The only protected I'd ever try in a GRAND is the AW 2200MAH. In the woodvils, I'd only go with the IMR. The AW 2200MAH has the button top unlike the 2600s and 3100s. It is a little longer but there is just enough space in the coil to still drop down. Big Hitter and I have both used it as well as a few others. You can get them at lighthound.com for a good price. I get 12 good hours out of an AW IMR 1600MAH but I can go almost 18 with the AW 2200MAH on a 2.0 Ohm atty. With a 2.2 Ohm Joye 510 I used to go for 2 full days without a change. I believe the IMRs weren't available when I got started so we all used something larger. The IMR 2000MAH maybe my next alternative but intial testing didn't cause the forum to make a switch. Brew

Brand new Grands should be available within the next week or two. The AW IMR 18650 (1600 mAh) is the recommended battery for the Grand, especially if you're into low resistance attys and/or cartos. Be wary of the longish protected 18650's. They fully compress the spring and don't allow it to collapse and break the circuit in the event of a short.

i like cisco too , but these are half the price and sometimes that matters

I'm with you on the Joye attys--both LR 510 and 306's give me fine service. I can't remember the last time I had one that was DOA. Granted some last longer than others but I usually get several months out of a 3-atty rotation before I have to replace one. I mean.......they are nothing like Ciscos that apparently last for a year or longer, but they work pretty well for me.:)

That we are and it's nice having a compadre with a 45 at my back. :thumbs: It would be good to meet you at the next City Council Meeting on the 16th. We could use all the firepower we can get. Brew

So on my way home from dinner, my wife and I got flat tire on the interstate. I was very glad I was there to change it, so she didn't have to call a tow truck. That would have sent my vv reo fund over the edge, it's already suffering since we have to buy a new tire :glare:

I understand and that's all right.

:offtopic: I used to collect but 9mm was more my thing. 127gr Rangers out of a 3.5" - 4" barrel produced more than enough documented results to make me feel safe.

I'm going to try and put together a vape meet later this spring/early summer once Mike at the Indy Vapor Shop has time to be involved. I'll make sure to include you in the blast to us Hoosiers. Brew

There's a 4th option...glass or pyrex tips. Keeps it cool while keeping it clear. I also like the "cleaner" flavor i get out of it.

Hi! I've been eavesdropping around here tonite ( tho I skipped to about three pages back from here...I'd be 100 yrs. old if I tried to start form the start) And I'm glad I'm snooping around cuz I didn't know about glass or pyrex tips,...so miss font of info, where do I get them? ( I like the idea of a cleaner flavor, right now I believe I'm kinda tasting the delrin rubber along with the AWESOME TH!

Well tomorrow will be a good test day for me... I am leaving the provari at home and taking my Mini with me as my only piece of vape kit. I have a backup batty and the other one from that pair fully charged. Should be good to go honestly.

I can see that I wasted a lot of juice yesterday night over squonking, but as of using it 75% of today, no massive over flow and no flooding. Not as hard as I had thought it to be.

I must attend to my slumber. I took a personal day tomorrow- mainly to have a small respite from the drama llama that has been grazing at work. May actually hit the store across town to see what they have in stock. I told the guys there I would drop off an Ego Stardust... I feel like one of the stores in town should give me a part time job (they could pay in nic juice).

Anywhos. Thanks for being so welcoming and, well, generally awesome the past few days. I really appreciate the question answering. I really feel like a new member of a community in this thread. That is rad.

Definitely planning on a Saturday afternoon meet near Morse reservoir. I already spoke with the owner of Lakehouse tavern and she said it's a go anytime I'd like. We'll have a full menu available and a bartender...Pay bar of course. If it goes late they have live entertainment Fridays and Saturdays. Decent bands and a dance floor. Brew

The best Tips are Trippy Tips and they're a little hard to come by this is the site Home page
you got to sign up for the news letter then they send you an email about 1 hour before the sale and its first come first served and they sell out super fast:2c:

Good evening Reoville:)
