I don't know if it's been discussed within the beta group, but the 18650 version is already positively tiny!
Yes I love my 18650 Peko. As you can tell, cause I've got 3! I have a mini Reo and the 18650 Peko is almost same in size. Actually the rounded edges make the width smaller than the Reo. I use to love Reo.. but I sold them all buy my mini Lp to get more Peko! The 18650 Peko is already small, and you get awesome battery life to boot!

3d parts were due to ship today. Shapeways says could be as late as the 17th.

I found the gdeal youtube channel. Watched some gdna vids and a 1mm squonk one. Is squonking slower to feed than a reo? It looks it

did you get the strong white flexible or colored parts?
about the slower squonk - for me, that seems to be dependent upon the size of hole in the atty. when i squonk without an atty on the reo and the peko, i really don't see a difference.

just the strong white and flexible. haven't decided about a finish yet, maybe ink with a clear coat

That video shows a stock 1mm vented screw that is the generally available at vendors like amazon, etc.... The Peko Hardware Kits and the original kits people got from the Co-ops have a custom 1/16th" vented screw (~50% larger).
George needs more coffee. :D

For flow, what matters is the area of the hole (which goes up with the square of the diameter) and the ratio of that area to the tube's inner surface (which is where friction occurs, and that inner surface area only increases linearly with diameter). Thus for the purpose at hand, 1/16" should be regarded as at least 2.5x "larger" than 1mm.

That's why you wait until the bloody things ship before ordering prints for big screens.

Put the cart behind the horse, and don't forget to fill it up with borrowed German money (that will never be paid back mwahahahaha suckerz).
You're really bad at being the Greeks spokesman aren't you?

Well, in this instance the difference in capacity is between a 6ml bottle and perhaps a 4ml and is not that great. For the Sun Box I have two of the new 18490 AW's in a box and 1 in the device most always. I carry a laptop bag with a touchpad and building stuff, juice, to the office everyday. There are two 18650 PEKOs and a BilletB in the side pockets. I can swap around as I like change batteries or juice as I like.

Truly, I just think it would be pretty frikkin cool to have a PEKO that would fit nicely in my vest pocket, a 14mm atty...a I ohm dual build..like that.
