Tom, do you happen to have a current list of people for the LBC? I'm curious when I should dig up the money I buried in a hole in the backyard for the LBC.
You are on the first run.... You wiggled up to #9. Grab a shovel.

I don't know how many times I've said this...but I simply cannot wait until the Catfish Atty mods dna 200's are in full production....:w00t:-:w00t:

That day will be a call for celebration....!

Yes, its been my project for some time now. Don't bother printing in PLA because of the intollerence to heat and if you do ABS then look for a coat to put on it because the model will start to crack apart

Looks good. The 3d printer scare me is like the first step to telaportation lol. There are very few squonks out there more then 40 watts is what made me notice it was something special. I have searched this planet for aNY squonks with real power and there is nothing I can find to buy except the lbs and the tbev 200. The sxj.s people make are unicorns. Why high power squonks have not caught on in the main stream vape industrie is beyond me. And I'm still a new squonker got my first dualy tmod in December of 2015 and everything non squonk related has been sold, 3 dna 200, a bunch of sxj350s, I would love one of those clear lbc's. Im allready committed to 2 tbev dna 200s thow and that's my mod fund for quit awhile I would realy actually like the last xl lbc u were talking about the other day with a real batterie in it. The mad modder dna 200 with 1800 mah max amps was nice the vapor shark, and hana, with 900 mah did not last me even half a day at 65 watts

what mls did ya get outta a 1800 mah if ya recall?
im hopin the 1500 mah lipo will be at least 10ml juice per charge,not getting that out of the fully max batt..dmmit.not happy at all with that lipo.youd think evolv woulda stepped the batt up a bit more for the dna200.live and learn in the vape world im finding out...for some time now..lol.whatever the company can make the most $ at is the norm...customer be dmmed in the new world,ha.any delivery date set on the mod you want by chance?

What load (resistance)?

A given capacity will last a lot longer at 0.4 ohm than at 0.2 ohm. Not just double either as the capacity is less at higher loads.

As to available products or battery choices, there's a lot to consider.

With batteries you have to look at form factor, price point, availability, quality, consistency, and more.

A 2Ahr battery that can't be supplied reliably is useless. If too many fail quickly that's bad for a seller.

I don't realy remember how many MLS I got from the 1800 max amps. To put it in perspective. It was still at about 1/4 batterie life left at the end of the day using only that mod at 65 to 75 watts. Running any were from .08 to .15 builds it was not a squonk so MLS are hard to say. And I chain vape I drive for a liVing so vape when ever I feel like it ya know brother.
And I have noticed I use alot less juice squonking then I did dripping with the same style builds. It uses it more efficently. I have no confirmed date for the tbev 200.

What would you use to coat ABS to prevent cracking?

Not to hijack the thread, but was the issue with the heat and pla around the 510?

Sent from my VS986 using Tapatalk
Pla would warp beacuase of the heat badly (like car temps on a summer day heat) and because of the design of the model the ABS would split at thinner walls of the model not because of the heat but wear and tear. I'm going to try a coating of a polymer to bind the ABS and sand/prime/paint/veneer it

Edit:Resin to coat ABS XTC 3D on Amazon

just wondering if tbev had got everything streamlined the way he was talking about a while back.i love the devices i get from him i just think he over commits and ends up under delivering.not talkin crap about Tom im just saying he cant say no.once you try a dna200 squonker with escribe to boot youll dig it.did ya get into the escribe with your tank dna200?im still waiting on my 316 ss wire then ill hope to be able to do TC with the 200.havent been able to use ni200.

Are we brothers? Either way, you are on the team. The LBC was created out of need.

Your mileage may differ but:
With the 950 in the LBC the battery lasts me exactly 2 fillings of the 8.5ml soft Italian bottle with a z coiled stumpy at 52 watts. I have noticed dual coil will drain the battery about 10 percent faster. I have been using these mods (battery and board config) for what 9 months now? Once you get past the novelty of 200w phase I'm certain you will have similar results. For those that live to vape at 80-100 watts all day I'm sure you will have different results. The LBC will do 200w without a problem but if that is your goal you should probably look into a much larger device with a 2000mah plus battery. These figures are ALL based on a 3 cell lipo, for a 2 cell solution add another 33%. Do the math: 3x 950 is 2850 vs 2 x 1800 is 3600mah not a huge difference in available capacity; but a huge difference in device size. 25mm wide battery vs 35mm wide battery. 10mm= 3/8", a difference of 3/8" in the hand is huge.

The 2 cell will severely limit the versatility as well. With 2 cell the Dna200 will only put out 6 volts to the coil which should be of great concern for you single coil guys. I run into the volt limit at 9 volts more often than I would like to admit when playing with high resistance builds. Bare in mind when I say high resistance I'm talking about 1-1.5 ohms. For instance: Right now on my clear LBC I have a Narda with a 1.08 ohm coil. On a 2 cell dna200 that would only allow me to use 33.3 watts however with 3 cells I have 74.8 watts available; big difference don't you think? The 2 cell dna200 concept is thrown around quite a bit but I don't think many people consider the severe limitations of de-rating the power source. Sure you can build it like a mech but at that point why not just stick with a mech?

well the 950 is better then the fully man 900 from the sounds of it.just ordered a 1500 turnigy 3s 25-50c.wish id have known better with the fullymax 900...live and learn i guess.if it fails ill have to see what i can fit in the steam crave or junk it and do a diff box altogether.

just ordered a box from the brits wide boy 100,looks like ill have room for everything since i couldnt find a box in the states and the hammonds i just dont care for.these are basically a hammond but cnc'd outta aluminium, and anodized,lots cleaner look.94mm x 56mm x 22mm inner dimensions,outer is a bit bigger but still smaller then the FDV box 7mm less in width 3ml in heighth same thickness no sliding door to mess with,magnets.

I've never seen the concern with a lipo as far as amount of time between charging. The DNA 200 board has (IMO) one of the best charging schemes available so I charge my DNA 200's throughout the day as necessary. While I will probably build a big mAh squonker at some point for now I am fine with my FullyMax 900, the trade off in size isn't worth it to me & as a few of you know it isn't easy building a "small" DNA 200 squonker due to board size, a battery AND a bottle.

As far as the 3D printers are concerned the entry price to a high end printer is still way more than a milling machine, I elected for the milling machine, guess I'm just old school. Here's what I've been working on for the past few weeks. I bought an older 220V mill/drill milling machine & I've been going through it. She's a "benchtop" model but with 750lbs shipping weight & 1.5hp it's got more than enough capacity for my (current) needs. Cleaning, adjusting & modifying so I can start milling in the garage. I still have to install my DRO's but other than that it's ready for chips :thumb:
