So this left my dwindling collection today. It was my last remaining Templar.

    Oh damn, Im a big Templar fan. Took me forever to find one, but I eventually did. I heard they also made them in full brass with SS accents? Idk if thats true or not.. would look cool though.

    Oh a couple different kinds, nice. I do like mine, its same as yours, SS with brass. Mine is #239, and it has a Paps X spring in the switch because the first time I took the switch apart, I could never get it back together without the spring binding up. I had read other people had switch issues too so It didn't bother me too much.

    piano wire? I play the piano and teach piano- now it's being used for building coils? hell i have a factory in my house

    LOL. I don't know if it's actually used in pianos. And I was wrong to call it piano wire - it's music wire, whatever that is. I think it is basically just bendable spring steel.

    I picked up an Artistic Wire Coiling Gizmo from a local hobby store, but it only had two mandrels in the wrong sizes for vaping. I ended up picking up some "Music Wire" from the local Ace and bent some into the shapes used with the coil gizmo.

    So how many high end mods do you have to own to be part of the the HEM crew? I want in. Lol

    hem is an invite only forum. they have open registration on the 1st of a month, but not all months. i'm not a member myself since i don't really like the idea of invite only groups, but i hear they are a nice bunch of people there.

    a bit about the copper cartel LE edition:
    the button feels pretty stiff but i like it...in general i wish it had a few more threads for the screw to adjust- considering that copper is a soft metal it worries me a bit that so much pressure and movement is happening while being held together by a single screw with 3 or 4 threads- silver over brass into copper...
    here's the real fun.....
    my copper cartel self fired twice within a week- both times with a Sony VTC3 in it...
    first time i set it down, (my button is always flat with the surface so it's not user error) - i noticed the tobh firing so i ripped it off in time...
    second time- i left the cartel/stillare in the car while working, came back to a smell of rotting food- opened the glovebox and went into a frenzied panic! the wires were melted, the insulator was partially melted....mod was ridiculously hot- i think i got to it just in time for an ultrasonic cleaning and a rebuild, lol, and a change of battery....
    a few minutes longer and it would need to be sent in for repair....
    i spoke to cartel about this-
    i blame the tears in the wrapping on my Sony VTC3, as well as the loose wrapping at the bottom- probably an over used battery- the cartel mod doesn't have an insulator and the battery sits snug within the walls, especially toward the bottom taper of the mod...
    after a good cleaning, its all good-
    cartel was cool about it- if it happens again i will send it in for repair- i switched to using efest 35A purple only for the cartel/stillare and so far so good.....
    I MEAN- WOW! I WAS SCARED MAN....LOL.....
