Need backup suggestions

[Surfer369]

I just got the uwell Nunchaku based on a forum members suggestion @Susaz, and the flavor is amazing.

I like it so much that I am thinking of getting another tank of the same.
I also want to add a fe more tanks so that I can keep it prefilled with different flavors.
So what else will come close or even do better than this tank, i doubt I will even know. I am getting great flavor.

Should I stock up on coils, I thin i an using the 0.25 preinstalled coils and vaping at 45watts.

Thinking of also adding the innoking proton mod, but can't seem to find it, will wait for that. I want to make sure that the tanks are compatible with the mods.

I also want to add a third or fourth smaller Mod (internal battery preferably) and tank combo, not sure if there are any great tanks but in smaller size/capacity.

So far I have:
1. Uwell starter kit

I want to add:
1 or more uwelll nanchaku tanks
Freemax fireluke mesh pro

what else?

Also, what batteries will I need for the Innokin proton?

 

[bombastinator]

Any tank with a 510 connector, which is basically all of them, will fit on your nunchaku so basically pick anything you like

I can’t help you with suggestions because I haven’t used any new factory coil tanks. However I can help in other ways. With batteries, stick with LG, Samsung, Sanyo, or Sony, that way you know it isnt a rewrap. Imrbatteries, 18650batterystore, orbtronic are a few places to buy batteries because you definitely want to get it from a reputable vendor to assure you won’t get fakes. Someone will come along with mooch’s battery chart to help you pick a battery. Mooch is our battery expert, he tests all the batteries and chargers now to keep us safe. He’s a saint. Good luck and I hope that helps

When choosing batteries for any regulated mod, the highest wattage setting that you will use determines what amp batteries you should use. Even if you use a 200 watt mod, you won't need a 30 amp battery if you never vape over 30 watts. The extra mAh's you can get with a 15 amp battery will allow you to vape longer per charge.

WATTAGE PER SINGLE BATTERY on REGULATED MOD:
(Total wattage doubles using 2 batteries; Triples using 3 batteries.)

Up to 45W:

Samsung 18650 30Q, 3000 mah 15 amp CDR

Sony 18650VTC6 3000mAh 15 amp CDR

Up to 60W:

LG 18650HG2 3000mah 20 amp CDR

LG 18650HE4 2500 mah 20 amp CDR

Samsung 18650-25R, 2500 mah 20 amp CDR

Sanyo UR18650NSX, 2500 mah 20 amp CDR

Sony 18650VTC5, 2600 mah 20 amp CDR

Sony 18650VTC4, 2100 mah 23 amp CDR

Up to 75W:

LG 18650 HD4 2100 mah 25 amp CDR

LG 18650 HD2 2000 mah 25 amp CDR

Samsung 18650-24S, 2500 mah 25 amp CDR

Sony 18650VTC5A, 2500 mah 25 amp CDR

Up to 90W:

LG18650HB6 1500mah 30 amp CDR

LG18650HB2 1500mAh 30 amp CDR

LG18650HB4 1500mAh 30 amp CDR

Samsung 18650-20S 2000mah 30 amp CDR

-If you use a good quality 15 amp CDR battery like the Samsung 30Q or Sony VTC6, then you are good up to 45 watts per battery; 90 watts using two; 135 watts for three batteries.

-If you use a good quality 20 amp CDR battery like the LG HG2 or Samsung 25R then you are good for 60 watts per battery. If using a 2-battery regulated mod, you're good for 120 watts as you have two batteries. If you are using a 3-battery mod, you're good for 180.

-If you use a single 25 amp CDR battery like the Sony VTC5A, then you are good for 75 watts per battery, 150 watts for two batteries, and 225 watts with three.

-If you use a single 30 amp CDR battery like the LG HB6 you are good up to 90 watts; with a pair of 30 amp CDR batteries you could safely do 180 watts.

So if I do vape at lets says 45 watts, is there any reason not to get the LG HB6 30amp CDR?

What do most of you use? Do you keep a variety of different amp batteries or different brands.

@madstabber i found vapecralwer helpful and so far have added a few things in my fasttech cart. Although some prices on us online stores are better they don’t have the various color choices or options that I saw on fasttech. Hoping their shipping is fast too.
Found a 20 pack coils for my nanchaku which I don’t even see on the us online stores.

What’s the difference between the 0.25 ohms coils vs the 0.4ohms?

 

[Eskie]

It's a balance. Higher CDR, lower mAh and less runtime. At 45W any 20A or 25A battery is more than sufficient. That will give you ~2,500 mAh on most. 30A LG batteries will only give you 1,500 mAh. There is that new Samsung 20S rated to 2,000 mAh but still unnecessary for the wattage you're talking about.

Always use the word "authentic" when shopping on FT. If you order 5 full packs of coils you get an added discount (applied for you in cart, no code needed). This weekend coupon code AUTUMN is good for 10% off sitewide.

More mAh (capacity) = longer run time.
More amps = more powerful battery for more wattage output.

If you never vape over 45 watts, I'd say use a 20 amp battery (up to 60 watts per battery) on a single battery mod. Using a 15 amp battery (up to 45 watts) would be pushing the battery a little too hard vaping at 45 watts.

The LG HB6 30 amp battery only has 1500 mah, so it won't last very long. A 20 amp battery will have 2100 to 3000 mah depending upon which model you use; more mAh capacity to last longer during use.

