They're really closeby, he's about 5 mins from college pt from what I've seen lol. Is there another mod maker out here that I don't know about? That would be cool.

They described him as an older guy, he makes more than ecig mods there

I think it's this place:
Nova Instrument Corporation
12901 18th Ave, Flushing, NY
(718) 445-6541 ‎

says Flushing...on the border of CP I guess

Though the FAQ didn't specifically recommend either Red or Black 16340's over the other, most users seem to prefer the black AW ICR 16340's which are 3.7 volts - not the lower-voltage RCR123A's.

However, a quick bit of research finds that there are batteries out there labelled as "RCR123A" both in both 3.0 volt and 3.7 volt ... and some manufacturers refer to their products as "RCR123/16340" regardless of the voltage. Which might make sense to them since the packages are largely the same, but it makes things confusing for some of us since we can't even say, "Just use 16340's" and be sure someone will invariably find the right thing.

Another aspect of this (for some folks, not all, and not pointing any fingers) that I find frustrating is that people can become SO wrapped up in saving a buck or two on batteries, or frustrated with limited availability of specific makes/models, that they end up looking at stuff outside the recommended parameters and finding, buying or using products with incorrect specifications or not intended for a particular use. Not only is that confusing for all, it is time-consuming to those of us trying to ensure no one buys something they won't ultimately be unhappy with ... or worse, that is potentially unsafe.

Hopefully more folks can see now why it is SO much easier to just make one recommendation of what you KNOW will work well and be done with it!

Anywho, there are already several updates and add-ons to the FAQ. But I'm not going to do daily updates unless information is found to be drastically incorrect, misleading or unsafe (which I do not think is the case, yet). And I'm not going to turn it into a "Battery FAQ" -- there are already plenty of those out there if one takes the time to find them.

I will do a bit more research and thinking on how to make the battery section more comprehensive and clear for the next update.

These are the batteries I got....I assume they will handle the voltage the Bb will out out. Are these the recommended? It says 3.7 volts. What is even more confusing is that the battery says ICR but the link says RCR...

Well the plati-dip was a complete and total failure, luckily it peeled right off. But did another sanding job and really like this look now. Hopefully you can see it in the pics.

That is very nice!!! Can you give us the exact sandpaper you used and technique

 

[Brutus Buckeye]

300 grit wet/dry (did it dry) sandpaper and just rubbed it all in one direction. Taped off the carbon fiber plates and taped up the air holes and drip tip hole, took about 30 minutes

 

[Crocky]

Well, this should last about 2 days after the BB arrives

Wish they had something lower than 24mg how do you go about diluting that. I want easy . Went to wizard labs and as you mentioned it is just OG or VG, Gues I can get equal amounts of each from wozard labs in 12mg then combine.

You can dilute it with VG or PG to get your strength and you can use this eJuice Recipe Calculator to help you out.

Does it do a good job at hiding fingerprints?

Yeah fingerprints are no longer an issue, still shows any tiny scratches but not bad, like the satin look much better. Still trying to come up with a way to completely black it out though.

Thank you. That calculator is nice. Thinking I would want to dilute it with pg/vg though so looks like I would need some pg and vg without nic and myfreedomsmokes does not sell that either . Seems it will be easiest to order from wizard labs at 120ml 12mg pg and 120ml 12mg vg and the spilt it up

 

[AnilomNor]

NP! wizard labs also has VG and PG with out Nicotine.

[SilentEcho13]

Sorry for the late response, but yup order it low and dilute with PG and VG. The calculator is definitely a great resource, diluting isn't too tough either

You can also email MFS to see if they can make you a lower nic solution. Chances are they mix it in house, so they might even be able to hook you up!

MyFreedomSmokes does sell both PG and VG, along with unflavored Nic. Look under Misc. DIY Supplies link on homepage.

For nicotine base I recommend RTS Vapes. Coupon code FIRSTORDER for 20% off nic bases makes it cheaper and I'm pretty sure if you wait long enough between orders it might even be used more than once.

My PG/VG came from essentialdepot.com. Haunt their "ON SPECIAL - 50-70% Off" and "ON SPECIAL - Free Shipping" links until you find deals you can live with. They have a running deal for 1 gallon PG + 1 gallon VG with free shipping. If you will eventually use that much, it's a good deal consider what it costs to ship 16+ pounds of product.
