Thanks again Switcher for the CEU's (Continuing Education Units). A few more units and I'll get a pay grade bump

When I suspect (theory) I perform practical to confirm my beliefs, nothing more.
There actually are ways of this happening. Although it is rare. An improper charger can lead to an improper discharge. Say if a safety feature built on to the charger for battery itself (Li-ion PCB computer board circuit) failed and the charger kept charging the battery without knowing when to cut off the current. The battery does have a chance of a high current release. An atomizer with current devices on the market is Full charge ON, once button released, full charge OFF. This alone is safety hazard to atomizers' coils as it does stress the element to being inoperable. Switcher is still correct in a sense though good buddy. If anything it will be a full blast, but signs of cosmetics will be noticeable before the battery leaves your had to slide into the unit. there are high rates of paranoia when this topic arises where you have guys that are continuously checking their power supplies. It is a good practice but overkill in a sense. What I do with a freshly charged battery that has been sitting in a case or (fresh off the charger) is visually inspect it and when applied to the unit, point the atom away from you and give a quick 1 second burst. Once the first burst is given you have clear sails unless your recklessly trying to use a dead battery.
The 1st burst is Always the largest. Thanks Isaac

May be true for your particular atty and liquid
Does wire diameter affect resistance?
Not necessarily.
Resistance can be increased in a number of ways depending upon the conductor and insulator types in the wire's composition.
One way is to use a different alloy...adding more 'insulator' material to the wire, which might make it 'fatter' or bigger around to get more resistance from a wire of the same length. I.E. for a regular ceramic type resistor, they just change the mix of conductor/insulator materials in the ceramic. Larger ceramic resistors can dissipate more 'watts' without shorting, even if a smaller one has the 'same resistance'. I.E. A 2 Ohm 1/4watt resistor is much smaller than a 2 Ohm 1 watt resistor. The ceramic mix is probably very similar for both resistors, but you just get MORE OF IT in the larger 1 watt version.
I'm not certain of the rule for nichrome type wires, but I think fatter ones have HIGHER resistance because more insulator material is added to the alloy, thus adding 'bullk' and a little bit of surface area to the wire. I may well be wrong. It could easily be the other way around where nichrome wire diameter is involved.
What does make sense, is that one would choose a thicker wire because in theory it could handle more watts before it burns out. The resistance of the wire would depend on the alloy used in making the wire.
On the other hand, if you put an extra coil or two in the wrap of the atty...that will almost always add some resistance as well as surface area to the wire.

What is ikenvapes new site called?every time I try to buy something from the site it gives me a server error??please help!!!!!!
That's because his site is down. Please refer to this thread. http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/ikenvape/229571-ikv-update.html
Did the Cannon attys ever get revised? I liked them a lot except for that durn leaking.
From what I have read and understand, Yes they were. I have not had a chance to tr the newest run yet though.Did the Cannon attys ever get revised? I liked them a lot except for that durn leaking.
I don't know if Isaac will make it back here in the next few days.
But can somebody tell me what XLR and LR 510s are SS? I'm hooked on the clear SC 1.6s, but need something that'll work in a lava tank. (Everything IKV I have in my drawer is black except for fusions)
The LR Fusions work great, but I'd rather not use an adapter if I don't have to.

If I understand what you're asking...
XLR = IKV 510 XLR Atomizer 1.5
LR = IKV 510 LR Atomizer 1.8
These are SS.
XLR = IKV 510 XLR Atomizer 1.5
LR = IKV 510 LR Atomizer 1.8
These are SS.
Hi Everyone,
I am about to place an order, can you tell me where to find a coupon code? Thanks!

Thanks loft! But I can't believe that I didn't mention I was looking for cartos. I want them for the lava tank. I know the LR Fusions work great for me. I was just wondering what other cartos, if any, IKV has that are SS/metal for other folks that are asking. Some aren't looking for LR.
All we're black that I've tried from IKV excepr fusions and clears.

I went ahead an ordered some LR Fusions for me! But, still would like to know all other SS cartos so I can tell friends.
I don't know about the rest of you all, but I LOVE this new website. MUCH better than the old one. GREAT job Isaac!!!
If you want something done right, you do it yourself. Eh?
