Can anyone tell me how long the 510 atty normally lasts on the SB?
I know that it's subject to use, but I'm about to buy a starter kit, and want to make sure I have enough on hand.

Thanks.
I'd get at least 5 to start with. That should last you a while and you can always grab more with a juice purchase later on.

It just depends :) I prefer the regular 510 atomizers, but the LR 510 Atomizers are pretty good too. The LR seem to typical burn out quicker than the regular ones, but both can burn out just the same.

Typically with LR 510 you want to add more liquid as they cut through vapor like crazy.
WIth the LR 510 I would use the 18650 only :)

How long till the sb hot springs are back in stock. I gotta make a purchase soon and wanted to include one whereas i still rock the old spring and want to try out lr attys @ 3.7 with the better spring.

Thanks

Second that question.

I need a Silver Vein Silver Bullet to go with my Silver Vein Omega and want to get an extra spring, if possible.

2 questions:

1. When purchasing 3V batteries (I know you don't recommend), should I be buying the RCR123A 3.0V 900mAh or the RCR123A 3.0V 750mAh ?

2. When dripping on a 510 atomizer using a SB, how many puffs do you normally get? I've seen that most people suggest 3 drops, and I also understand that there are too many variables to pin the number of puffs/drags/whatever to one specific number, but I'd still like to have a ballpark figure so I don't screw up some atomizers.


Thanks.

1.) Eh Either works, depends on personal preference. Neither is recommended nor is suggested. One uses a PCB (900mAh) other uses LiFEp04 chemisty (750mAh) which if an issue happens it could still vent but shouldnt vent with flame.

2.) Depends on the voltage :p 6v 3-4 Drips gives me about 5-7puffs. 3.7v...eh...can't remember 2-3 drops same? :p

Theoretically the 900mAh should last longer before needing recharged. The voltage drop would depend on how it's made.

There is no regulatory body (that I know of) enforcing battery labeling and manufacturers seem to take quite some liberties in this. An AW battery with one rating might last significantly longer than another battery with a larger rating stamped on it. I would make the analogy to wear ratings on tires. They give a rough comparison *within* a manufacturer's line. Not so much when comparing one manufacturer's tire to another's.
