BA, those look great... I have a Poldiac too (noticed it in your sig) and I love it with a 350 and a Halfling 22 or the larger batteries and a Standard. Eventually I will pick up some more mechanical 18 series mods, Love the VV and VW stuff but the solid feel of the mechs and what should be lifetime use if well built make them attractive.
The Poldiac is still being shipped to me but I'm excited to get it. I love VW as well that's why i generally use my mechanicals with a Kick. The best of both worlds.

Andy, I looked but they didnt seem to be in stock. Is it a magnifying glass and tweezers rebuild? Those things seem impossibly small to be RBAs.

Dang, they were in stock, yesterday evening. I was planning on ordering 2 more, today, when returning from church. They sold out again. Konstantinos should have them back in stock in a week, hopefully.

It's like setting up my IGO-Ls. It's 2mm silica wick doubled over and a 3/4 coil wrapped around the silica. The only difference is, non resistance wire is required at the ends of the coil for the positive and negative connections for optimum performance.

No Problem buddy, The Mrs will pull it and issue the refund right now though it might take a little while to show up. It will send you an email from the system that it has been cancelled.
Thank you. I'll be placing a bigger order here in a few hours. I thought I had more in my cart when I placed that order...glad I caught it before it was shipped or I would have been surprised to only see caps.

Yes we will be adding a gold, probably after VapeStock... too much going on here right now to be getting much extra stuff done.

Familiar in name only with the ProV tank, would you happen to have calipers ;)

Darn, I was afraid you were going to ask that. My caliper is back in the Bay Area. I'll see if my son has one, here.

Because in the last couple months we in vegas have had a rabbit breeding of B&M's open up and each one ive gone to they see your tanks and love them and it doesn't help when I push your wares /ducks so you will prob be getting quite a few inquiries from vegas /ducks again :p

Heck TJ, theres no way we would ever take a swing on someone for promoting our tanks... well The Mrs has been slightly disagreeable lately and she does have a black belt so ducking might not be such a bad idea :)

We are just going like crazy here keeping everything moving and trying to put things together for VapeStock, I was just kidding with The Mrs about putting together tanks on the plane. Sad thing is that I know after VapeStock, VapeFest is going to be like right around the corner and we went and booked Vapetoberfest which is only a month after LV... dunno what we were thinkin there :/ We will make it work though :)

OCD, as streamlined as your tanks caps are, is it possible to mill in a recessed opening to afford a flush fit for carto flanges? I ask with specific interest to the Diver device, as it is made with a round flange at the base. There is a company, whom offers this option for their bottom caps. However, their caps are quite bulky.

There is no material left there Andy. I have thought about doing something like this as a new bottom only cap but then you have a top cap and a bottom cap doubling parts inventory. We are going to be recovering from our last additions which are the three Drip Tip styles to match our anodized caps, 19mm anodized caps and 4 more colors for all of the anodized parts making a total of ten over the next couple months. In total our commitment on the above and the Stainless parts being made is approaching what one might expect to put out for a small house so I have to tread lightly around the Mrs for awhile.

We will continue to listen to our customers and do what we can on offering what you folks want. Device specific bottom caps has and will continue to be a big blip on my radar.

I can tell already that the Diver and your tanks aren't going to get along on most devices due to that flange and the gap it leaves. It will be fine on the Poldiac and Nemesis because they have a space around the 510 connection that will allow the flange some room. And to a certain degree the 69 Mod will be fine due to the air flow controller. I still think that your tanks are perfect the way they are...but a separate bottom cap for flanged devices would be awesome.
