Total confusion regarding Sigelei 13A

[gbojar]

I had a sigelei 13A a while back but ended up selling it. Well I got another one today and the bottom post and firing mechanism are completely different making me wonder if it is a B. The store I got it from swears it is a 13A. The original design, just like the # 8 was great. chrome over brass post with internal spring coming out from the top and the end of the button being metal. This is a copper spring wrapped around black what I hope would be delrin, and a plastic cap on this inside of the button. What?? Anyway, here it is. Can someone please clarify for me? Thanks so so much!

that's the 13 b for sure my buddy has the same one, we are trying to figure out how to mod it and improve on the voltage drop.

That must be a 13B. I have a 13A, and mine doesn't look like that. There is no delrin piece on mine. I'm assuming the delrin piece is intended to force you into using the spring, for the bottom contact, instead of removing it, like some people do.

I thought the only difference between the 8,13, and 19's A's and B's was the Nzonic cap. The different internal workings were like updated releases?

Oh no, 13a and b have always been different. I spoke with the vendor and supposedly it is reversible which explains the spring. Says you can unscrew contacts from either head and switch them. I have the 23 which is reversible and the design makes sense, this is silly. Even has a plastic cap over the buttons inside contact. I had a 13a and loved it, shoulda never sold it. Grrr
