The side button is awesome. Really never have to worry about it firing in a pocket even unlocked but the locking sleeve works great! I think I want a real one!
I prefer a side button mod. I have a few now, Poldiac, Roller, 69 and, a Silver Bullet.
I wish someone would build a Dingo clone with tubes for 18650 + kick. I like non-telescopic.
I like my 69 clone but I have to fiddle with the top cap and 510 pin alot. And with a Russian on top it is freaking LOOOOONNNGGGG
Aren't there a few sigelei's with top mounted side buttons? Are any of them decent?
well, I decided to go the same route as a lot of you guys and put a copper pin in. hits even better now! nice low voltage drop 
I think among others, #20 but it had issues which were fixed in subsequent releases.
I thought about getting a Sigelei #20 version 3 but, there almost impossible to find!
Which version is this? It's only $13 so I almost don't care.
That locking ring around the button is ugly, but again....for $13 and a domestic retailer.....
CLEARANCE - Sigelei 20 - 101 Vape

Ah ha. Kind of a bummer. Guess I'll pass.
it's a version 2 I believe. but, theres a reason its so cheap
ya, I think that's a good plan. it is only 12 bucks but, it would be nothing but a pita I think....
Heh, yeah I hear ya. I sure don't need another PITA.
I got enough of those without inviting more trouble.
Good lookin' out, I appreciate it!

added some removable blue lock-tite to the threads and it now is solid and works great. Needs 24 hours to fully cure then we will see if it survives the pocket test in one piece.
I want to thank everyone here in this thread for their contributions, I have had the Poldiac Clone from FT for a while now, and it was in a box in the bottom of my vaping gear as I couldn't get it to work properly.
Now with the fixes I found here in this thread and topped with a Kraken Clone, it looks pretty snazzy and is working well too!!!!

The Kraken DOES look pretty great on top of the Poldiac.
Here's my clone combo.
edit:
yeah that is a pretty bad gouge on the button. i haven't really tried to polish it out yet.

Yeah, a couple tweaks and some conductive grease turns the DaVapes into a working device.
Now I have to work on the 69 clone, can't even get it to fire but haven't taken it apart yet.
I have one of the very first Sigelei #20 and never had any problem with mine, other than nothing would sit flush and that bothered me.
I sanded down the top 510 ring until it was close to flush, then shaved out some of the plastic of the switch housing with an x-acto knife until I got the RSST to sit flush. Unfortunately I never liked the RSST so that combo is not in use any longer.

I have the 69. It's kind of a pain to fiddle with. The 510 connector has a habit of backing out causing it not to fire. I remember when I first got it it wouldn't fire either but it didn't take much to get it to work. I wish I remember exactly what I did to . be more helpful to you.
You can always hit me up with questions. I can use my 69 as a reference to help you out.
