The perfect vape is elusive and rare, if you ask me. (I know, you didn't ask me)

You might save a few bucks by changing your mindset to "I'm looking for the pretty good vape."

I say this not to be a smart alec, but because I've found that so many variables are involved that can throw off your vaping experience. What gets me the most is my own taste buds. They don't perceive flavor consistently thru-out any given day. If I vape any juice for too long, it will gradually become muted and blah.

There's other factors too. Atty/carto performance, battery voltage drops, juice consistency, etc.

I now just puff because it helps me stay off analogs and if it isn't as good as it was at other times, I shrug it off. I know the really good vapes will return before long.

Thanx Mudflap, Great little pep-talk! I too have been throwing money at that elusive "perfect vape", but as you suggested, if it keeps me off of analogs, I should be happy with that.

Should rcr123s work? Do they need a sleeve or something? They don't seem to fit well.

my cr 123s didn't fit either.
I take that back. (tried the wrong batts) the 123s do fit. I got a dry burnt atty taste with a standard 510 atty, maybe I didn't push the bottle first though. My husband promised me that nothing would blow up if I tried it.

What is the purpose of this high voltage vape may I ask? I vape fine with the 18650. Also, is Rob ok with running the Grand at 6 volts? I'm sorry, i'm just weird about all of this battery stuff & don't want to ruin anything.

Also, Bowtie, my husband (never-smoker/never-vaper) likes your avatar. Even though he made my 1/4 mi Mustang & works on my street legal mustang, he swears by Chevy (puke).

didn't mean to hijack, back to your regular thread about the best battery to get the Grand to run at 6 volts

To me a 6v vape gives plumes of vapor, especially with something VG heavy. It can also change the taste of a liquid, so if you have something that doesn't taste great at 3.7v it may become usable at 6v. The opposite is also true, you may have something that is great at 3.7v but is gross at 6v.

Anyone know if there is a higher mAh rcr123 battery than 900mAh, I can't get through a full night at work with that but I prefer 6v over 3.7v.

I'm personally wondering if you can stack two of the Ultrafire ICR 123A 880mAh 3.7v batteries in a grand.

I couldn't fit two protected 16340's in my Grand. Using a ruler, each appeared to be 34-35mm tall. If the UF's you mention measure in the low 30's (millimeters), they just might fit.

They do fit in a flashlight mod I have on hand. If I ever need to execute a carto or atty, I'm prepared. :D
