can someone explain how the sb with 2 - 3volt cr123 batteries,that are putting out 3.6volts when charged,how the sb puts out 6volts,wouldnt it be 7.2 volts,or maybe it drops under load ,im just not sure how that works,and explaination is needed if possible,im on the fence about buying one,only because of that reason,i would be greatfull if someone can explain this,thanks much k9frog
can someone tell me

I use the 3.0 volt RCR123A batteries, lifePo. Two of them together makes for 6 volts and they are protected batteries too. I believe the SB actually runs at 5 volts under load.
when you put 2 rcr123a batteries together you get on a full charge around 7.2 volts ,i just checked it,what brings it down to 6volt when vaping,,k9
so your saying the voltage drop comes from the atty and the switch,im use to vaping with 5 volts,figured i would try the next level ,but dont need a 7 volt mod,just to cook attys,at 5volt i can get easy 6 to 8 weeks out of a be112 atty,,,k9
Pretty much that's what it boils down too.....Now by no means am i an expert on this technical stuff,But the atty and the switch do take off some voltage from your batts....But please do not quote me on this....Because like i said I'm no expert,this is just my 2 cents worth....
i have no idea why im getting confused ,if the switch and the atty take up the extra voltage ,wouldnt it do the same when using the 18650 3,7 volt battery,,,k9
Most attys are made for 3.7 volts. Using them at higher volyages will shorten there live more as the volts go up. You might look into High volt attys. I seldom vape over 4.5 volts. My attys seem to endure . I find the longer the battery, or the more ma the stronger the th.
boy thanks for the great responce on this subject,BUT !!! i use the standard be112 atty,
never had an issue with them at high volts, but i only went as high as 5 volts,with the glv,so what i understand is when using 6 volts the spring and switch and atty provide the voltage drop to 6 volt,but when using 3.7 volts there is no voltage drop,i got that but dont understand why itll effect one voltage level but not the next,but then again i cant wire in a wall switch lol,,k9

What's confusing? 3.7v batteries charge of up to 4.2v. However, when people say 3.7 volt mod they are referring to the nominal voltage rating of the batteries being used in that particular device. 6v is just a general number referring to the nominal working voltage of the r123a batteries. It is much easier for people to say "I am vaping at 6v" and disregard the technical side of it. If you want a voltage that is constant and never changes I would reccommend the BB PT.
i believe i see what your saying,doesnt hurt to ask questions when your not sure of somthing,but the important thing here is that it must work as intended or you wouldnt be here answering me,i think ill place my order for the sb,,k9
