I have other thoughts Sha. But be sure that I almost never make the same mod when I make another run of it. The reason is that I always think new ways for it![]()

As a fellow Uk resident I can see Somos side of things. We Brits tend to be very cynical and the message may be seen by many to be cheesy/corny.
But, if you know Imeo and the way he works and thinks, the message is what it is. A sincere message from one person to another. Like Frank85 I think life's too short to worry about any connotations the message may bring. I'm currently supporting my wife as she battles a life threatening illness so believe me when I say I really couldn't care less what anyone thought about an engraving I have on a mod. If they're poking fun it's probably because they're jealous!
These are just my thoughts though. If there is anyone not happy with the engravings I'm sure an answer be found somehow.![]()
Well I hope I'm not losing sight of the thread or over stepping when I say my thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family.

18650 is my fav battery, although I have been meaning to find out where to get a decent 5v one.

IMR unprotected are what most people seem to use. As for stacking batteries, I tried using just an 18650 and that didn't do it for me (only pushing out 3.7v). I started stacking CR-123's, for a combined total of 6v. That lasted about a year. For the past 2 years (approximately) I have been stacking 18350's, for a combined total of 7.4v. I have read a lot of the nightmare stories about stacking and received the advice of "don't do it". I have not had any issues whatsoever (as long as you don't count the time that I passed out in the hospital bed after spinal surgery with my GGTS in my hand, it turned my ceramic dark brown and the batteries sort of...well, they died a horrific death).
But then again, I was also told to avoid Soju when I went to Korea (more nightmare stories). I didn't pay attention to them either. If I had, I don't think I would have had as much fun.
But, ultimately, it is up to you. Have fun with it.
I agree I really see no issue with stacking as long as both batteries are fully charged when inserted. But if you were to put one half dead and one fully charged I believe that is where the"danger" comes from.

I have been very curious about stacking batteries as well. If so many of my GG friends are saying its OK, well I think I am going to try it. I will get a couple cr123's and a couple extra 18350's! As far as SOJU goes...I stayed in Korea for TWO years, and had the time of my life!
