This is the Model T.
The Model T is a Genesis style device incorporating a few features I've wanted to add to a Gennie and still make it affordable. It is my goal to make the Model T, along with the mentality that went along with it's predecessor to be in every home and become the EGO of the Genesis world. Not so expensive that you can't buy one, but built with quality materials and they will almost never be out of stock (I hope). You could call it a hybrid, I call it perfection. This is just the start of this. I have submitted this to my machinist and he will get back to me on prices, but it's my plan to make this available for $100-$175! It has long been my belief that as a member of a community (vaping community) that we are to give to help and that's what this is. An affordable device for the masses. Features of the Model T.
*Solid aluminum construction for superior electrical conductivity. There will be no brass, no stainless, nothing but aluminum. The places that need it will be anodized, the places that don't, will be bare. As an anodizer, I understand the importance of electrical conductivity.
*NO THREADS. I hate having to thread a tailcap on, so I've incorporated the features of a BNC connector into the tailcap and the atty cover to quick connect with only 1 quarter of a turn. This will also perfectly line up the unique geometry of this mod.
*Tactile alignment of wick hole for no look vaping. Phil Busardo has recommended that we incorporate something (I forget the exact term he uses) to make it so that you don't have to look at the mod in order to line the wick on the bottom. This will have 1 singular dimple in the side for your thumb which will line up perfectly with the wick hole so all you have to do is feel and vape!
*Slotted center post for multiple coil entry methods. The slot allows for 3 different way for you to insert your coil into the center post. 1. in between head and washer like traditional center posts. 2. through the hole below the screw when unscrewed a little bit and 3. remove the screw completely and drop the coil down into the slot and then rescrew it back down on top. This is particularly handy with pre-made wick/coil setups as you don't need to bend the coil in order to get in in the center post.
*Adjustable height center post. This allows you to drop the center post entry points down for a 2/3 coil or up for a 4/5 so that your spacing in between the coils can be consistent no matter what you use. Just thread it down a little tighten up the nut below it and you've adjusted the center post to be shorter.
18mm battery design. Use it with your 18650, 18500 with kick. I'm toying with the idea of incorporating a shorter tube as part of teh design for 18350's as well, but it's my belief that an 18350 doesn't provide enough "ooomph" for a gennie.
The designs are already submitted and you will see a few changes to the design like a window in the atty cover so you can see the tank, finger notches in the tailcap and other really small things, but not much as I've already committed on seeing these made. I DO have experience manufacturing things and have been able to quickly resolve any issues that may arise so these are going to be done SOON!
EXPRESS YOUR INTEREST BELOW. I encourage questions and feedback.
I do have a drip tip in mind for this, just havn't designed it yet.
