Another one that I used to own, came up on classies, so now one is back in the house.
Much copied, none of them came close. The Slug was...ahem...different to what had gone before. In many ways it summed up how the Philippines have always had a slightly different and original take on mech mods.
Launched in 2014, there were very limited numbers of the brass and hardwood device (the wood being made from stock so tough it is used for martial arts weapons). Eventually, numbers ran to the 600s but this is still in short supply considering the world waited for one.
Steel Punk followed it up with a slightly revised model in copper.
Running a single 18650, the Slug benefits from an incredibly low voltage drop. Unscrew the fire pin locking nut, pull the top of the firing mechanism and the length of brass cantilevers into contact with the copper cup holding the cell.
The 510 was a simple affair; a copper slug sitting in a tight insulator, allowing the atty to auto adjust - then the battery cap spring compresses into the copper cup, pushing the cell up to make contact with the 510 pin.
Next to the all-copper box mod I'll never see again due to only 100 being made, the Slug ranks as one of my favourite box-style mods.
This one arrive damaged, filthy, non-functioning and missing a spring. I've been in a foul mood because of that all week. People who don't mention stuff like that on ads ought to be banned from any community outlet - but this is the world we now live in since "the vape community" collapsed :/
Still, I put off doing my accounts, went to the garage, and while not perfect - it's working and a bit shiny.
