So We Released a New 510 Connector

[stealthvape]

The lovely people at Evolv gave us permission to base our 510 design on their reference 510 connector. At first glance it could be the same connector but there are the following differences.

• They accept a slightly different range of 510 lengths up to 5.2mm.
• Gone are the hex shaped parts to make production cheaper.
• Our insulator and washer are made from PTFE
• 510 body is made from 303 stainless steel
• Toothed locking solder lug made from brass
• M12x1, 14mm wrench, 3mm thick brass nut
• Japanese inverted internal retaining ring (It looks like we've used an external retaining ring but we haven't, honest) This is to get more clearance from the centre pin.
• Simplified top face for a smooth clean appearance.
• Conical spring made from music wire to provide 10N+ at full compression. Again a cheaper option.

We started this project last November so it's great to finally release them. We've gone through multiple sample runs and spring revisions. It's surprising how complex springs are seeing as they look like the most straight forward part at first glance.
