Big battery PV's

[Pengu]

So the only pv i hv e right now is the Nebula(friggin sweet btw),

but im looking to step it up a bit now and move to a 3.7v or 5v pv
altho im not to sure wich one to get, are they all basically the same thing, with different looks? or are there actually noticable diferences between the vairous kinds out there?

and what would you recomend for me, lookin to spend around 70-100 dollars, want somthing that is going to last for an 8 hr shift(or come close to lasting the whole shift), produces a good amount of vapor, but.......not a harsh throat hit, and maybe have an led on it.. doesnt have to but it would be cool to have i think
Thanks

I think you are going to have to get one of the kitchen table brands for that price..... I think there is a Detonator for 50 bucks...... And a couple of others for about the same.....
I got a Silver Bullet 3.7 and 6.0 for 114.00 dollars, I think...... I got a GG Transformer through a 3rd party for 170.00 Dollars...... And am now getting a GLV 5.0 for 128.00 dollars, I think......
Don't know if it is always true, but my momma told me, "You get what you pay for " when I was a kid..... I usually find that phrase to be true......
So far, I paid the most for my GG and I love my GG..... From what I know, the GG is the best E-Cig on the market...... My batteries last for 2 days and can fill the liquid every few hours, instead of every 10 puffs.....
But I know somebody that got a mod for 50 Bucks and swears by it......

There are differences galore, yes.

If I may suggest something before you spend your money. I'm not familiar with the Nebula so I'm hoping somebody will jump in the thread who has one, but... many PVs have the option of using a PT (pass-thru). These are inexpensive and something you may eventually want anyway. I would suggest that you buy a PT and see if you like vaping at the 5 volts that your USB port provides. Then you can make a more intelligent PV purchasing decision. If you're not crazy about throat hit, you may not care for 5 volts.

Good luck.

Definitely get yourself a USB pass-thru. You can vape at 5v for ~$20 vs the $100+ for a big batt mod and save yourself the hassle of charging batteries while you are at the computer.

If you are handy with a soldering iron you can always build your own PT ans big battery mod... - I'm in the process of building one of each for myself.

For $80 including shipping, you could buy a Chuck. Batteries last between 2 and 4 days depending on how much you vape. Link is in my sig if you'd like to take a look.

Check out the DSE-905 similar to the Screw Driver but half the price.
Google DSE-905 for more retailers.

If youre gonna do it go with 5v. the sweet spot.

Richie G and $igmund, a USB passthrough is 5v in but it is NOT 5v out. It's 3.6v.

I suppose it depends on the PT, Houdini. I measured the output of my 801 PT at 5.1 v.

 

[Houdini]

Weird. I just measured an auto 801 and a 401 and they are 3.5 and 3.6.

What is the nebula operating voltage?

i think an easy 5vDc mod would be a pass-thru on the right usb wall plug...i just made one out of a nerf 901 batt connector and a dead battery for the led and the body of a car cig ligter plug. the led worked for a day and got dim then i let the smoke out of it ( it blew, with real smoke ) still works but got to put a real led and reister<sp>. i dvm`ed the output was 5.01vDc with the atty red hot (did the cashsmere`s thing with extra wire, and a pain to do) the little circut board had both led and reis. but it was from a 510 verses batt with black lite led. i should have waited, that black lite was cool.
i just did it for use in the car, i use a SD 901/801/510 at 3.7vDc at home, the PT in the car and SD or 510 when i`m out and about.

sorry if off topic, just wonder what the Nebula battery is rated at?

 

[Pengu]

Boxhead, I have no clue what the nebula batterie is rated at lol
still a noob, but I got it from Vapornine.com

and thanks everyone for the responses so far, a just saw a thread about the
vp2 I think it was called? Is that a good one?

 

[boxhead]

ah ok. i did not see it on the site, i think it is 3.7vDc.
thanks Pengu.

 

[Pengu]

Oh and thanks for linking the dse905 YoMike,
I think I might end up getting that one
