    Colorado man sues after explosion

    The purchase of the mod in this case was in early Nov, 2011. The 3.1 version was added when? The new ECF specs/recommendations here came out when? The prodigy single cell recommendation and stacked cells being removed from the vendor's web site was when? People using stacked batteries in this...

    Colorado man sues after explosion

    have you ever seen an oddly shaped roll of toilet paper? That would be handy to keep the roll from unloading on it's own. should be easy to roll up a triangle shaped roll of T-paper or paper towels or Li-ion batteries.

    Man Claims E-Smoke Exploded in His Face

    If he asked here on ECF , would Protegy users tell him to use a 17670 single cell, or would they tell which little batteries to stack in it? Regardless what is recommended by the vendor, the experts here will recommend one type of little cells to stack for 6 volts and another type for 7 volts...

    Colorado man sues after explosion

    and for the mod involved is a single cell. not two 3 volt cells for 6 volts and not two 3.7 volt cells. Everyone only uses a single high quality cell in this mod, right?

    Colorado man sues after explosion

    Would that exclude all the people bragging about stacking 3 volt cells in their Provaris? Sort of common practice in the largest and most authoritative forum in the world. Sort like going to a Cadillac forum and following advice to run avgas for more power. Haven't seem any official advice...

    maybe he asked his local ratshack expert what would work in his 'mod'.

    Colorado man sues after explosion

    Didn't Puresmoker use to sell Cr123 size cells but removed them when the stacked battery issue bloomed? They advertise the Protegy as a 3.7 volt device now. How many bought earlier models just to stack? If someone you know has an earlier model using Puresmoker stacked batteries (the ones they...

    The density of liquids and possible volume contration

    kurt, I changed to mixing to a predetermined final volume after noticing I would usually come up short. I've noticed about a 6% loss in volume when mixing a 10% nic/pg base with equal amounts of pg and vg down to a 1.5% nic then measuring total final volume. Using grade A cylinders and a grade...

    Exploding eGo-T battery

    I tried to blow it up on purpose but I was foiled by that darn protection board. I tried really hard. Honest :)

    Vented Ultrafire - An Edgy-Kation in protected batteries

    removing the plastic wrapper would tell you if you forced the 'nipple' positive contact off center and it touched the negative cell case (my guess). If the kapton tape under the sense strip was damaged that would show. The same thing can happen trying to force a cell into a tight charger...

    Exploding eGo-T battery

    you mean this protection board in the bottom of the new eGo-C? Based on the standard DW01 protection chip? Good move putting overcharge protection and not just relying on the charger.

    simplification of the switch for those new to modding...

    How does the switch know what wattage you are vaping? The switch sees "open circuit voltage" when open and "contact voltage drop" when closed. High voltage rating applies to insulation and contact profile to reduce arcing. Some switch designs MAY be able to handle a higher current at low DC...

    Wizard Labs Nic Base Reviews

    that part of your math is fine. using proper units can help. the strength, before thinning and flavor will be 18.5 mg/ml. you will end up with 12000 mg of nicotine in a 650ml solution. sounds like you just got surprised by nomenclature and labeling. Good luck, enjoy. ( Houston; back...

    Wizard Labs Nic Base Reviews

    Not to sound harsh, but you have demonstrated you may not be ready to open that bottle. don't rush it. learn first, please. Lookma, what is your normal vaping strength? and do you vape pg or vg based e-juice, or a blend?

    Wizard Labs Nic Base Reviews

    time to do some learning. Quick, before you open that bottle. Do not start mixing until you can answer your own question. You got what you ordered. nicotine solutions are mixed down from pure nicotine to, in your case, 10%. This is 100mg of nic in each and every one of those 120ml. That...
