Technically, oxidation is what is causing your voltage loss, Precious Metal plating doesn't oxidize, so in of it itself, it prevents voltage drop by not allowing oxidation. Heres a complete explanation on why Rhodium and Palladium work so well:

Cool - Thanks for that David.

I may treat my 26XXX's, even if it's just because the contacts look so pretty on the website. :)

Hey guys,

Just poking my head in here for the first time. I am the proud new owner of a Precise Simplicity 26650. I got it last week and I absolutely love it! The threads are smooth as silk, and it hits very well! I went with the ribbed finish and I love how it looks!

All in all I'm very happy! I usually can be found in the Vapourart forum, but i look forward to being a part of this one as well! :)

Have a great day guys!

Hey there!

Right at this moment I am running the slant top cap with a 22mm authentic Tobh Atty. I am using an MNKE 26650 which seems to be a good battery.

The only problem (and I wouldn't even call it a problem with the mod itself) I'm running into is that there's a very small gap in between the Tobh atty and the top cap, even with adjusting the center pin in the mod. Now I can't adjust the o-rings & washers down as there were no washers installed when I received the mod. Right now I have one thick and one thin O-Ring installed to prevent battery rattle. I tried removing the thin O-Ring, but the mod auto fires then.

I don't think this is the mods fault, though. The Tobh has a very long 510, so that's probably why I'm getting the gap. There is virtually no gap when I put my other attys on the P/S.....

Here's a pic of my setup... :)

I've noticed the 26650 is a bit finicky with battery positioning, those MNKEs apparently don't help. They seem to vary a bunch, I have two that I bought at the same time, one I have a heckuva time getting not to rattle and the other being able to screw the top cap down (all other things being equal).

Gotcha. Well I am happy with the setup I have right now, despite the small gap..... The MNKE's seem to fit OK for me, but I cannot adjust the battery "down" anymore or else the mod will auto fire (if I remove O-Rings).....It's OK though.....the performance of the mod is spot on....I really do love it! :)

If its outfiring, then you also need to adjust the switch throw that way you can run the orings that work and get rid of that unsightly gap. As delivered, it should have one thick machined brass washer on the switch post. (approx. .160 thick). Try first running three washers (they are .040 thick each). You can also fine tune the single thick washer (the .160 thick one) by flat sanding it down to any custom thickness you want (I made them of soft brass). T

Hello,

Thank you so much for the tip! I didn't realize that the thick brass washer could be swapped out for the thinner ones! My impression was that the thin washers could be added to the thick brass one, and that the brass one should be left in place no matter what. It is good to know that the thin washers can be substituted for the thick brass one.

I am no longer running the Tobh on the P/S 26650. Now I am running an APO on it and there is barely any gap. (the Tobh just has a long 510 is all). So I think the current setup is working just fine....thanks a lot for the info, though! :)
