    Default GLV resistor free 6.v!

    Iv gotten a ton of email asking if i can leave out the resistor so iv made it an option for the body only kits. I do not carry the 3.v batteries to make it a 6.v mod that's why these will be body only for a bit.

    Well aren't THEY gonna regret choosing outside the sweet spot huh !! lol.....

    Maybe down the road Jay, you can look at a switch to bypass the resistor should someone want to have that option... however, it would certainly be a shock to throw the switch and vape a 7.2v shot (obviously for a very very short period, haha).

    The Only advantage I see with resistor free is you could vape at 3.7 also w/ battery config.
    5v is better than 6v, but you cant do 3.7v with the present setup w/resistor.

    So it might be nice.

    Wish you could do 5 and 3.7v in the present setup, but 5v is awesome.

    Having done 6v for some time on other PVs, I found 5v is the sweet spot and saves on attys too..

    I've had much success with vaping at 6v+. I think it's more like 7.2v with two fully charged 3.0v cr123a. The most important thing to remember is to keep the atomizer moist. The drip method seems to work the best at the higher volts. I would not recommend 6v+ for those who like to use carts. Just thought I would put my two cents in. 5v is great, but some of us hedonistic nicotine feens need even more. Cheers.

    I like that idea, but why not just sell heads without a resistor instead of a whole body? Sooner or later there are going to be some people like me who already have long 5/6v body tubes, but just want head's with or without resistors. 5v really is a sweet spot though. My 510 attys and KR cartomizers work really, REALLY well at 5v.

    Is the resistor in the head? That would be a great idea if they were.
    Resistor might be in the bottom above the positive battery connector.

    The resistor sits directly under the positive contact in the adaptor cap. I can see it quite clearly.

    yeah the resistor is in the head. really the only problem with putting a new head on your existing body is that the atty connector might not line up properly with the laser etching on the body. this would only be a minor cosmetic problem for some. if no one really cared about the atty connecter being lined up properly with the etching you could change heads easily.
