Best bet is to pm Rob "redeyedancer" he very well could already have everything you need on hand and not have updated the stock on his website. He'll let you know everything that you need to know about the tubing and caps/orings.
I believe he calls it the "rebuild kit." It comes with all the stuff you that will need to be replaced, spring, extra tube, firing button and pin
Ordered this with my REOs. It's not as easy to send my mod back from where I'm at.
Burnt a couple of springs and replaced them. The rest are still A-ok.
I will restock the site today. If you have a grand from a resent order Dont bother buying a new tube the tube that is in it should last forever I cant imagine anyone breaking it.I am thinking about putting the same tube in the mini
how long do the springs last? i ask because i will be moving over seas and want to make sure im as stocked as possible
It can last for years but it would be a good idea to have a spare
The springs themselves as Rob said will last for years... The thing that kills them are bad adapters and/or bad attys that create a short resulting in a high current surge which collapses the spring. It saves your mod from catastrophic damage, but it will render the mod useless or significantly less efficent. Its a good idea if your going to be in a country that could take a while to get a replacement, should yours fail, to have a few extras... At a few bucks a pop...its cheap insurance so that you wont be caught with a unusable mod...
PM Rob. I don't think that is the only option for small accessories
The Canadian postal entities want to get even with all those Americans that have been buying their prescription meds on the cheap
ETA: the springs are held in the grand by a small screw. You can use a spring from one of those cheap plastic battery holders like Radio Shack sells (I know from experience they collapse just like the REO springs) if you can figure a way to tap and thread them.
