I just did and it should be moving along now. But this is dumb:

1) they say they tried to reach out to me when I placed the order, because there was a "partial match" with my CC billing address (not true on either account)
2) They say they never "captured" the charge, but can do so now (not true, I watch my account like a hawk--it was captured)
3) They will ship it today ('bout time)

:lol:
Sounds like a bunch of "oops, we forgot to send it".

That makes me wonder even more what the difference is between the two. I know it's only .20, but why 2, and the pics look the same. Strange.

Agreed. No idea but I am buying another of the same. Works really well and damned cute too!

The Hadaly finally arrived. Gave it a quick soak in some Dawn, dried it off, and put a quick 28g SS parallel coil in, .38 ohms.
I must say, it's probably the easiest atty I've ever built on, because of the 'hold down' tabs. Similar to an M Atty I think, although I don't have one of those. Mounting the coil didn't even take 2 minutes. Slide the wires under the tabs, snug them down, done.
I've only taken maybe 6 drags on it, so far, so I can't comment much. But first impressions, it's pretty sweet! I have the air about 1/2 way open, because I like a slightly restricted lung hit. Squonks and drains well.
I'd say it's definitely worth the money.

That's good news ... glad you got it straightened out.
Now, it's just wait

Just took my Origin little out of the mail box. Haven't had time to do a build yet, maybe later, but the quality of this looks to be great. Nicely finished, threads are good, threads go together smoothly, I'm very pleased with it. Not sure yet if I can put a coil in it and have it in front of the air hole I want to use. I'll have to try it see how it will go. I may need to see a vid or two to see how it's being done.
There are two bf pins, on is SS, and one is brass.

Ran into a little problem with the Origin. The grub screws keep snipping the wire ends when tightening them down. So it's in the drawer till I can get some decent grub screws. I am trying my usual 30g wire, and have 29 g, a little heaver, might give that a try tomorrow, but I think I need some different grub screws.

I don't know what kind of grubs come with it. But if they are cupped ends, they will cut thin wire. I get my grub screws from McMaster Carr, and always get non marring (flat) ends.

I'd just got my Origin Little 16 clone out to set up when I stopped for dinner & saw your post.

After 2 frustrating attempts to install a Z-coil, I gave up & put one in perpendicular to the air hole. That was easy, & I may learn to like this little atty.

How did your installation go oplholik?

I know someone had asked about grubs for the O-16 a few days ago and finally took a pic of the ones I bought from McMaster a while back. I did find that the problem with mine were the hex key that was provided was so soft it stripped after the second use. This is why I got the hex driver with the screws.

Take your screws while they are on the hex key and slide the bottom of the screw across a piece of sandpaper on a flat surface to flatten it off. That will take care of your problem.
