I felt like going with the Mini's today so anything that ran an 18350 Battery was in my bag.

Or the crazy voltage drops lol

I think lower tier mechs all suffer voltage drops - just gotta fix it. In for an iSeason right now (which, dude, im gonna rename. What kind of name is iSeason? Im gonna call mine the Anduril or something nerd-badass like that lol). Replacing the spring should alleviate the drop somewhat.

New vapemail today. And I did'nt pay 200 hundred and something bucks!

The spring isnt the problem, its the dumb manufacturer that chrome plates the BRASS contacts lol sanded them all down in about 10min and all better .

My pride and glory - "Steam Saber". A brass and black SaberTouch Kick Edition with a Jazz Carto Tank on top, resulting in what I think is quite a decent steampunk look.

VERY, VERY COOL! I love the steampunk look, and that mouthpiece, too. Almost looks like it's carved from tortoiseshell.

Started VaPing at the new year now I have 3 Mods the ProVari received 2 weeks ago .In for the long hall

Yeah, that is dumb lol. Which part did you sand down and how much, just so i know?

I sanded the 510 contacts, the pin that goes through the isolator all around and on the top where it contacts the battery, and just the end of the switch button where it contacts that post to make a connection. All parts were just sanded to get the chrome finish off and the brass to show.

 

[Kanj.nguyen]

Sanding the threading? Thats scary, i wouldnt wanna make it all smooth lol. Thanks for the info.

Went to my dads shop after work and sanded all the pieces till the brass was showing through and I could tell the difference on the first pull.

The button is actually SS, no need to sand it. The lock ring around it is plated but is obviously not a part of the circuit.

 

[vanillagurilla]

Not the threads lol just the top where it contacts the center pin on the cardo and the cap of the screw where it touches the top of the battery.

Sanded both ends of the top screw, the screw top that touches the battery on the bottom, all sides of the pin that contacts the battery pin, and the end of the battery pin. So far as I can tell that should be everything that's needed.
