I recently bought a full mech l-rider and am using an aw 18650 the problem is im not getting much vapor from this device. I've used both kanger pro tanks three vivi novas an agr two dct's an aga t2 and a phoenix clone dripper atty all of wich rip on my zmax. The aga and phoenix are some what working but not doing any justice compared to being on my segelei. Since there's not much to this device I have no clue to what the issue is. Any help from anyone that owns one or can possibly suggest what the problem is would be huge. Thanks.

Pro tanks are 2.2&2.5 vivi's are 2.0 my dripping atty is1.6 the zmax is usually around 3.5-3.8 volt and 7.5-9 watts. I have a sweet spot ohm calculator app on my phone I use to stay in the safe zone. All these tanks work phenomenal on the zmax but the corolla makes very little to no vapor. I've used several batteries fresh off the charger all 18650 with flat top and post top protected and non protected. I have 3400mah Panasonic 18650's on the way from fast tech but I've tried 4 batteries and there doesn't seem to be a problem with them in my segelei. How would I check the power connections for volt loss?

    One of these little guys is your best friend when sorting out a mechanical mod.

    Yes that is what my expensive mech read under load when it arrived. It then took a little time in the think tank to figure out why it had that much voltage drop. I can assure you tho', there is always a reason if there is an excessive voltage loss. With mine I had to replace the spring in the switch. With yours .............?

    Hmmm, im still confused but thanks for the response. Im not even sure how I would check to see if my spring is faulty. What should it read on a fully charged 3400 mah 18650?

    At least 3.7 and up to 4.2. A good battery should be coming off the charger around 4.2. Your device will drop that voltage output slightly at the connector but not more than maybe .2-.3v
    Shouldn't even be that much on a high end mech.
