Well it's no MCR but it's decent enough, I can't say if it hits like Muhammad Ali as I don't really drip, more of a tank guy here.
The button has a big strong spring in it and no delrin like a Chi-You, so it can autofire if not careful, my Sony VTC5's were fine until I decided to take the switch apart, after I put it back together it started autofiring so I had to add some tape to the edges of the battery to stop it.
Looks like silver plated brass contacts top and bottom with rhodium plating. It's all about the engraving with this mod, it's no "competition" mod but it works as it should and looks nice, the threads are good and it performs as well as I would expect it to, I've only tried it with a kayfun and all is well.
I'm no reviewer so don't really know what else to say about it. if there's anything specific you want to know or anything you want a picture of then let me know.
My Aunt was in the Hurricane Hunters at Keesler and I had family in Jackson
Thanks for the info. Glad you found a workaround for the switch. I hope you continually enjoy it.

.I am really enjoying it so far. I appreciate your 2 postings that inspired this particular setup (copper cover for the origin V2 and Stingray X). This setup is really bringing on a nice smooth vape with plenty if flavor at .7 ohms. I really like the switch and can't get over the small profile. They are now out of stock at Vaperev.
I always liked the Gulf Coast. Congrats on the early retirement. If you decide to settle there and play in a band, let me know. I will have front row seats to hear you play.lived in Mobile and made almost weekly trips to O S to the old Harley dealership right off I-10. lots of nice folks around there and the Harley drag races were great. its where i always said i wanted to retire to. funny, i took early retirement about a week and a half ago
Got this interesting dripper from Neovapetek called the Venturi. Similar design to the Cats dripper. Still playing around with some builds but so far it's performing pretty good. When I get home from work I'm going to pop this bad boy on the MCR Hybrid adapter.

Hey StrikeIII, I found a place that stocks them and I'm thinking about buying one of these, how do you like it?
Picture of the KOI from Big Buddha I posted earlier. Apparently this is one of the few that he carved an actual fish on. The mod is fantastic, but would I buy, say, two authentic high-end mechanicals NOT carved and gold-plated instead? For the uniqueness, I'd say no - and the steep price alone has a psychological effect on me to motivate me to actually care for it.
Hits like a champ with the Patriot, and is less weird looking (although of course more gaudy) than the authentic ModZ I sold to help pay for it.

Bill! That's where I was working! I am a field service engineer for a medical instruments company, and the medical center at Keesler has one of our machines that broke down so I had to go fix it.....
This is my first time in Mississippi and I like it down here! A lot different from Boston, but it's nice! I'm flying out this morning back to Boston though....then onto the next destination!
Excellent, JP. I hope the weather was noce for you down there.
My oldest daughter used to work at the VA hospital in Biloxi and lived in an apartment building directly across the street from the HardRock Cafe. After Katrina, the building no longer exist. The last time I was there was about 2 months before Katrina hit. I hear from relatives, who live in Gulfport, the landscape has changed.
Safe travels, my friend and vape them healthy !!!

Well I can't say that the weather was great, unfortunately. It was windy and torrential downpouring this morning when I flew out of Gulfport....made for an exciting takeoff though!
I am now in Atlanta connecting to a flight to Boston. It is pouring here too! I think the whole southeast is getting drenched right now....
I do the horizontal coils above the negative screws with the cotton tails going into both wells. it keeps the negative end of the coil a tiny bit shorter.
Hey Tbev, I think there are three of us with horizontals on the origen now lol...all sauced up hehehe
Thanks Johnny. I really love the look of the Swan and of course love the fact I can use my Heron in hybrid mod due to the 20x1 threading.OOHHH, the Swan and the Ti, handsome mods indeed Bill
