I was letting those that have a terminator know in case anyone needs extra ceramics and doesn't want to pay 5 bucks for em from the other vendor. Eric said he's not gonna carry them because of the outrageous price from china.

I've just been told to not post about other vendors on other vendors threads. No worries.
 
Hey Eric ,
these bats say 18490 but in the description they say 18350 do you know which ones they are ?Need some 18490's Thanks
Efest IMR 1100mAh 3.7v 18490 Battery - Button Top

The description says that it is an 18490 now in the 18350 size. An 18490 that also works as an 18350. So my interpretation is that the battery is an 18490 that also works where an 18350 is normally used. Now, if I have it right WE ARE ALL NOT JUST CONFUSED, JUST DUMBFOUNDED!! Why is there an 18490 that is also an 18350 and not just and 18350 or an 18490. Maybe that's why there are no true left or right foot socks, just SOCKS. OH MY

The second set of numbers in the battery number ("350" and "490") refer to the length of the battery. The "18" is the width.

Therefore, it is impossible for an 18490 to function as a 18350.

There could be a case where you could use an 18490 in place of an 18350 IF the spring would compress enough to accommodate the additional 140 mm.

This is where a telescoping mod comes in handy!

I got two 18350 batteries in a pif a while back. They are higher mah than the 700 mah batteries I already had.... They were clearly marked 18350, BUT they are longer! The body is longer, it is not from a nipple top, the body is definitely longer.... Different brand, too....

I only have 1.5ml left of haze :(

And I just loaded the last of my Jamie's Select Apple into the DV CE5!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We're reaching a major crisis here, and there's only one person that can rescue us.

I sure hope Eric gets some Nic, even if he has to up the price.

My AW 700 mAh 18350s (Button TOp) measure 352 mm. I have some IMR 800 mAh "18350s" that measure 364 mm. Since they are IMR, there should not be a protection circuit causing the increased length. The Efest 800 mAh V2 18350s measure 360 mm.

So, the conclusion is that the consistency of the 18350 batteries is about that of baby poop.

Oh yeah, :evil: What about the 18490's. BWAH ha ha ha. At first I thought that maybe me1969 just mis-read the description, then when I read it myself, first I wanted to apologize for even thinking it, then I wanted to call my old professor. Come on they are batteries! It's not rocket surgery! EVERY battery model I have comes in a variety of sizes. I have a tackle box full to prove it. The scary part is how thick they are varies. Diameter, girth, circumfrence(france) (I kannt spell thet won) whatever, every which way, the sizes vary. Fopr sure the consistency of baby mustard.:shock:

ME1969 you might try the 18500 to replace the 18490. For the most part they are interchangeable with each other. As for the description on site I don't know! Here are the comparison pictures,

Batteries:

Sorry about the screwup, I have fixed them, two batteries had some wrong numbers due to a copy/paste screwup on my part.
I have the correct diameters, height and other info now.

No one battery fits any other size, they have not changed, it was just me :(

Cut/Paste isn't always your friend :D. I've done that with my programming code, and ended up with weird computer errors. :)

Liquids:

Our nic supplier is on "vacation" (not wizard) and is not currently shipping (I thought he was going to ship last week but didn't), we had such a run on the last two orders.

I am afraid it's going to be off and on like this for a while for two reasons.

1. Getting the pure stuff is prohibitively expensive for shipping the hazardous materials and I can only buy so much at a time.
2. Liquids are keeping us up all night, no joke.

The last couple of times we put them online our day went from 14-16 hours to 18-20 and that is not sustainable.
I am trying to figure out a way to get this stuff premade instead of on demand, this way I can do them all on say a Sunday and have enough for a week. The problem with this is obviously I will not be able to make everything for everyone.

it's a conundrum. I was going to premake some today but I woke up to about 85 emails to answer and by the time I was done, it was order packing time and in a few hours I am going to be selfish and watch the superbowl :)


The last time I opened it up, the first two days we had more liquid sales than the previous entire month combined. I am not sure what is up with that but it is crazy, I didn't think it was that high but I looked at the numbers last night and was floored. We obviously profit on liquids and it hurts not to have it but the sheer effort it takes stresses us out.

I don't really know what to do.

I am trying to figure out a solution for when we get the nic back in, honest.
But I can tell you I am slightly enjoying the shorter days. :oops: or I would just say the heck with it and order nic from Wizard.
