Copper Foil Tape with Conductive Adhesive 1/4inch X 36yards

Did you notice this...

"The tape has a 0.025mm (1mil) thick copper foil layer with 0.04mm (1.6mil) conductive adhesive layer giving a total thickness of 0.065mm (2.6mil). Each roll is 1/4inch wide and 36yrds long. "

.025mm = .001"

That Copper Aint too Thick.

That Copper Aint too Thick.

But the aluminum or brass of a CV is, & conductivity is proportional to mass.

I have the Coppervape, the tape, & the volt meter, but I expect the voltage drop would be insignificant with tape. I will therefore ignorantly accept my preconceived beliefs rather than test what I know. Any more knowledgeable attitudes are false news.

I'm Perfectly Happy with the way my CV Alum works. Don't really see a Need to buy and then put Copper Tape on mine.

But if someone tries it, and they Think it works better for them, then that's Cool.

There it is, plain as day.

Awwwh. Now I Get It.

Where'd you get an alum. CV?

 

[Train2]

They're all aluminum! Except the brass one...

Where'd you get an alum. CV?

 

[oplholik]

FT,s info says they are SS. I need to do a scratch, and sniff test.

Bought it Direct from Coppervape. And got my 2nd and 3rd from fasttech.

Do you believe fasstech or us?

 

[oplholik]

LOL! I think if several of you says alum, I would believe you.

 

[muzichead]

That's what I don't get about putting Adhesive backed Copper Tape on the CopperVape? Seems like any Benefit from the Copper would be Defeated by the Adhesive.

This is exactly the reason I mentioned the circuit had to be complete from the -end of the battery, (point A), to the -end of the 510, (point B). If you don't have a solid connection from point A to point B it is a broken connection and no one can grasp that. If it is broken anywhere in there it is doing nothing at all and it falls back onto whatever the body of the device is, aluminum or brass...

@muzichead

Thank you, but where is point A and point B and are they solidly connected?

 

[muzichead]

That Copper Aint too Thick.

And that is why the threads slice right through the tape...

Let's just call it Stainless Steel Styled.

 

[oplholik]

Sounds good to me.

 

[puffon]

The battery cap is SS (I think?)

Let's just call it Stainless Steel Styled.

Yeah,that's it haha.Although from a bit of a distance,it could kinda sorta look like Stainless.I forgot about seeing Ft having it listed that way,so i can only assume they don't have a clue haha.
