This mod is absolutely beautiful IMO. I also got the flat top cap as well cause I think the original top cap is way too big. Buttery smooth threads was a plus, but when I put the flat top cap on, it looked weird (not straight), so I put my atty on and it's not centered. It sits more to one side of the cap. It also is not completely flat. It's sort of slanted at an angle. It's hard to explain so I'll show pics. It's not that noticeable but if you own a mod and the atty doesn't sit right then you know what I'm talking about. I hope I can exchange the top cap with a better one, cause it looks gorgeous, just not aligned and leaning to the side a bit lol.
So I put the original top cap on and did a voltage drop test on it... OMG 0.75!!!! I read all the reviews on this particular mod and people were commenting on how hard this thing hits.
I have a copper nemmy clone and on it's bad dirty days I can get a 0.32 voltage drop. I know it's a copper thing so I can't complain. I'm really not too sure about the voltage drop being bad at 0.75 because most of the YouTube videos I've seen show VD's of 0.1-0.2.
At the end of the day I still think the "King" is a beautiful mod and I am happy with it. Can't beat it for the price so I'm not complaining just telling my experiences ImageUploadedByTapatalk1414023858.262529.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk1414023870.658577.jpg

Scrub the threads and clean the contacts.
Also understand that most of that voltage drop is from the internal resistance of the battery.
Swap batteries, clean that mod and try again with a 1.0 coil.

clean or replace the spring. A deity or corrodes spring will hinder performance in kings and chi you mods

Got it. Just had to see what the voltage drop was straight out of the box. I just got it today and was super stoked about the looks of it. I might do a magnet upgrade if I'm able to exchange the flat top cap.
