Ok, well since I don't have a game to watch anymore, I'll share a photo:

vvmod.jpg


This is my first hand made mod (first finished mod) a few guys over in the modding forum helped me get my wiring right.
Dual Carto, switchable via a rocker switch. One side is a Go-go thread, the other a 510.
It is variable voltage in incremental units of .1 from 3V all the way up to 9V.

The one on the left is a dual coil Go-go Carto in a tank and the one on the right is a 2.5ml Light up clearomizer.

This things rocks LOL.

(not for sale)

Eric, is that a permanent price now on the Stainless? Or is it a special for a while price?? (LOL... in other words, do I order now, or wait till paychecks start coming again :) )

Yes permanent price, as long as I can keep the quantity high. The reason the black are so low is due to being able to buy so many at a time. So as long as I sell a lot of them, they will stay at this price.

For the GGDCC I am trying believe me, I've everything short of flying over there and I am not getting responses.. they are paid for and should be shipping or shipped already :mad:

It really wouldn't be worth the price I'd have to charge you. Probably better to make a tutorial.
Honestly my time now is limited. Tonight I went to dinner with the family and now I'll be up until 1AM filling orders and I have a day job tomorrow at 6AM ACK!!

That particular mod took me about two hours to make. Not including the planning and time/expense of sourcing the proper parts. The Go-go side stopped working due to a poor solder connection so I still have that to fix :( But when it's working it's the BOMB! Just flip the switch, go to another flavor!

Believe me I'd LOVE to offer these things but the time factor.. just not there yet. If I wasn't working another job I could but right now I don't have enough sales to justify quitting just yet and I am not about to start charging what others charge for ecig stuff LOL

So how about you make the video and sell it as a kit... This would be the best of both worlds and I'm sure someone out there would be willing to assemble them for people that were mechanically challenged :). Just a thought.

Yep thinking about that, great idea.
I am waiting for some more parts for another mod I am doing and I will probably take pictures of each step to make a kit from. It's a super fun project and even if it doesn't come out 100% it's totally worth it.

I'll try to get it done soon.

.85 is 850, you should find one with at least 1000 or 1ma

That was the issue. I walked down to the corner electronics store and got their only 2ma USB charger. It was fun trying to explain to the Polish guy who runs it that I needed a charger that was at least 2ma for an electronic cigarette, then had to go into the whole explanation what an electronic cigarette was and then go into what a USB passthrough was. Anyway, finally found one, and the passthrough works fairly decent. It still doesn't seem to work as great as the standard GoGo battery, but still works fairly decent.

The 2ma wall charger also will power my hacked usb passthrough I made with an old GoGo battery. Again, just barely, it's not very strong. Could I take a wall charger that's 3ma or 4ma and just strip the wires to the USB cable? Or would that be too much? What's the ideal voltage/amps to power the GoGo like it's off a battery?

Not generally because it's only 500mA that comes off a USB port :(
I am lucky, I have a high end motherboard (cost me 300) and for some reason (I haven't investigated the specs) I can vape all day from my USB ports no matter what I plug in.

However, if I plug it into my son's computer I get nothing...

Just wondering when the Pina colada juice will be back in stock???

I am paying retail for all my liquid flavorings and I have asked many of the flavoring vendors for bulk pricing and with some of them it's a process that takes a while.
I am trying to make a profit and buying flavoring etc.. at retail doesn't allow me to do this. There is a reason all the liquid vendors charge on average about double what I do.

I am REALLY trying to save you guys money, but keeping every flavor in stock all the time while making no little to no profit is very hard. Big sellers like PC would seem to make me money but in fact it's the opposite because I have to invest a lot just to get enough.

Long story shorter... once I get my merchant status approved from the place I get one of the ingredients from I will be purchasing it and making some, should be any day.
I apologize for the wait on this one but I will get there :)

Couple of updates and request for help.

As you all know I am very upfront and honest with what I do, mostly because I feel you are all my friends rather than just customers. Recently the business has exploded, which is certainly a good thing, but it takes it's toll on stock. The Chinese vendors are NOT very punctual. they are extremely difficult to work with as far as on time shipments blah blah.

I am pretty sure I will be stocked on go-go items for most of the time they are on their ridiculous month long vacation but I just might run out of stock if they do not ship before the holiday starts.
With that in mind, I ask you to bear with me while I am out of items.

I have put in orders for white and green on the Colored Go-gos as well as the other standard colors, unfortunately I was told they will not be ready until after the holiday :( The stainless cartos should hold up, although I had a serious rush on them the last three days (500 sold), certainly didn't expect that LOL.

Also, if anyone has pause because I am stocking a lot of other items just know that this isn't really affecting my core Go-go purchases because I have found two vendors who are willing to sell me small runs of the ego/510 items, so I do not have to invest much in them. Plus there are a couple of other suppliers here in the US who I have been able to piggyback orders with.

:)

Product Update

The XL3
It has been brought to my attention that the XL3 has a few issues that I was not aware of and frankly I can believe I missed it.
If you are using a 18650 battery, the highest setting will not last very long as an 18650 is 3.7v but may come off the charger at 4.2, as you know 4.2 doesn't last very long and as it declines in voltage, so does the ability of the XL3 to keep it's highest voltage setting. This isn't a flaw, it's just by design as it doesn't have a step up converter in it.

However, if you use TWO CR123a batteries (2 x 3.7v) it'll actually give you one more (green) voltage choice...green is around 5V.
So if you want the higher voltage you need to use two CR213a'a

AWESOME.

Thanks goes to BBB for bringing this to my attention.

Request for help.

I have been banging my head against the wall to find a wholesale supplier of AW batteries. AW's are just the high end Panasonics wrapped in a label, they are "top shelf" so to speak. All I can find is retail and that doesn't help us.

If anyone can find me a decent non retail AW seller (doesn't matter where they are located) I will give you a few free batteries if I buy from them.
