The iHybrid APV - A fully Customizable Genesis

So yeah, I think they are extremely durable but you can ask just about anyone who owns them

But no matter how the quality is, these tips are still made of glass so breakage is possible. I have a little girl who is about to turn 1 and walks, she really likes grabbing me and my wife's PV's... She has dropped, thrown, and knocked them over each week for months but hasn't broken one yet. (I should also note the Mrs only uses glass tips as well, though she has only 3 while I have a small collection)

OH! Almost forgot, if you want to try a glass tip out, without the risk of a 25 dollar investment, just get some Buddy Tips They are free and you can choose your length

Thanks for the link, I love those tips!!! What is the problem with Brass?

It corrodes when it comes in contact with juices and releases nastyness

(sorely put can someone expand on this, my brain is fried at the end of the work day )

Thanks to both of you! We'll see what I end up getting, going to look at some others too...so many good options now! Thanks for the vendor info!

My tank has not shipped either an I ordered the same day...while they are not the best I do continue to order from them for a lot of obvious reasons, customer service just happens to not be one of them lol

Yeah sadly I see this very scenario playing out in my future.

Apparently brass can react with eliquids that are acidic. Not sure of the science behind that, but that is just what I have seen a few people post.

It depends on the tip and how it falls, but in the last year I have only broken 1 tip. I have however dropped my PV's directly on the tip at least 50 times much to my chagrin. Just this week I dropped my iHy shock and it fell directly on a 1" tall Pillar tip from the last official sale, RIGHT onto the bathroom floor while standing (I am 6' tall). It literally bounced back up a few inches with not even a hairline crack

Also if they break, just gather the pieces and send them in to TT and they will repair and mail it back free of charge.

That sounds pretty good. I'm just worried my three year old daughter would take them for herself, she loves pretty things. Found most of Mom's jewelry the other day in her Dora the explorer backpack.
Used to go to Bert's thread all the time, best eye candy on the ECF. Those guy's are super talented, and true artist's. I may have to p/u a couple and put them in a high place when not in use, thanks for the info.

Oo this tip would be awesome on the HR! - Its from that site you just posted Thanks for the link!

Looks like its sold out tho, and kinda wary of the brass core thing myself

That's weird, cuz they have one called Pluid on Corevape.

 

[Nurzrachit]

I think in the case of these tips, it is ok, as it is just a core encased with resin or Tru-stone. The brass is just a "skeleton" to form the material around, I believe. I could be wrong, but that's my interpretation of the info on his site.

Not all the tips on corevape are SouthernPens tips; I jist noticed a few of his were on there

I don't think you could keep me from posting at least 1 pic of it... I'm stoked to try the new switch for sure.

That would make sense and make them safe Unless the core is bared on the inside then it still would apply. Guess the only way to find out is to ask

That sounds more likely, I would'nt think he would make a tip that nice that could,nt stand up to acidic juices. Heck half the juices out now have a slightly acidic property. I'm sure it is protected in some way, unless he wants to go strait out of biz.
