I was considering buying one now that they are going out of business & 50% off. I didn’t know about the voltage drop. Uhm.... I don’t know that I can solder though. Thanks for the detailed info!

It doesn’t really show in the pics with my eyes at least lol!
Very nice that you can make a new body for it.
It's a worthy purchase, feel SOLID in the hand, a lot better than most other aluminum / plastic squonker around
You can do 1 of three things:
1.- Buy a raw aluminum (unpainted one), they call it the Tumbled, there is no paint between the spring base and the body of the mod, so the conductivity is a lot better
2.- don't do anything, perfectly fine if you vape around 0.5~0.6 and above (nice vape on a single coil still)
3.- do the modifications, better pictures below
- unscrew the spring/plate from bottom (screw head exposed below the mod)
- remove paint in area below the plate (i used a dremel and a small sanding tool)
- optional applu a few solder spots between plate and exposed body (so mod can handle even lower builds)
Those screws are gold plated berillium-copper and designed to collapse on high amp loads, so i'm not running a .1ohm on it. But at .3 all is fine and dandy. havent put down since getting it.
Dammmnnnnn
Thanks again for all the info, I’ll go have a look at their tumbled
Got a Mass Mods/Unicorn Inc. Axial in the mail today. I'm super excited about this RDA. Wow it's very well made and looks great. Got it from my favorite site by far, Cloudist.Store, I just wish I had more cash at the moment because the gear they carry is drool worthy and I "need" more stuff lol

That’s cool looking, a little like the Eiffel Tower. I know it’s an oil rig or whatever, but the design is similar imho.

That's gorgeous. Is that a custom door?
thank you, i like it. i don't think so, i got it in the package deal.
Those are aftermarket doors, nice looking at that.
The original doors are the set that's in the left of the second picture you posted.

I don't think it's awkward. Because a legend never dies
geez, dont be your pussy your whole life is not too uplifting when someone rather ends his life than dealing with problems.
The is a whole sorry in the rig fb group about that message, what happens and how cuckoo it seems to the brand followers to have added that
I wanna bet that the critics on fb don't have the balls it takes to end their life. You can't be a whiner on fb your whole life... or apparently there are some folks who can.
FYI if anyone wants anything from Breazy.com I just found out they don’t charge tax to NJ anymore yay!!! 
I got 2 GV Solo mods for $28.79 each free shipping @$50.
They gave me a code to share 20% off so if anyone wants anything here’s a code:

dude, seriously, guy killed himself and left a wife and two small daughters is very hard financial hardship. c'mon
who is this you speeek of ?
That was very unfortunate yes of course. But I still fail to see how that makes this particular engraving 'awkward' or anything like that, really

They used to charge tax for NJ too & I just found out today they don’t anymore..
OK,
They have been very mute about it, but after Kennedy vapors, my favorite brand, and the one i had most mods from, was vapemp (Vape American Products), had close to 20 of their rig mods at some point + lots of RDAs and accesories.
Take ALL OF THIS as speculation, it's what i gather from reading bits from here and there
Their main product was always the Rig Mod series, v1, v2, v3, rig pig, rig pig v2, descendant and outlaw.
The founder, James, when he started, had to sell his house and move to a trailer with his wife and pregnant wife to be able to have money and put together their first mod, The OG Rig Mod V1 / Roughneck RDA. Which became highly celebrated and one of the OG American made mech mods worth calling 'competition mods'
He recouped his invested money, then some, and allowed him to move his lifestyle back to where he was (or better) before starting.
P.D.: seems the other american brand that became prominent after his and that posed a thread to his sales, was Kennedy Vapors, where supposedly he helped Steve Kennedy with the first RDA, then hated the bejesus out of him after.
Then came the Rig v2, which i believe in 2014 or 2015 had showed as the mod most used by those that won 'cloud comps' and such (never was part or one of these, just telling what i know)
In 2016 or 2017, a rig v2 exploded in someone's face in florida. It seems someone was using a RDA without a protruding-enough positive pin RDA on it (hybrid mod that had a hybrid disc on top, unlike the v1)

my understanding Vapeamp was found guilty (at least of not stating sufficiently and clearly enough that such danger was present) ad was liable for a lot of money.
James was said to have had mental problems to begin with. This, compounded with the fact he was about to lose everything he had (or a significant portion of it), led to his passing away (known know to be a suicide) last year
He left a wife and daughters in a lot of financial burden, vapeamp still liable, and a lot of pressure on the people still at the company to move forward.
They have been working hard during the past year to reoganize the company, leading to the release of the Legacy mod. Not his design but the people still at the company.
AFAIK, only five 'American Made' companies ever machined the mods themselves (versus sending the design to an american shop and then selling it back and calling it american mad) that were RELEVANT, Super-T manufacturing, Vapeamp, Kennedy Vapor, Rogue mods and Purge mods.
I MAY BE VERY WRONG ABOUT THAT LAST PARAGRAPH, BUT TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE EVERYONE ELSE 'AMERICAN MADE' HAD AT LEAST PARTS MADE ELSEWHERE IN THE USA.
back to the legacy, there are two versions of that mod, the special edition 'James' mod, with that engraving of his face and message "You cant be a pussy your whole life" in the body, NOT TO MY PERSONAL TASTE at all. And the one i purposely bought without that (again, to me) distasteful thing (1000% personal thing i reckon)
The mod IS great, best i have had from FML The Rig Mod. If i had to sell al the vapeamp / rigmods i have i would keep the legacy, one outlaw and the pig v2
Vapeamp.com is closed, the people left behind putting together FML The Rig Mod (www.therigmod.com), FML standing for Fuck My Life according to rumors, after the hard past year everyone has had there to come back to its former glory, opened it and has been / still is under re-structuring with the store up and down at times to this day.
It's the LITTLE AND VERY-LITTLE PUT TOGETHER i know about the brand and what happened, there is little info and a lot of rumors here and there, may be 1000% wrong so dont come blaming me for half/full untruths.
