    Cheap, ready to go variable voltage modules..

    I was looking at ebay, and noticed an abundance of cheap, ready-made variable voltage modules from china.. I was wondering if anyone has looked into using one in a mod? A good majority of them support up to around 15-18 watts with 3A max... just curious, beacuse with the prices I'm seeing, they...

    I just purchased a 50ml bottle of Dekang DK-TAB.. I've had this stuff before and I love it. The bottle i got today... it's a blank white bottle and it says "dktab, 24mg, with PEG" Now... I believe PEG is Polyethylene Glycol.. as opposed to the normal PG.. whic his propolyene glycol...

    Dekang E-liquid uses PEG not PG?

    Looks like this was just a mix-up of labeling.. the juice did not actually contain PEG, was just a sticker. Thanks again Hoog for the quick update. Here's his answer, his post is on the 2nd page.

    Great places for mixing and bottling supplies!

    I've found a couple of links that have been very helpful in my DIY adventure... these two vendors aren't e-cig related at all but they sell science supplies and bottles.. but they have excellent prices and are great places to look if you need bottles or mixing equipment. Just to note I found...

    14650 E-Power + LR/Dual Coil

    So, I love my e-power.. but the stock 14650 battery has trouble providing enough current for dual coils or even really low resistance cartos/attys (1.8) The performance loss was so bad, I resorted to using a home-made spacer and AW IMR 14500 batteries... this worked but capacity was severely...

    Beware Trustfire Flame jacket batteries

    This post isn't meant to slam anyone. I have total respect for CoV and I'm sure Bruce had NO IDEA this was going on. *Bruce at clouds of vapor has corrected the problem, and pulled all of these batteries from sale. He has offered a refund to anyone who purchased such batteries. See thread for...

    TrustFire 14500 not fitting?

    I have a question for ya'll... I just received a boxmod, very excited.. I go to put in my trustfire 14500s (Flame jacket) and they won't fit! I feel like I'm going to break either the mod or the battery trying to force them in there.. they just aren't fitting. Is this common or is...

I ran across this excellent little post over on the candlepowered forums (It's amazing to me how closely related the PV modding and Flashlight modding communities are....) The post was about using a hobby charger to...

    Evercool question

    I have a question regarding a mod using the evercool switching regulator (ptr08100w). The specs say the dropout voltage is 4.5v, so using batteries in a series this is way below the 'safe' area. My question is to anyone using an evercool mod, how do you tell when your batteries are...

    An interesting idea.. idea of dual coil cartos...

    What if you were to make a mod with dual 510 connections, side by side... then make an attachment that slips into both cartos like a driptip, to combine into 1 mouthpiece. I know it would require a massive amount of power behind it (2x18650p?) but you could 'roll your own' dual coil...

    Battery question to experts.. I'm so confused here

    I purchased a VV boxmod.. it's on the way It uses 2x 14500 batteries.. i'm guessing they're wired in a series to provide 7.4v and then it's just regulated down through a LDO, excess voltage passed off as heat.. Here's where I get confused.. Since the batteries are wired in a series, the 14500s...

    Newbie question.. to the modders

    So, I'm purchasing a home-made VV boxmod.. my question is this How do you monitor the state of the battery to ensure you do not over discharge it? I know the protection circuit should kick in and protect it.. but usually with a regular boxmod the voltage drop-off from the battery discharging...
