    10440 bats in parallel?

    3x10440 batteries in parallel will give you 4.2 volts on a fresh charge, quickly dropping to 3.6 volts (same as your 3xAAA NiMH). It will not match your 2xCR2 on voltage, but it will outlast the CR2. You could try 2xCR123 @ 3v each if you have the space (15mm in length). You could also try...

    Lithium battery failure = boom (I'm okay)

    You got it. Please do tell us all about your CR2 mods and keep us updated about how well they work and whether or not you get a case of hotpants. Please only model protected batteries, safe switches, and a cautious outlook in tutorial threads (like my NicoStick How to thread). If you aren't one...

    Lithium battery failure = boom (I'm okay)

    To my knowledge you can still post mods with nuclear warheads for batteries if you wish, but if you are going to give step by step instructions that can be followed by a 5 year old, you should consider that a person with the common sense of a 5 year old might actually attempt that mod and you...

    Police flashlight Mod

    Hey, that would work nicely, to have your next mod body show up the same time as your protected batteries.:evil:. j/k I just thought it might be a source for some more flashlights for everyone else who wants to try it.

    Police flashlight Mod

    Very nice looking mod, balldope. You might be able to find a similar flashlight on DX, they have loads of different ones.

    Lithium battery failure = boom (I'm okay)

    CAUTION, discipline, organization, and KNOWLEDGE of the power source you are using - or use NiMH batteries that add space and weight to your mod and still require some care.

    Lithium battery failure = boom (I'm okay)

    Eskimoroll, I am glad that you are ok and that the damages were so limited. The idea of that happening anywhere near my face scares the feces outta me. I went on a brief quest for protected CR2 batteries for my Magnum mods and got distracted with the Nicostick. I haven't looked back at the...

    Gay man tries to ban e-cig sales in ny?!?!?!

    It sounds to me like he thinks he is helping someone by banning them. He REALLY thinks he is fixing something. All of his accomplishments are about improving social problems. It sounds to me like he needs a REAL PV education. He needs to come to ECF and lurk and read, read, read. He needs to see...

    now I can suck on a box too

    DW, if you put your atomizer hole at the other end of the box, you will have no trouble with anything necessary for opening and closing the box.

    Can't get a job if you are a smoker!!!

    I have been a part of a labor union, and honestly, they have to choose their battles so the cost of living raise is what they are going to fight for, not your right to nicotine consumption. The unions lose their power when their members stick their tail between their legs and cower at the...

    Can't get a job if you are a smoker!!!

    I really wish it were that easy. I could be CEO somewhere since the middle aged males in those positions are completely unwilling to say that, and I could actually pass that test.

    Can't get a job if you are a smoker!!!

    Right now, it seems employers are treating their employees - the ones they are always telling that they're looking out for them - as expendible. They are dictating to employees all kind of things, including which chemicals they can put in their bodies. The antismoking thing they are attributing...

    Do I LOOK like I have three heads???

    I forgot to answer the original question. Yes, to the "gentlemen" at RS you do look like you have 3 heads;). Since when does a female walk into a store chock full of consumer-ready electronics and ask for the DIY parts bin:shock:? Aren't ALL lithium batteries dedicated to just one device and one...

    Do I LOOK like I have three heads???

    Either of the following will work - depending on which size battery you choose to use. You can basically follow the same instructions as for the NicoStick. You will just have 3 batteries instead of 1. All your component parts would go in the battery slot farthest from the slide switch that is...

    Wellbutrin or "Zyban" User Experiences

    I tried Wellbutrin back in the late 90s. I was on it for about 4 weeks when I broke out in hives. The warmer the area of my body, the worse the hives were. I spent about a week trying every over the counter solution I could think of. The hives just kept getting worse. When it got so bad that I...

    His and Hers nicostick

    Nice lookin' mods. I love that you have ideas for the next mod too. The AAA size battery box would make a nice enclosure for a passthrough. You could put the switch and atomizer in just like you have them, and run the wires out the end where the 6" leads originally were. I have considered it...

    Poll (kinda): What would you pay for a mod?

    Wow, you are soooo preaching to the choir with those words.

    Curiously Strong Vape

    POTV, I think you should call your mod "Secret" - strong enough for a man, but made by a womyn.:D

    Curiously Strong Vape

    That's ok, ladies. I don't speak up about my gender very often because I enjoy being gender neutral. I always have been rather androgynous. I hate being condescended to because I was born female. The other women around me don't even seem to notice when it is happening to them. I see red when it...
