[QUOTE="Rathamar, post: 18482615, member: 159313"] Yes they are the little plastic ones. So I picked up 2 of them, one green (first order), one black. The Green one definitely feels cheap very plasticy, the black one I picked up the second time feels much better in the hand, you can definitely tell it is plastic, but it has a nice rubberised paint on it that feels better. (The paint has already worn off under the addy). after about a month, it has held up very well. I treated this one the same as my solid mods and I have had no issues. Positives - [LIST] [*]DNA40 Board - awesome if you don't need to go over 40W (which is me :thumbs:) [*]Cheap ($20 for a DNA40 Mod) [*]Small - if it is more than 5mm taller than an 18650 or more than 10mm wider I would be very surprised [*]Connections are solid - no movement at all (after a month) [/LIST] Negatives on this (keep in mind that it was $20 at the time I guess he has a $16 dollar one now) [LIST] [*]It is not easy to swap out batteries. you have to pull the box off and then pry open the door to swap them out.
