Thanks for the info rabbit, but I did my research on this a lot before picking this box up. It only happens on attys that are larger than 22mm, but I use a lemo (23mm) so I added a delrin spacer I made myself and that problem is no longer mine! also the painted cherry bombers don't the issue where metal touching the box and Atty will auto fire it in your bag/pocket. I still play it safe though and keep it in a pocket by itself

Please be careful tho, paint chips or scratches making it so metal can still touch metal

I did think about that!
Since it is being brought up, I was wondering if it would be wise to sand, prime and paint this thing myself? I'm not a huge fan of the design, so I was intending on painting it anyway. I got the black one because it was cheaper than the unpainted one. I have engine paint or car paint that I can use. Mainly I'm just wondering if that would cause any issues with connections or voltage drops. Im assuming it wouldn't as long as I avoid painting in the indented 510 connector area or at least kept the paint thin there.

Update: got most of the paint out of the screw holes. Both batteries are firing evenly after vapimg down to 3.7ish. Hopefully my fresh ones will do the same! Thanks for all the help
