i dont know what that means, i used it at full charge if thats what your asking and worked for hours and kept its range decently.

It means while in use or under load. 'scottbee' tested a wide range of batts in some thread and found most are not true 3.7v but I think ours may be. No big deal either way, looks sweet.

Wow, that is a lot of vapor w/ short draws. That new Vgo looks sweet, have you tested it under load at 3.7v?


Edit: Oh, I see it was asked already..lol

Yes. It was asked..hahaha.

Bad: Isn't the 808 thread the same as 510? I have some 808 shorties and they fix on the ego nicely. Any advice is much appreciated..hehehe

edit: oh..nevermind..it doesn't fire up on the std 510 batts :p

But for argument purposes I left my e2 standing upside down all night long with only the silicone filler ring inside... And I had no leak at all!!

OK well mine are version 3's and they have a small silicone washer on top then another one covering the ceramic cup, are you saying pull both off because I notice in your one second drag Vid you have NO silicone cover at all and you ceramic cup is exposed, so I will try this and see how mine work, only problem I see is the liquid must run out if you turn yours up side down it has to

here is a quick test of the r4 doing the shortest drags ever , 1second drags producing HHUUGGEE vapor.

I find your video interesting, bad. As I told you guys before, I have been doing 1 second "sips" since way back when with the E2's. As near as I can tell, I don't see much difference if any with your 1 second drags. This leaves me wondering what in the hell has been going on? Is this why I have not been all that impressed with the PTB mod? I don't think there is anything special about my juice, so I have not been thinking of that as a factor. But then, maybe there will be a definite difference with the R4, so I'll just have to wait and see. If it vapes any better though, I don't know how I will handle it. I am already getting as much or more nicotine than I really need.

br the "main" difference I've noticed with the PTB installed is that it allows me to use the XL's on a 3.7v box mod and get full flavor: no dry or harsh taste. At higher voltages it really improves the wicking to the coil. I run my older plastic E2's on my variable LS or BB without PTB and they work fine at sub-3v.

I just ordered one of Ken's Big Brother 3.7v mods (2 14500's in parallel in a 2AA box). I'm going to eventually order some 3.2 ohm XL's to try with it, but for now I'll be using my old XL's with PTB.

I can go along with your findings, Banjo. I just haven't had a need to do extensive testing at 3.7 volts. This is mainly because that voltage ruins the taste of my juice, even when I use the PTB mod. If I am ever in doubt about dry wicking, I just drip directly on the coil to find out.

I still haven't gone to a variable battery yet. I do most of my vaping from a variable voltage PT, but for walk around I sneak by with a 510 or Hello battery. I'm still waiting for a good working 510 at 3Ω, which I believe will become my main stay on these batteries.

Yeah, I still like the old plastic cup E2's. I believe we had more going for them than we realized back in the beginning. Their short wick can pick up everything in the reservoir a good bit better than the longer XL's.

Hopefully, the R4 is doing a better job, but I may not find out until they become obsolete. Badkolo keeps loosing my mailing address, so who knows what he will eventually do.

Bad looses everyone's info so don't think you're special br. Then again you are pretty special, but that's a topic for another thread.

It took some special editing to work the wording around so as to take a poke at Bad without getting off topic. The Devil made me do it.

Yeah, we fixed that years ago. Turns out however that the government and large corporations are making far too much money from claiming there's still a problem, so you'll never hear about it.

That explains everything...I can't believe they keep all of these brilliant minds locked up in here...
