Well, that's true. I suppose if it's pressing hard on the post it should be at least as solid as the positive pin.
Anybody got a recommended build for restricted DL in the Bantam box? I'm using the 10A (Mooch says maybe 9A) CDR Keeppower 18350s which restricts the build for DL. I've tried a few Insider and Vapeshell builds that were ok but I'm looking for new inspiration.
Thanks in advance!

A 28 gauge coil of Kanthal should work equally well.

I've experimented with 27 and 28 gauge kanthal, 2.5 and 3mm, in my Vapeshell. The best flavor and vapor so far is a 1 ohm, 3mm, 4/5 wrap of 28 gauge kanthal, with koh gen do organic cotton wicking at 25W.
threw my sxk xeta away after losing one of the clamps. then later found the clamp. doh.
will need to get another. sxk or yftk this time?

BANTAM BOX REPLACEMENT INTERNALS - GXLD & TRVPPED
from Canada on September 1. Arrived today (that's right 3 months on the high seas) and I only paid CAD $30 postage for the privilege. Bargain...
Anyway it looks pretty good and I've got a 26 gauge 6 wrap spaced 3mm id KA1 coil in the Vapeshell - about 1 Ohm - nice at 22W.

So there is a titanium alloy xeta incoming on ftech, any idea if that is to solve the issue with posts breaking?
The positive post can break at the thinnest point along the edge of the screw holes. It's avoidable if you're aware of it and just don't tighten beyond what is necessary to get the coil tight and resistance stable. It's a thing. Haku even made a beefed up positive post to address it in the authentic.
Neither of mine (YFTK or SXK) have been a problem for me, but a guy I know, who admits to being something of an over-tighterner anyway, broke two.
Has anybody else noticed inaccurate and fluctuating resistance readings on the Bantam? My current build reads 0.98 Ohms on a dna 60 BB but is anywhere between 1.1 and 1.3 Ohms on the Bantam. Every time I press the fire button it gives a slightly different reading. It reminds me of the board in the 70W SXK BB but even more flighty. Sometimes it's giving a "check atomizer" fault too. I've cleaned the contacts with Deoxit but that hasn't made a noticeable difference.
Pondering getting rid of my authentic Billet Box and all of its accessories, doesn't see much use these days.
I'll post a list in the classies when the time comes.

not something i could probably afford to take off your hands but give me a shout before you list just in case
Hmmm. My Billet Boxes acted like that sometimes until I beveled the top of my boros.
I don't know.
