Could be. I have had the same thing happen.I'd be willing to bet money on the spring loaded charger sled thingy. The pattern is very distinct and matches 100%
No, I don't really put them in the swamp. I put them in McDonalds green bins.^^^that man's insane..
As a beside.. I'm no tree hugger but I really hope batteries are not being thrown into the swamp..![]()

I used to run coils at ,2 or a little higher. I never cared for massive wires on mechanicals. I have tried simple claptons and they took too long to heat up for me. Simple single wire coils perform better in Mechs imo. He should get better battery life as well. .16 is pretty low, right at the edge for 25r's. Since it is new to him and doesn't know things that could signal trouble I wouldnt suggest it. I remember when cloud competitions with tube mechs were a big thing people were building .08 pipe bombs all the time...His battery is 25a..granted it'd not be pushing it for long but it'd be pushing it I would think..
however i did calculate in my head to be around 27a.. so my calculation was a little off, and I didn't figure in any voltage drop not knowing what it might be..
So, while it's not as bad as I was thinking I still see it as pushing the limits of safety.. but I definitely prefer safe.. the safer the better..
anyway.. dang on the 50a rating.. That would be nice..
@JamesDMad try taking your batteries out of the charger positive first and slowly releasing the spring tension to avoid such beauty marks on your batteries![]()
Oh, just trying to build a possom army over here...Been away a bit, and I know better than to try to catch up...
So what did I miss?
You really don’t want to use duct Tape a lot of it has metal in itI hope you duct taped it!
If you toss it, depending on color I may be interested in buying the doors. I have black & red.My DotSquonk is dead. R.I.P.
Autofire disaster, haven't taken it apart to figure out why yet, c'est la vie. May yet be repairable, but I have a gut feeling it won't be easy. Looks like a real PITA to get apart...
Exactly. It will sag even further than just to 4.0V though under that kind of load, that's why I said he's at about the CDR of his battery. In real world terms that is.
When calculating safety for a mech it's advised NOT to take battery sag into account but to calculate with the 4.2V, which would give you the 26.25A and indicate that you might want to change your build.
Mooch is on record saying that CDR shouldn't be the build target on a mech, it should be seen as a red line not as an everyday vape comfort zone.

I should have put aI've never heard of that til now (i did google it though).. are you sure they are authorising batteries to be placed in there? Just curious on that...

We actually have a customer who salvages 18650's from old laptop packs and he takes all the old/bad 18650's. He has been warned about how dangerous this is, but you can't tell a Heinz Pickle nuthin'.
This recapped did not come off as that fair and balanced... Do you work for Fox News?Thread summary. Today was slow...
We began the day discussing the joys of sweetening and enhancing tobacco flavors.
SB found that 9 hours worth of breathing just wasn't enough to satisfy - thank goodness
And the jury is still out on whether or not hangsen Australian chocolate is any good and enquiring minds do still want to know.
We discussed the pleasures of being hit in the throat and how to avoid that particular unpleasantly in the freebase nicotine category...
And of course how to avoid making pipe bombs for the newly initiated, whether or not Alex Jones is particularly sane (because picking on SB is not envogue atm) and what a lovely coil everyone who is not SB makes..
Of course there is a therion 75c (lightly used and immaculate condition) nearly up for grabs that we are drooling over..
And I don't know. . It's just a light day, none of us girls took anything off and the boys are still hopeful..
