The Box







Comes in  plain white box with just KENNEDY #24 printed on top, the 24 refers to the diameter of the mod it's 24mm wide.
Inside you'll find your Ruby mod a screwdriver, glass cap and a bag with spare screws and o-rings.
I'm not a big fan of glass RDA caps myself but i did test it and it fits snug on the deck, be sure to lube up the o-rings before using the glass cap or you could crack it.

Drip Tip & Barrel





Comes with a wide bore stainless steel drip tip, the barrel is one piece with an o-ring fitted in the top to hold the drip tip.
Kennedy logo is engraved on the side.

The Deck



For those unfamiliar with the Ruby the deck is built into the mod it's not removable so you have direct contact with the battery.
3 post design with stainless steel negative posts and a copper positive post.
The post holes on the negative posts are 2mm wide and the post hole on the positive post is 2.5mm.
There are 2 air holes on each side each hole is 3mm wide.
Juice well looks to be about 7 or 8mm deep.
2 o-rings to secure the barrel, the Ruby logo is etched on one side and a fake serial number on the other.

The Switch







The switch assembly is made up of 4 parts and easily disassembled for cleaning and maintenance.

Verdict 



Not bad, not bad at all.
The machining is good all round everything fits well and the threading is smooth.

I really do like the switch design it self adjusts for battery rattle , it comes apart easily and it's a nice smooth action.

The airflow can be a little noisy dependent on how high you place your coils above the air holes.

There's obviously no way to test the resistance of your coils once installed so you'll need to be familiar with resistance calculations and work them out before you do your build.

Love love, love the simplicity of this, it's just so damn elegant! Possibly too good for me

Kennedy do the same mod but without the built on atty called the Roundhouse, the switch and tube are identical it just has a regular hybrid style top.

Haven't seen any clones of that one yet.
Bound to happen sooner or later though.

And it's only marginally more expensive than the clone laughing_smiley

Having ordered a dotmod clone the other day and now the Ruby, I may have to wait a little while for this one. It is blooming lovely though
