Vincent, it takes about two weeks to receive Towers in States? Do insured packages get quicker delivery?

Finally, I am surprised that no one questioned us about where we got the premium Rebel 100 (which cost us a bomb), what sort of Bin it is... You know it took us a lot of effort to find them? At the moment Rebel 100 are so hard to find in medium quantity. Since no one cared about them I won't tell you all then :naughty::naughty::naughty:.
To those who have posted their opinion thank for your comments. It's very positive and encouraging to me. May your E-MT serve you for many years to come. To the others who will be receiving the E-MT please do post back as soon as you have explore the performance of the E-MT. I would be glad if you could give me some feedback.
I would like to discuss a little bit about the E-MT build. The tower is cleaned, free of grease then Rebel stuck on the tower, with Arctic Alumina epoxy. Centering the Rebel is easy and not difficult. It is not important in E-MT application but I did take effort to center them as the AA settles.
The two blue wires are high quality Made in USA, high temperature, silver plated copper wires. Yes they are quite thin, any thicker is not quite possible because as you can see the little holes are too small. Current going through shouldn't be a problem, they are quite short. They are quite strong when soldered, but I felt that the connection pad on the Rebel is too small to withstand very strong tug so I had to coat the head+wire with ultra clear epoxy. So when settle it is pretty solid head. It will require a lot of effort to knock it off so I would be very surprised if someone tell me that it came out by itself. Having said that, please don't be stupid and try to pry it off, the hard gummy dome will probably come off first.
Regarding the aluminium tower, it isn't perfect, there is usual machining marks, if we op for a smooth perfect finish then it will cost more so we didn't as the tower will go into the light and you probably won't see it much. About the lettering, yes it's hand punched. I think it's ugly but it adds a touch of custom madeI am sorry about that. If you think it's ugly you can use some alcohol and clean it off, the punch marks will still be there.
