If you want a red drip tip for your black Subox tank, you can get them cheap at Fast Tech.
Yeah, now that I know extra black o-rings aren't included in the kit, I'm kicking myself for not ordering a set with my smoked glass from FT.

Guess it just gives me an excuse to make another order. Lol

BTW, Has anyone noticed tracking info included with FT's shipping upgrade to USPS Express ePacket via China Post is bunk? The tracking info I received from another vendor in China using that same shipping method worked flawlessly and the item showed in 6 days from order! Maybe they entered # wrong? No biggie, just curious.

Silicone..? Ehhh.. Even though it's still questionable, I'd feel safer with teflon/delrin.
While silicone is known for for it's stability at relatively high temps, I'm not familiar with any studies on off-gassing. But it is widely used as insulators in coil heads. I guess something to ponder...

I mean, I'm pretty sure plastic needs to be heated pretty hot to produce any gases, and I think by that time you'd probably taste something pretty foul, but it's something to ponder.

Yeah... It is also used in things like Seals and O-Rings.

Ha, yeah that's pretty true, I didn't even think about that.. But I imagine my drip tip gets hotter than my o-rings. That said though my drip tip RARELY gets hot, I need to really be chain-vaping to pull that off.

*I have about 6 of these guys. In both black and white. :p

I have been relentlessly searching for this style in anodized without the the grooves cut into it to no avail. Thankfully, the Subox includes a Delrin one. To get really nit-picky, I would like a black anodized aluminum one a bit shorter but not as short as a derringer style. (say, about 13mm exposed when installed) Seems like a simple request, but is an all elusive one. The one that was included with a black Paragon V3 mod would be perrrrrfect! It's really bugging me to the point that I'm considering buying one just for the tip. Does this constitute vape insanity? Lol
