Can I ask why you're using a connector with ego threading ? wouldn't it be better with a flush 510 and use an adapter for the times you'd use an atty with ego threading ?

Sounds like an interesting mod Super-Shiny, although I have no idea what you are making. I just wanted to advise caution when using soft skinned Li-Po cells/batteries. I have used them in aeromodelling for a number of years and they can be unexpectedly volatile. Not sure what your experience is with these batteries and I'm sure you've done your homework but safety first is an absolute must. Make sure you have a top brand dedicated Li-Po charger with full conditioning and individual cell monitoring functions. Always charge them in a metal container (old ammo boxes are good), or outside. They release a massive amount of gas when cooking off and can burst open a charge safe bag. Don't puncture, bend, dent, drop or otherwise compromise the outer wrap. If you hear a noise like water boiling or steam escaping, feel heat, see a bulge, etc chuck it outside and walk away. Although I abuse my other cells/batteries I've never had an issue. I've had a couple of Li-Po's go thermal on me and it's no fun, these are not to be messed with.

Sound like what is being said is do not use Li-Po batteries. Be much better to stick with 18650 or 18350 cells, or indeed the smaller diameter ones you can get.

This all sounds really interesting Super Shiney. I am intrigued to see the end result, which I dare say you will be showing it off when finished. The DNA mod that Mamu made was a cool looker and functional too, so this new idea will be interesting.
