Just FYI - These are available on fasttech now!

$26.32 Coppervape BF 18650 Mechanical Mod - authentic / stainless steel / 1*18650 / w/ 10ml dropper bottle at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

They were in stock in shipping this morning (picked up my 2nd) but it looks like they "ship in 7 days" now.
Hopefully they will start selling the other colors soon.I have the bare aluminum and a brass,but i want a black one too.I just don't want to pay the high shipping cost again,so for free shipping from fasttech,i can wait until they list the black one haha.

Yes, same exact pin ... well, tbh I haven't pulled one from the new atties to double check the length but they look to be exactly the same as the ones in the earlier atties so I assumed. I know that could get me in trouble but I still figure the odds are pretty good. :)

Won't hold you to it. ;) Good tip regardless. I'm considering opening up the ID on the squonk pin, and having a backup would be great.

Thanks, good to hear. That's how I want to use it, bottom air only. Look forward to trying it now. :thumb:
Yeah,i find for me,the bottom holes wide open with the top holes closed off is just about perfect.I have a set of 3mm stainless coils at .37 ohms in there,and it has been so good that i haven't even tried any of my other rda's on it.

Looks Great.

Just Curious. What type of Clearcoat did you use? And how well does it hold up to Hand Use/e-Liquids?

haven't used any yet. i just removed the stock clearcloat last week. i bought some spray semigloss. i can't remember the brand. i'll have to check when i get home. it says on the can for wood and metal for extra shine and to resist corrosion. we'll see! :)

Actually I like it better with the patina.

thanks! i don't mind the patina. but the smell and grime it leaves on my hands is not desirable.

I forgot about that part of the drip tip,i didn't like it at all,but i did like the look and size of the drip tip,so i took my dremel with a cutoff wheel,and cut that little splash guard thing off the bottom of both of mine.They work great after that modification.

Same here except I did it with a nail clipper LOL and used it on my black nuppin. Fits perfectly and looks and feels great

@zoiDman, I tried a big single on the second NoPity. Not too big, 4.5mm SS 24g 7/8 wrap, but with resistance about the same (~.5 ohm) as the dual Kanthal in the other. Vaping them side by side with the same juice. I don't think you're going to be disappointed. 6mm might be a better size for the air hole spacing though.

Too soon to tell which I like better, the dual or single.

That looks Very Cool.

I'm hoping that my NoPity arrives on Monday. And I have a Giant Single Coil just waiting to be plugged in and Vaped.

BTW - Sorry for not Replying yesterday. I rode 48.6 Miles on mixed hills/flat on a Road Bike. And did it in just over 2.5 Hours.

I kinda Blows my Mind that someone who was a PAD Smokers for over 25 Years, who had tried and been Unsuccessful to Quit Numerous times, and who would get Out of Breath going up 3 Flights of Stairs can go out and chase down other Riders who are for the most part 1/2 his age.

And this is what the FDA wants to Regulate back into the Stone Age.

That sounds like a blast. I've toured Britain and France on a bicycle, and 125 miles in a day was a pretty good run. Averaging almost 20 mph on mixed terrain is great.

The truth eventually will out on the benefits of vaping as it has in some other countries. In the meantime...:mad: You're from CA so you know we are the worst. That state funded anti-vaping TV campaign is just outrageous.

Yeah... Prop. 56 is Bad News.

And I am seeing almost No Effort by B&M's and Online Retailers to inform Vapers of what is going on.

I have even had some Vapers tell me that Prop. 56 is a Good Thing. Because it just Taxes Cigarettes. So More People will try Vaping.

:facepalm:

I built the Coppervape atty. Have to agree with @b.m. Actually very good. I'm using the bottom air only, and with a little restraint it's not leaking down the air tubes. I'll push until it does just to see, but the problem I anticipated has not shown itself yet.

DHL didn't carry my Coppervape into the woods, but they transferred the package to USPS when they got to the river.
From the only two O/S suppliers I dealt with and when I lived in a remote area I had to pay a bit extra for the DHL parcel what was termed remote area charge. The delivery was always to my door by courier I have never had it transfered it to snail Mail Au post. The only issue I have had was EMS post from china. It gets to Au in 2-3 days. Clears customs in a day or so. Then f.....g Au post does not treat it as an express overseas mail but as regular mail 6-10 business days delivery.

Moving foward tobacco free World!

Yeah,the restraint is the key on that atty.Eventually i'll get the feel for it on this one and not have to look every time,but for now,i still pull the cap every time haha.
Like i mentioned before though,it really surprised me,between the low air holes and the 24mm size,i was not going to even try this atty at first.I usually use 22mm small chamber rda's like the stumpy and derringer,because most of the bigger ones i've tried really didn't put out much flavor,but i'm glad i tried this one,it works very well for me.I did a set of stainless coils at 3mm,they came out at .35ohms,and it is great.

Hi everybody! My two Coppervapes are coming tomorrow. My Reos could not handle very low builds. What would you choose as the lowest ohm build for this mod?
On a single battery mod,personally i would not go under a .3ohms,that is pulling 14 amps off a fully charged battery,drop to a .2 and it would be pulling 21 amps off that battery.But i have ran .3-.35ohms since i got mine without any issue,using a Samsung 25R battery.
 
Yes. I was using the upgraded contacts. However, I experimented with builds around .15 and it melted the insides of the mod. I sent it for service, received it back in an almost brand new condition and never built anything below .5 on it again. On my tube mechs I always stay below .2. Usually at .13 with 30 amp cells but Reo's internals were not designed to withstand builds like these, I guess.
