Square RDA?

[Kemosabe]

i wonder if there are any square shaped RDAs for box mods. i feel like that would be a pretty slick looking item. attys seem to be all tailored to tube mods, with some looking incredibly goofy on slim boxes. would be nice to see a nice squared off rda for the new high wattage boxes.

The problem with square parts is that when you screw them together so they're tight, they don't line up. Cylinders always match.

in theory it would be great but then one issue arises... not all mod 510 threads start at the exact orientation so you could en up with a misaligned cube that would look worse than a cylinder

beat me to it

It is possible to make a square RDA that does line up properly, the easiest way that I can envisage is to have the base part standard (circular/cylindrical) and then have a 'push fit' top part with a square shape to it (cylindrical dome milled inside the square block).

Don't ask me how to make sure that airholes line up with this design though...

i hadnt thought about the logistics. youre right- getting it to align perfectly might be tough. but i think atty makers could tackle that issue. ive seen some pretty great innovations in the vaping world. something like what double ewe posted combined with adjustable 510 pins (atty and mod) ought to get the job done, or at least get the ball rolling.

I think you'd want to ditch the 510 connector entirely, and move over to some sort of plug/clamping system instead. Like, what you use to attach a coax cable to your TV set. That way, you get the alignment right and tighten the connector as two separate steps.

In fact, I bet it's pretty easy to replace a 510 connector with a coax cable connector in most box mods.

I would love to see a bottom feeder hybrid mod with a square rda

You could have a round base, and a cube-shaped top (with a round hole cut into the bottom). This way you could align the head with the rest of the mod

Yep, you said it first, I just didn't understand it. To tell the truth, I didn't understand my own post after posting it.

Not a difficult concept, though.

Perhaps the OP should check out the squape? It's only one letter off from square...... (sorry, couldn't resist!)

Using this logic
I guess a big block should also work
