Wanted to write a more comprehensive reply/review/impression of these tubes but I'm not bothered now...
...sad to say these tubes will not work with any drop ins that I have and I have over 40 of them...Malkoff, Oveready, EDC+/IS, Mac's Copper, Kerberos, Nailbender, Vinh, WrightLight etc...NOT A SINGLE ONE WORKS!!!
On top of this, my Panasonic 3100mAh won't fit so there's no chance in hell any 3400mAh will fit without a hammer either. These are the latest cells so why not make a tube to fit these? frankly that's no biggie but why won't any of my dropins work? Was it tested before these were release? I've tried all kind of workarounds but it just won't work reliably. Anyone can offer me any assistance? I've bought 6 tubes of all sizes but after the first three don't work, I just threw the rest into my parts drawer and call it a day!
Apologies in advance for my tone here but I was so looking forward to these after such a long wait, and there are also too much free play with the carbon fiber tube for my liking. I'm sorry but I'm just so very dissapointed. Pics to follow...
Edit (01): I don't see how Gorilla Glue is able to fill this gap
oo: and the carbon fiber outer tube will just spin around.
The body have a slightly different machining to the rest and unfortunately the CF tube was cut way too short!
Edit (02): tried copper wrap, adding an outer spring to the drop in (and that will leave a big gap between the body tube and the bezel) etc and still can't get it to work. I have enough frustrations for a day (including getting a $170 UV drop in sent to me without a contact spring) so calling it a day now. Hoping for some suggestions or help from more experienced fellow members here or these will ended up as an expensive display pieces :mecry:
