Knock on wood my Opus D is just amazing. I've dropped it several times, not even a scratch, looks brand new. Love this thing. I'm using a Kir Fanis Trap Tank with a top fill hole and needle bottle (switch betwen Halo Tribeca and COV4). The trap tank is great as it's short and stubby, with a short contoured stainless brushed drip tip, keeps it very low profile and pocketable. The AGR Tank is good too (love the top fill hole), but it's a little longer than the trap tank (lot cheaper though). I've noticed the battery life has gotten better now after a month of owning it, I can go all day on a charge, but I will plug it in for a few minutes during the day just to make sure. Perfect balance of battery life to size/weight ratio in my opinion. They really knocked it out of the park.
The finish is great, only "chalkboard-ish) if you run your nail along it, but super durable and takes a beating. The button is perfect, you can fire it from off angle, not too big, not too small, and in a perfect spot for a thumb fire or reverse grip index finger fire. Thumb fire works best when it's charging. Nice throw, no click (which I like). The wheel is perfect too, again no click and you don't really have to turn it per se, just gently push in the direct and it changes watts, love that.
The other thing I like about it is I can run anything on it. Cisco 306's at 1.5 ohms (that drop to 1.1 pretty quick with my juice), it keeps firing when all my other mods "low load", so it's a great dripper mod too, just keep an eye on the leaks. That's a great setup as well, 306 atty with a deep contour 306 tip, super clean and almost zero extra weight. Frickin awesome!
My only wishlist item would be a new Opus D with a side mount (like the new Itaste VTR, but that thing is a monster, and way too shiny and blingy for my taste, plus it weighs over 13 oz!). They could make the Opus D a touch wider (for the side mount, tank whatever -- same length, same height, but no top mount 510, build it into the side. It would square it off, make it even more "pocketable". Probably about the same size as a pack of cigs.
Anyway, if you have any hesitation about this mod, just buy it. Everything else I own is gathering dust. Cheers Here's some mod porn for ya
I normally don't do white PV's. But I think a white Opus with the brass accents and the black button would look sexy as all get out.
