    Strange DNA30 battery level behavior... anyone seen this?

    If you look at the specs for the DNA30 you'll note it has a voltage range of 4V-8.3V. Looking at your numbers, .7Ω/17W, we see 3.45V. It is below the threshold that is needed to actually regulate. You are now in bypass mode so basically it is functioning like a mech, just running straight off...

    Voltage, Amps, Watts, Etc...

    True IMRs can do much more that 10A. From Mr AW's sales thread. 15C means the 18490 can handle 16.5A and the 18650 a whopping 24A Max continuous discharge rate.

    Thread to show off PV Mods?

    I was wondering if noobs ever think to spend a few minutes actually exploring the rich and varied content on ECF. :facepalm:

    batteries

    I would disagree. If you dead short one of your AW IMRs you better hope something gives to break the connection. Those things get awful hot. A protected battery on the other hand offers 3 levels of safety. The PCM prevents over discharge, over charging and in the event of a dead short it...

    That may just be the manufacturer of the DNA boards.

    Building My First Mod

    Enough with the fear mongering. If you had spent any time in the Modding Forum you'll see that folks have been stacking batteries in series to build regulated mods since 2009. Many of these mods were built by folks who didn't even own a meter. Then there are the myriad of retailers that later...

    16340 mods?

    My advice would be to avoid 16340/CRC123s. Just not enough there. Unless you are a 2ml/day vaper.

    Modder's Toolkit

    I always use the easier to work with leaded solder. A good rosin or RMA (Rosin Mildly Activated) based flux makes things easier too.

    WIP DNA20 Compact 18650 Mod

    Misunderstood my question. As an example the Vamo quits when the battery drains down to ~3.2V. The Young June LT, I believe, quit at ~3.6V left on the battery.

    WIP DNA20 Compact 18650 Mod

    I guess if ya need the shorter length. That said Brandon first demonstrated the DNA20 with the 10A Panasonic. If you think 10A isn't enough Samsung makes a great high drain 20A, 2000mAh INR. That's a 10A continuous test, it would not let me post a higher drain cuz of the Pana's 10A...

    How to wire the DNA charger WITHOUT DNA 12/20

    Get some thinner wire to work with. I don't how you managed at all with all the thick solid core you were using. The charger isn't moving much current. You should have something laying around with some thin, flexible, stranded wire. Old DC power supply/wall warts, phone charger etc.

    5 volts with one battery - Which do I use?

    That space = a 14500 or 18500. An 18500 should provide decent performance. You could also try 3 of these in the 3 AAA carrier as it stands. Bpi 4 x NiZn Ni ZN 1.6V 1000mAh AAA Rechargeable Battery AA AAA Charger | eBay How reliable they are over the long haul is questionable (mine are...

    Difference between ICR and IMR batteries

    I'm confused, isn't this your post? Is this problem only with your "Terminator built at 1.6 ohms"? Someone will soon explain the 'ICR' thing, but note battery labelling is rather fluid. As an example Samsung makes a few ICRXXXXXXX batteries. depending on which ICR they can be NCM/LCO...

    You are talking about Smok and Boge cartos, two of the biggest and most sold ecig products.

    Stress on IMR Battery Question

    Book knowledge? LOL You seem to have a hard time understanding actual empirical data based on real tests. It's comforting to ignore actual tests while relying on this? Good luck :facepalm:

    Recommend me an RBA?

    So you missed the other fear mongering posts about the dangers of SS wicks and the chromium oxides that form on them? As far as silica have you ever looked inside Cisco type atties?

    Why do many people seem to favor low-ohm coils?

    You don't 'factor in' the voltage drop you need to measure it under load. No one vapes at 4.2V with a battery, so those figures are meaningless
