    What battery???

    Not sure if you are running the LG HG2(brown), HE2(red if I remember right), or HB2(green), but all of them are good batteries(for your application, the HG2 would be much better, as it would give you significantly more run time). The 25R is also a great battery. Like I said before, the on-board...

    What battery???

    Most people recommend you don't use the mod to charge the batteries. Since you said you picked up an external charger, I would just use that. The built in charging on some mods can cause issues, so you can just avoid that all together. On the good side, if you are ever somewhere with your usb...

    Best set up

    That is a question with no real answer. It is like asking "which is better, a crotchrocket or an 18 wheeler?" In that instance, if you want to go fast and be nimble, the crotchrocket hands down. If you want to move huge amounts of stuff, the truck is better. Same applies with vaping. If you are...

    Sounds like the issue was just the cotton break in, then. Glad to hear it is all working out for you.

    Newbie Problems - bottle opening

    I know your pain. I have had one of the childproof caps break on me in the past where it still didnt catch when you pressed it down. I finally had to resort to pliers. Anyway, welcome to the forums. Cheers!

    New member from New Zealand a bit overwhelmed

    We all get that new shiny fever. I finally just decided to buy a bunch of thevexact same things. I am really happy with my tfv4 tanks and my griffin 25 tanks. I have a small stockpile of those, then a small stash of rx200 mods. I figure if a ban hits, im ready. If not, i save on coils by only...

    I might be over my head...

    I know the gym socks thing sounds weird, but to me, the taste i get when breaking in new cotton always seems to have the same effect on me as when my nose gets a little too close to a pair of socks that have been too well used. Just give it a little time and see if it gets better. If not...

    I might be over my head...

    Does it taste like gym socks? If so, that is the cotton. I notice it normally takes a few puffs to break it in(sometimes quite a few). Also, it looks like it may be wicked a little heavy.

    charging 2 different batteries at once?

    It would be enough to give a rough estimate. Wouldn't be precise, but I think it would actually be giving a lower number than the real number since the capacity pumped in would be less than the full capacity due to the cell not being ran down to totally empty. How much lower all depends on what...

    charging 2 different batteries at once?

    No real easy way that I know of unless he can measure the actual capacity the cell still has. The C rating is always the amp limit divided by the cell capacity(amp limit/cell capacity=C value...cell capacity is mah/1000). Since we only know the capacity and amp limit when new, we have to get the...

    charging 2 different batteries at once?

    Actually, there is a potential for harm. As a battery's capacity decreases, so does its C rating. Let's assume it was a 2500mah battery. If it was capable of delivering 20 amps when it was new, that means it had a C rating of 8C. If it is down to being a 1500mah capacity, it will still have the...

    charging 2 different batteries at once?

    if your old battery only holds a charge for an hour, i would toss it and get a new one. Batteries are cheap.

    Coil build question

    I really don't know why you would want to take it that far, but I am sure some people do. For me, it is way more than I will need. I like to run my TFV4 at about 80-120w. Really, anything past 150w is more than I will ever use. I guess it is more the idea of "It is nice to know I could if I ever...

    Coil build question

    And it can go all the way to 250w if you update the firmware.

    LG HG2, and who is right?

    Your wall adapter doesnt stop sending power. It is the chip in the device that stops accepting it. That is what people are referring to. If the charging circuit in the device goes bad, it may stop charging altogether(not really too terrible of a thing), or it may overcharge the batteries until...

    Help!! sigelei 213

    It could be that he is using something like a 1 ohm coil and the sigelei may only be a buck chip, not a buck/boost chip(not sure on buck or buck/boost, but I know my old sig 150 was only a buck chip). If that is the case, at 8.4v, it would only be able to put out 70.5 watts at a full charge, and...

    Cloud Chasing

    If you go with that, just be sure you thoroughly prime the coils. They are BIG coils, and they hold A LOT of juice. When i prime them, I literally just let juice run down the inside of them while rotating them. This lets the juice soak the cotton all the way around. It will soak up about 1ml of...
