my vamo v3 has broken. it's not putting any voltage to the pin. while i await my v6 can i run my nautilus mini straight off an 18650 cell? i know i must be careful not to drain the bat too much and i have a multi-meter.
help me, help me!

Although I'm not real comfortable with the phrase "straight off an 18650 cell" (what exactly does that mean?)... That's what a mech mod is - a battery holder/circuit normally open/press to close, "switch". At 4.2v with a 0.5Ω "load", you're pulling 35.3 watts.
with the cell in a holder i thought i might run wires to my mini - 1.8 Ohms. i would "fix" the positive, and touch the ground wire to the case as a switch.
Reminds me of member "vapero's" avatar.
Normally, I'd say that's a not-so-clever idea, but at 1.8Ω, you're not pulling much. Instead I'll just say, If your medical is paid up... don't let me slow your roll. ;-)
i dig that avatar! pretty much what i had in mind. isn't that just what a mech is? anyway, i scrapped the idea. i remembered i had a nice little variable dc p/s , does 0 to 15V to 5A. i'm thinking that will lite up my mini. i haven't tried yet. went and bought a pack of analogs last nite and gonna try to stretch them to wednesday when my v6 should be here. i will buy a backup for the v6 real soon.
