    Warning About Adapters on S6 901 Adapters

    I have a slew of generic adapters, both the long black kind and the short metal ones that almost disappear. Each and every one of them have given me nothing but trouble with all of the PVs I've used them with. The interchangeable, dedicated adapters that are an integral part of the S6 design...

    Indulgence - First Look

    Re: Indulgence or addiction, my rule is for my PVs to look serious such that no one in polite company ever questions what I'm doing. The only printing I would prefer to nothing at all would be for it to look like drug store prescription information on mine. It would take a gun to my head for...

    Question about TENERGY LIFEPO4 RCR123A

    I'm using an Excellerator charger from South Summit, with their 3v CR2s though. It doesn't look impressive but it always stops at 3.6v. The one time I forgot them and left them charging over night, they were still at 3.6. Sitting a few hours, they come down to around 3.46. There was one...

    botton question

    Very cool design. It might be prudent to vent the plastic cylinder in case of a battery outgassing. It would of course lose the water proofing.

    Ultrasonic Jewelry Cleaner for cleaning an atty?

    Is this a problem? Does it make the atties smell Canadian?:D

    Unprotected Lithium Ion Battery Safety

    I'm also using my VOM to match the power curves of my Excellerator CR2s. I then mate them into matched pairs. BTW: My experience with these LifePo4 bats in my S6 is much like djdavis's Li bats except that the Excellerator charger always stops at 3.6v and weird as it sounds, it seems as though...

    Warning Regarding CR2 Batteries

    I've asked in another thread but didn't get an answer: Do atomizers ever die by shorting out? Has anyone experienced this? If so, this will torture the batteries and should be taken into consideration. No power source wants to operate into a dead short.

    Question about TENERGY LIFEPO4 RCR123A

    I don't believe any of the batteries appropriate to our uses are regulated. Voltage is a function of the chemistry. I'm using the much maligned Excellerators. Summit sent me replacements for the first set I bought as each battery showed different voltages when fully charged and at the end of...

    Limited Double SB

    Absolutely. In series you double the impedance. You'd then have something similar to but less convenient than a High Voltage Atomizer which I'm pretty sure has two heater coils and one very large bridge in one cylinder. Realistically, @ 3.7v, this would probably vape too cool for most people but...

    A charging question for Di - and others

    Di, Please don't do this. This charger will try to bring 3v batteries up to 4.2v and this will kill them rapidly. It is also dangerous to overcharge a battery.

    Another battery thread

    From going to Juice's own site Rechargeable Lithium Photo Batteries where they don't have these listed as a current product and seeing their limited availability I have a gut feeling that these are three or four years old stock of a discontinued product. If this is true, they would lose some of...

    Limited Double SB

    If the two atomizers are being run in parallel this could be dangerous. If each one is a 3.2 ohm load, the battery is looking at a load of 1.6 ohms. This is uncomfortably close to a short circuit.

    Decadent Vapors At US TW?

    Add at least 30% VG. If you're in a humid locale, cut down on or don't use any water.

    Ultrasonic Jewelry Cleaner for cleaning an atty?

    I agree and have used it successfully. After months of trial and observation I've settled on a wash with pure PG (like dissolves like and PG is a solvent) followed by a wash with 155 proof alcohol. To keep the quantity of liquid low I put 4 atties in a small sake cup in the machine. BTW: great...

    New Product Coming Soon!

    If a 14500 fits, why not two CR2s? Is it too much current for the switch? Do you make the connector or is it a press-on like the stock batteries use? Why no 801?:-( (Its the fav of many long time vapors)

    Question about TENERGY LIFEPO4 RCR123A

    Just noticed Cisco's informative post. Using these with the higher impedance High Voltage Atties will bring down the current to be within the specs and will allow them to last longer between charges. Since they will then vape a bit cooler, they may not give quite the throat hit. Your choice...
