    Aspire 18650?

    When you consider the dramatically increasing number of new vapist/consumers... the majority of which don't spend much time, if any, on "enthusiast" forums where they can develop a solid sense of skepticism for subjective performance claims... and the depth in which Aspire has entered the market...

    Another caravela mod clone question: doesn't fire when screw is tightened

    Well, although you get conductivity through the threads, having a conductive washer as well (increased cross section), certainly wouldn't hurt voltage drop... although it's a bit less important at above deep sub-ohm resistances.

    Another caravela mod clone question: doesn't fire when screw is tightened

    Yes I have. A small washer to extend the negative contact closer to the battery, or lowering the switch housing shoulder (metal or plastic) to bring the battery closer to the negative contact. The latter will of course require a bit of adjustment to the 510 pin/positive contact screw set. If...

    Aspire 18650?

    The word continuous is no where to be found. They seem fond of the phrases "Super High Discharge 40A" and High Discharge Current". So... nothing for the purposes of a direct comparison.

    Rusting 24g Kanthal?

    I'd have to agree with this. High sugar contents can discolor quickly. If the wire you bought is genuine Sandvik Kanthal A-1... the process of it "rusting" or otherwise corroding can take weeks, even months. There is an alumina layer (aluminum oxide) that develops on the wire surface when...

    Aspire 18650?

    Looks like Aspire has gotten into the 18650 battery game... time will tell.

    kangertech temp coils

    The Ohm's law wattage parity for 0.15Ω at 4.2V is 118 watts, 28 amps. If you have an APV that can exceed the above wattage value... you can "force" additional wattage beyond the OL value. This may be done to offset the added mass/surface area of a wire gauge that would not be optimal with a...

    RDA A BF RDA I'd like to see more of

    One of the more "no muss - no fuss" ways to convert to a BF is with a Fat Daddy Vapes conversion kit for $7. Scroll down about 1/3 the way. There's a link to a conversion video as well.

    RDA A BF RDA I'd like to see more of

    The DotMod Petri has a neat two post design, along the lines of what you're looking for... but doesn't have a bottom feeder center post. In fact, with that insulator covering the deck, it's hard to say what's going on. You can presume that one of the deck posts has a threaded offset under the...

    Subtank rba help

    27 watts is the Ohm's law parity value for 0.6Ω, however, that doesn't take into account wire gauge or number of coils in parallel. Too thin a wire, and the coil radiant heat will be too high, too thick and it will be a cool vape. I'm guessing you're using too thin a wire for the wattage, and...

    18650 battery health question.

    The rDNA 40 has a minimum 3.1V operating battery input voltage. Below that, it won't deliver full set wattage, and the "weak battery" warning will flash a few times after the draw.

    Na... doesn't sound bad, Ed. The ignore, forum, thread and of course the old ignore member features save a lot of time and aggravation.

    Absolutely identical resistance in multi-coil atomizers

    After I responded to an interesting thread found here... I started thinking about the (highly unlikely) chances of truly identical multi-coil builds - considering how atomizers are made and the individual components that go to make up the whole - where heating lag time from coil to coil is...

    I found it! Your "full screen" comment gave me a thought, so I zoomed out 3 clicks, and by George... there it is! Thanks for the efforts and patience, retired. All is well in Fluxland again.
