    Vamo/Bamboo Question

    Hybrid is such a lame ... term. All li-Ions can be considered hybrids. And what exactly is your ICR comment supposed to mean? Samsung makes many batteries with an ICR designation. Depending on which one the chemistry can be NCM/LCO, NCM, NCM/LMO. I guess that makes them all hybrids...

    Problem on Ecigarette mod - Voltage Problem

    Yea OK. Folks have being using mosfets, for dinky switches or touch switches, in their mods long before IMRs came onto the scene. And you need neither 'IMR round cells, or RC hobby-grade flat LiPo cells' to get a a piddling 2-3A, nor does it have to be continuous even. A decent 2600 Li-Ion...

    Problem on Ecigarette mod - Voltage Problem

    Wells here's an easier to see pic. She went to the mosfet approach because those little ball tact switches were burning out on their own. As you can see she is following the same route as the pics I posted, switching the neg lead. She gave no real reason but on her later builds she...

    Fast reliable charger??

    Basically the charging terminates by the current, different makers use different amounts, getting to 4.2V is only part of the battle. BatteryU uses the term 'saturation'. Looking at 4.20V, I want 100% not 85%. I'm not into overly coddling batteries, they are by far the smallest...

    Received DNA20 Board...conductive glue instead of solder???

    Why is it off topic? The dude can't solder and wants to glue on the the wires. Here's an alternative with the wires already on. The Nivel is also a mature assembly that's been out in the field for over a year. Didn't you manage to trash at least one? Any efficient assembly made uses PWM...

    Problem on Ecigarette mod - Voltage Problem

    Do it like that. I can't figure out what you are trying to accomplish with that design. Get a decent switch and forget about the mosfet. Here's some basic diagrams using an N-MOS if you feel you want one.

    Or you sell it and pick up one these. Variable Wattage Power Regulation With A Brilliant One-Button User Interface Is Finally Available in the USA | The Nivel Chip Note the color coded wires which are already attached. Plus it's got a single button interface/fire arrangement. No time and...

    New to modding--first design

    The Nivel chip sure makes life easy with it's one button aproach. Seems ya gotta lot of meat left around your battery. If it's an 18650, looks like ya got room for a 26650 instead.

    Fast reliable charger??

    It doesn't work like that. Does a 1000mA charger charge twice as fast as a 500mA one? Nope. Nor can it be so simply determined as per your example. The actual time a charger is running at it's max current is rather limited. From this chart you can see that at the half way mark of...

    What am I doing wrong with carto's

    Try a few drops into your drip tip and see if that helps. I've often found that even leakers (through the connector) will have dry filler at the top.

    Are you holding it like the 'pros'? It that thing has a fill hole screw, try leaving it open.

    Sub Ohm Coils

    First off we have been been exceeding a battery's max discharge rating pretty much from day one with our mods on this forum when 14500s were the most used cells. If you are really concerned just get a true IMR like the AW18650 1600mAh, not a pretend one like the Panasonic.

    Help! I broke my box mod...

    A little extra added support is the key. Just shoving it back in seems like a temporary fix at best. The hole is now looser. I imagine over time there has been eliquid that has worked it's way into the wood and joint, softening both the epoxy and the wood. A carefully reamed out finishing...

    He's an idiot. Lotsa YouTube soldering vids.

    Calculating battery discharge time

    This may help put things into perspective. Even at a rather paltry .8A drain we see that the 900mAh cell is only 592mAh and at a constant drain it lasted 44min. All mAh ratings have to taken with a grain of salt, Panasonic with it's Li-Ions uses a 2.5V cut-off, not appropriate for our...

    Notcigs has these back in stock. Powerizer Rcr123a 3.7 volt real 650 mah Buzz battery - notcigs.com Sure looks like a much choice over the AWs.

    God, I hate this . . . . .

    No it's not, you still only have one coil.
