    The Vmod XL 18650 Bottom Feeding Mod from Vapage - Part 2

    Brilliant, thanks for the detailed instructions :) Yesterday I had a look into the thing after reading your post. I figured out the double plates bit but I was really wondering about the kick size. I thought you were using smaller bottles. I don't have steel sheet to cut right now, but I'll have...

    The Vmod XL 18650 Bottom Feeding Mod from Vapage - Part 2

    That sounds truly awesome! Could anybody point me to the video? I have been modding for kick my Ali'i and vapage XL today (usual copper foil trick), and on the vapage ran into the problem that the kick will touch the switch connection resulting in firing. Basically the slot in the plastic is...

    Ali'i Bottom feeder Replacement Bottles and full assembly?

    I recently got an Ali'i second hand and it only comes with one bottle and tubing. Could anybody suggest where I could get spare bottles and tubing/needle, or even how to DIY the assembly, if it's not available anywhere? I understand Kaji is not making the Ali'i any more, otherwise I would ask...

    The Vmod XL 18650 Bottom Feeding Mod from Vapage - Part 2

    Thanks, but I am not 100% sure about this. I have a mod which allows to set the cutoff point under 3,2V, and by mistake I set it that way once, and the batteries (original AW IMR) did discharge to 3,1v, according to my volt meter. As you say, performance stayed constant to the very end, and...

    The Vmod XL 18650 Bottom Feeding Mod from Vapage - Part 2

    Sorry for quoting a quite old post :) I just got a vmod xl and I understand it's a fully mechanical mode. Wouldn't using IMR batteries on a mechanical mod introduce the risk of over discharging them? I have been told that discharging an IMR under 3,2V will not only spoil the battery, but...

    Should I use a separate carto for each flavor? What is this burning feeling in the back of my throat

    If it's leaking at the bottom, you probably burned inadvertently the air conduit, so the juice is basically leakign from the filler into the air tube, and then from the bottom. This can happen when firing a carto which is not well soaked yet, I did that with my first carto tank :) If that's the...

    Should I use a separate carto for each flavor? What is this burning feeling in the back of my throat

    Sound strange if they are the same kind of cartos. This said, 30 mins chainvaping at 24mg has quite a lot of potential for causing problems to your throat. Consider that our throat and mouth are quite resilient, so it takes a while to build up enough damage that vaping and smoking become...

    Should I use a separate carto for each flavor? What is this burning feeling in the back of my throat

    I certainly agree that using a 306 is a great way of testing flavours. Just, I am not sure dry burning after cleaning is a good idea, it's easy to damage the atty that way. Ikenvape explicitly discourage dry burning of their attys, as it will shorten their life considerably. The burning on your...

    Stop the presses, new lavatube 3.0 is about to hit with a 4 amp limit!

    Encouraging. Obviously, it will take a bit of testing to determine if,and in which conditions, it delivers, but the low amperage is pretty much my only gripe with my LT, since I fitted an IMR battery. Actually, for the lavatube to become the perfect mod, there are a few things: Ability to check...

    ECOpure Krystal & EVO Atomizers - Discontinued?

    I have tried both and my impression is that the old line was better, flavour and taste wise. I flagged this on an email and they replied that materials and production procedures were unchanged, so the taste should stay the same, I run a blind test with two identical stardust and still they taste...

    Voltage and Voltage under load, what can I make of these two values?

    Brilliant, thanks ! I was wondering if that could be the case and was about to send youa message about it, but you beat me to it :)

    Stanstead security on EU flight - Any problems carrying mods in hand luggage?

    That's good news :) I would have put my question up on UKV, was it not down. Thanks for being so helpful both sides of the ocean :) Sent from my SK17i using Tapatalk

    Voltage and Voltage under load, what can I make of these two values?

    Ohh, I see. Thanks. I never stop learning. I think my meter has no relative button, I'll give it a go now. I don't own a provari. To be honest, if I used a provari probably I wouldn't be too worried about batteries health as the thing keeps checking them continuously, or so I understood. But the...

    Voltage and Voltage under load, what can I make of these two values?

    Thanks, just what I was looking for :) Pity my vv doesn't give me the atty resistance too. I checked a few with a voltmeter and they can sometimes diverge significantly from the declared value. So it's a 2 steps process for me. Checking atty resistance and then check voltage no load/under load...

    Carto makes a flickering noise on my VV, hissing sound on anything else. Possible problem?

    I was trying several cartos and clearomizers on my VV box. I realized that some of them, includign a stardust, makes a flickering sound. As for the rest, they seem to work ok. When on my egos and lavatube, they make the usual hissing sound. All tested at 3,7v on all VPs. Now, the mod had a...

    Voltage and Voltage under load, what can I make of these two values?

    I own a lovely VV box mod with display. With a carto screwed in it gives me the voltage and when I fire another value for the voltage under load. For instance, 7.9 and then 7.4 under load. I know the difference between two values can tell me something about my batteries state, perhpas the...
