Some homemade attys and genesis

[asdaq]

I was thinking holes in the alu for more wicks

Nah, it doesn't need it. I just realized you have air coming up the center tube too, I was somewhat surprised you hadn't sealed that off all the way. I'm doing an ego friendly version already, as nothing I use looks safe enough to carry on a plane, except the ego, and it deserves genisis performance too. Stock looking but satisfying. Trouble is it gets only about 8hrs of performance, so I need to do a 2nd...

Persis, my bad, I saw those pics on another site and I'm glad it is you, not someone else. Spanish language site, but from lots of countries-- that is about all I can read there. Might I be able to request one porfavor?

asdaq,
How do you make an ego-safe genisis? Do you have to put something inbetween the Kanthal and the SS wick? I read somewhere back in this thread or Raidy's that the possible little shorts you can get between the Kanthal and wick, especially when tuning in, could ruin an ego battery.

Jajajaja... OK friend, I will take you on mind, I promise... but... you know... a lot of people are requesting to me the same... and at this moment I cant produce cuantities of nothing, only 4 or 5 of all kinds of my mods.... but, may be in a near future I could produce all my mods to sell them, but is a dream, not with a comercial vision, of course, If I could earn some money to compensate my time, better, but is not my primary intencion, sicerelly, just I love modding. The G atty is on a differnet situation about production and sell, but I've been in contact with Raidy by email, explaining my intentions and my view and everything is OK, he rocks. Also I have created another mods with the same quality, wich I still have not shown yet, maybe I do it soon, But ... all about this at this moment only is a nice dream.

Persis.

Hey 'persis', I didn't want to PM you for that reason, many are asking. If there's ever room for me in a co-op of your solder-less Genisis, that's the one I'm interested in.

Do let me know, and if nothing else, hopefully our US co-op can adopt your design, that's what I've been pushing for at least

 

[Gummy Bear]

Persis,
Never give up your dreams.
(If you do, you'll just be wasting 8 hours a night).

 

[NatureBoy]

Man, I've gotten completely lost in this thread... I have no idea what's going on, but I feel pretty left out regardless, lol.

Lets get that US co-op happenin'!

 

[Gummy Bear]

That's because well,,,, nothing is going on.
The co-op is kinda waiting,, and waiting

Why seal it off? then I would have to drill a hole in the side of the poly tubing. This way I have a central airflow comming around the coil. If the SS is close enough tolerance to the hole there should be minimal leakage to the air chamber in horizantal positions.

Dan, it was late and I thought there was a hole in the lexan.... as for the wick sealing in the hole that really works great, surface tension FTW!

Persis, the 200+ pieces, that is the tank or the genisis? Again it was late. I would be honored to be considered for either

Obeer, it's set to ~2.1 Ω and heavily trained on a mosfet-free device before being put on an ego, I've killed 2 batts before 'setting things up' so I should know better, but oh well.

A regular carto gutted and fit with needles, 3.5mm thick intermediate piece slightly tapered so it press fits into the tank, 3 2mm holes for wick and wires and another carto section for the mouthpiece, holds 1.5ml:

@Asdaq,
IS SPAIN GENISIS CO OP.

Here is the body...



...And the inside conections will be similar (less complex) to my mechanical G that I have showed in this tread in some place a lot of pages behind.

 

[eyebrook]

Hi Persis who is doing the Spain coop, I would like to get on this if I could

 

[u_couple]

Hey Asdaq,
Check it out, finally got my stock in. Was turnin on the lathe today...
Got the bottom part finished. A "Crossover" of a GEN and CE2, CAT5e connectors for the quick connect/disconnect, bottom air feed, coil in airflow, 2 paths for juice flow.
Have been using the prototype (Delrin version) with out fail for a couple days now.

Critiques welcomed!
I made this for use on a ProVari so I am not really concerned with the support cone for an Ego, sure I could have made one but I do not use an Ego, but any other suggestions etc are welcomed

Dan

Haha Dan, sorry but I can`t help but laugh that, the only two pictures that show a cut on your finger, are also the only two that show the possible suspect "craft knife" in the background !!!!
Anyway, lookin good my friend, I may have a go at this one myself ! (the atty that is, not cutting my finger!)

 

[RatInDaHat]

Hey Dan, what are you using for the wire connections? I see the little spade looking things, but what are they?

Ha HA ... yeah that dang xacto actually was not the culprit. It was the 3/4" mill head I glanced off of. Moving to fast and wasnt watching, lucky it was off and static.

Those are the CAT5e punch down connector i.e.:


Well I got her done, and operational! woot!
Here is a pic:


She is working SAweeet!

Dan I am liking the layout of your Alum? piece. What bit are you using to fashion the O-ring grooves? selfmade?

BTW, nasty cut.

Yep, Aluminum and self made groove tool. Took standard bar stock and a grinder and made the o-ring groove tool 1/16" x 3/16"



Have had a ball making this!

I guess I didn't cut mine long enough. I thought about rounding out a parting bit. Nice work !

If you want to have a ball, try threading. haha . tedious. very tedious

Standard as in mild steel? Not even HSS?

I started my mod today and made a video of the finish cut on the lathe specifically to make gummy jealous but the stupid YouTube app on my phone wants a wifi connection and I'm to lazy to switch IP addys. I'll upload it for him tomorrow.

Anyway, got the battery tubes (making one for a friend also) done minus the switch holes. Once I get more done I'll start a new thread with pix.

Hey Persis
Are you adding people from USA to your Spain CO-OP? I would love to buy one of these build it no soldering involved mods of yours.
