PIF: Where can I get....

[cags]

thanks guys, now I don't know what I am looking for I saw something on the classifieds a while back, looked like a regular multimeter, but had a thing on it you could screw the atty into. husband has been (grumpily) checking my attys for me, but I was hoping for an easy something I could do...he doesn't love me using his tools ! I guess he's afraid I'll break something

I still use ego's and the slim joye 510s - so I know I am supposed to meter attys and maybe the batteries too.

thanks again - let me know any other ideas you might have!

Are you wanting to know the voltage that your battery is putting out, or the voltage under a load, or the resistance of your attys?

Aha. Does it go between the atty and battery so that both are hooked up at the same time? If so, and it has a display, it's a voltmeter that can measure the battery voltage (without atty attached) and the battery voltage under load (with the atty attached). I have seen them for sale before, but not for a long while--most are homemade.

If it is like an extension tube with leads coming out what it could measure is dependent on how it's made, and all of them I've seen were homemade.

If all you're doing is wanting to meter your equipment without using the hubby's tools, I would suggest Walmart, Lowe's or Harbour Freight and just get a $7 - $10 multimeter. It'll be your cheapest option, it will be more versatile than any of the "screw-in" options, and it is (in my opinion) easier to use. Several vendors carry them as well, so you can just add one to an order if you don't want to go out shopping...

originally the resistance of my attys...but the other info would be great too

the one I saw was a multimeter with a little box or something attached to the side where you screwed on the atty. I will take your advice and just go get my own multimeter and watch the classifieds to see if one ever comes back up there

thanks

Yes, that was homemade. I think I remember the one you're talking about--we have a couple of members here who make all sorts of neat toys. Sometimes they make their way into the classies...

Sounds like one of the meters that para made. Maybe he posted a how-to in the modding forum? Either way, coming across one of the few that exist is going to be tough, making one or finding someone to do so is your best bet

 

[cags]

thanks so much everyone, I'll pop over to the modding section and do a search for instructions, just in case

I have a couple questions

first, is there a cheap eGo type a rebuildable addy

and 2, where can I buy food grade PG/VG in a store, and what do I ask for?

Wizard Labs for your 2nd question. I haven't got a clue about the 1st question. Don't even know if there is such a thing.

 

[Killjoy1]

The only type A rebuildables I can think of offhand are the Bulli A2-T and the Mark-T, neither of which is really "cheap" . . .

 

[Penru]

ok, new question,

what is the diameter and lenght of an eGo c atomizer head?

PG can be purchased at tractor supply stores, and VG can be purchased at any drugstore or Walmart. I found VG at CVS in the skin care aisle marked simply glycerin ( yes, it has multiple uses).

Anyone know of a good deal on AW IMR 14500's and the respective charger?

Peas & tanks!

 

[markfm]

310vapers -- the xtar wp2 ii charger plus a spare pair of spacers will run $14.50, and shipping's reasonable. Set the switch on "1" for the smaller 14500 batteries (500 mA max charge current -- "2" is 1 amp, use it for large 18650 batteries). They also have AW IMR 14500, at $7.43.

rtd has a lower 14500 price, but their xtar charger costs noticeably more.

EBay has the best prices per mah if you do not mind waiting a month to get it from China ...

 

[Denny Krane]

The 14500s I got from Ebay didn't fit. (too big)

 

[Lorizgal]

I am looking for a quart or more of VG. maybe even a gallon, since it is all I use. I would like some place that won't gouge me with shipping and i have already done P&G.

 

[Denny Krane]

VG....http://www.essentialdepot.com/servlet/the-On-Special---dsh---FREE-SHIPPING/Categories....free shipping

 

[Killjoy1]

rtsvapes.com has a liter for $19, not sure what the shipping will run (they ship Priority flat rate, that one might require the "medium" box)

I also found this at a steal ($15 for a gallon right now), again don't know what the shipping is: http://www.essentialdepot.com/servlet/the-91/Glycerin-Vegetable-KOSHER-USP/Detail
