I am trying to avoid the telescopic mods and the ones where the tube unscrews into 3 pieces because that seems to be the general theory when low ohming.
I am looking for a switch with a magnet rather than a spring because I am led to believe springs tend to get hot.
The stingray doesn't appeal to me because it is too shiny and I don't like the contrast of the black etching on the brass.
So many mech mods seem to be a plain tube with a bit of etching down the bottom which looks like it was kinda added as an afterthought. I would prefer something either completely plain or completely wild, the current vogue just makes me go meh.
I have even widened the search to include pretty much any finish that isn't copper or s/steel and I am still struggling to find something that makes me go ooh. There are loads of nice mods out there, but they all seem to be available in the finishes I have already got, or have enroute.
The King and the Illuminatus are the two that most appeal I guess. I like the nuts on the king v1, and the illuminatus has something going for it, only trouble is that that image has some personal connotations I am not sure I can over come.
The one advantage of this taking so long is my budget might go up as pay day isn't far off. I have trawled through all the catalogues of all the sites I can find, so if anyone can suggest some more unusual sites that are based in Mainland Europe I would be grateful as I haven't had much of a look over there yet.
