Thanks for replying. I've had nothing but great luck with my GG. No problems at all. Only when I put in the kick does it not fire. Hmmmm... I don't have another mod yet. I've been looking and am very interested in picking up a Strata when available.

The kick likes a strong connection. I had some consistency/connectivity issues in my P+18 (when I had it). I think P+ may be the nicest tube I have seen yet but I just wrestle with bottom buttons. I also use carto tanks and the P+ would not stand up very stable (if laid down, could easily roll and almost fell off my desk more than once). When put kick in my sliver Bullet - with IMR 18490 - it worked well and then occasionally would not fire. When I added the extension sleeve with 18650, the erratic fire became more prevalent. I stretched the SB hotspring a little bit - to make the overall fit more snug (vertically only) - and that ended the issue. Now it fires with no probs.
While I am
NOT suggestion you consider stretching your spring - it can work. I would think with the GG (don't have one) threading the telescope down to a more snug fit against the kick and batt might accomplish the same thing. Alternatively, adding in a vapesafe/fuse (looks like a little PCB disk) under the batt - over the spring - could also be a way to safely tighten up the internal batt/kick fit.
Sometimes a bit (think tiny almost invisible smear) of ox-guard on all three contact points of the kick can be of help in the conductivity as well. The thing with the kick is that it is the first/only drop-in module made and because it is going into various devices, that simple fact (various devices) creates variables for which Evolv has no control. Kicks DO work consistently but some devices may take a little bit of playing around to get the connection consistent. I now use mine every day and got more of them for some new devices I am waiting on. But, then again, I do have Darwins and an Opus to tide me over!
