I got in trouble for doing that. Highping will whip you with his wemeraner.

Get a HV 510....seriously its like eating a flaming chocolate covered hotdog.

Not really.
Im just bored.

He will whip me with his what?????

Yeah, I got the HV atties and I like the 5.2 one ok, but the one for 6V is meh. I tried cartos when I first got my Chuck and I didn't like it at 6V. Maybe I need to revisit it.

Offtopic...

Seems to be the atty's quality problem that's causing its own demise. Got a brand new 510 atty from HealthCabin and boy, it was way different from the ones I'm sourcing locally. The bridge is thicker and the vape is smoother and it doesn't heat up as much as my other atties.

Houdini, if ever you're reading this, may I ask where you source your atties? Coz it looks to me that there are inferior atties out there that cannot stand high voltage vaping thru the Chuck.

I should qualify my statement a bit. I mean... some cartos taste awful at 6v some are awesome. Kind of depends on taste too... I have been refilling mine with Atomic Fireball and Butterfinger, and they both taste good at 6v and beyond, but Drews Camel and 55 taste funky to me at 6v, while PS's Camel and 555 taste fine.

I think flavors that are really bright, and strong (like Halo's ginger flavored stuff) mellow a bit and become darker and more complex at higher volts, same goes with the really sweet ones like Atomic Fireball and Butterfinger.

The flavors that are more complex and have a lot of different subtle flavors in them get kind of muddled together at high volts, and taste a bit burnt to me.

The whole I like this flavor with that atty and this voltage gets to be quite the little project.

ePuff: The ones I got from Nhaler have taken a beating and have been consistent and durable. I've been abusing them at 7.4 volts as well.

I got my first HV 801 atty from Nhaler. It lasted 3 weeks. When it popped I had just started using a different juice from Ms. T's. At first I thought my batteries were being over-charged but that turned out not to be the case. My meter was inaccurate due to low batteries. So the only thing I see different is the juice. I am expecting some more HV attys today from Indy so we'll see how those work out. I've been without my Chuck for a week.

It's protected 18350s that are figments of someone's imagination.



With the exception of the first 4, all links were found as a result of a google search. I haven't tried any of these stores.

By hereabouts I meant my motherland the Philippines. And to think I live in the capital, supposedly the most urbanized and commercial part of the country, and I can't find one friggin' 18650 battery!

Should I order some online now? Just in case those HV atties disappoint?

I already ordered some HV 510 atties from Eastmall. Hope they solve my problem once and for all, otherwise I might just have to get 18650 batteries, which are as rare as a UFO sighting hereabouts.

It's such a WTF! moment getting your Chuck after two suspenseful weeks of waiting and not being able to fully enjoy it. :([/QUOTE
Their are two suppliers that I have only seen that sell the HV 510 atty, but only Nhaler sells two types of HV 510 attys, you need the one rated at 5.2 ohms for the Chuck, NOT the 4.3 to 4.5 ohms, and he is SOLD OUT now, or you can use at 6 volts a regular 801 atty, last a little better then the 306 atty about 3 weeks, 306 atty last about two weeks.

Is ordering from China an option? DealExtreme and Light in the Box are both there (and shipping time has to be less to the Philippines than to the U.S.)

The 18650 batterys from China are good but the wait is long, airmail is is the longest wait 15 days average, but can be 21 days, EMS is faster but cost a lot, lot more for shipping.

Try this site in the US Li-ion 18650 Protected 2400mAh Battery - e-lectronics.net :

The Chuck at 3.7 volts using a 18650 battery with a 306 atty which fits on a 510 connector is my home vape, it is a real good vape. Now I use my BB every day while at work at 6 volts with a regular 510 atty, or a adapter with a carto. Now the 306 atty does not last long with the BB at 6 volts, about 2 weeks because of the CR2 battery's, on the other hand my SB at 6 volts using 123A battery's will NOT burn out any attys. But a better throat hit on the BB which is my thing.

But for ePuffDaddy, who can't find them in the Philappines, it might be faster to order from China than from the U.S.

Speaking of China, I ordered a ton of colored atomizers from Health Cabin. They shipped on 2/24. Yesterday I got an e-mail from them
Dear customer, we are very sorry to inform you that your package was returned to us because it accidently failed to pass through our customs.
How do you accidentally fail to pass customs? Did it trip and get turned back because the customs person thought it was trying to sneak through?

Now my Little C might get here before it's accessories (although black will look nice, too.)
