    Duel AW IMR14500 Verse Trustfire 14500 Flame on a Smoktek Varicool

    Might help with the analysis if you think watts in -10% (converter losses) equals watts out. Looks like you picked some cells suitable for your application. Good job.

    Mod with Safety issues???

    Count your safety features like you count money. One dollar, one dollar and 25 cents, one dollar and 30 cents, one dollar and 31 cents.

    Mod with Safety issues???

    So using both an American calculator (microsoft windows) and a UK calculator, a few 1/8" (3mm) holes are eye candy. But guessing that a single somewhat short path and vent to atmosphere with a cross sectional area equal to or larger than the vent at the top of a cell (about 16mm diameter for a...

    Mod with Safety issues???

    Got ya ! I don't know about metric sizes :) but for 600 square mm converted to the English system: A 1 inch hole is not big enough. 16 0.25" holes are not enough. 64 0.125" holes are not enough. 600 0.040" holes makes it with a little room to spare Whoops, error, need more than 600 0.040"...

    SmokTech Telescope is air tight!

    Is this the first example of a product safety recall for a PV? http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/gotvapes/322993-smoktech-telescope-official-tube-exchange-announcement.html#post6932491 That's pretty stand up in my oppinion. I've seen vendors that would SELL you a safety UPGRADE, but I...

    Smoktech Telescope Mod

    mo bedter :) and, you probably can't buy one now. I think all vendors have recalled them. No need to get upset.

    Show me where that is said. Show me one example. Or did you just make that up?

    SmokTech Telescope is air tight!

    I will go on record and repeat what I said ealier that I do not believe this model to be a safe PV in it's present configuration. I suggest anyone that has one of these to contact your vendor and discuss a replacement. I am not implying that the vendors that have marketed this device or the...

    SmokTech Telescope is air tight!

    Come on folks. Don't we have more reasons that this is an unjustified false alarm and part of the normal risk with a PV? Like maybe this, or maybe that? Or maybe a party balloon was used, not an industrial grade balloon? Or maybe there are invisible vents we don't see? Just show me where...

    Why is everyone so wrapped up about the balloon video. Do we live by Youtube videos? Read the first post. The text. It is one of our peers raising an alert. Thank you very much. It would be nice if the manufacturers would work with us, the e-cig user community and publish test data...

    SmokTech Telescope is air tight!

    How about this? I did not do any testing, not even a balloon test. By looking at pictures of the mod I do not see adequate safety features. I challenge someone with the proper background to demonstrate, either by design analysis or emperically, that this is a safe mod. Rocket thinks this mod is...

    SmokTech Telescope is air tight!

    What is the gas velocity for a sealed mod? What is terminal pressure for a Li-ion cell? You have been looking, what did you find? I think "suspect unsafe" is adequate for the manufacturer to react. Presenting the possibility, for peer review, that a mod, PV, whatever, is potentially...

    and we are really sure that the trustfire actually has a protection board on it? Circuit board on negative end and thin sense strip running up the side to the positive cap?

    SmokTech Telescope is air tight!

    So I take it you're still smoking cigarettes waiting on certified testing of a safe PV? Or do you have one proven to be safe?
