Hey guys, I have a question on tube mods the one sans the fancy display and such. When discharging battery in a Bolt type device how to tell when it has no charge, using a protected battery here ICR 18650 3.7 with a Vivi Nova 1.6ohm. Will I over discharge it if I continue to use until it does not work, by that I mean produces no vapor? Should I just be looking for a drop in the amount of vapor production? I am not using a kick or anything similar to keep a constant voltage. I've read a lot about horror stories with battery accidents and I just would like to stay far away from an such accident. Also I have ordered AW IMR's and 2 cents vape Safe for primary usage when they arrive.



Thanks for the help guys!

You will be able to notice a drop off in performance once your battery gets low. I can always tell when my reo or my SB needs a battery change! If you have another mod and it can test battery life left just pop it in there occasionally and test. I do that with my OLD lavatube I don't use anymore. There is also a way you can test your battery life with a multimeter, search around in the battery section to find out what setting to put the meter at. I believe its the lowest setting in the Volts section, but don't quote me ;)
