Lady Ash, I would be inclined to get a dedicated set (or two). I've always heard, buy together, charge together, use together....

Well, if battery A and battery B are married, and have an occasional fling with battery C with the consent of both, i don't see the harm. Now if battery C, then ends up with battery A OR battery B, yeah, could be trouble..

so much yum!

and thanks for the coils, Mark! came in today!
Glad you got them. I'm using the tf-rca now, 0.8 ohm single coil is a good zone for the power level I like. For the s6 you'll want to break out a car battery :)

Siriusly though, I think Ash CAN'T have more than 30 cycles on that pair? I think mooch might STILL approve. Wouldn't hurt to run a dozen or two cycles through the third batt by itself if possible though, just to even up their "experience".

Dr LeBoo - are you advocating willful battery philandery?

Not to beat this dead horse, but the distinction between a series run, vs a parallel, is a big one when it comes to using "unpaired" batteries. In series, they really just become for practical purposes, one battery, I believe. A battery with less "capacity" will simply, like water in 3 jugs joined by a hose at the bottom, "level" with the other two even with the mod turned off. The "switch" is at the end of the chain, and only stops power from flowing to the connector, not each other.

I'm SHOCKED you would turn this battery discussion into something reVOLTing. How do you plead to the charge?
not to dAMPen your enthusiasm, but let's stay CURRENT on WATT's important here - battery safety and fidelity hits close to OHM for all of us