Using two batteries doubles the wattage output, and increases the capacity capability. Using three batteries triples the wattage output, etc, etc.

Personally, I vape 30 watts on a 75 watt single battery mod. The Samsung 30Q 15 amp 3000 mAh battery (up to 45 watts) lasts me nearly an entire day before it needs to be replaced.

Lg hg2 will give you the longest charge time of the 20 amp batteries, good up to 60 watts, though 60 would be pushing it. If you want the possibility of a little more than 60 watts, the Sony VTC5a is a 25 amp batt with 2500 mah, good run time.
Only reason not to go higher in amps (I think this was said already, but hey) is that the 30 amp batts all have shorter run times, will need recharged quicker.

Yes I saw the word authentic in my search and those are the products I am interested in and thanks for the code.

Wasn’t there some statement from Sony recalling batteries through amazon or something.

So, for my usage, even if I am using a mod with two 18650 batteries I have to keep the amp and mah in mind. Since I am finding that I am vaping in the 40-50 watt range, the lg hg2 should be ok for me.

When you say longest change time, what are talking here a full day with full day vaping. For eg. I charged my battery yesterday to full and then played a bit with wattage and the settles at 45watts and by the time I was done I was two bars down. I thought that went down pretty fast.

I think the freemax mesh pro is a good choice. I have both the fireluke mesh and the mesh pro, both are good but the pro is my favorite.

I got a Proton recently and I have to say I'm really impressed with the battery life so far, and it is (currently I could never abandon it forever) replacing the Tesla Steampunk nano, another mod with a pretty good power conversion ability as well. While I haven't dropped it yet (famous last words) well, it is holding up quite fine, it's comfortable, ergonomic, and just plain all around nice. It's also not heavy at all and pretty ergonomic I was not sure about the squishy fire bar at first but I actually really like it.

It's a nice mod. The only worry I have is dropping it wrong and having the adjustment button snap off or something, although it is also slightly recessed. TC is decent if you ask me, but I'm not like a TC "aficionado" or anything. But it is a very nice mod and yes, whatever you get (as long as it has a 510 connection which you would actually have to work HARD these days to not get) and supports the diameter of the tank you want to use (and there are certainly folks who don't mind a little overhang either) you should be fine on mods. Really, the issue is going to be narrowing it down to which mod you actually WANT and etc.

Don't think the proton's coming out of my rotation any time soon though....

The lg hg2’s are good batteries and will work well for your vape style. I haven’t heard about a Sony recall from amazon but I wouldn’t recommend buying batteries from Amazon because the chance of fakes is high. I use the Sony vtc6’s and Samsung 30q’s as well as the lg’s And vape in the same wattage range as you. All three last about the same so I just buy the ones that are cheapest at the time of my purchase. Imrbatteries is another good battery vendor. Also i haven’t seen this mentioned but you want a good charger as well. If you don’t have one the same place you get batteries will be a good place to purchase. I have bought chargers from amazon because they aren’t faked like batteries are. Xtar makes good chargers and my current charger the miboxer c4-12 bought on amazon for around $40 is a great charger capable of charging 3amps across 4-bays which is good for the 21700’s and 26650’s but a bit excessive for an 18650. But you can lower the charge rate for the 18650’s of course and there is a good charge rate for any liion battery you have. Just a thought but there are lots of good chargers. Here is a good site to check reviews Round cell charger index
Best of luck

Charge time, I'm only going to say how mine last, dual 18650 in a Smoant Cylon, lg hg2s, I am currently using a dual coil rta with resistance of 0.25, at 77 watts. I get a full days use on 2 pairs of batts. Sony vtc5A goes a little quicker, could need a third set. Samsung 25r's I would definitely need three pairs in a full day. Those are normal days, with or without a work period where I can't vape. If I was just sitting around the house all day and really vaping down, I could go through 3 pairs of HG2's and about 30 ml of juice, no problem. That's going to happen tomorrow, I think. Birthday Weekend with extra days off!! Woot. Woot indeed.

 

[uthinkofsomething]

And I would like to stress something said above:
Don't buy batteries from amazon.

^This man^ knows his stuff. Also Happy Birthday weekend, I hope the vape fairy brought you some shiny new gear for your big day. All I got you was a woot woot. Enjoy

"Many".

 

[Surfer369]

No, I am not planning to buy batteries from amazon, I just made a statement about what amazon on behalf of sony was sending some emails about their batteries etc.

I am not sure if my batteries are working as designed or I am doing something wrong.
I put in a fully charged battery in my well nunchaku and could basely get 3 hours before it went down from fully charge to the lowest bar. vaped at 40-45watts, chain vaped a couple times, also what was odd was, when I keep it down, it had two bars, and i did not turn off the unit, I thought it auto shuts off, when I went to turn it off after an hour, it was still on and it went from 2 bars to 1.

I have hera people say it last them at least a day, I am not seeing that performance, why?

 

[Topwater Elvis]

Battery life depends on amount of use, for a single cell power device 3 hours may be typical at 40 ish w.
Again depending on usage, at a few hit per hour probably will last a day ( however you define a day 8~24 hrs. )
At 40ish w a couple dozen hits per hour to chain vaping 3 hours is good between recharge cycle battery life/run time from a single cell.
Battery run time ( amount of time fire button is pressed & held ) is measured in minutes.

Keep on vaping until your power device hits the low voltage cutoff & refuses to fire.
Then recharge cell.

This is why dual & triple cell power devices are popular.
