First non-EGO.

Looking at upgrading from EGO1100mah power supply. I use Protank, PT3, and CE4 tanks. I do have a little Octopus dripper, but don't like it.

Is this worth considering as a experimental Mech mod? AND more important, what would the coil limitations be for such a thing?

I can't see how many of the batteries are being used at once. Without knowing exactly what can fit in that, I couldn't crunch the numbers for you. If it fits 3 14500 batteries (roughly AA size) in parallel then you'd have a pretty ok vape, and fairly long lasting, but not one comparable (imo) to the 18650 and you'd have issues finding a matched triplet of them to vape safely.

If you're working towards upgrading but still staying inexpensive I'd say get yourself a Vamo or other variable mod. Still a tube, just a larger tube and they add features. Pop a Protank on any variable mod and you've got yourself a tuneable vape, safety, and large battery life.

Anyway congratulations in advance on your soon to be graduation.

MVP2 works well for me.

Even a SVD would work great for you mvp2 as well it's all up to what you would like .

The MVP2 can be purchased at 101vape for $40 which is a great deal, and it charges your phone. The Eleaf iStick seems pretty popular right now as a cheap regulated device.

OK to clarify. I want an opinion and assessment of, this, unit.. I KNOW a Vamo V## or MVP or even a EGO Twist might be an alternative. BUT, that is NOT the question.

The question is, what would be the lowest or highest OHM Coil it could handle? Would the $10 be better spent buying another EGO 1100mah fixed volt battery it would replace.

 

[Israfil]

Thats the thing, that unit doesn't say how many of those 3 batteries it comes with are designed to go into it at once. Without more details on the unit we can't give accurate information, thus we default to advising you towards things we do know.

Considering it comes with 3 1.5 volt alkaline batteries and using rechargeable 14500 would kick it up to over 12 volts on a fresh set I think I would pass on this mod.

 

[DavidOck]

Right, it says alkaline. They typically don't have the current capability needed for vaping. I'd not spend any money on it, myself.

The question is more how LOW a coil you can use, and that will depend on the amp limits of the alkaline batteries.

 

[93gc40]

it uses 3 AA batteries producing 4.5 volts..........

 

[Absintheur]

I am tempted to buy one and just rewire it for 3 14500 in parallel...cheap enough kit to play with.
