useless, i recently got a copper drip shield from the folks that are famous for making drip shields. think about the tallest 'state building' in new york city...or the [ ] strike's back a la star wars...
I've got one of those. the copper color doesn't really look good against the brass at all IMHO.
Thanks guys for respecting the Sub forum here, I appreciate that A LOT....I got a gold one from Keith (Empire mods) at VapeStock and it looks pretty sweet...Got a drip tip to match...Thanks again,

Is there a way to powder coat a Darwin "thru the right channels" to keep the warranty? Saw one on the classies and I'm a little interested (if the warranty is still active and if I can change the color).
Sorry but nope. If they are coated, it was done 3rd party and they have been opened = voided warranty.
thanks for the feedback, drew! and much appreciation for allowing use to share info--definitely not my intention to disrespect our beloved nHaler subforum!
I post in so many sections of ECF and a couple of other forums that I sometimes forget where I am, but I do try not to step on any toes when I can avoid it ;-) BTW, I ordered one of those twisted drip shields on my Nhaler order yesterday. Not that I need more drip shields, but I'm hoping they look as cool in person as in the pics. Actually dripping without one for a change right now and I keep making a mess
thanks for the info about DT's guys. I had a drip shield from the famous makers and it was my main for quite awhile. I just got a black one and it would be cool to keep the black brass theme on a Darwin.
That's what I was thinking. Someone mentioned (not the seller) that it was powder coated by 3rd party and assembled by evolv. I sensed it wasn't true when I saw the white spots in the paint that looked like bubbles over a white primer. I used to work in sheet metal so I'm used to seeing parts painted/anodized/powder coated. It didn't look right though so I didn't buy it.
Good call SkRaTcH. I am certain your patience will be rewarded soon. It has to be. You and a few others have been waiting for sometime now and I am sure Drew knows you and a few others here deserve a Darwin when this drought finally breaks.
BTW from now on we will shorten your name, since L2S is taken we will fly with L2Sk

Oh the woes of the overzealous dripper!!! I am right there with you man. If KD was not reading this thread we could discuss the dreaded sauce hand but with that I know exactly were our little kitty would go
Edited on grounds that I don't want to bring things up and want to respect this thread. Bring on the Darwin's already!

two different people. it is a possibility that Jamie MIGHT have one of the very few that Evolv had done but I do not know for certain.
I believe Dimitri, CJ and Jamie mentioned theirs were painted as a gift from Brandon at evolv. That's what kind of made me want one more, thought we'd be able to order some custom colors... But the color of the Darwin is great already. My car, sunglasses, road bike, other PV are black.
I know the guy that powder coated it. He goes by CHOPPERGUYS on ECF. He isnt taking work right now due to personal issues. The white you saw was the reflection of the glitter in the paint. Trust me, i have one powder coated in blue. I saw the blank cases he had as well as some tubes for the xhalers he was polishing for Drew over at Nhaler. It was legit. Way too pricey though. Chopper was doing it for next to nothing. $25 plus the price for paint from powder buy the pound. Here is a pic of mine.
Oh, maybe it was weird lighting... Or maybe the person had it customized elsewhere, I don't know, it's sold anyway.
Oh well, I'd still rather buy 2 from NHaler than one with a paint job I didn't choose. LoL! As I've mentioned, I'm unemployed which is why the longer the warranty the better.
But your Darwin is beautiful! That type of paint job I'm familiar with. Compare your picture to the one in the classies. Those look like bubbles that are easier to see with the better lighting. But I'd rather have it black until started getting scratches or whatever. And by that time, the warranty would probably be done, so I'd just get it painted/anodized somewhere if it really bothers me that much.
I'm also a firm believer in supporting the company. Hopefully, if by supporting them as much as we can, we wouldn't have such a long Darwin drought.
My understanding L2Sk... sorry L2S, it would still confuse me.
My understanding Skratch, is that the delay is due to sourcing components. I am quite sure that Brandon, Drew, and all of the other people involved are equally frustrated as those of us hoping to purchase one.
In fact, I suspect they are even more frustrated as they have to listen to people complain (not you) about not being able to buy one while attempting to get everything necessary and a steady supply of components to build them! They have to deal with both sides of the problem!

I am with ya on the whole being skeptical thing and it not being in the color you want. When spending money like that it is better safe than sorry. It's a shame that people cant be taken on their word anymore. Heres to hoping this Darwin drought ends soon.
