Really odd SB battery problem

[DaMulta]

2 x 3.7v 16340 ultrafire batteries

801 works
kr808d works
510 does not fire up nothing

2 x cr123a 3v lifep04 or 17335
801 works
kr808d works
510 works

batteries are charged, and I just don't understand why the two 3.7 batteries will not power the 510. Is the 510 pulling too many amps?

Try another 510 atty maybe? Its workin for me, just burns the juice up....May just be a sensitive atty.

I'm down to one atomzier for the 510


This is a yeti one, and it is only a week old or so.

well, i def wouldnt want it to fire up if its ur last atty, lol. I popped one vaping that high voltage!!! Maybe its a sign from the vapin gods that u need to savor that atty, lol!!!!

I tried using those in my my Chuck and the 1st time nothing. Tried again about a week later and they fired right up. Did it again an hour or so later and nothing. Sometimes they work, other times not so much.

yeah, I forgot abt protected batts---they are funny things. I love 6v vaping, but the batts safety trips way too much and drives me insane. Ive abt given up on having a steady 6v vape.....

Just a thought but it may be because the SB really isn't designed for 7.4 volts. If you want to vape at 6 volts wouldn't it make more sense to use the CR123 batters at 3 volts each. I would be very afraid of continualy pooping atomizers at 7.4 volts.

Again just a thought.....

i doubt its a wise idea to fire the low resistance 510 with upto 8.4V !! and thats what you get on fully charged cells
better be happy that the protected batteries stopped the atti to fire up.

I agree. 901's are bad enough with 2 cells fully charged. I'm supervised it still works at all.

Would these work with the SB to provide 6v? I'm a lil new to HV vaping, so just want to be sure!

Really? Is that so with nearly all protected batteries? No matter what the device?

It sucks if it is so.
