oh btw - has anyone used the kick with 18490 battery on this ? if that fits then voltage drop wont ever be a problem
Man, I hate being the bearer of bad news on this one, but your 0.345" bit isn't going to work in the brass sleeve. The spring you sent measures a true 0.344", but the brass sleeve is only 0.389" OD. That would leave only 0.0225" of wall remaining on the brass sleeve.
The stock spring is 0.300".
Sorry Datalux! I had high hopes. Maybe you'll get it to work another way, but a smaller spring of smaller gauge would potentially work without modifying the brass sleeve. Since I've modded the iseason to use the sleeve for direct-battery contact, I'm hesitant to modify it by drilling, and there isn't enough room for this spring.
Is it the one for 5ml carto tanks? I have a couple of them but they dont look as nice with the igo, theres about a 0.5 mm difference in diameter. Kinda bugs me,
Well, that's what I get for jumping the gun.Thanks for checking though....
Guess I should have ordered this one like you originally said but it's $18 for a pack of 10![]()
Damnit chad - I knew u were a pluid man
Looks great - good photo
Ok new numbers -
With an IMR 18490 and NO spring - the rest of the device is 100% unmodified. All I did was take spring out and then the connection sleeve a half turn to make a connection -
Numbers jumped to 3.4 - 3.6 on a fully charged 18490 IMR.
Huge improvement but still not pushing advertised voltage .
I just got my iGo-L in, I'm a bit rusty with silica (and didn't feel up to mesh) but I finally got it running after a few bad builds. I haven't touched my Vamo since!
