Is there any long hollow 510 pins out , with holes on the sides , say for a small RDTA type like the ivogo velocity RDTA , so the 510 can refill its small tank , that also would be nice. Since this little velocity can put out some nice flavours at low w , be very interested in a 510 that could allow its tank to be refilled ,even a long one that reached to the ceramic deck would flow back into the tank or wicks ,

Think i may need to strip this down an get measurements of the length of the 510 if possible , would be Nice rather than having to refill it constantly, having a longer hollow 510 pin would solve that problem Hmm ,

I've had the same idea. Might try making one myself. But, no, you're not going to do that with off the shelf hardware as far as I know.

I am waiting on a clone of the Snapdragon 1.5 , many requests into FT for that and the only other one i am interested in is the No Pity No toy clone but not available yet.

The Origen little is the one that i have coming currently , just way too many exceptional reviews on that one & nearly impossible to find a negative.

How do you plan on converting the Snapdragon 1.5? Not a straightforward switch to BF.

Maybe there is already a list and ive missed it ?

There is a sticky list on the REO mods forum that may be of use to you. It's been a long time since I checked it, but the info was pretty sketchy for someone like me who isn't familiar with all the various styles & whatnots. Hell, I didn't know what that black plastic thingy that came with our Coppervapes was for, until someone mentioned a 'chuff cap.' Huh? Oh, I mean, sure. Well, of course! :eek:

Elsewhere in the liquid feed forum, there lives a thread about converting a theorem to a bf gta, maybe the fdv pins work for a cleaner conversion.

My biggest complaint about Coppervape is a little one. The juice hole in the BF pin is very small @ 1 mm dia. Squonking high VG juice (max. VG for me) requires a sustained effort.

Yesterday I tried to replace it with a Fatdaddy M2.5 squonk pin, which has a 1.2 mm juice hole. It works much better for me. Only problem is the head is thicker than Coppervape, 2.5 mm vs. 1.1 mm.

I will either grind down the Fatdaddy head and keep it, or drill out the Coppervape to at least 1.2 mm.

    For a 22 mm single coil, NarDa. Quite good with a smaller coil. Though I'm liking NoPity with a BIG SS single build even more.

    ETA: Oops, I forgot to mention you have to convert it to BF.
    This one comes with the BF pin:
    $9.35 NarDA Styled RDA Rebuildable Dripping Atomizer - 316 stainless steel / 22mm diameter at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
    Not as large a hole, as a FD pin, but works.
    Just finished modding 3 for more air, and eliminating the whistle.

    Let us know where you find it. That could be a good one because of the bottom air (my favorite).

    I don't know of any clones out yet just the original but i checked again about bottom feed.

    The best feature of the V1.5 is the ability to quickly swap out the positive pin to switch between a regular and bottom fed RDA. Unlike the V1, your basically getting 2 RDA for the price of one which is important for those who love to squonk or those who want to try it in the future.

    Theorem Bottom Feed!!! (With Tutorial)

    @TheWestPole Heres the link for the theorem bf gta, he cuts the insulator, id like to know if the fdv bf pins could save some work (btw, the quadflex is not going to be convertible to bf gta, i looked into that already)

    Thanks. If I get what you're thinking, no, the FDV pin would be too short.

    This modification is interesting but way too funky for me. I'll post here if I go ahead with my attempt.

    Wow. That's kinda a Pricey Little Guy.

    For the Cost of that Snapdragon, you could get...

    4 Coppervape Mods

    Plus

    4 NarDa BF RDA's

    Plus

    4 LG HG2 18650 Batteries

    Plus

    One 12oz RC Cola

    :p


    Another site shows it for $115.00 but i can say with absolute certainty i will never spend more than $30.00 on an atty and it has to be great to even spend that .

    My RDA's are all clones .

    Yeah... $170 (or even $115) is sorta out of my Price Range.
