Brass vs Aluminum Weight

[jboze]

Dave, could you put a an all aluminum Super Six and one with all brass options (button, atomizer connection, and mouth piece) on a scale so we can get an actual idea of the weight difference?

I really like the look of the brass, but I'm a bit worried about how much heavier it will make the device.

I unfortunately don't have a small measuring scale. I can tell you that Brass weighs approximately 3 times as much by volume as aluminum and thus probably doubles the weight of the unit compared to using aluminum caps.

Cool. Thanks for the reply Dave. Any chance anyone knows the weight of the original unit?

The body feels in the hand as it was made out of paper at 9.49 grams
the switch- 7.84 grams
901 adapter -11.18 grams.
It looks as if it is made out of sterling silver.
Absolutely outstanding device !
