Sigelei zmax v3 telescopic flat top?

[bigpman]

Just ordered mine too, with 18350 batteries. Going to give this a go as a replacement to my 900mah Twists. Almost a year of use out of my Twists and one just went bad.

I'll post an update, once I get it and get to play with my new toy

I love my sigelei V2s I have 1 not kanger friendly polished with a crooked screen. (Payed $30 for it due to both defects) I also have 2 V2 with the brushed finish and kanger friendly. I love these so much, i bought the 2nd to keep in reserve to replace my main unit with if something should happen. Now that the weather is starting to get warm, I have had an issue. Its so hard to carry my sigelei without a coat. This past week, I have switched to my vamo in 18350 mode. tucks in my work pants with no problems. I really like my vamos too so dont take this wrong.. They just feel cheap compared to my Sigelei's. I so want to order the v3 to run in 18350 mode always, but have been holding back. I'm already more than a month away from my break even point and starting to wonder if that break even is ever going to be truely possible.

I would say that the V3 telescope in 18350 mode would be a great choice to solve your problem... whatever my newb opinion is worth. I think I would rather break even and enjoy the health benefits and fun that a vape offers than be spending the money on analogs... just my 2 cents.

Igo-L "Rebuildable Dripping Atomizer" on the ZMax V3 18350 mode, slowly becoming my out & about setup ...

ZMax V3 18650 mode, great aound the house.

I was always curious how often you have to add fluid on a drip set up throughout a day? and do they leak?

very good choice!

***

I go through about 2-1/2ml, maybe closer to 3ml of juice, dripping 8 - 10 drops or so during breaks.

They do leak, any excess juice in the atomizer will seep out through the air hole, if it's not standing close to up right.

Just have to be careful

On a side note I received my sample pack from roar vapes (rawr vapes) and put some of the 12mg "strapple" flavor into a new tank and carto and I must say the quality of flavor from this juice is very nice! I'll update maybe on a different thread as I try all the flavors. 6 5ml bottles of mixed flavor for 18 bucks shipped! Can't beat that

Wow, ordered my v3, from Discount Vapers, on the 9th and it's scheduled for delivery tomorrow. I love DV!

Hope the mailman comes on time so I can charge the batteries by the time I leave work. ..

I too ordered the ZMAX tele. from ElectronicStix last night around 10 pm and got the email this afternoon it's on its way
I can hardly wait!!!

Let us know how you like it.

Figured out my problem with the 18350 I guess I smashed the spring a bit running the 18650 and it wasn't making good contact with the shorter battery. I stretched out the spring at the bottom a bit and reassembled it and it works perfect now. Boy do I feel stupid

I use my sigmax more then my zmax (zmax still kickz). sigmax feels like its solidly built and no issues yet using it for about a month.

I'm glad you figured out the problem so easily. Talk about feeling stupid...I got my Kanger ProTank today and was having a fit trying to get it to work. I couldn't get the dang bottom to tighten down all the way, so it wouldn't make contact to fire up. I finally figured out that I had to screw the head into the bottom before screwing the bottom on. Duh! Works like a champ now. lol

Got my hands on the V3 just now and I am quite pleased with the size of it. I was actually expecting it to be ticker and longer. With a T3, this thing is shorter than my 900mah Twist with a T3 (not by much, but it is).

The menu system was easy to get used to and it hits great at 7 watts.

One question for anyone who has theirs already. The description for the v3 stated that it can show resistance, I cannot figure out how to do that.

It said:

Press 7 times to get into 5 : show voltage or power ,and resistance

5 only allows me to change between VV or VW, no mention of resistance in there..

Does anyone know how or can it not show resistance?

Thanks for anyone willing to help

I have also been trying to figure this out. I will let you know if I do.

EDIT: I figured out how to view resistance, under the menu option "LCD Display" (menu #5) there are 3 options: voltage (or power if you're in that mode), battery, and resistance. select resistance and let it set that option in and then next time you fire the unit it will display the resistance on the screen. hope that helped!

How solid feeling is that threaded battery tube? Does it wobble a bit or does it feel solid? Any problems with it loosening up between battery charges? What is the measured length with 18650 installed (base to top of 510 connector)? Actually, I may want to use one with 18490/18500 but I can subtract the size difference to figure this length out. Info will be appreciated as I'm considering the Sigelei Telescope. I could wait for a Sigelei Zmax mini if that ever comes out.

The zmax can display the resistance of whatever device is attached to it, this will be displayed whenever the fire button is pressed.

- ZMax is on
- click 3 times to get into the menu system
- click 4 time to get " #5 - LCD Display " ... default setting is voltage, click it once, it will display resistance.
- wait a few for the to go dark
- press the fire button
- you should see the resistance value of the attached device on the screen now.

You rock! That's what I was looking for. I can now see the resistance of my clearo

This was important because I want to start rebuilding my T3 bottoms and save some cash.

I am using it with 18350 and do not own any 18650s, so not sure how it is in the longer form. Another member may be able to answer you better.

If you extend the telescope, without a battery, there is a little wobble and rattle. This may go away with a battery in there giving some resistance from the bottom cap.
