I think you need to re-read my post. I am saying the exact opposite to that.

Oh, sorry my bad. Since you were so into taking the full 4.2 volts to calculate in the first place I thought you found it safe and only browsed over your post without even ready properly.

Anyway, the way you are safer is because you aren't overdrawing your battery.

This is painful!!

@r055co, we may disagree - but at least I know you know what you are talking about. @yvaiwhy, please re-read this thread and re-visit ohms law.

Sure, I don't have an ego the size of my head. I'll read it till I can read it by heart but no way anyone will recommend taking 4.2 volts as a voltage for building. Maybe you sir know too much. I mistakenly read your post wrong and thought you said over drawing the battery was safe. But you sir need to Join me in the OHMS law for dummies class. I'll sit by and make sure somebody knocks some common sense into that thick skull of yours [emoji4]

Me, I just stay up with Mooch's posts, watch his interviews (multiple times) and I'm good with that ;)


He is the one reliable source when it comes to anything batteries [emoji106] But people like Ben talking without knowledge is a disaster. Sure, maybe I mistakenly read his post as him pro over drawing the Battery. Or he edited the post. If he had a clue of what he was talking about he wouldn't even calculate at 4.2. Hence he later agreed that 3.7 is indeed safe. But questioned why. We all need to educate ourselves and help other within our knowledge eh [emoji4]

Well, this turned South fairly quickly.....

Anyway. As for budget i got around 4k in my currency, wich would be around 400 freedomdollars. And no, i want authentic items, not a clone.

I like the Avid Lyfe setups, you can get a decent mod under $400 for sure. Broadside is also a good one. It has a Delrin tube inside which will prevent any hard shorts in case a battery Wrap is accidentally torn [emoji23]

Just for one last time, I have never said that 3.7 is OK. I also never edited the post and the fact you say as such shows just how clueless you are as you have missed the point since post 1.

Will check out that Shiva , if someone with 50 mechs recommend it then it's gotta be good [emoji4]

you just can't really go wrong with Pinoy Mod's, Filipinos really know their Mech's ;)

If you've got the scratch 2JNT Pilak are mind blowing, 92% pure Silver, amazing doesn't even begin to describe them.

Can a mod delete this thread? It has turned into a ....ing ....show in a " my dick is bigger than yours" kind of way. I`ve had my eyes on a Broadside for a while and it will most likely be the one i get, i just wanted to get some input from people who actually ADV with a tube. Not a 4 page thread of " no! You`r dumb!!" " NO YOU are dumb"

They tend to do that sadly at times in public forums.

Anyway the Broadside is a good tube, I don't own one personally since I have the Subzero. The Broadside copied the style from them and added the inner delrin tube which is a nice touch.

Never mind that, you know what we are talking about and clearly have an idea of what you are getting into. The broadside is one fine piece of work too. Specially with the Reload RDA by Reload Vapor [emoji51]

Most Pinoy mods are IME over rated.

I cant recommend the Revolver unless you enjoy modifying your gear to fix design flaws.

With the GI Revolver, the brass 510 is press-fit into the aluminum body.
When installing an atomizer, the center pin pushes the entire brass 510 threaded piece out of the mod.

Its a serious design flaw that makes it both dangerous and can damage your gear.

Its a simple fix but unacceptable in any mod at any price.

Its alot of hassle.
Its fixable, but if I spent full retail on an authentic, id wanna fly to the Philippines and whoop someone's :censored:.

This thing has screws all over it holding it together.
1 more would have solved the issue.
:facepalm: .

Its a decent mod after the fix, but just feels like they phoned it in at the last minute.

There are far better ways to spend a few hundred bucks on vape gear.

True that [emoji106] too bad they missed out that little detail.

Are you for real? Drawing 21A from a 20A battery is safer than drawing 18.5A? [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

Do you actually believe that doing the calculation using a higher voltage means that the amp draw will be higher in actual use!?
