That gives me 3 sources saying essentially the same thing, so good. They are both 900mah and same brand. I messed up one ego board and someone else messed up another so I guess the only wild card is, I don't know how heavily used the other one was over the two weeks before I got a hold of it and hooked them to a third board. I don't think me using one 3 weeks and the other person using the other batt for 2 weeks would have worn down from the manufactured mah by a too much.

FGSP!

Take the batteries out and charge them in a dual-channel charger the right way and swap in a new pair. Takes 10 seconds.

Otherwise you end up splitting the charge and it takes twice as long for no reason and puts the mod out of commission.

:facepalm: :2c:

The problem with that is they are both top posts only. I don't know of a charger built for them.

If you were talking to me... Uuuummm... It doesn't take 10 seconds to un/resolder 10AWG directly onto the terminals of the battery. I've been charging my box mod through an 18650 charger that's been wired to a 510 connector. Of course, I've been putting a block of stainless steel on the button to fire it to keep the batteries connected. :facepalm: Maybe a mid-press activated toggle switch would work better.

And now all we need is someone that doesn't know the difference between series and parallel.

And now we're supplying information to the community. Most/some people will fret about the differences between series and parallel and go learn. I've been in the high voltage community for years, and we/I see it all the time. The age old question of "What is the difference between Series and Parallel?"

If it was a matter of just getting "normal" batteries I wouldn't have done it. I just wanted to make use of what I had. I have enough functioning egos to keep me satisfied for now. I suppose I could have just put one battery into one of the old cases but...whatever, lol.

The thread started with atomizer mods and now we are on battery mods. Which section? lol.

ETA - Another reason I did this is I was considering an MVP. I wasn't sure if I would like the feel of a box and the additional weight. I find I actually like this more than a tube in that way.

What I have Noticed is when this is Going on, Providing Information to the Community, that the Waffles Irons and the Taco Carts don't come out.

:facepalm: Made me chuckle. Good reference.

I stand corrected! Lolz

Don't we all at one point in our lives? Especially butters.

I'm staring at the Fasttech shopping cart page with the Trident, Ithaka, more NCR18650PDs, US18650VTC3s and some 510 adapters on it. Doing some serious vape budget hands right now... What I need is a 10% off coupon. Haha.
