    While Waiting for my EQ- VV Bottom Feeder alternatives

    The Provari limits the output around 10W - the E2 is when you exceed the internal capability of the provari to boost the voltage and provide the current you need to drive the atty at the voltage you set- i believe the Buzz does this when you overload the booster, but doesn't necessarily tell you...

    While Waiting for my EQ- VV Bottom Feeder alternatives

    you mean the current limit? Are you sure you just aren't dialing up the voltage a bit too high with your thumb?

    While Waiting for my EQ- VV Bottom Feeder alternatives

    That is cool- really looking forward to hearing your feedback. Glad you put it between your phid and your ProVari. Not as big as I thought it was going to be.

    Hey! Where have you been? I just cleaned up my office and found an envelope with an atty inside and your name and address on the return ... never did get around to opening it up- I swear its sitting on my desk right in front of me... you took some cruise and never came back :-) Still want to...

    New Batteries coming soon - ProVari Power 2500

    Fair question- data comming from two places- First- my own use since November 2010 - voltages measured on the ProVari which are lightly loaded but not at 2.5A, and not continuous. Second- see tests being run by forcedfuel50 and related discussion on another thread. Important to note- the...

    AW Batteries & Pila Chargers at Super T ~Great Prices Super Selection!

    I know you know this but.... The cell sizes on the label reflect the size of the internal cell. AW, Redilast, XXXXFire use internal cells manufactured by the likes of samsung, panasonic, LG, etc....and then add wrappers, pcbs, button tops etc ....

    ProVari Variable Voltage Mod

    I get them occasionally- it basically means "other problem" - change your battery out, check your atty and if you keep getting them, shoot a message to provape.

    Welcome back to the rest of the world Mario!. I'm going to have to take care of you. I ordered an extra kit from both the Scubagen V3 and the Genisis (off the Kronos co-op)....will let you know when they come in.

    AW Batteries & Pila Chargers at Super T ~Great Prices Super Selection!

    @ greeney- I agree with your conclusions- for the same reasons IMR has benefits over LiCo in general with VV scenarios. I said in general because in many ways its overkill.... The AW2600 is rated at 2C, it can crank up to 5.2A continuously- (2.6Ah x 2C = 5.2A) The AW IMR is rated at 10C...

    New Batteries coming soon - ProVari Power 2500

    not exactly- the IMR's stay above 3.6v for a majority of the cycle before dropping off rapidly. So they require less boost over the course of thier cycle as a percentage of time. The Protected batteries happen to cross over the IMR curve at 3.6V but continue to slope down so a good part of the...

    Looks like you got yourself a CBA :-) Thanks for posting the graphs... I've been struggling with the idea of buying one to do similar tests.... RE Variable voltage devices- that's going to vary on a number of things depending on the user setting, the load, the efficiency of the regulator at...

    New Batteries coming soon - ProVari Power 2500

    Update- still averaging 7-8ml of juice per battery with the new 2500's compared to around 4ml with the IMRs.

    New Batteries coming soon - ProVari Power 2500

    How are you defining performance? I agree 100% with better run time, but there is a safety factor when using IMRs (IMRs being inherintly safer) that you can't dismiss.

    While Waiting for my EQ- VV Bottom Feeder alternatives

    I'm loving my 2500's on the pro-vari - went away for 5 days with 4 batterys (one was half run down) and still had 1 fully charged when I got home. What a pleasure to not lug a charger. Waiting for the Genisis LV and Scubagen V3s to come in, and hoping for Fono to come up with a solution to...

    ProVari Variable Voltage Mod

    You may want to look into an 801-510 tip adapter- it'll probably restrict the draw a bit and offer a smaller tip.

    New Batteries coming soon - ProVari Power 2500

    I'm using both the Pila and the Tenergy TR-001 with the 2500mAh batteries with no issues- I need to do some more testing and it's going to take a long time to get meaningful results, but I have a bit of evidence of longer run times off the Tenergy.
