17670 on the Grand???

[franklyspeaking]

Would a 17670 battery fit in the grand? Are there any issues using this battery if it does fit?

I've got some laying around and just wanted to know if it were alright to use them in a pinch.

It looks like it should fit.....

No clue if it fits, but since the mod is all mechanical if it fits it will work. Not a good idea to use spacers, magnets etc.

in his tutorial video for the mini, Robert uses a spacer.

He stopped including them. They also aren't recommended for use with all battery types.. everyone's free to do as they please though!

I did not know he stopped including them. My mini is on the way and has not arrived yet. good information to have so I didn't call Robert thinking something was missing.

Yep no spacers and no atty. Rob wasn't happy with the atties he was gifting, apparently they weren't that great so he stopped including them. Plus everyone prefers a different atty lol

We get the mod, an extra bottle, some noalox, a piece of reducer tubing, a drip tip and a biz card.

I got egg rolls with my Reo. I guess Rob likes me more than you guys.

I guessin the 17670 would be way to long..Some 18650's are a tight squeeze and hard on the spring.

LOL if they weren't pizza rolls you got screwed.

Some of my 17670 batteries fit the grand better than some of my 18650's.I have used a 17670 battery in my grand for almost 18hrs. of steady vaping before changing batts.Gotta luv 2 days of hassle free vape!

Those tutorials are out of date now....and Robert is going to replace them with new tutorials...just needed to catch up to get the time to do it.

Good info folks, thanks.

I didn't get a drip tip with my grand so I think those got struck along with the atty.

 

[Hoppyy]

hmmmm 17 hrs definitely DO not use them! I hear it could cause an explosion. Send them to me, I have a crash/crush proof Grand. I'll try them and tell you if it still occurring.

Okay I've had the 17670 batts in the grand for most of the week and actually prefer them to the IMR 18650 batts. The 17670s don't last longer really but seem to be very consistent throughout their charge life. They are black too so they match my Grand.

Overall I'm real happy using them over my 18650s. Just thought I'd share the info....

Could you post a photo of them in the Grand just so we can see how they fit.

 

[franklyspeaking]

Here you go.

Here you go.

Thanks ......

Waiting for Techno to chime in tbh..

I prefer the Black AW 2200 mah button top in my Grand ... Probably pretty similar I would think.

Like I said before I feel the IMR die out sooner and they are so short it makes the button "spongey"

I have 4 IMRs for Mr Woodvil and 6 Black 2200 AWs for the Grand ..... I'm set for a while.

And your right, the black do look good in a black Grand ...... I always turn the label so all i see is black peeking out the squonk hole from any angle
