Anyone ever see a 26650 battery?

26mm diameter, 65mm length

I knew someone could do that math... I can never read those things... now I just gotta convert that to the Waffle system of measurement.

Yeah I know.. not math.. but it has numbers... bite me.

EDIT: Which also means there is no way in hell I can cram it into my GG...I dont think.

I need a measureometer.

Not going to fit. The 18650 barely fit and their only 18mm in diameter.

By the gods I will MAKE IT FIT *Hrrrrmph* *BOOM*

Seriously, you know what would make me happy?

A 3.0v battery like the 18650 that would allow me to vape carts on my Big Storm, this is all I am asking...

Or a way to take those 7.4v down a notch.

I wonder if something like this would work... Duct Tape it to the outside and splice it in?

While we're on the subject ("we" meaning me and the other voices in my head), I wonder if something like this would be worth looking into?

Theres a thread stickied in the modders forum to make your own resistor disc, but it looks like it might be a messy project. Might be worth a shot someday if I ever get motivated, but we all know what the chances of me getting motivated are.

I would think you might be able to find a spring out there with enough resistance in it to drop your loaded voltage down enough to use that bad boy waffle. Or you might be able to find atties with resistance of about 5.5 ohms that would be good for 7.4v and the two 18650s. I might have a few 510s with that kind of resistance if you are interested in trying them. I will have to search through my little storage box for em but I seem to remember getting some that were really high.

When I make the HV atties I do it because it was better to add the resistance to the atomizer and not to the GG so to drop voltage. That way we increased the watts at the same time and of course we had a much bettet battery life. It was one of my best thoughts with only advantages thats why China made them immediately after me. 5 volt is totally useless but if you want to do it waffle then try to search for germanium.

Actually I want closer to 6v off of two 3.7v batteries for cartomizers. Just because 7.4 makes them burnt. I have no real reason to go to 5v unless I wanted to use stock atties, which I used to do on my V2.

6v carts are perfect for me, I just want to be able to use my Big Storm to vape them :) And unfortunately 3.0v battery options are very limited.

as far as the 26650 goes... I was just drooling over that whopping 4000mAh

But there are still many people that prefer 5v...and I think the only reason is that for many its a stepping stone from 3.7v vaping to HV vaping. But there are mods out there for that... the GG doesn't have to be one of them, unless a resistor disc was available to let them try.

6V buddy, the best of the best with the modded carto's. Soon we will have better carto's and can vape on 7.4V, but we have to see if the taste will also be good. Get the AW 3V one's they rock!!!

How big are they?...123's ain't gonna cut it old chap.

It's all about the Big Storm, baby. And now I have to have a mod to hold those big suckers too.

It will be like a sceptre of vaping doom...

Oh yes yes yes waffleeeeee:evil:

Good man Imeo!!
Thats the spirit!

Like I said in another thread... I will make this happen if it means going back to high school to take auto-shop and learn to turn metal on a lathe myself.

Who knows? I may actually graduate at the middle of my class this time!

Is this true 5card? I know that they are expensive but they last less?

I find my AWs more reliable than my green ultrafires have been. The only problem I think is (and this may yet be my issue) is that they are hard on atties at HV.

The mAh rating is lower on most of them, but I haven't had issue one with battery life.

YMMV.

Do they have the saying in Greece, "burning the candle from both ends"?
