You're always gonna need some space for the switch and 510 connection, there's no getting around it!

If you're looking for one that the button doesn't protrude at all, I remember seeing a sigelei that has a totally flush button, and you have to push it up into the base to fire. I forget what number it is, but it's identical to the "Mercury" mod, which I suspect is just the Sigelei with "Mercury" engraved on it. :p

Thank you, Richard! I do understand that connection and switch take up space. My only problem is that it's so much space. Back when I was tinkering with making mods, the smallest mech switch I made for my fugly copper pipe mod was just under 1/2". Most Segelei and my K100 seem to be over twice that size.

I just want my mod to add as little height as possible to the battery :)

From what I hear, the Sigelei #20 (the Roller clone) is pretty darn compact. The button and 510 connection are all part of the same assembly, so that would be something to look at too. :)

EDIT:

Here's Todd's review of it:

He's not too kind to it sadly, but from what I've read it's not a terrible mod, and people have successfully taken the switch apart for cleaning.
