Agree the SL threads are grindy, and battery pressure does make it worse. Pushing on the cap when installing the battery helps. But they aren't smooth, even without the battery.

Good thing is, it's not a fine threading, so I don't think it will cross thread or get damaged. Just seems kind of janky on a YiHi mod. Guessing it will smooth out some with time, I may put a light coating of vaseline on them to see if it helps.

I've got three of them, one stabwood and the black and gray pearl or whatever they call it. The threads on the stabwood are actually much better than the other two.

Also, I've noticed the finish quality isn't the greatest on mine. It's a laquer coated stainless steel, and the finish applied isn't smooth/clean in some places. Almost like it's applied heavier in some places than others. I just expected a little better from a YiHi mod.

Don't get me wrong, I'm really pleased with mine. No regrets.

I may get a polishing bit out for the dremel and try to clean up the threads a bit on one of mine. No griding or brushing, just a polish wheel perhaps to smooth it out a bit. Actually, some steel wool would probably help a great deal.

I put grease on mine and it helped. About the finish, mine is already showing signs of wear around the edges of the pattern but that's okay. I think with the industrial design of the mod, it will actually look better when it gets a little "broken in".

It’s Thanks Giving Holiday in Canada tomorrow. And with that comes sales from local vape shops. So I will most likely be “Giving” my money and being “Thankful” for what I get in return. A new RDA is back on my radar (that didn’t last long)

Albert has a $1000 code hidden on his site somewhere.

I missed his flash strike $200 off coupon last night. You had to spend $300 to apply the $200 coupon, I had a LV Triad 250C and the Asylum Modz Helo 30mm RTA in the cart ready to go...

Snipers got to it first...

Albert Lee the designer of the B2K and owner of ecigarettes.ca... We'll have to revoke your Toronto status.

I was going to reply to my own post after I re-read it, but @Fidola13 is too nice for me to do it.
HOWEVER, my chivalry only goes so far, so I didn't edit it and figured I'd let someone else be the big meanie.

I'll have to use that the next time I'm visiting the nursing home... I think it was current when some of the residents were kids.

Also, why do we need a Columbus Day? Not only was he a massive jerk but I'll have to wait until Tuesday for my shiny.

Thanks a lot!!
I have a liquid sample order that got stuck in the Carolinas, then finally got confirmation that it would be here yesterday.
It didn't show up.
I get notification that it is at my local post office this morning, and I thought "cool, it will be here tomorrow."

Then.............
I see your post about Columbus Day!!

I have dual core wire coming. I guess I will have to wait another day.

Yeah, he could've waited to remind us until later in the day.
I think I had a whole 20 minutes of happiness.

It could be worse I guess.
It could have been an order coming from China I had been waiting weeks for, lol.

If anyone picks up that Titan PWM mod we can ask them if it's running...

But it's only a mini fridge.
Another member showed me this one.
Check out Bertha.....

 

[Eskie]

I had to think on that one, too

Crap! I forgot about that. I have a package that according to tracking is actually sitting in my local post office as of last night. Oh, well, I waited this long for it to meander it's way across the country.

Looks so pocket friendly. Is that a normal sized screen and buttons?

I don't even check on FT orders. I dont need that kind of aggrivation in my life. I'd rather forget about them and have a pleasant surprise a few months down the road.
