i believe that its time to stop thinking about how much a battery last. Its an obssesion without a reason buddy. If we think like this then we will not vape e-cigs but hookahs.

We always carry one battery with us. With a smaller 18500 battery we will carry 1 more. Thats way better than carrying a huge e-cig in our pocket or our hands all day
Yes I understand that Imeo, I was just commenting on it from my own perspective.
First and foremost I think that once everyone has tried out the electronic part they will not want to go back.
So there's 2 choices, slim and elegant proteus + carry around batteries.
Or 18650 Esterigon + electronic part for all day vaping. Basically, 18500 are not good enough to last you an entire day, so if I was to use a larger mod, I'd use the 18650.
I will be trying both but I'm sure that Proteus will be my frequency preference. An added benefit of proteus is that it is discrete, which is an added benefit when you're outside

you buy esterigon, estrerigon 18650 and 18350 tubes if you like and then proteus Sad. Then we will make a tube fort esterigon to fit proteus electronics
So we buy Proteus and buy Esterigon tube to use later with Proteus PCB? And then VIR?

Esterigon is one mod that i am looking forward to, I have been trying to figure out lately drippers or tanks that i would like to try they all have some good points and some bad it is really hard to decide I was cloud chasing for a little while but found I didn't have the equip to reach my goal not yet anyways I love my Ithaka and don't kill me but i need more air flow thats my opinion the cash flow is low and its great to know that i can count on Imeo to produce another great mod i don't have to second guess about it or get sold by bias reviews which really piss me off lately. Thank imeo for the thoughtfull work and attention to detail. Well theres my 2 cents scary when u have a day off how much i talk!

thank you Adam. I too have seen some reviews that GG people send me from time to time via pm about products that they are not as they advertised. I see the weak points on those videos even if reviewers try to hide. Thats why I make my own videos always and I fully dissasemble my devices so you can always know if they have a weak point or not and you can also see if they are innovated products.
I also see people that do direct inhales to produce more smoke, people that vape under light to make smoke look bigger and others that say what battery and what resistance they use but they dont show them to people.

The good thing is that you understand what is going on.

It is getting harder and harder to determine the truth from lies and fact from fiction but the answer is to educate each other and to keep an open mind the vaping community seems small in Canada to me and the so called health professionals do not seem to have any real information, study's so we have to count on each other for the real info. Keep vaping everyone and vape safe.

I look a review from time to time but only to see the devices in detail :) In the past I bought a few devices and I almost all of them were sold again...

Just some days ago I had an accident with a highly credited device... It is a bottom switch telescopic hybrid mod. The adjustable centerpin is a nut sitting on the atomizer centerpole screw. Cause I am used to "lock" my GGs by unscrewing the telescope I did this too with this device in addition to the locking ring. Guess what happened? By using the telescope often I unscrewed the center pole screw bit by bit and finally it unscrewed and found its place besides the tube. Then I wanted to vape, fixed the telescope unlocked the ring and DAMN - that was hot! I had a full short in my hand! Not enough now the (copper) firepin was welded to the battery pole so I had to unscrew the telescope to break the circuit and that device was really HOT...

Well, thing like this confirm why I am around this forum and the GGs. Also with a look on maintainance - the other mod has copper contacts with small inner threads. Copper tarnished very fast and if anyone has an idea how to clean those small inner threads - please tell me! :)
Never experienced such a mess with my GGs, everything is easy to clean and (dis)assemble !

I had the same and "fried" my Ithaka as I forgot to block the firing button... After 10 minutes, it was hot, indeed, clear window was melted and battery was kaput...

These accidents happen, when we use unprotected batteries, without electronics... BUT the solution is close: Proteus electronics...
Alternatively, use protected batteries. But definitely the electronics in Proteus is superior.

.... not to speak about the nice oled screens showing a power far from the quantity of watts truly delivered ;)

this statement should be backup by some evidences, not to be mistaken with a trollish post ;)

If I understood Corona correct then he didn't suggest for some false data,provide by manufacture
Only that volt are part of the story.
and manufacture don't make too much effort to explain that on there part.
So if most don't have basic electrician education then they may come to understand
Un correctly the data provide as volt by the manufactures.
It's the nature relation between volt and watt that make people who don't understand this
to perceive the screen data in a mischievous way.

I'm not sure I understand you Itshak. Are you refering to the blinking values when atomizer resistance is outside the boundaries of this chip?

Nope.
I said I thought Corona refer to that many time people push volts becouse it was the only data they had
Available without knowing how much watt the actually provide to the atty.
So one mode could be set to 5 volts
And the other brand while one will provide higher watt
And the other will provide lower watt do to amp limitation.
So providing voltage data only keep you in the dark if you are not aware to all
Other factors.

gotcha!! However, corona speaks specificaly of a blue oled screen, so I think he has a specific chip in mind ... I was curious to know if there's some issue about that chip I was unaware of.
That being said, I must admit that at the end, the info on the screen isn't that important. I want to believe that my taste buds are more accurate that any scientific probe, and I always rely on them to detect my sweet spot detection rather that info provided by the regulated mod. Imeo go that right by not including a space consuming screen on his electronic !! The right wattage is the one making my taste buds happy, and this can be reached by pressing + or - buttons ;)
As you mentionned, there's many variables to consider with mecanical mods, way too many to be compatible with a user-friendly usage ... not everyone want to make complex calculation taking into account coill resistance, battery internal resistance, mod resistance, battery continuous drain limit etc ... I had fun doing that but I'm tired of it, and do believe that futur belongs to regulated mods (and non-leaking, easy to refill and re-coil rebuildable atomizers).
I'm disgressing ... but hey, one need to kill time when longing for estirigon/proteus ;)

edit: I forgot batteries as part of futur. I want all the bells and whistles of high-drain 18650 batteries to be available to 18500 and 18350 batteries ;)

Info on screen can be wrong like the vamo with a single battery. Measuring is pretty easy to know the difference. As for dna devices I never saw a value that is not true. I mean there is accuracy errors, Nothing is perfect but there are degrees of accuracy errors.That's what separates good chips from bad chips.

You are right all the affirmations here are highly documented ;) have a look to the serious reviews, with measure tests, made by a youtuber called nukevape, specially the itaste svd (14") or sigelei 20w; if you own several regulated mods , or kicks, you will probably notice difference in feel with a same ato, at the same given wattage ..
