306 Oops!

[jperk95]

So I got my first (and only one so for) 306 atty yesterday from madvapes. This morning was one of those vaping heaven moments. Dripping juicy vapor French toast with my 306 on the Silver bullet at 6 volts got my day off to a fantastic start. So when I get home tonight, more good news. The 3.7 volt 18350 batteries for the VVV show up and i'm looking great for more vaping zen ahead. But then a little voice in my head reminds me that I heard about the silver bullet at 7.4 volts and I go for it. Only 1 problem, it appears that a 3.0 ohm 306 may not be able to handle 7.4. And here I thought the fact that I know more about vaping then everyone around me and I am working on my third month of vaping has endowed me with near mystical knowledge. But it turns out that it will be a least another week until I reach vaping Buddha status. Oh well at least this lesson is only going to cost me $7 instead of $85 for another bullet.

Well, you're way ahead of me. Bummer deal though. But imagine the nirvana next week will bring.

Once you start getting into HV and the atty's that go with it, you're best off getting a multimeter of some sort. Even a cheap one will serve you well. When you start stacking batteries you need to be careful. Make sure they're at the same voltage starting out. Also check the resistance of your atty's when you break out a new one, just to make sure it's really what it's supposed to be. Find an online Ohm's law calculator on the internet to calculate the wattage you'll be at. I find that about 10 watts burns some juices, less than 8 and I don't get enough vapor and the throat hit is weak.
