I wish half of my screwups ended up looking that nice. Well done!

Thank you. What ended up happening is I mixed up my own dark blue and light blue, which by the time I finished was getting a little thick. So for some reason I am just unable to lightly mix in thinner. Long story short, my paint was running after pulling it out of the water, so I thought what the hell, I will blot it. Sometimes things just work out, wish it was more time than not, but my luck usually ain't so good....lol.

I got them both built and are working great. To me these are so more efficient than my vamo & vtr, that i hardly go over 10W. Going to start playing with some 28ga to get the most out of it. Dont know why i would need anything higher. Now off to finish my wood mod.

Saw the post about missing parts and i have an extra back, and light tubes,fuses let me know what is needed.

he bought 3 mods (18650) in the co-op and is in need of fuses, contacts, light pipes and screws. i asked him if he can get wire and t3 bit in india - we'll see

I had my first disaster with the tibs 2 today. I had borrowed one of Lisa's kayfun clones for some strawberry cream that she makes. When I went to change the atomizer later, it would NOT come off. I bent the small screwdriver ninety degrees trying(via inserting it into the air intake and applying torque). In the process, the moulded key that holds the 510 connector in place snapped off.

What I used as a solution was one of those itty bitty screws that Tibs enjoyed counting so much during the coop. Here is what I did, of course, not including disassembly or reassembly.
1. Used a small drill bit to make a hole in the center of the spot where the moulded key had been. I have no idea what size it was exactly, but when I measured the base of the bit it measured 1.15mm dia.
2. I had to grind it down by about half of its original length with a dremel tool.
3. installed the screw from the inside of the mod so that the threaded shaft of the screw penetrated up into the keyway.

i imagine i'll collect the stuff here to make one package - postage to india is way up there

Translation, the woman wants money! Like all women, just givem' our wallets and be done with it. Course mine has dust in it. :glare:

We can start a save the guy in India fund. Hmm, that might not be too PC.

I might be able to help also. I have enough extra parts for another Tibs (kicking myself for only ordering one :( ). I put together a care package of
2 - fuses
7 - battery connectors
4 - lengths of red wire (from proetus' coop)
4 - lengths of black wire (same coop)
16 - screws
1 - t3 torx bit
~3-4 inches of light pipe

thank you, salt! ;) remo4u just answered my pm - wire and t3 bit are needed. not sure why those are hard to get in india but that's what he says.

i had bought one pack of screws out of incidentals for emergencies and i believe i used only 2 or 3. if salt parts with 6 screws and the battery connectors we have that taken care of for the 3 18650s.

how much wire was needed for the mods and how many fuses? i don't want to go searching for proetus' co-op thread! :)
