The orange one is called a "Calabash" or "Gourd" mod, depending on what site you're looking at. It's basically a 650mAh mosfet board. It's actually not bad. It came with a Vivi Nova clone, that got tossed immediately (it was cracked anyway) and replaced with a Diver2. It performs quite well and is always good for a giggle.

The blue and white one? Really? You know not the legend of Bobo?

I took this picture of the kittens asleep on my lap last night. They're growing so fast, but still beyond adorable! Yes they are!

Get up to take a pee and they'll look at you like, "Hey :censored:, chill out. We're trying to get some sleep!"

Impressive! Have you cleaned and lubed your threads? Well, have you? How old are your batteries?
Clean as a whistle. The pair of 18350' were put in service on 3/26/15. They both give me the same IQ's. Even when loosening and retightening the cap. Been this way since Day One.

Interesting. I'm at 72% battery left on a AW 18490 and I'm getting a 90 for IQ at the moment. And the battery is likely about a year old.

All these batteries have their own internal resistance. I could buy a new set of 18350's and get 90 IQs. My 18490's generally yield a higher IQ. I've been in the 93 range on one set.

I've commented about this before, but my older AW18490 all provide a higher IQ than the newer gen-AW18490 I've more recently purchased. Why? I'd really like an answer to that, TBH.

The Samsung 25R I purchased with the P3 in June I keep in reserve for when I am mobile. The AW's I used with my V2's I am going to use up at home.

Anyway, I am getting ready to out in the world and got out the Samsung. When vaping on it before hitting the shower the IQ read 84 - Great. After shower it reads, 80 - good. Still @ 99%. No, I did not take it in the shower...

Btw, I performed maintenance on our P3's Wed.

I never check the IQ on my P3


Sent via iPhone

I shouldn't, cuz it always works great, regardless of the stupid number. But then I'm OCD and that means I am forced to check it. I used to check it all the time. I've at least gotten to the point where I only check it when I put a freshly charged battery in and as long as it's in the great range, I do forget about it.
