Just use some screws from an rda. Worked perfectly on mine. Post screws specifically. The heads are much beefier. Really the problem with the screws are the heads. Beefier screws remedy the problem
it will be a hassle at work to do that, we got a memo telling us no more cleaning or fiddling. A lot of people vape
Can you get a larger wire/lower gauge for me, please? I recommend 28 and 26...24 maybe... but I haven't gotten any. 26awg already gets atomizer way too hot.
You can start to taste the kanthal. High gauges just can't put up with heat... someone needs to figure a chart for a vaping voltage rating for different wire gauges.

Oh there is...but look at it this way. The old provari argument, but better..lolLol "my throat hurts today so i cant smoke it".
Well duh.
The 35 and 50w i could kinda understand but seems like they're putting alot of emphasis on a relatively small segment of the market (ie people who could ever conceivably want to go above 50w, especially all the way up to 150).
Not dissing the high power guys, just didn't think there was nearly that much demand for it.
If the ipv3 is in the same box as IPV2, and it has dual batteries, you will have a vaping device with a 1 year warranty.. that can always be sent back for repairs after warranty... or WAY MORE easily done yourself, than provari.
It has a 3.6&7watt minimum. I guess most vapors aren't as forward thinking as to tailor your build...if you don't want to go above 8watts..tailor your build.
Ahh. I see. That makes sense then. I'm not sure what you could use. You would have to use decently strong magnets. And the threading is like an insert so maybe take that out, glue one magnet down there, and then drill the hole on the back plate a tiny bit and glue another magnet in there so it sits flush? Only other thing I know about magnets from my paintball days is people would hold their grips on with rare earth magnets. I hear they are VERY strong.
I'm going to figure out a quick release pin or magnet configuration this week. I don't think anything is really going on at work this week.
Please do so PM me how or a link to tut, would be awesome
Heres a link to some with recessed SS buttons

Huh? That kinda confused me, you want me to use higher gauge wire than 26, but say higher gauge wire can't stand up to the heat? I'm certainly open to tips, this is the first I've used a device this powerful, its definitely a different build style, haven't quite gotten it down yet.
This was supposed to quote the person who said to use higher gauge, my bad.

I'm sorry, I will edit.
Get 26-28awg..30 can work(emphasis on can) for quads..and complex builds, with a lot of wire.. or if you don't like 30+watts.
Edited..I Edited my original post also.

Ya I only used the 32 gauge for a couple hits, it just burned the cotton. I have a 26 gauge dual coil .6 on there now but like you were saying, I can only hit it a couple of times before the cap gets really hot, and if I hit it for more than a second at 35 watts it just burns even with the 26, trial and error I suppose. This is probably a discussion for another thread though.
From what I understand you will be much better at a 1-1.4 OHM build, you will get more range from the device and better flavor. Who knows though I dont have my IPT yet lol.
I usually pm in these situations, but with the amount of bs about vendors and running a business in this thread... I will make another thread, if someone else doesn't. This thread is ef'd in the A. Someone started another thread, but first page has no pictures? Seriously? Lol The OP needs to be detailed..qorax needs one of these.lol
I would contribute that to a wicking issue... maybe even an airflow issue.
Post some pictures of your build.
The 32 was definitely wicking combined with high heat, i only had a tiny wick fed through a nano coil with no cloud underneath, with a mechanical it hit really well but not with higher wattage. I built a dual coil 28 gauge 1.1 and its working great, wicks are super long and I can hit it as long as I want without burning. One of the coils warped when I pulse fired it, but it'll work for tonight until I can spend some more time on it tomorrow. I'll start a thread and post pics, hopefully get some tips, what would be the right sub forum for this? I've only ever posted on this thread, besides the first 5
I ordered two batteries, SONY VTC5 and Efest IMR 2500 35A, Which one will provide me better battery life and which one is safer. I'm asking about the safety because I know the EFEST are rewraps of the 20A 18650HE2 with burst power of 35A but I havent found a def answer on the repercussions of that. One will be going to my wife, of course that will be the safer one if there is a safer one. Please no replies about how I need to educating myself on battery safety, I am well aware of battery chemistry now and the do's and dont's. Those replies are useless post count boasters at this point. I just want some opinions

Try a larger diameter when the wick is fed through the coil. I've settled on a 2-3mm Inner Diameter for my coils over this past year. I'm experimenting with larger diameters, now that I have a lot of regulated power at my disposal.
The revocable atomizer subforum in assorted pv topics. I use to live there
.The efest 35Amp is the lg 20 Amp continuous battery. The 30 Amp efest battery is a Sony vtc4.
You're completely fine with these batteries on the ipv2&3.. the sony's may handle 100 Watts better than the lg. If the sx330 v3 has a 30 Amps max input, you'll be in the burst rating of the sony pulling 30 Amps.

Thanks! Just out of precaution you don't think theres a safer one though from a technical standpoint? I have the 35A one

Ya I ended up both the dual coil 26 gauge 1.1 with a larger diameter, with the wicks fed through and very long. I am liking it at 37 watts, any higher and its just too hot.
Any thoughts on the Samsung 3200 30A ICR in the IPV2? I've read that ICRs can't go in the IPV2, Ive been rotating 1600 20A AW IMRs until I get a solid answer, I find it odd that people online say ICRs cant go in regulated mods, my B&M guy said the exact opposite.
I'll start a thread in the RBA section tomorrow, tonight its time for a little relaxation in town( I live in a cabin on a lake thats out of the way) have a good night everyone. My apologies for the short thread hijack.
Oh my gosh. I'm so glad the thread stopped being a skirmish about suppliers and all that. That got a little outta hand.
Might be better if we stick to a more product spec/performance/usage/issues thread?
Just IMO

From a technical standpoint:
Vaping is a burst/pulse function. Pulse ratings are fine to vape with, as long as you know what you're doing, and you don't discharge at those current levels for longer than 60seconds- which is what a burst usually is rated at(above continuous(20-lg or 3-0vtc&25r))
And specifically:
Mechanical- the vtc3-5 have 30Amp continuous, and the burst rating is supposedly 60 Amps, but I've read about people pushing over 100 Amps. I don't know if that's true or not..the vtc5s get much warmer than all the others, so I stay around the continuous rating.
Sum it up- the vtc's and 25r is the best cells to go above 30amps with.
Regulated- You're not going to exceed 20-30 Amps with an IPV.. You won't notice performance differences with either..
3200 mAh ICR? I thought the Samsung 25r was 2500mAh?
I'm about to purchase a Samsung 25r.. after I look up the Samsung 3200.. I have a new vtc5, vtc4, and mnke 22 Amp. I'm about to pop the vtc4 in.. $50 says I get less sagging than a vtc5.
-I LOVE the real time voltage detector.
I know, right? When it first started.. with the elev8vape bs, I tried to derail it with a post.Oh my gosh. I'm so glad the thread stopped being a skirmish about suppliers and all that. That got a little outta hand.

"I'm loving my touch sensor on my ipv2 I PREordered on July, 2 from elev8vape, and received on July, 28. *image*"
Lol
I'm going to start a new thread with a worthy OP for this mod...if someone doesn't do it this week.<<<lazy
.This thread started great..but between all the people that don't know what a preorder is, economics and china distribution 101, and arguments about who has the better theory on everything...ughhh
