Decided it's not worth it...

No need; it's already been done too many times. Here, from over a year ago: A PBusardo Review : Boge 510 LR Carto Vs. Smok Tech 510 LR Dual Coil Mega Carto - YouTube He slid the glass mesh up to reveal the coils, but you can see both plainly there in the space of 20 seconds, on both the Boge...

sigh I hate to take this further off-topic, and I am interested in the Twist, but I have to chime in briefly. The coil on any modern polyester batting cartomizer is completely wrapped in a piece of glass mesh cloth. It's very apparent in donnah's photos. It does not burn from common coil...

Take a look here: SerenityGear Leather

Agreed with everyone else: avoid dual-coil cartos unless you have some specific reason to use them, because they will greatly shorten battery life as a result of requiring higher voltage to attain the same wattage at two coils instead of one. I have a theory that SmokTech came up with...

This one looks pretty good as a match: Aluminum Drip Shield (Silver) [GJADS-SVR] - $9.99 : Probably the same one for cheaper here: Anodized Aluminum Drip Shield

Great to know it's as US-made as possible. :)

I was curious, so I had to check: The Lavatube sub-forum of the VV mods forum has 249 threads with 4836 posts. The Provari sub-forum has 309 threads with 4692 posts. Not a huge difference for the sub-forums dedicated to both mods -- and a lot of the Provari posts end up on the Provape...

I know you don't like the Provari, but the exact equations you're looking for are outlined in the Provari FAQ, in the section entitled "Why does the ProVari need to use high drain batteries (the full technical answer)?": http://www.provape.com/v/faq.htm If you read it, just be aware that they...

Why oh why do they have to keep the same dated design, with the same clear plastic switch that looks ultra-cheap and makes it look like every other eGo/Riva/whatever battery? Make it a little more expensive and use some quality materials on the switch and you'd have me sold. Make it in...

I too looked at this mod before buying the Provari. Several people on ECF told me to avoid it like the plague, but I could never get a concrete reason why -- although now that stacked-battery mods are being talked about quite a bit more, that was probably the reason. I went with the more solid...

Hmm...I didn't crucify you in any discernible way; I simply asked you a few questions. I just feel that if you are going to make claims that you've done thorough testing of the device, and basically evangelize for it on a public forum, it might be nice to see your empirical evidence. I...

Read the Provari FAQ: http://www.provape.com/v/faq.htm In particular, the section titled "Why does the ProVari need to use high drain batteries (the full technical answer)?" You are simply limited in the amount of amperage you can pull from the battery. Your last sentence is correct: you're...

Why not share the numbers with all of us? ECF is full of potential customers, after all. Again, if you're not doing this for any monetary gain, what would be the harm releasing the data? Is there an NDA in effect? I assumed you worked for a vendor, or were one yourself. Usually...

What are you doing with the results of your testing? Sending them back to China, or are you doing your own review, or planning on selling them? I'd definitely be curious to see the data you recorded from the chrome unit you have, and any data you get from the black model "going thru the...

No, I don't own one. I was basing that on the way the caps look on Pbusardo's review. They look like they barely go into the tank, which is nice for juice capacity, but not nice for holding onto the tank well. The stainless J-tank's caps don't go in that far either, but they hold extremely...

I probably should have boiled it down a bit at the end. In a strictly mechanical mod without a boost converter, using a higher-resistance coil requires less amperage draw from the battery than using a lower-resistance coil to achieve the same wattage at the coil. You can check the math using...

Their RY4 tastes like BWB Maple Tobacco -- yuck. Icky-sweet and smells up the entire room. It got such great reviews and I love RY4-type juices, so I bought 30ml. I suppose I'll get through it since I spent the money on it, but I won't be re-ordering.

I didn't think you'd want a whole thesis from me on PWM, so I linked to the relevant article. I tend to write long, wordy posts and I'm trying to get away from that as I'm usually at work when posting here (although it's my own business, so who's going to yell?). That said, I just wrote a long...

This might get complicated. :) In your examples: 4.7V * 4.7V / 2.2 ohms = 10.04 watts. Amperage draw would be 2.21 amps on a mechanical mod (no boost circuit). 5.5V * 5.5V / 3 ohms = 10.08 watts Amperage draw = 1.83 amps, again on a strictly mechanical mod (disregarding the fact that...
