ROUGHLY weighs as much as THREE aluminum mods would.
NOT a shirt pocket device :D

    I'm debating on getting SXK Halady,another no toy clone by SXK,SYMJ BF-99 and a SXK IAI V2,but I'm not a big fan of dual coil atomizers.
    I prefer a center single coil or veratis style deck like the no toy.
    Does any of the above make good single coil atomizers?
    I'm thinking the BF-99 might do good with the air flow holes more in the middle.

    I've got a SXK Halady and a SXK No Toy. They are both good RDA's.

    For Flavor though, I prefer the NarDa over both of them.

    Personally, I found the iAi pretty bad - can't really explain why, just not a great vape.
    I WOULD recommend an Origen Little -all the chinese sites have them.
    Tiny; great flavor; restricted lung hit down to MTL; and single or dual work well...

    Also - Hadaly is really BUILT for single coil - but down the middle with air from two sides...
    Narda, too - to me, that just seems like what they were designed to do.

    I've got a little Origen.It took a while to dial it in but for MTL with higher mg it's great.
    I think fastech needs to update thier search because there's many BF RDA that don't show up during searches with BF,bottom feed,squonk RDA.
    I'm glad you mentioned NarDa.I decided not to get dual coil no toy and went with another no toy,NarDa,and coppervape kit in silver.I was going to get just the CV mod without RDA but for 6-7 extra I got the kit.
    I also got the V2 repair kit for coppervape in case I decide to modify 510.
    I'm going to have to use classifieds so I can get rid of perfectly good equipment that I don't use.

    So far I've had no leaking since installing the FDV bf contact pin.
    An unrelated problem I've started having is inconsistent firing. I seem to have to hunt for a place on the button when pressing to get a good contact. If I remember right, there was something about installing the button back a little ways in this thread, I'll see if I can find it and give it a read.

    I just ordered the Aluminum CV and a few extra tanks.
    Had to get another no toy RDA and try a NarDa.
    I'm curious if pico squeeze bottles fit this?
    Every thing ships next day except the extra bottles.
    I'm curious if they'll ship everything at once or split order.
    I don't believe the pico squeeze bottles and the coppervape bottles are interchangeable. The Pico corks & the CV screws on.

    If you're in a hurry, perhaps you should split the order yourself. An extra shipping cost is pocket change.

    I started getting the inconsistent firing with mine,and all i needed to do was clean the 2 surfaces where the top and bottom meet together,and snug up the screw in the button a bit as it had loosened up a tiny bit.
