So true! I don't even know how many cartos and carto tanks I have, yet glad I have them just in caseExactly!I put all that in my post, because if we remember we have all of those...we each likely have many more than we think we do.
By allowing one to set the charge cut-off voltage lower than 4.2V. I'm sure there's some benefit to this. I've watched the BMS in a plug-in hybrid car that has an 8 year, 100,000 mile warranty on the battery. It's an 8.8 kWh pack consisting of 96 large-format cells in series. It considers them full at just barely over 4.0V, and empty at just under 3.6V.
Now whether than really gets one 3x the life is debatable, and I think much depends on how you define "life" and a "cycle". If you take a 3000 mAh cell and you put it through 300 complete cycles, you'll have a total energy throughput of 900 Ah. (You won't actually get that because the capacity will have dropped by some amount well before you get to the 300 cycles, but let's pretend it's so). Let's also assume that if you take that same cell and short-cycle it between 3.6V and 4.0V, you'll only get 1500 mAh of capacity in that range. (I can test this when I get back to FL). If the cell then lasts 600 of those short cycles, you've still only gotten a total energy throughput of 900 Ah, so it would really be a wash.
However, I have little doubt that not running the cell up to its full 4.2V will help out with calendar life, and it probably will increase total energy throughput somewhat, but I'm quite skeptical about the 3x claim.
510 threads and insulators will be a weak point in any atties,so always good to have more than you think you need,or if available at least some spare insulators.
Da MOOCH.
Hey rosie, might I borrow a bit of that sand, dearie?
Of course you can, katerly. Remnds me of young kids who cover their eyes so 'you can't see them'. Hahaha
We don't have too much stuff, nope.
Talk about having too much stuff-yesterday I got the two Aegis Solos I ordered over the weekend, as well as a large flavor order. My son looks at me and goes, "Just how much stuff do you have?" My response, "Hopefully enough to last longer than I do, the rest will be your inheritance to sell on the black market."
1) Insulators. Assuming you dry-burn your coils, be careful not to get things too hot during that process. Keep a wet paper towel handy to pull heat out of the deck as soon as you let go the fire button.
2) Threads on the coil screws/holes and the 510. Be careful with those threads.
.
Also if you drop one at just the right angle, from a height, and hit right between the atty and the mod, you can bend the base beyond repair. Ask me how I know this.
I've been vaping the minis for the last 3-4 years, almost exclusively, and that one is the only one that has died (well the base is dead, still good for parts).Not a kf but what a simple drop to the floor can do to a chamber. Its fixable with a bit of panel beating in this case.
Plectrum pointing to the spot that took the impact. No longer threads to the deck.
I have a lot of this type of rta, its my favourite, so its not a drama but I did order 3more when it happened and only work over a bench with a mat on the bench.....might get a mat for the floor now that I think about it

I just did an inventory. It's like a history of vaping in there! I hope I never have to use some of the really old stuff, but not pitching it just yet. I think the 2016 scare was really a good thing. I found out what supplies I really need to vape for an extended period of time. I also found a bunch of stuff I forgot I had. Kicks, 510 connections, o-rings, screws, pass-throughs, parts for my Reos. I think I'm set for mods, except more Minifits. To buy--a few more True attys, Minifit pods, and drop-in coils for the Zeniths that are coming the the mail today. And nic, to replace what I've used in the past three years. Not too bad!
The 2016 stock up was a good thing, we grabbed things that you just can't find anymore I love my old stuff stash, I fondly remember the days of carto tanks, that was the best we had at the moment. It's great to have it I learned to rebuild in 2016, so glad for that. Now I don't need much just things I want LOL so this time around it is fun and not so hectic.

Agreed! If the hammer came down today, I'd be OK. I'll be happier having more of the new things I've found, and with more nic, but I sure could make it work. I hope I never have to revert back to dripping on 510 attys, but if I do, I have enough of those, bought for pennies!
I'm going try squonking now too, I got 3 Vandy Vape squonks, mechanical, a 80 & 90 regulated. Plus that Pico squeeze I have somewhere LOL, she is hiding oh and a Reo too!
oh and a Reo too!
I think I found out about Deeming in June 2016 so it was such a mad dash and I remember so much being sold out, crazy times! It was a buying frenzy ha ha
The MiniFit pods are rebuildable. I haven't needed to do 1 yet (little sucker just keeps working well)...but it looks to be easy-peasy on several YT videos I watched. Ejuices.com CS reps told me they'll likely have another really good Sale, like the August one with up to 35% off...around Black Friday. I got my 3pack boxes of pods for $4.03 during the August sale and more MiniFits for $9.09 each then.
I'm still keeping my eye open for more good deals on the Zenith coils to post about. KangerWholesale guy told me yesterday on the phone...that the reason they quit carrying them was because they couldn't get any more in quantity. According to him, Innokin is possibly planning to come out with a new coil for the Zeniths. The current ones will still work though in the Zeniths and the Zlides.
I'd always used them, and the JoyeTech Mega Cone Shaped ones, in the past, too, for taste testing. Lately though, the cheap as dirt CoV Royal Hunter RDAs that I bought a bunch of...have been really easy to use for it instead. To me, I also get more true flavor from them. Did you get any of those?

they are, provided your daily setup is similar
for most vapers these days, the modern gear highlights different flavour notes and generally tastes very different
Rebuildable? Good to know. I just got my first Minifit from ft. Interested in any cheap sales on the pods.
