AWESOME thread... thank you, Mamu, for the awesome write-up and all of the Q&A you've done here and elsewhere in this section!!
Endeavoring on my first DIY mod, so I may have some questions for you along the way. I have an engineering background and I generally take to these things quite nicely. Plus, I'm a total geek and I absolutely LOVE to build things! After my Milo is done, I'll be vaping with a mod I built, on an atty I constructed, with juice that I've brewed. Pretty cool to think about considering I started with a 180mah manual button 510 in 2009 : P
I DIGRESS... Are these the batteries you used?
2X 25c 3 7V 1200mAh LiPo Battery for Syma S006 S006 24 | eBay
$16 shipped... 3 weeks or so from Hong Kong. Any better options? I found some that looked almost identical to the ones in your PDF how-to, but they're only 20c
2 x 3 7V 1000mAh 1100mAh 1200mAh 20c LiPo Battery Double Horse 9074 9051 9009 | eBay
Can I trust these "straight from China" batteries in terms of safety and longevity?
