    Burning Cartomisers? Dangerous?-510/Kr808/4081...etc filler type cartos

    My old beat up body is telling me that vaping is safer than smoking, heheh. If not, then I'll just say I like it better than smoking and plan to die with a smile on my face. :)

    Epower 14650 battery draining?

    Yes, I read the entire thread, but you said earlier, "There is no way that a freshly charged protected 14650 battery at 4.20V should discharge to 3.6V sitting unused in the pv overnight." I say that the battery probably did not "discharge" overnight to 3.6v. I believe that the electronics of...

    Epower 14650 battery draining?

    The battery for the E-Power is rated at 3.7 volts and it should come off the charger at 4.2 volts. Just measure the battery by itself without installing it in the tube and this is what you should see. However, this voltage doesn't mean anything because the battery does not have a load applied...

    With 12,638 posts, I'd call that longevity, heheh.

    You don't need a perfect carto, hon. All you need is a juice that you like BETTER than a cigarette. Fortunately, I found that juice early on and never wanted a cigarette after that. BTW, congrats on the 2 year thing. I was gonna tell you sooner, but didn't feel up to it at the time.

    HOUSTON area vape meet, Saturday, February 18th, 2012 in Old Town Spring---6pm til ?

    It was a privilege for Peggy and me to attend the meet last night. I didn't count the heads, but a whole bunch of them showed up. You done good, jen. Danno, it was waaaay past time to finally meet you in person. I enjoyed every minute of the whole affair and it seemed as though everyone...

    Burning Cartomisers? Dangerous?-510/Kr808/4081...etc filler type cartos

    Golly, I don't know what to tell you joe. The more I learn about these things, the dumber I get. My recent testing was with a 3.8 ohm coil on 3.9 volts, and I can't recommend that for anyone. One reason I can't is because my mods are radically different from a C-E2, and about the only thing...

    Burning Cartomisers? Dangerous?-510/Kr808/4081...etc filler type cartos

    I've been looking at the vapor and that's what I don't understand, heheh. The vapor is *almost* as much when the numbers get higher, but the juice consumption is half as much. One factor that has been considered is that the number of coil turns on the wick is greater at a higher resistance...

    Many thanks for the offer, Banjo. I may take you up on it later on, but right now I don't know what coil resistance to concentrate on. I won't know until I make up my mind about what battery to go to. However, I am curious about what your new ones will be. Let me know if the majority of...

    Believe it or not, but I have the correct material to build a genisis, and have had it for a long time. Evidently there are reasons why I never built one.

    Burning Cartomisers? Dangerous?-510/Kr808/4081...etc filler type cartos

    You're still thinking in the digital mode, heheh. The meter itself turns it on, because the old meters from the 1920's era had a low resistance. So much so that they could run down a low capacity radio C battery. For this reason they only used one momentarily, and even then they had to...

    Burning Cartomisers? Dangerous?-510/Kr808/4081...etc filler type cartos

    I gotta agree with you about us "low voltage vapors". Not near as many of us around any more. Either that, or we don't hear much out of the ones who are satisfied with "less". It seems like the others are always wanting more, more, more. I was an ultra light cigarette smoker and have always...

    Burning Cartomisers? Dangerous?-510/Kr808/4081...etc filler type cartos

    You may hear more than you want to, cause I have the feeling that this will be a long story, heheh. I can tell you my experience about the voltage, current, and wattage thing, but there is something I do not understand about higher voltages and higher coil resistances. Before going into that...

    Well now, I'm almost half way through the radiation and chemo treatment. It must be doing some good because some of my bodily functions are actually getting better. I'm still doing a bit of testing with the C-E2 mods and can now verify that wattage is not an accurate way to determine a...
