hey there fellow vaperz. i received my Copper Vanilla Mod today and id have to say this thing is sick as .....
The reason im posting is this, 1: i am having constant battery rattle with an efest 18650. not up n down rattle i have adjusted the pin but side to side rattle. ive tried tightening it even more and it does stop the rattle.. momentarily but it will push the pin back up and begin rattling again. not sure if there is a fix for this that is safe? i had thought about putting a single piece of duct tape around it to make it more snug but again not sure that is very safe.
2: i am using an atomic rda clone and am running a parallel coil at .5 ohm (previously a dual parallel build at .25) and this sucker is getting HOT with a 4-5 second drag my drip tip is getting hot enough to where i have to pull away because it starts to singe my lips. the entire mod itself gets hot. im wondering if this is due to the fact that there are no vent holes on the mod itself or what. i have also rebuilt my coils 2 times to make sure that im not overlapping an coils or having a coil touching the post or the top cap of the RDA that would cause such heat. ive never been able to see any sort of contact between either. and even having the single parallel is getting quite hot.

anyways thanks for your time.

Far as I know that extra room is there for venting purposes, the vent is in the switch, I saw a review video a while back about it, I have two Authentic s in brass and copper, and I have never really noticed a rattle once the pin has been adjusted, my lock ring on my brass mod rattles a bit cause it is very free spinning, don't know that I would wrap the battery though,
