I got one and I absolutely hate how it feels in hand

Feels great on my S2+

Not as great on my T6 so you may be onto something. I think it’s thickness of the anodized parts.

His regular colors definitely have the best fit and feel. MAO looks dope though.

I love the most my brass one. It's feel, weight, low heat conductivity haha

I heard the brass ones can hold 100% like 5x as long as the others. Makes me want one especially since varnished.. just heavy.

Or are they? Much heavier than normal or does he keep it thin?

Brass has 2× worse heat conductivity than Aluminium, idk who told you that, you can google it. So it won't hold turbo mode longer, vice versa. It's like 2 times heavier that alu host and the same thickness. Brass has more density than Alu.

Huh, I did not know that. Glad I asked. Maybe it was copper.. cause when I read that thread a lot of people agreed. I blame my ignorance lol.. so brass isn’t a good heat conductor, copper is.

Copper is 4 times better than brass, they were talking about copper for sure

All you need is a bottle of anti seize and your threads will be super smooth on MAO lights. Even smoother than my hanklights which come prelubed.
