Slotted Batteries

[dohsma]

Speaking of batteries, I noticed there are hardly any autos on the website, and can't find the auto passthru without ordering the mini kit. I LOVE the Autos more than the manuals. I am allowed to vape at work, and use the passthru constantly either at work or home. Use the battery while driving. I get so busy at times I really like being able to pick it up and not have to worry about where the button is!

Please tell me you aren't phasing out the autos!!! Please! 8-o

No never! Steve still uses the autos more than anything else. We are just waiting for a restock on autos... hopefully next week.

im sorry to bring this thread back, but I just want to say, I have never seen the word "slotted" more times in one place. ever. in my life.
that is all.
EDIT: also, where are these slots located?
do you mean the little air holes?

is this what causes the poor draw on my extra long battery?
where's a tutorial on this "staple mod"?

nvm, found the tutorial, but my first question still stands.

Wow. I thought two of the 4 holes were plugged on purpose to cover a mistake in manufacturing. Opened them up and draw is much better. Thanks.

Could be. Is your cartomizer slotted? I have seen varying degrees of slot depth on my different cartomizers. Staple mod works fine in this case, but I usually just don't screw the carto on all the way and it increases the draw just fine. If you have some of the unslotted cartomizers, then the staple mod is a necessity with unslotted batteries.

If your cartos are slotted, then it might be a problem with the air holes on the battery. It is easy to widen the 2 or 4 holes on the battery with a dental pick or something else. 2 of the 4 holes on my pass through were ......ed or deformed which was remedied by working my dental pick in the hole. Gave me the draw I was looking for.
