    smoking an auto 901 in the shower

    I prefer automatic batteries to manual..I have the alternative but I use automatic when I can, you just need to avoid getting the switch wet which isn't that difficult. Also, I've overfilled cartomizers on my Nebula a few times and the battery is still working fine. If you enjoy using it in the...

    Smoke Everywhere Rip Off

    Having a presence in malls and general retail environment is a really good thing for us all. It increases acceptance and understanding which is times such as these especially in the US(FDA) is important. Once people actually buy one its very likely they'll do some googling and find prices...

    Have you read the SE free tryout conditions?

    Their prices are high as has been discussed in the other thread but the terms of the auto-renew are standard.

    5 v test all day vaping atties last 510 901 801

    I've been vaping for 6 months now, mostly on 5volts, I've lost one 4075 from normal usage. I lost one 4075 from cleaning with coke , probably due to the phosphoric acid eating the solder joints and 2 'real' 901's and 2 4075's from 6volt experiments. So in 6 months I've lost one 4075 from...

    Online battery life calculator.

    Yes, I forgot to add that to my post, there's also 'leakage' to take into account too but it does help in comparing like for like if you know roughly how long a certain mah will last you.

    Online battery life calculator.

    I did a search and couldn't find this linked. Should be useful for non-mathematical users in determining different battery ratings and how long they will last. Battery Time Calc

    KR808D-1 @ 5v?

    Yes using a drilled cartomizer on a 901 threaded passthrough. It works fine but the benefits of the KR808-D are for situations where you can't use a passthrough and wouldn't want to use a mod in my opinion. The battery life using the PCC means that isn't an issue and the taste/throat hit you get...

    Atomizer temps at 5v

    510's (tho' I don't own one, yet) do run hotter than most other atomizers. IIRC the original design had to be changed after complaints about how hot they got. For what it's worth I've run 901's/4075's and 801's for a few months on 5volts/1amp with no deaths, 6volts did kill them though...

    New Modder- What tools do I need?

    Added onto breakfastchef's list I use a small vice which I attach onto an old desk for drilling small parts such as torches and pcb. I'm not sure I'd be able to manage without that vice and it cost all of £1gbp off ebay. I'm sure you'll find something similar but avoid those plastic things. This...

    Bulli extreme review (901 version)

    Those TW 4075's glow red hot within a couple of seconds of 6volts, I managed to make 1 last 3 hours before it died. I've got another that glows what appears to be white hot under 6v and it still works albeit with incredibly hot vapour (obviously). I'm not sure how people are managing with 6volts...

    DPV9 from Eastmall

    Anyone else notice the black Nebula batteries are larger than the silver? At least the ones I've got from EastMall. I'd heard the black batteries were 'better' from someone on the forums, I guess that's the reason why.. still it's a bit odd though. Bottom battery is a 901 for random comparison...

    Vape88 manual USB Passthrough and batts.

    It's a very simple design, you need an old usb cable, a switch, a battery or atomizer casing and a battery connector. The negative connector from the usb cable is soldered to the case. The positive line is soldered to the switch and then another line from the switch to the centre of the battery...

    Vape88 manual USB Passthrough and batts.

    Those passthrough's are awful :). It's too easy for that little rubber cap to slide under the casing and they have a 4-5 second cut-off. I had to completely disassemble one and remount the switch the cap is mounted higher and doesn't slide under. I got mine from Heaven's Gifts for £6 just as a...

    Cartomizer to Battery connector kr808d-1 Found

    I'm a bit confused by this so excuse me if I'm missing something obvious. The issue with 808D's isn't getting power to them, they willl happily be powered by a 901 battery/battery connector in a mod, it's airflow, 808D batteries have two small air-holes in the battery connector which obviously...

    Just for the record ..and UK modders specifically 1A Low Dropout Fixed Positive Voltage Regulator : Voltage Regulators : Maplin work pretty much perfectly as far as I can tell, thanks H8, :). 2xCR2/2x10440 are both kicking out 4.95volts (my meter is a bit old and battered so it may be 5v)...
