3.7v difference

[Torvus74]

ok another newb question,

is there a difference in flavor or throat hit between a stock 3.7 battery and a 3.7 mod?

Not really a difference. The 3.7 mod allows you to be vaping on the same battery several hours later. Mine lasts all day.

The mod would only allow you to vape longer before changing batteries.

that's what I assumed. it just seems people get a lot more vapor and such in the mod review vids, thanks for the answers.

There's another factor - newly charged the 3.7v - any batt will be the same - depend on the atty resistance too - but say in a 510 whether you have a regular batt, a mega or a mod with a 14500 - same initial vaping experience. But the more the mAh on the batts, the longer that initial charge will hold top voltage which is almost 4.2V. All will eventually come down the curve to where they need recharging, but the more mAh, the longer that intial voltage is held - that makes for a big difference in vaping experience that goes beyond the actual length of time the battery lasts. It is a major factor on the Bartleby and Protege with the 14500 batt. (it would be the same on any 3.7v mod) I cannot emphasize that enough.

IME,the factory battery has a regulator to keep the 3.7 volts from the beginning,my mod (home made) stars from 4.2 V and stop working close to 2.7 V.

Nice to see you KC

Batteries give up their amperage at different rates. Not talking about mAh here but how fast a battery can give up an amp.

Assuming larger batteries have the ability have to give up an amp faster the atty would get up to temperature faster giving a larger amount of vapor while the smaller battery was still getting the atty up to temp. So there could be a difference.

This is why a UPS can't just use any gel cell but has to have one that gives up its amps faster.

Now this could all be a load of baloney. I only have stock batteries and 4.8v. I haven't actually studied the type batteries the mods use and I don't have one to test. The specs on these things are dismal.

Anybody got both to test with? Do a real short hit and see if there is a difference.

Nobody will ever be able to convince me that my 3.7V Chuck does not produce much better flavor and way more vapor than my stock 510 batteries.

Rather than editing my post, I'll just say here, that I agree as far as the 14500 batts on the Bartleby and Protege go. Something else is happening other than initial peak voltage and that liscab might have something there.
