The NEPS screws are NOT out of LP....they come from a maker in Madrid. LP merely sells them, like many other vendors. One thing I HIGHLY recommend is putting in a flat headed punch -- a 3/32nds for a German wire or the foil end of a reamer for the French style (which includes LP) and GENTLY tapping it a fedw times to make sure the contacts are level, which helps with reliably firing the light. It's been part of my epee wiring for years.
I understand that the process is essentially the same and parts (especially the NEPS screws) are largely interchangeable (unlike foil). These in the video are Leon Paul (British) which their page suggests is a German design.
@@seantobiasmay Only the wire is truly a French pattern...tips from the major makers can be swapped in epee -- a Sport 7 French tip will work in an FWF German barrel just fine.

Thanks for the video. Is this a French tip or German tip?
