I should mention I have been using the gold plated positive contact for a couple days no noalox and she is hitting like a champ . I have tested it with flat tops to seems to work great with them as well

That pile of cream was gold plated? How did I not know about this?

I blame the parents.

I hope rob puts a limit on how many one person can order so everyone gets a chance to get a sub ohm kit

Don't worry James. I'm going to order 1 more than what I need just in case. If worse comes to worse, you can buy it off me at the next meet up.

I may not even charge you the shipping cost since I'm going to have to pay it to get mine anyway.

;)

Hi Rob,

What would be the maintenance involved for these new contacts? I presume a pencil eraser is all you need? :)
Maintenance should be very low .

Use an uncoloured (white) pencil eraser to remove the dirt and tarnish from the gold & finish off by removing the rubber "chaff" with a piece of soft cotton cloth

Some people use Deoxit
Don't for any reason use something abrasive on the contacts . I no there will be people that are going to do it and wish they hadn't .
I am sure there other methods for cleaning the contacts .I dont claim to be a master of contact cleaning I am sure I will learn more as we move down the road

Ron, What are the buttons made of. Nothing has been said that I have seen in the thread about these. Mine keep melting.. lol
The buttons are made of PolyEtherEther-Ketone melting buttons wont be a problem with the new contacts . I could have stuck with the delrin honestly but I wanted a button that could handle a hard short
