did you have a blizzard, bear? ;) good thing they didn't DARE to do this on your birthday! :D

They DID do it on my birthday. Just minutes before I left to go over to Dad's on the 24th... *poof* went the connection... about 15h10. Did not come back on until just after 21h00 yesterday.

But... I had fun with the Tech Support guy and the "Customer Care" gal (both while pretending to be Husbear). He's on their "crap list" but does not know it yet. :D

The vape wasn't as bad as I would have thought. It was quite warm, which was why I stuck with the CE2s for so long. I've switched to the bottom-coils for the (IMO) better taste.
Maybe with juices that need more heat to release the flavors (from what I've read, tobaccos, coffees), this could be a viable option (with adequate safety). I think a box mod with a 25C lipo battery may be better than a tube mod with IMRs; but I'm not an electrical engineer or a battery expert.

OK, not a convert; but didn't really burn the juice, although seemed on the edge - no "great flavor"; no "amazing clouds" of vapor.

  • 28 gauge Kanthal A1 wire
  • 3/4 wrap on 2.5mm wood shaft from large cotton swab
  • 0.8Ω measured on the Vamo (multimeter here at work sucks, has ~0.4-0.5Ω zero - this read 0.9-1.0Ω. Vamo agrees with multimeter at home for the most part)
  • cotton ball cotton wick
  • Phoenix (Chinese) dripping atty
  • 0 mg/mL 12% TPA peppermint in 80/20 PG/VG juice - my ADV w/o nic

3.7 V with 0.2V drop under power - 16.9 watts (taste meh)
4.2 V with 0.2V drop under power - 21.8 watts (taste on edge of 'too much power')


ETA:
Took it up to 4.3V - worked, not much different than 4.2V in taste/vapor - 22.9 watts
Took it up to 4.4V - module shut down - this would have been 24 watts which is as much as the source is rated for (current would have been 5.5A)

Guess I would need to up the VG % to 'blow amazing clouds' :rolleyes: - who woulda thunk that? :lol:

Wow. On a REGULATED (and safer) device too. Can ya imagine that! (Which was my main point BTW CES). So .....ROFL. Good going Catt! Please publish in the SLR thread(s)!
