A couple weeks ago i fried pcb of ego-t pass thru 1100mah baterry.:facepalm: This baterry is knock off. And i start looking for some mods what to build. So, i find on ebay 5.2v 3A boost up pcb only for 6.70$.ViewPicture.aspx.jpg
And it works perfect!!! I'm vaping with CE4+ clearomizer 2.5ohm and it's realy nice vapor,flavor and very slight TH. Ok, lets' go back to my mod. So, what i discover about that ego baterry was realy surprising. If we can believe to these digits on the baterry than it coms that in reality baterry is 3300mah and not 1100mah.Picture 004.jpg
Thats a big difference. And with this boost up pcb i vape all day on 5.2v! It's realy nice! and one more thing, i go thru about 5-6ml per day.
P.S. sorry about my english :blush:

You are going to be pushing that little battery past it's rated specs. When the battery gets down to 3 volts and is boosting to 5 volts your going to looking at about a 4 amp drain off the battery. the rated MAX drain on those 13600 batteries is 2C so in amps that 1.8 amps. You might be tempting fate putting that mod up to your face

If so, that means that baterry should be hot. But my baterry never is geting hot.

well it for sure will get hot if it goes terminal. Really the most likely thing that's going to happen(not saying it wont blow up in your face ), is the battery is going to die very quickly. Your not going to get close to the 500 cycles. Also the more it gets used the more likely it is that it can go terminal. With every charge cycle these batteries get a little bit weaker. Which ever way you look at it, It is not a good idea to push a battery rated at a max discharge of 1.8 amps to almost 4 amps discharge. It just isn't safe, they put the ratings on batteries for a reason. Personally i would not run that booster off a battery unless it had at least a max discharge of 6 amps. Basically what i am saying is dont fool yourself into thinking it is safe because it is not getting hot.

I just checkt with multimeter amps, on battery when i using 2.5ohm clearomizer with fully charged battery..... it shows 3.2 amps. Yeah.... u r right. Its not safe. Tnx for warning me.
