For anyone using integrated tips - these are pretty good.
I've been using one of the chimney reducers in mine and it works well.

I've been eyeing those for a couple of months now. I even had them in my cart a couple of times. Although I was hoping they would work without any reducer. They might not, so I've been holding back.

    I like these drip tips - using them in 3 mods, no reducer installed.

    There are going to be 500 black ones and 500 silver ones and then they are going to be discontinued. They might be gone in a matter of minutes after being released.
    Hope you try anyway. I watched the full video after I posted - what a bargain. I love the raw aluminium version.

    There is a lot that is different from the classic dna 60.
    Good point. Looks the main differences are that they removed the onboard fire button and the onboard up/down buttons. BBV does a similar mod to their DNA 60s but they leave the fire button on. I guess Suicide Mods remove as much as possible so they can fit the pcb into the Stubby chassis.

    The smaller board is the Evolv DNA60. And it is piggybacked on another board that adopts the DNA60 to fit inside of a Stubby. That other board also contains the USB interface and the external switches. Which isn't unusual with DNA40/60 mods. But what is unusual is the whole thing can be replaced without the end user doing any soldering.

    DNA boards has connections for using external push button switches, instead of using the ones on the board. Can't tell if the internal buttons are still on the DNA board from the video. As Evolv said you can order them without internal buttons. But it would be a special order and that means you have to wait. I've never seen a DNA board without the switches. I guess nobody wants to wait. So they are probably still there on the Stubby DNA60 too.

    The BBV uses external push switches too. It uses an external fire button and external up and down buttons. Yet the internal push switches are still there and actually still work on the board.

    EDIT: I just noticed the internal push switches are not there on the Stubby DNA60 board. They might have been pressed when the board gets screwed down. So they had to go.

    That's right. If you look at the DNA board attached to the Stubby sled, you can see the four contact points each for both up and down buttons and the four contact points for the internal fire button - you could re-attach those buttons or not but the DNA still works the same.

    Apologies for my dodgy graphics. I just took this photo of my BBV DNA 60. You can see the internal fire button is still attached (unlike the Stubby release) and you can also see the internal up/down buttons have been removed, or were never attached.

    Yes of course I'll try. I did like the black one better at first glance. But I have to admit the raw aluminum one is slowing winning me over. During the second Stubby production run, they had a raw aluminum one they called Quick Silver. I got that one and I really like that one too.
