Things change over time, and different shops will choose to call things differently, but this is from the Boge page of a pretty widely used vendor "510 2.5 Ohm - Standard resistance. Not too hot, not too cold. Good all around vape." They call their 510 Boge 3 ohm "cooler vape", analogous to 808 vendors having around 3.3 - 3.4 ohms as their cooler versions. Anyhow, at 4 - 5 ml, you're getting about 50% more than I had with the UF batteries that I first used with the BP; that's why I was glad to get a pair of Powerizers :)

Oh, Mark, I wasn't criticizing your numbers at all. You've been only helpful to me with lots of great info. It seems that one thing you can always count on in the vaping world is inconsistencies from vendor to vendor, batch to batch, day to day. This carto was the one that came with my tank as a Boge sr. I have decided that I am happy with my Powerizers. :) Perhaps I underestimated how much juice I go.

I didn't take any of your posts as being critical in any way :) Battery consistency is a toughie in PV land. I'm glad that when a problem arose with the latest batch of UF, Mike came up with a test methodology that can be replicated, real numbers. For myself, I relied on knowing my run time (consistent ml used on three different pairs of batteries) with the Infinity, which set my personal target. Given the Powerizers are coming out solid, there will still be some variability, but at least you can know that you are seeing a lot better use time than the weaker batteries.

For me I actually use one 6 ml bottle for months at a time, brew a 60ml batch of my go-to blend every 10 days. My liquid-only cost is all of $12/month (gotta love DIY :D )

My woody Buzz Pro is 23.5 mm in diameter Moo . If you go 25mm there should be no problem IMO

Thank you Sir Buzz, That sounds good, I do want to go a tad bit loose as I do not want to wear the finish! I am so sad to see him put ths in a case, but I guess it is better then ruining the veneer!

I'd love to see a pic of the holster when you get it!

You can see the holsters I got for my other two Buzz's here http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/notcigs/215864-leather-holsters-buzz-pro.html#post3923383 Griff even threw in an extra one with a lanyard because I asked about them.

I got such an incredible run time on my first run on those batteries. I was vaping less juice per day (around 3ml) with a 3.2 (tested before I started) at about 4.8 volts. I haven't had a second run until now (I gave my mom the original set as she was going on a two week trip that included a bunch of long driving) Finally got the batteries I ordered to replace the ones I gave my mom, charged them and put them in yesterday. I think I vaped less then usual yesterday, but they are still going today.

If you find a vendor liquid that really works for you, that's what matters. I think the last stuff I bought was some 24 mg Wyatt Earp late last year. I still have some, need to pass it along.
Coincidentally, I do to (bought it late Nov). I can't vape the stuff anymore and I have about 70ml left. lol

I wasn't trying to be a "nickname for Richard" either. I just thought that was how Boge classified them. I was actually surprised that they didn't have a 2.5Ω-ish when I was at the store. That's always what I considered "standard".

I'm taking the Powerizers off the charger in about a half hour and puttin' 'em to the test. :)

Those are really nice! I'm surprised that the BP doesn't pop out of them. I'm going to design something for mine, just not quite sure yet which direction to go. I have some leather scraps and tons of other stuff(used to be a seamstress) for materials.

I'm on my 2nd batt run. I can only use my BP becasue they are Christmas gifts for Hubby and I, so I am writing down my hours and juice usage. I just want to make sure there's no bugs to work out, because by Christmas most of my warranty will be gone.

Do you take the batts out at night or leave them in?

I leave them in until they die and then replace them with the ones that have been on the charger since they died!

Are you still hiding that BP from the hubby? Theres got to be a way you can use it and not ruin his surprise. Lying is OK in a mariage ONLY under two circumstances, if you are hiding a gift or a surprise party. Years ago I threw a surprise 25th Birthday party for the husband and I turned into a pathological lier for about two weeks before. I was picking people up from the airport and hiding them in hotels, going to my grandmothers to cook and telling him I was working, it was just one lie after the other.

Tell him you won it in a contest and there are none in stock. That way you can use it and he won't suspect what his christmas present is.

Good idea! I'm right with you. I like the contest idea...

If I break out miy Buzz Pro Woody, then I have to decide for sure which one IS mine and which one will be his Christmas gift. I haven't decided which one to give him. I am growing attached to both of them. One's bird's eye maple, and the other is mappa burl. At first I thought the darker one for him, more manly, but he really likes bird's eye maple, too. Maybe I'll just give him one of them as an "I love you" gift.
