LT Metal End Caps

[Lex0r]

Does anyone know of a vendor who sells metal end caps for the LT? I don't mind the stock plastic ones but they feel a bit cheap. Any info is greatly appreciated!

I've read that the end cap from the Buzz pro fits the LT. I haven't tried it but another member said that they did with success. Here is a link to the cap. Buzz Pro bottom cap Brass ALL METAL - notcigs.com They also have a chrome cap as well but they are sold out at the moment.

I think another issue is that you have to change out the spring to a smaller spring. Here is a link to a similar thread. http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/lavatube/258909-alternate-end-caps-chinatube-2.html Check out post #17.

Thanks! Has anyone tried this? Not sure how I would change or modify the spring on a metal cap

I just used the end cap from one of my Buzz pros on a Ver 1 LT, Ver 1.5 lt and the stainless LT that apollo sells. It worked on all three. The spring was tight screwing it on, but it worked. What would be better, and what I'd like to do to replace the bottom cap on the ver 1, is to get the caps that are on the chrome and SS steel LT's. But I don't know where to get one. None of the vendors seem to have spare parts for any of the chinatubes.

EDIT: I hated the nubs on the ver 1 chinatube bottom caps. I cut the nubs off with toenail clippers. Much better.

EDIT2: I also put a bevel on the ver 1 top cap using a bench belt sander with 100 grit. That gave it a much cleaner look. (much like the ver 1.5 top cap, but retaining the juice well)
