Please let us know whatever you find out! I've bad my eye out for high voltage auto big batts and so far there is only the echo, nd that five second cut off is a deal breaker for me.
Do you know what the cut off is on this model?
Cyrus, I have a PM out to DonDaBoom, but his last post was a long time ago.
We might have to sort this out for ourselves.
I *think* (but I might be wrong) that since the last time the 801 was discussed here at length was before it had evolved into the HV (High Voltage, one has to assume) had arrived.
Before the 801 came out with a 'HV' version, I think it was the industry standard of output of the time; around 2.7 to 3.2 (under load).
It has increased, but so have the atomizers' resistance.
I haven't got a reading on the resistance, because I'm too afraid to do it since it's in usage.
I can only give you my opinions and what it has worked for me. Your Mileage May Vary.
I took voltage readings off of it and got between 6.33- 6.74, in my very unsophisticated lab. The battery being an auto, I had to have help- as it has to be triggered before you can read it.
I accomplished this by having a couple friends and a mirror. I stood about a half-inch behind the eCig and sucked some air into it to trigger it, while someone else held the voltage meter pins in place, and another actual engineer took the real readings.
If this sounds funny to you, trust me, it was twice as funny to all of us, so you can factor that into the difficulty level of it as well.
I can say that there is a supposed cut-off battery for this model, it has that in the directions, however, I have never had a problem with that.
(From the Website manual)Function:
Red LED will flash when smoking and after 5 seconds continuous smoking,the green LED will flash 16 times as warning then the atomiser will stop working and enter into standby mode.
Once smoking at the suituation of short-circuit, the green LED will flash 5 times to warn you.
When smoking under the voltage of 6.5V, The green LED will warn you by flashing 10 times then enter into standby mode. Now you need to charge the battery in time.
When e-cigarette connected to the charger, the battery will being charged after 5 flashes of the green LED.
Yeah- that's never happened to me, unless it's about to need a change, which for me is every 5 hours.
