    18650 question

    Just wondering if the Efest IMR 18650 3500 mah batteries I was sold with a Sigelei Kaos Spectrum are acceptable to use for that mod? Allegedly these have a "max current" rating of 20A, not sure if that's a continuous discharge rating or not. The mod's manual advises using Sony/Samsung/LG 40W...

    Battery Labels Wearing Quickly

    Hello I've owned a couple of Sony VTC5's for about 2 months and been charging them with a Nitecore i2 charger. I'm having the problem that on both of the batteries the label/casing has worn away near the negative pole. I'm pretty sure it's the Nitecore charger that's responsible for this. On the...

    Sony VTC5 Safe Discharge Voltage?

    I'm wondering what voltage I can discharge this battery down to safely, either under load or without load. I have searched but can't seem to find a conclusive answer to this. I know that my mod apparently has a cut off or at 3.2V, is it OK to carry on until it gets to that voltage? I know it...

    Help choosing an 18650 battery (Sigelei 20W)

    Right I've read just about everything I think I possibly can read about batteries for now but still feel I could do with some advice before I make a decision. Basically I was going to get a Panasonic 3400mAh NCR18650B but then I realised that this is an unprotected battery, unprotected ICR I...

    Please Recommend Me an APV

    Basically I've been vaping about 3 months now and I'm down to one eGo battery again as my iTaste VV has broken. I'm a fairly heavy vaper, I go through maybe 4-5ml a day and I've found that my Spinner 1300 (the only working battery I have left) sometimes doesn't even last out the whole day. So...

    XL/XXL Cartomizers

    Before I go and order some are there any disadvantages to these other than that they are obviously bigger? Do they vape identically to standard size cartos (that are the same brand, etc)?

    Aspire BDC Vivi Nova Pyrex Degradation

    I've only owned this product for about 3 weeks. Vape wise its excellent all round but the problem I have is with the outside of the tube, as shown by the photo (sorry about image size, not sure how to reduce): As you can see the rubber finish is wearing off pretty badly at the top and its also...

    Advice and Experiences on Reducing Nic Level

    I'm looking for people's experiences at cutting down nicotine level. Primarily, is it usually best to reduce all your liquids at the same time, how fast do you usually taper, that sort of thing. One problem that I have is that I currently vape 24mg nic all the time as I was a very heavy smoker...

    Charging Query (AC adapters)

    I am just wondering about power sources for eGo chargers and batteries. I have a Spinner which is charged in the standard way via the 510 connection connected to a charger, in turn connected to an AC adapter / USB port. I also have an iTaste VV V3 which is a passthrough and as such is...

    Battery Multimeter Testing Question

    I'd like to test my eGo batteries with a multimeter to make sure they're charging correctly and that they're generally healthy. One of my batteries is an Innokin iTaste VV V3. The manual of this battery states (yes, reading instructions is a silly idea I know!): My other battery is a Spinner...

    Devices Similar to iTaste VV v3.0?

    I really like the features of this particular device (i.e. VV and VW, ohms checker, reasonable voltage and wattage range, pass through) but the battery size is making me think twice about it. I really wish they did a 1300mAh variant or even an 1100. It helps that its a pass through but I was...

    Vision Spinner Button Broken

    Yeah so I've managed to brake the button on my Spinner 1300 after only about a month by dropping it on wooden flooring, luckily I also have another one. I've tried searching on how to fix this, apparently its quite a common problem and I've seen people saying that the top is removable on the...

    Ohms and Atomizers!

    At the moment I have a pair of Vision Spinner 1300mAH batteries and iClear 16s which I got a couple of weeks ago. Firstly I'm going to be ordering some new coils for them and was wondering what resistance to get. I think my Spinners have a maximum amperage output of 2.5A from what I've read...

    Question Regarding E-liquids (Suppliers Mixing / Repackaging)

    I've recently started vaping and I bought my first ever supply of e-liquids about 10 days ago. I got a couple of bottles of Liqua and I could tell they were genuine as they had the proper official packaging and labelling, no problem so far. I ordered another couple of bottles from the same...

    Flooded Clearomizer??

    I bought an iClear 16 / Vision Spinner 1300 starter kit which I've been using for the past couple of days. One thing I've been noticing right from the start is that if I take a long hit (> about 3 seconds) I get a sort of gurgling/bubbling sound and it also starts to burn my lip. This sound also...

    Another newbie here saying hello and looking for advice! I was smoking roughly 40 roll-ups a day up until I stopped on New Year's Day. Since then I've been wearing a patch and using one of these basic e-cig kits. I've now stopped wearing the patch and am just using the e-cig which I am finding...
