Lmao! I had to go and dig around for this pic as i'm getting it etched on another mod...shhh...so i decided to use it as an avatar for a while.
Hmm, yeah.... There is zero spare space inside these currently, but as the electronics and battery get smaller? There could be more space available in the future. Here is a great idea for a "unified system". While vendor lock-in can be a bad thing for us consumers, it is of course a great thing for the vendor. Consider this....
A barcode scanner, built-in to Darwin 3.0 My first thought was RFID, but the solid block o' aluminum construction wouldn't let radio work very well without an external antenna. You would also have to have special RFID packages for your goodies for it to read. Barcodes or QR codes will continue to be around for a long time.
You scan your re-order items, Darwin stores it. When you are ready to actually place the order, you just plug it in. The USB cable awakes an app on your PC (or Mac, or phone, or whatever), dumps the data to your online PCmac/phone/whatever and fires an order off to Drew. This basically just says "GIMME MORE STUFF". All the while, conveniently charging your Darwin.
I am a security guy, and the though of actually securing something like this is another whole can of worms, but if you keep it limited to to hard-wired to your PC/Mac/phone/whatever, then you are up to securing your device as far as name/CC number/etc no worse than you normally are.
Hmm, I have worked with tiny embedded Linux kernels before (but not exactly anything like this). I am available for consultation and development.
A con-sult means you have conned someone into believing that you know more about $RANDOM_TOPIC than they do. An in-sult is something like, "I like your plaid pants. IN 1974".
I saw a Provari for the 1st time today and was very impressed with among other things the 510 adapter. It has the 4 slots for air venting making it a true Joyce 510 battery connection. Why doesn't the Darwin have this? I sent my Darwin in for repair (battery went bad) and they sent me one with all the latest updates which is great but the adapter only has 2 air/vent slots cut into it. I am very impressed with the Darwin's electronics but the atty connector and watt adjuster wheel need some work. If juice leaked like what could happen when using a tank it could get into the Darwin watt adjuster wheel. To get good air flow I have to use a 510-510 extender. IF brass is too soft why not use stainless steel?
Same here. 3pcs (1 for me 2 for friends). Can't wait!My first mod...
Sweet! You won't be disappointed
It was my first mod as well and is still the only thing that I use.Sweet! You won't be disappointed
Nice. Should get it by tuesday or wednesday. Been talking about it for last 3 weeks to my friends as I've been waiting that those'd be in stock again in mojurepublic uk... so because of me my friends got excited too.
Is the draw and operation of the unit any different with 2 cut outs instead of 4? I'm not sure if this effects performance or not. As to why they chose that particular one there could be a long list of reasons, or it might just boil down to quality/price ratio when they ordered a batch of them. The next batch might use a different adapter?
On the brass arm. I could be wrong, but I'm thinking that the foundation for it might be a stock part they found somewhere that was used in some other industrial application. I've seen lots of similar brass fittings around the world. To get it in stainless they would probably have to build it themselves, or pay someone else a small fortune to machine each one...and that is a pretty complex part in terms of machining something.
On the wheel....that thing is one of, if not the highest rated wheel of its kind in the world. Don't let the looks fool you! That switch has been tried and tested since the mid 1940s. Military and NASA approved. Dials like that just don't fail very often...even after getting wet and given an opportunity to dry out...they keep on working. In fact, the more they get used, the better/longer they work.
On liquid getting into a Darwin. They did run it through some pretty tough tests...including dumping gallons of liquid over and into the thing. Sure...they could spend a small fortune eliminating the one in a million probabilities, and in time with future versions they probably will. In the meantime...use your tank and feel confident that the thing is going to work for years to come...even if you have an accident or two and drop your Darwin into a bucket of e-liquid and leave it there all day.
(Not to OP, but just a general observation)
What amazes me with the PV world is this:
So many people walk around with very complex e-gadgets made entirely of plastic. Phones, palm-tops. I-pods, and the list goes on. They fling them around...bash them against things, sit on them...and they keep on working for years (with their wired in batteries). They are electronic, and use Li-Poly batteries. These same people 'claim' that they will not touch a PV unless it weighs a ton, is 'all mechanical', and can survive orbital reentry and submersion to the bottom of the Indian Ocean without a parachute.
After spending a month bashing the very small imperfections of a dozen high end PVs on the market to intentionally cut down their sales, and forcing them through media bully tactics to spend a small fortune making the 'perfect PV' in the 'next version' that will cost two arms instead of just one, these same 'critics' end up using and endorsing a cheap made to order box mod with over a dozen parts that have to be replaced FREQUENTLY with stock parts from hobby lobby or radio-shack. I could point to a few of those type 'critics' here on ECF, but I'll refrain for now

I might do that to use it with liquinator. Thanks for the tip.
What comes to hurricane/shipping... the shipment is already on it's way from UK to Finland.
No hurricanes here... at least not in sight. - Status
