These were a few fast and dirty mods to get this working so this is by no means 'pristine' has a few tool marks on the switch.

Heron has been upgraded with genuine O ring set from Vapour Art.

Lovely and small device, by a stroke of luck the serial number on the switch lines up with the logo on the tube. Also locking ring IS reverse threaded.

Gpin has been machined so it sits more recessed, i machined slightly too far and as a result the gpin is now fixed and no longer spring loaded, it is locked in place with solder and will likely only work with this modded Caravela setup

Also the thread on the switch is a lot shorter but screws tightly and securely in place, also switch throw is shorter, which is a good thing, and also smooth :)

I've been using this with KeepPower 18500 flat top batteries, no idea if other brand 18500's will work but should if they are the same size, if needed i can supply a couple of the Keeppower 18500's separately if you'd like them.

RRP? No idea, these aren't in the same format i originally bought them in so would be unfair to attach that pricetag to them, also i can't possibly put a pricetag on my shoddy amateur workmanship, you'll either want to buy it at a price you're willing to pay or you wont :)
