Eww cleaned my threads and it was green....

[DaMulta]

Was cleaning the battery threads up a bit on my 510, and the paper cloth I was using was green when I pulled it out...... At leat it was only the threads, and not inside the atomizer.

Really it made me think "Is this battery corrosion?" Also wondered if that could get in my vapor....

My 801 battery is like that too. I think it's from juice leaking though.

 

[boxhead]

wow or cool, means you have had it a while, and i got the green stuff on me 801 batts, and noticed that they preformed less so i assumed it is time for new ones, then just made a SD to 801 dealie to keep on vapin...
was worried about green being a form of ....... and now i postit on the charger how many times i charge my auto batterys, 200-300. now on a sealed battery i think the stuff would go to the led end, but by the time u see it the battery is done.
just guessing. kina and others would know...
it got me to make the adaptor, and thinking about how to open up a 9 volt battery to use as a replacement to put in a 801/901 batt tube, yeah, needs the right vDC and mAh, but the battery package in our auto battery is a foil sealed tube of stuff and some bigger batterys use a bunch of simular stuff...
just rambling sorry

Well I bought this battery that it did it on with the new Mega 510 realese. So it's really not that old, and it's still working just fine. Just really didn't like seeing green in there in all truths.

 

[boxhead]

ah, then the jboze is more right, what do vape liquid wise?

 

[kinabaloo]

copper/brass complexes, probably; a little juce seapage problem. wiping contacts really does help with power throughput. Might actually be more blue than first appears but the color is affected by yelowed juice (oxidised nicotine) and the brass color.

 

[kinabaloo]

such metal complexes might be the explanation for that green juice episode - though how the metal got in there i don't know; perhaps a metal part in the processing equipment (probably copper); certainly wouldn't taste nice; lingers for ages on the tongue too; lick a copper coin or pipe to see what i mean

You vaping straight absinthe again DaMulta??

 

[boxhead]

i`ll take kinas word on likin a penny...

 

[DaMulta]

Most of the time it has been TW RedBull 36Mg(and or other TW Liquids). I did vape a little RY4, and some NHaler 60Mg Strawberry Kiwi mix on it also....

I do drip only if that could make a difference.

I was also thinking of the mixed metals kina, but I have only used TW Joye parts on it....


I had my first few glasses of absinthe not to long ago, and I was left with"It taste like NightQuil...."

Got some Absinthe juice from Decandent Vapours and it's the first green juice I got ;-) I like it. Never did NightQuill..... but it has some anise in it with some other flavors.

wise ...

I get the same - if the atty is not sealed especially, will get some green copper complexes, which can be wiped off to improve performance.

Copper(II) chloride dissociates in aqueous solution to give the blue color of [Cu(H2O)6]2+ and yellow or red color of the halide complexes of the formula [CuCl2+x]x-. Concentrated solutions of CuCl2 appear green because of the combination of these various chromophores. The color of the dilute solution depends on temperature, being green around 100 °C and blue at room temperature.[2] When copper(II) chloride is heated in a flame, it emits a green-blue colour.

It is a weak Lewis acid, and a mild oxidizing agent. It has a crystal structure consisting of polymeric chains of flat CuCl4 units with opposite edges shared. It decomposes to CuCl and Cl2 at 1000 °C:

2 CuCl2(s) → 2 CuCl(s) + Cl2(g)
In its reaction with HCl (or other chloride sources) to form the complex ions CuCl3- and CuCl42-.[3]

I wonder if it could put out any harmful gases.....
