Never had any problems with stackin bats other then un-even battery drain and battery life. Battery closest to the load always drains faster then the other one. I keep sets together also to even out end battery life. And swap their positions within the set also after each charge. Never had any blow up on me, and I've had plent of attys short out and switches go bad on junk mods. I always use either safe chemistry or protected bats.

You need to use extra precautions when stacking batteries. These are "safe" chemistry batteries, but can fail, so you should do exactly as stownz says. Keep pairs together, label them A & B and switch positions. Also use your multimeter every time and make sure that they are evenly charged, and don't ever over-discharge them.

Thanks and howdy. I'll try this mod. I've got a place up there outside of Hereford. I come up there all the time. I was up there three weeks ago and man did that country look bad. Dry and windy.

I already bought 3 pair 2 days ago but was wondering can I use a LR 306 atty at 6v? probably not right? Are there any Regular Resistance 306 out there that I could use if indeed I cannot use a Lr 306 at 6v?

You definitely CANNOT use an LR atty at 6v. It will burn out the atty on first fire. You should use a 3ohm or higher. Some people use a standard resistance, but it's going to be really hot.

Thanks a lot mlinky I figured if I cant use a LR 510 at 6v why would I be able to use a LR 306. Now I have to go on the hunt for a 3ohm 306 or at least standard resistance 306 thanks a bunch mlinky.

The best HV attys are usually thought to be the ones at Ikenvape. That is what I have ordered.

standard resistance attys are a tad bit hot at 6v, but the reo can do them without burning, gotta keep them wet. 3.0 ohm is the sweetspot I look for at 6 though, just perfect.

What Juice are you using and at what nic. What is the PG/VG mix. Who makes the atty you are using.

Is the atty new or used and if used for how long. Is the wick in or out and is it de-bridged.

There is a lot of factors that can produce different results in heat and flavor.

I am running a few tests and not very empresses at this point. (More latter on my results)

DIY mix, 50/50 pg/vg base 24mg nic 1%PGA. 60/40 Pg/vg base 36mg nic 1%VW. These 2 bases I keep mixed, with the addition of 1 drop or so of tobbaco extract depending if I'm just not getting the kick I need for the day. Tobacco type flavors I mix at 8%, fruit flavors I mix at 20%. Seafood or meat type flavors I mix at 0% now

Attys in rotation are cisco, iken, and smoktechs. 510s are left alone, 306s are dewicked but not debridged. Usually 3 days on an atty, then a soak in denture cleaner overnight then 3 runs in ultrasonic jewelry cleaner @ 5 mins a pop. Air dry, then dry burn till carbon is completely gone.

Hi Reonauti:)

Well. I see that finally you have found the batteries to use the mini to 6v.
I knew from long time the existence of IFR 14250, and I started using them already a few months ago, before they were sold on Innovapor
My IFR 14250 I bought directly from a Chinese factory: in fact they are different from those sold in shops. Mine are blue and have 320mAh.
if anyone is interested, here is the site where I ordered. Li-Fepo4 Battery IFR14250 - China Battery, Li-Fepo4 Battery, Lithium Battery in Battery, Storage Battery & Charger

Their price is ridiculous (about $ 1 each), but shipping costs are quite expensive.
So, here in Italy, I organized a buying group with other Reonauti, just to save on costs:D
Think about it;)

Here is a picture of my mini
