The iHybrid APV - A fully Customizable Genesis

[Fisty]

Hmm... put the base metal battery tube back on and it's working fine now. How strange. The green one was working fine for a few days. I guess I'll go get a little wire brush and try to clean those threads on the inside of the green tube. I'm rather perplexed though, no ox id should have made the contact even better.

And the red 350 tube works fine too... guess I'll have a Christmas in September PV til I can get the threads cleaned off on the green one. LOL

on a side note, tube prices have dropped and so did the iHy, thats the only price drop for awhile, I ordered bulk t304 bar and I'm passing the discount on

Good stuff! cant wait for my black tube set!

Fisty, I hope you get it figured out.

Try polishing the threads on the Anodized tube? Maybe Faceless missed a spot when cleaning the threads.

The anodizing would kill current.

Hi everyone. I just bought and received my iHybrid off the cassys and I really like it. Great job on these Faceless. This is my first hybrid genny APV and I was wondering what is the benefit of magnets for the switch? Also was there a different type of tube material used with the first run of these? Was the first run of these made with the fused quarts tank? After I bought mine I tried to clean it and cracked the tank trying to put it back on the device. Good thing it was sent with spar tank so I could use it. I'm glad to see your site is up and running Faceless. Its so tempting to get another especially since you've done the price drop. Thanks for a great APV.

Yes, the first run wasnt flame polished or annealed so it made them brittle (more easy to crack) Your spring is probably the old spring also. The magnets will never give out. A spring will lose its compression over time. I have upgraded to magnets also and I'm thinking of shipping them that way, its up in the air

Oh ok. I was just adding things to my cart and saw that the magnets were sold out. Are you going to have them back in stock soon?

I have a question for yall. I have the 18650 kick tubes ready. I was thinking of doing a kick sleeve, for 2 reasons.

1. Kick sleeve for the 18350 tube to make the 18490 with a kick fit without a gap.
2. It would be available by itself in colors to make the ihybrid be able to have 3 different colors (ex: red tank sleeve, white kick sleeve, blue battery tube) what do yall think? I could also do away with the 18650 tube and make the extension sleeve to support the 18650 also. It would cut cost and the new units would be: full unit, 18350 tube with a 18650 extension and a 18490 kick extension and sell the 18650 kick tubes seperate. The price on the iHybrid kit would drop to $199. What do yall think? It would be version 2

If I order some tubes and magnets. Can you ship them with my special iHy?

I have them now, but I'm changing it to 5 thinner ones instead of 2 thick and 1 thin, same price though. I will go add them now, give me 5 minutes

yes ten character madness

Well I was hoping my batteries would be here tomorrow, but as it still shows them in PA not even to KC yet I highly doubt they will be.

 

[Faceless]

ok, magnets should be in stock

 

[Murdock Ruml]

I personally like one continuous tube for the battery.

me too, I just liked the idea of 3 color madness lol. I'll just make the 18490 kick sleeve for the 18350 to do away with the gap, that way its optional. You can buy it and have 3 colors or just use an oring to fill the gap and not buy it

 

[Murdock Ruml]

yes ten character madness

Order placed.

 

[NancyR]

I know it will be a bit before I can get the colored tubes Faceless, but hoping you find out on the colored tanks soon as would love one of them.

By tubes, I meant tanks.
