This is more of a concern than a problem, but I think it should go there. I placed an order for a kit, primarily cause I needed more ego batts and wanted another charger, but it came with two of these "CE5" clearomizers. Now, I have recently gotten disenchanted with clearos and have gone to cartos, but I don't mind having a few on hand as backups, and my wife likes them, but with this particular unit, I have never seen one quite like this. it has a ceramic cup around the coil, and the (-) contact is simply connected by a wire from the bottom to the atty head. Now, My questions are 2.
1) Does anyone see any issues with safety on this being an exposed piece of insulated copper wire floating around in the juice?
2) After looking at this and how it is put together if it is safe and ends up working well, it seems like this could be a VERY easy clearo to rebuild should I ever decide to. Any thoughts?

If copper touches the juice, you may perceive a metallic flavor (I tend to experiment a lot and discovered copper and juice do not play well together). If the copper is well insulated, should be no issues. Also, might not be copper wire. Stainless or sliver do not seem to impart any flavor change (although stainless does not conduct as well as copper or silver). No safety issues are apparent. Give it a go and see how well it works.
