I thoroughly cleaned the BB switch again. I also put a little strip of insulating tape on the underside of the aluminium button just in case that was somehow causing a short.

And my MK mods clear panels arrived from FT today.
So far, so good. No signs of auto-firing but I'm not leaving it unattended.

Hope its sorted mate.
How did you clean the switch? I just spayed it with contact cleaner, and blew it with compressed air. Don't know if it did anything as its sealed.

I just cleaned it with isopropyl alcohol on a cotton bud. Because it's sealed I didn't bother breaking out the de-oxit. I just thought cleaning the general area was a good idea and to be honest, there was no gunk or dirt to be seen.
Anyway, the switch is clicking nicely now and feels right - not that hair trigger feel it had leading up to the auto-firing drama.

Well SMT did want me to keep re-naming the days of the week.
Yes!

What's turkey bacon anyway?
Other than fish I don't eat meat. Found some turkey bacon online. It looks really gross to me.

However, it looks like their Aegis transforming into Voopoo's pod mods. Not a particular friend of them since I found out they have no buck and boosters (except for one at the moment). My Argus Pro also needs some special coil wiring to hit the right spot with no boosters.

I wonder what the cause of that was :cool:
Me too. After cleaning, when I put the little panel back that covers the board and holds the button in place I noticed that if I tightened the top left screw down fully, I got a kind of "half click" feel when I hit the fire button - like it was almost engaging without me putting pressure on it.
One quarter turn looser and the button gave that nice healthy click sound again. Haven't had a problem since.
Maybe somehow my button panel got bent a fraction. Dunno.
All ok for now though.

I had the same issue with one of my board covers on my BB when I had it, with the screws tight there was very little movement in the button. Screws not being tight really bothers my OCD so I put a small plastic spacer under the cover in the top corners (cut from a plastic container lid), this allowed me to fully tighten the screws again for proper button movement.

Initial thoughts on the Arbiter 2.

The first version Arbiter is the rta that made me put all my other tanks away. I have 8 of the version 1. Needless to say, I love this tank.

Arbiter 2 has an edge in the flavor department. The new airflow design is more smoother than the first version too. Another plus, the Arbiter 2 is not the massive beast that the first version is. The original is so big it makes all my mods very top heavy, thus being easy to knock over.

Arbiter 2 for the win.

Good idea. Gonna try that.
