Kr808d1 automatic battery turned into a semi manual

[Wormwood]

Check this out. I was messing around and slipped one of the cartomizer condoms on the end of my battery (was trying to get more of a distinguished glow so i could tell the battery was working) and the cig activated! HAHA now i dont have to suck like crazy to get an intense vape! To me its just as good as having a manual button.

Wondering if i mess with it a little more maybe i could make a condom i only have to put my finger over, though this is enough for me at the moment.

Just tried this with my other battery, which is matte black, and i get the opposite effect. weird, but the one that is pictured is black with white stripes on it.

I found rubbing a magnet along the battery has the same effect and the vapor has one hell of a kick to it too. Don't know if it damages the battery or not though...

I just gave it a go on my V4L batteries and it worked like a charm. Bonus, you get almost the same hit that a passthrough gives. Word of warning, put the cap on very shallow (only about 1/4 inch is needed) or you will end up maniacally scrambling to get it off! Ask me how I know...LOL!

What does putting the rubber carto thing on the bat do? I dont get it.

 

[Johnny Blaze]

What exactly does he Cart condom do? Is it so that you can share your e-cig with others?

Oh come on people, where were you when they were teaching safe vaping in school? Sharing your vaporizer with multiple partners with no protection is just playing with a loaded gun! That's part of what is wrong with kids today, the parents expect the schools to teach it all. Always use a cart condom when vaping.

 

[superace007]

idk... so the churches stance on this would be that even protected vaping is wrong until your committed???
i'm more of an open relationship vaper... just get it on w/ whatevs handy....
lol, nice spin snarkyone

 

[keyzygirl]

The vacuum switch inside the battery actually uses a small diaphragm with a magnet attached to it. This magnet comes in proximity to an electrical device called a "Hall Effect Switch" that turns on the power.

Soooo... yeah, by putting a magnet on the outside of your battery/cartomizer and orienting it properly, you should be able to turn it on!

This trick only seems to work with batteries that are ULTRA sensitive... I have a kr8081d with auto long batteries and this trick does not work and does have the opposite effect, my batteries are stamped bloew the threads on the inside as having been made in 08-2009 so they are new batteries must be a better design because I can bang them against my fingers, blow on them hard, blare loud music and nothing sets them off except when you are actually using them to vape. This is a plus to me as no worries of burnt out atomizers or fires in your pocket!!!

 

[Monkey Arms]

WOW, it actually works. Has anyone determined whether or not it damages the battery, or drains it faster?

 

[Monkey Arms]

Hello, is there anybody there?

 

[Snarkyone]

It won't damage your batteries but it will drain them. As for having the opposite effect that means it's different version battery. I forget what is what version but on one version putting the condom on the end will turn it on and on the other it won't. Be careful on how tight you tighten the two pieces together as well. I know we need them tight to increase the draw but if you have it too tight it will stay on when you are done sucking on the tip.

I loved the KR808D-1 and now I am bouncing off the walls waiting for my GreenCig to arrive which should be today since it wasn't here yesterday.

You are forcing the air in the condom over the switch just as if you were sucking it through. It won't stay on.
If you want the glow effect, you will have to put holes in the condom adjacent the holes in the ash tip.

Incorrect. The switch is a diaphragm switch that reacts to pressure, not flow.

 

[P3rplexity]

great hits off using this but my nebula battery drained verrrrry quick.

 

[ALUCARD]

Doesn't work for me. I can squeeze the end cap and it will come on for a split second, but doesn't come on just by placing the cap on. Kind of glad it doesn't by the way.
