Battery Help

[wigglr]

Hey all, I am looking into the Reo Grand, but I am a bit confused about how to get certain V's with batteries.
For example, if I am looking to achieve 6V, what batteries should I use?

TIA,
Richard

Like these... Amazon.com: Kits: 6 RCR123A 3.0V 750mAh LiFePO4 Rechargeable Batteries with a Smart Charger: Camera & Photo

Or these.... AW LiFePO4 RCR 123

Some folks even use 2x 3.7v protected rcr123's for 7.4v....
There are also some 5v batts avaliable (THESE rquire special chargers avilable at these same venodors. MV has their's on order and this first vendors batts and charger for them is also on order..)here...http://www.electronicstix.com/-MODS...IMH-600mAh-Battery-for-The-Meglodon-p405.html

Wow thank you both so much for your help! Is it possible to use 18650 for 6V vaping on the grand?

BTW gratz, could you use those on the Pila charger or a trustfire-001 charger?

18650 is a 3.7v batt. It only holds one of those...so no I guess is the answer to that question.

Which batteries are you referring to charging on those charger's?

If your asking about these batteries and the chargers you specified...NO. You can charge them on a UltraFire WF188 like this one. It has a selector switch on the side for 3.0-3.2/and 3.7v Ultrafire WF-188 Lithium Battery Charger

Or...the Tenergy charger that is in the batt/kit that I linked in my second post above...like these.. http://www.google.com/#q=tenergy+3....87&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.&fp=fe05572eb6839511

That was very helpful. And very clear (which I needed as I am inept at certain things)

I don't have a grand "yet", but what do you guys think of this battery in place of the regular 18650

see link 4.8 Volt NiMH Battery Cell

It works great .... though the battery life is pretty short.
I have two of them and six more on the way
It does take a special charger though And the charge time is very long. It takes me a couple hours for the light to turn green then they recommend 4-5 hours longer. So I wind up charging 6-7 hours and they only last 3-4 hours for me vape time.

So they are good to have around, but I will always have 18650s on hand for the full day of vape on one battery.

Thanks for the info. That's good to know. The only reason I don't have an 18650 mod is the charge time, but when I did have one I was using a crappy charger too; that made it real bad.

I have 10 - 18650 batts so charge time doesn't matter, there is always fresh one waiting

I'm debating getting a Grand or a Mini. I've become partial to 4.5-5 volts, though. Is that possible on a Mini, or only a Grand?

Only on the Grand or Woodvil with the 5 volt NiMH batteries from electronicstix.com or madvapes.com.

A Grand it is, then. Thank you!!
