Don't know where this year went, but as they say, the older you get the faster time goes, and for me they are flying by.

jup.....but even when my son was in HS time flew by for him. I think a lot of it that we're just wayyyyyy busier than when we were young. We didn't run around like chickens with our heads cut off so much.Don't know where this year went, but as they say, the older you get the faster time goes, and for me they are flying by.
Don't worry, time will slow way down waiting on the P67.
Done a little test on the soldered spring ideal.
Used an older Grand with gold contacts and spring "non adjustable 510"
Charged AW 2200 mAh 18650 battery @ 4.19 volts .9 ohm coil.
Soldered the crimp on the bottom as well as where the spring makes contact on the top side.
Paint removed where spring plate contacts the mod, every point of contact to the mod and spring was cleaned with Deoxit cleaner followed with Deoxit gold.
Two 2 second test lowered the battery to 4.18 volts so that was calculated in the second test with the soldered spring so nothing was changed.
I got 1/100th of a volt difference!
What exactly are you measuring Bob?
That your battery discharges 1/100th of a volt after a 2 second burst is not a measure of voltage drop i've seen widely used.

The voltage drop difference between the soldered and stock spring was 1/100 of a volt.
I was just saying the battery dropped from 4.19 to 4.18 after testing the non soldered spring.

Hey Bob, since this would be offered based on request from very low ohmers... any chance of testing the welded connection on a .2 ohm? minimum of .4 ~ .5?
Even that is above what i normally do these days (on other mods), but the reo already does mighty fine on a 1 ohm resistance. .9 is pretty much the same.
Wanted to give you this link.....it's for the reo lounge. it's a great place to just visit, chit chat and talk about anything and everything.

Hammer tone will be one of the colors I will use on the P 67s . Keep in mind the grand doors fit this mod
I'm hoping the KW green will be one of those colors.
I'm kind of fond of this mod by Eddie Adams.
