Thanks guys! I try my damnedest to post the mumbo jumbo in layman's terms, but at times I even fail that. This convo reminds me of some of the convos VM, WW and I exchanged last summer - absolutely invigorating

@ 5card didn't want to confuse the issue any more than it was LOL which of course the Provari uses or any other VV device that uses a single 3.7V battery. The chief advantage of boost circuitry is that you are using a single cell vs stacking batts. OTOH battery life sucks, but there is always a price to pay for performance.

I actually hate boost circuitry. Yes, it's safer than stacking batteries but then I have to carry even more batteries around... lol Double edged sword, I guess. And your explanation was very good, there's only so much you can put in layman's terms before it doesn't make sense the way it should.

Yes! It was very good switched! You brought it down many levels I'm sure. I really do like knowing how things work. (I'm a programmer/DBA guy though. Don't know a whole lot about the innerds. )

I actually understood most of it and it was very helpful.

But!... I know in a month or so when I'm hopefully ready to buy a new device, I'll be right back here asking you, loft and Isaac... Umm... what's the difference between these batteries.

Thanks to all!

I'm taking a hiatus! JK! Glad to help, even if Switcher has to complete my thoughts for me as I'm always in a rush. The joys of chasing a 3 year old around.

Don't fret my man I have your back. It is not about showing any one up, it is about getting the correct info out there. Here we are a small group and it is not too difficult. However quashing the myths on this forum is a full time job, and I am retired (read I don't do it no more)

No problemo, I already know you're the vaping god *bows* lol jk. I just always have very little downtime until around 11pm EST, then I'm game to take my time responding.

has anyone used the new batteries yet? i'm wanting info about the 18350's before i load them in my cart

 

[Switched]

What I know about them is that they come from the same factory that makes the AWs, I can't confirm nor deny this.

 

[tybin]

that is very helpful switched thanks! that would suggest that they are like the panasonic cells correct? another 100mah would sure be nice

 

[Switched]

Glad to be of assistance although in a diminutive capacity wrt this particular Q

 

[tybin]

ok i have a new question is it possible to have a closed sticky thread that gives the seasoning/break in info for each type of atty??? that would be good, so one didn't have to dig through posts

 

[tybin]

and here is my in advanced response cuz i know what's comin

I would like to just be able to send a newbie over and tell them here is the link. The one link now that is called l"how long does an atty generally last you".It has some great nuggets. Now i have my posts already set at 40 per page and it is still three pages long. I'd love to see the golden nuggets consolidated and closed in a new thread so a newbie doesn't go cross eyed and just not even get to the little gems at the end of the 88 posts at the moment, i've just used the "like" button to capture a few great points

 

[Switched]

Is this a trick Q Folks can start here Customer Login

 

[tybin]

i think it would be helpful to send forum mrmbers here not just customers. when i tun into atty misbehaving in the threads, i eanna point and shoot to you switcher and the other vets

 

[Switched]

OK then the short answer is that each atty is different. some take minutes, some take hours and some take even days. There is no short answer and IMMHO you cannot categorize them as such. If someone else is willing to proclaim different then perhaps they would be the one to write this article

 

[tybin]

i just was hoping some one would put the seasoning info for each atty (how many drops for each kind) and the how to pull a vape properly to extend atty life in a locked thread

It sounds like you're asking for the proper way to prime each atty and general vaping information pertaining to each as well...??

 

[tybin]

yes dear the initial seasoning. the amount of drops you add then let sit. plus that great tip about firing before bringing to the mouth and releasing before leaving,etc
