No need for a video and I am very familiar with the mechanical workings of the switches. I'm glad you are getting new parts.

Shawnski! No no no no bro. The ones you were looking on the classifieds were the older version with the knurled ring and it had to be locked prior to being set down. The new version as King Perseas will tell you passed the drunken test 10/10 times as you will be able to set it down in the unlocked position and it will not fire!
Quoted from the site...
"The GP Spheroid has been prepared already except the finish. When the machining is done, we electropolish all the metal parts, then we polish them and finally we engrave them. From the coming batch, we shall have an additional finish, the bead blasted treatment which gives a non slippery, non reflective surface with good scratch resistance properties. This stage comes after the polishing and before the engraving. The GP Spheroid will be bead blasted in all its external surface. The other two styles of finish, the polished and the brushed one will become available in future batches."
Can somebody help me visualize this in my head:
Is bead blasted totally different from the brushed finish?
I'm really interested in the Spheroid with the bead blasted treatment but will it match the GP Paps 2.5 brushed that I just ordered?

In 1-2 days, I'll post pictures of the bead blasted GP Spheroid.
I post this photo of bead blasted GP Piccolo v3.1 just for reference. The GP Spheroid in the photo is a brushed one. The drip tip is a prototype GP vase, the final version is longer, in order to be convenient for people with moustache.
hello perseas, just wanted to let you know the replacement LUX button kit you sent me has held up its shine and no scratches from extending too far. many thanks again for the great product and the awesome support behind it!
Grabbed some standard cartomizers today. Does the SnP work with any other 510 atties besides the Diver or Killer?
Thank you for the feedback, I appreciate it very much
I haven't tested it with any other RBA beyond those you mentioned and of course, it is tested with the standard cartomizers, flanged and flangeless ones, they all fit inside SnP without any gap between the 510 connection and the mod.

Thanks for the response

So we are expecting time-traveling vapers from the 1970s?
Hahaha! Many people, myself included with quick grow of facial hair, if they have been unshaved for 2 weeks, a short drip tip might "catch" them, it is an annoying feeling. I should have used a different wording
I like your visualisation, time travellers from 70's enjoying GP Series mods, maybe a relic or a photo will be found and we'll be puzzled about its existence

I'm on the Greek twice-a-month shaving schedule as well, money saved on razors is better spent on vaping gear.

Hey guys. Quick question. I have a guy that does pretty damn good work with metal. In theory, and of course at my own risk, if I get a bead blasted finish Spheroid from the next batch is it possible to give it a brushed finish if I so choose? Or does the bead blasted finish make this difficult/impossible? This is in case I want it to match with my brushed mod (which my guy flawlessly did the brushed finish on). Thanks.
^far from it. its one of the best switches there is imo.
agreed with all of it, I had to do quite a bit of modding to mine to make it better.
Because you mentally are saying "dirty naked lazy susan waiting on the kitchen table for me...oh wait, thats me.
No TF.
I don't hate Nemmies at all, you know this and there is only one that almost deserves that title made right here in 'murica on ego alone.
I just wish the threading wasn't so thin and marked up by looking at it, and the button didn't sound and feel like I was crushing an empty soda can, and the threading wasn't tack welded in so that I can see it from the outside, and the tubes not being seamless is a deal breaker, and the finish on the matte didn't look like it was done with 100 grit sand paper in a dirt cloud, and the little brass pin in the switch that should be perm installed so that I didn't have to lose it again and spend 4 hours, 2 vacuums, 3 pasta strainers with 2 spot lights on a 6x6 area of new shag carpet to find it.
I Never put a battery in it. I'll wait till the beta testing is over.
I like those guys alot, they are very capable of doing better finishing work and they know it.

In theory it can be done, but the laser etched logo will be erased, while you can obtain a brushed GP Spheroid v2, if you wait the next batch after the coming one.
No, they aren't, but between the batches we have reports of parts that need replacement, because they have slipped our QC and the tolerance is very small in the moving parts. From the last 900 units of v2.5, we had till now 10-20 reports in which we changed parts or the whole switch.
I just now saw it, thank you very much for the feedback
