Building to the battery and the bottle.

[HecticEnergy]

Anyone else finding themselves wiring their build so the battery needs to be changed when the bottle of juice is empty?
I have a Reo grand LP and have found building about a 1.6 or so with 28ga single coil is nice and responsive with the heat up time and sips the juice so after I kill 6mls I'm about at 3.7v left on the battery. I find it convenient to use my juice bottle as a battery gauge, it also is nice I can swap juice bottles and batteries at the same time.
Just wondering if anyone else does this or if this is yet another way I'm a freak

Wow - spot the geek (just ribbin' ya, Hectic. Love ya.)

I haven't purpose built to accomplish this but I have noticed that I've reached a juice/battery maintenance equilibrium. No matter if single, single twisted, or duals, the juice-to-battery consumption is pretty much about the same. For example, duals drain the bat faster, but also consume more juice during a charge, so I end up needing to fill up and recharge in about the same ratio. Less time, but same ratio.

I usually run duals at about .6. I also use the juice bottle as a guage, i just change my batt at half a bottle instead of a full one

<--- Geek! lol (and a well paid one at that! hehe)

What gauge wire & ohms do you prefer for your coils, or is it all over the place? I noticed 24 gauge at .3 dual coils kills the battery much faster than the juice... 1.2-1.6 seems to kill the bottle at the same time as the juice - 28ga is nice and responsive at that ohm level - dual coils fall between .6 and .8 - atomizing more juice and burning through batteries faster, but again, the level seems to be about the same (battery dead when the bottles about empty)

I use 28g in mine and I'll second Fish cakes, dual coils 0.6 ohms. At about a half bottle I need to change the battery. So I have to replace batteries 4 times a day and the juice bottle once. I always have to fill an empty bottle when I wake up. Then by night, the second bottle is close to empty.

I recently went from a 1.6 ohm to a .6 ohm build (RM2 to Odin). I find slightly more juice consumption at .6, but what I do is: Change battery AND juice in the morning. When I was vaping at 1.6, I could sometimes go almost 2 days on 6ml of juice (about 3 per day), now I'm using about 4 per day.

However by using a fresh bottle of juice and fresh battery first thing in the morning, I'm good for 24 hours, even if there's juice left in the bottle. Doing it that way, I never drop below 3.8-3.9 volts on the battery. (AW IMR 2200's)

(dbrandt01, I found I could get a full day even using 1600 mAH batteries, but I'm not a chain vaper)

If I vaped less I could see that. I have 3 online college courses so I find on days I'm doing class work I vape a ton more just relaxing to vape and do this boring school work.

Single coil 1.2 ohm 28g. When my bottle gets to about 1/3 left it's time to refill and swap out batteries.

I only use Odins, dual 28g 0.5Ω. When the bottle is empty it's time to change the battery (battery is right around 3.7v when the bottle needs refilling)

That's just waaaay too OCD for me.

i fill when the batt is changed too, even if it is not empty. it also saves the last ml or so of slow squonking for me since it is generally fuller

I don't fill my bottle all the way. I've found that I get about 4.2ml before my AW batteries drop below 3.7v, so that's what I put in the bottle. I like to fill and change batteries at the same time. My usual builds are around .4 to .45 ohms.

I build so that I get the flavor profile I want and change the battery when the flavor and vapor production drops off. Usually this is around half a bottle for me.

 

[Filthy-Beast]

Same here, I build for the vape I want then figure out juice to battery ratio. so that I know when to change batteries based on juice usage.

I can tell by the hit when my battery is 8.0 or less and just swap out it out for a fresh one.
