Little itty bitty mods under $100.

Thanks, Kent. Should I keep the wattage low with that battery? If so, how low? (Just in case I get tempted to try higher.)

Katya answers would be the same as mine. Low watts no problem, all good if you want to go higher. More mAh the better in this case. Nitecore - their newer versions UM and D have screens, which is not needed, so the i2 is good. Same good internals.

You're on a roll, nic!

Is somebody having a sale?

Some that've been mentioned in this thread, but I'm getting indecisive about which one or two. I'll post and ask more, if I can't make up my mind.

 

[nicnik]

Nope, not for the parameters you've said.

In general, the higher mAh the lower the CDR. CDR is the important thing to watch for high power vaping. But for tootling and womping, not such a concern. So more mAh for longer time between charges may be more desireable.

As a confirmed tootler, I tend to go for the highest mAh cells I can get from reputable makers.

What's CDR, and does high wattage vaping need high or low CDR?

 

[nicnik]

More mAh the better in this case.

Which case? High or low wattage vaping? Or?

 

[DavidOck]

CDR is Continuous Discharge Rate, and is a measure of how many amps the battery can deliver over time. As in, for our purposes, how long you hold the fire button. High wattage needs a high(er) CDR than low wattage.

As Kent says, for low to mid power levels, higher mAh the better. Since you'll not be coming close the the CDR, might as well enjoy the less frequent charging

 

[Kent C]

Which case? High or low wattage vaping? Or?

Both in this case. The LG HG2 is really good for both - first one for high wattage with more mAh though - so that's nice. But I vape around 8.5-12W so good for low watt as well.

I'm gonna buy a Provari mini listed with the weekly specials. Not sure if I should get the original beveled top cap, or pay $20 more for the P3 top cap.

 

[nicnik]

It's got a box for a coupon code. Is there a Provape coupon I could use?

Can't help you--I only own a mini 2.5.

I don't know of any coupons, but ProVape has been having a lot of 10% off sitewide sales lately. I get emails from them. If you want to wait, I can let you know when/if they have another one.

It's a mini 2.5. Which cap do you have?

Thanks, but I don't want to risk them selling out before that.

 

[Katya]

The old tapered one. When I bought mine, they were all tapered.

Thanks, Katya! That's what I'll get...

If you need a wider base (for wider atties), you could try their beauty ring. It spins a bit, but will improve the aesthetics. I hate gaps, personally, so I've been using only narrower atties on mine--up to 19mm in diameter.

Get the standard top cap. Getting the P3 top cap will force you into getting P3 atomizers. I've got a mini with Nautilus mini sitting on top of it and I've got a 2.5 with a Taifun GS2 sitting on top of it. Both are 19 millimeter atomizers. They look sweet! The Nautilus mini can be rebuilt using one of the TTVF RBA heads.

Shawn, you mean that by getting the P3 top cap one would be able, be teased into, be seduced by getting P3 attIES. You can use any 510 topper on the flat (P3) top cap.

nic, I have both, and like them both, but there IS something just marvelously classic about the slant top. As Katya said, you can always (welp, now) get a tank ring to smooth out the angles and get that oh so popular flush look.

Thanks! Do you know what their capacity is? 800 mAh (and 1,200 mAh, really) is a drag. Even with my style of vaping.

Sorry, Katyaya, I do not know for sure, but if the pic I'm looking at is correct, it's 700 mAh. Sowwy.

You talk to Mooch too?!?! Who don't you know?[emoji57][emoji15][emoji848]

ahahahahahhahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaa!

I don't KNOW who I don't know!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's a story that's been told before, but...

A friend of mine named @Katdarling once told me, around the time of Bill Clinton's 2nd inauguration, "You know, President Clinton and I are buddies."

I said, "Sure you are."

He said, "No, really! Just turn on your TV tonight to the Inaugural Ball. You'll see me."

Sure enough, I turned on the TV that night, and there was Kat, talking to President Clinton with her arm around the guy.

Not long after, I was talking to Kat about how much I admired Johnny Depp as an actor. Kat said, "Oh, he's a good friend."

I said, "Noooo!"

Kat said, "Let's hop in my car". She drove me to the bar Johnny Depp owns, and as we sipped drinks,

Johnny happened to walk by, immediately exclaimed "Kat!" and fell into Kat's arms.

This was getting spooky. Kat seemed to know everyone! I tested Kat with a few more people. We were back in the Bay Area. Kat was telling me she was buddy-buddy with Jerry Brown. We went to a Press Conference at Oakland City Hall, and just before Brown started answering questions, he said "I see my friend Kat out there."

Same kind of thing happened when we went to Bob Dylan's house and rang the bell. Bob answered the door, said "Kat!" gave my friend a big hug, and invited us in for drinks.

I was becoming a believer, but then one day we were having another conversation and Kat said something about "my friend the Pope."

I said, "You can't know him, too!" Kat said, "Wanna bet?"

Kat happens to be very well off, so she flew the both of us to Rome. We took a cab to St. Peters Square. We were standing in the big crowd below the balcony of the Pope's apartment. Kat said, "Excuse me for a little while" and disappeared into the crowd.

A little while after that, John Paul appeared on the balcony and started blessing people. And who should be up there beside him but...you guessed it!

I was utterly amazed! I nudged a fellow standing next to me, pointed to the balcony, and said, "Look!"

The guy shaded his eyes with his palm, peered up at the balcony, turned back to me, and said, "Who's that guy up there with Kat?"

Seriously cracking up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL and a few

But dahling!!!!!!!!!!!! Jer-Jer? Ya couldn't have said AHNOLD?

Hilarious!

That's it. Avi changing time, right neow!!!!!!

Yikes. Oh, well. I wish someone would make smaller batteries with more capacity. TY

 

[VapingTurtle]

That's it. Avi changing time, right neow!!!!!!

Nice avi ya got there, Wheelie!

I've got a mini with Nautilus mini sitting on top of it and I've got a 2.5 with a Taifun GS2 sitting on top of it. Both are 19 millimeter atomizers.

Another good option at 19mm is the (relatively) new Kayfun Mini v3. Good quality clones of it widely available, too.

Soon to be available...

Well, soon like in 2026 or so.

Thanks, @fourthrok (just by the way).
