Enjoy Steve! Be sure and take lots of pics I'd like to see the place you talked about 
Higde...
Yeah, I've tried that. I can still smell juice in most of the boiled cartos.
Also, for anyone reading this: You gotta be careful not to overboil the cartomizers. It is very easy to damage a carto if you boil it too long.
I'll try boiling my big batch of cartomizers one more time, but frankly, I'm not hopeful. We'll see. It seems a shame to throw them away.
You would need a box big enough to fit (5) AA batteries, since there needs to be room for the switch, voltage regulator, atty connector, and PCB, and since you own one of my 5v already, you know that takes up a complete battery bay. This larger box could fit 4 14500's but that really is not efficient, and you would be better off using one of madvapes new 5 volt batteries that is the size of an 18650, at least I heard they were going to carry one.
A 14500 is only 900 mah and an 18650 is 2400! I vapes this thing for 24 hours solid on one battery charge! I just wish to box was a little smaller. I will be on the lookout for a better option, but the bettery lasts forever
