The Vmod XL 18650 Bottom Feeding Mod from Vapage.com

[Andy Thatcher]

I didn't have any plans on kicking my VMod as the advantage of an 18650 out weighed the Kick as far as I was concerned.

Thinking about it now !

Great job on the video and even better job on thinking through that Kick placement.

That was such a good video Sahil! Really good, clear, pertinent info!

Tat congrat. Tat-s congrats!

lithod, I agree with tearose. It could easily be a connector problem and perhaps it did get pushed down. Vapage will take care of you no matter what the problem is.

Happy Vapes all~

I broke out my stock of Resurrectors this morning. Haven't used them since getting the ProVari's and standard tanks which Boge's do such a great job with.

Put some Bounty Hunter in the bottle and.....had forgotten that somehow these compliment each other. Seems that the carto spreads the flavour more than an atty so I am getting different nuances from it that are not present with an atty.

Whatever the reason really enjoying it.

Andy, you're singing my song. I adore Ressurectors (they seem to last so long!) and I also adore BH! Good duet.

Hi guys. Have any of you tried these shorty cartos on your V mos? I am afraid they will be lost down inside the cone.

Worth a shot, Dana. The short length doesn't matter if you put a longish drip tip on it. Curious about the taste and longevity. The small capacity might work in our favor, as the way most cartos go bad is related to the filler closing in on the coil. I wonder if these use vertical or horizontal coils. The verticals tend to taste cleaner, the horizontals are harder to build well, but tend to last longer.


Yea, Kat & Andy, them Resurrectors are a tad long, but they sure do taste *clean*, and last longer than the Boges, as long as you don't overfeed or burn them. As a chain vaper I find it hard to get more than a couple of days out of a Boge, and almost twice that out of a 1.7 ohm Resurector/Rejuvenator.

Got a plane to catch tomorrow. Mixed up 220 ml of juice for my wife & I. Lufthansa. They're a pain. Only airline on which I've ever had an encounter of the DAS IST VERBOTEN kind.

 

[Andy Thatcher]

Naturlich es verboten ist.

Think they are just mini single coils.

Agree a long drip tip should deal with any issues. With I had thought of buying long 306 drip tips.

Good luck with the flight. Bit of an expert an the transatlantic route. Got so sick of it I moved here.

I finally scored a Kick, and then realized that I don't have any 18490 batteries!

I have every other battery under the sun....

I have been using this mod exclusively for some time now. However just recently I have encountered a strange phenomenon. Overnight two days ago the draw has become terribly "airy" and i get absolutely no throat hit whatsoever. I am using all the same combinations of carts and attys and juice but it is very loose draw suddenly. I gave the device a bath and checked that the o-rings are still in place and nothing seems to be amiss. Has anyone else experienced this and if so do you have any suggestions as to a course of action for remedying this?

Well - it will work with an 18350 & some spacers in an 18650 mod----but it won't last very long!

I had a similar problem and it turned out to be the inner-lower o-ring. It looked okay, but when I took it out it was heavily decayed and had actually split. It sounds like you checked the o-ring, but it might be worth making sure. I also wash the mod in warm water (all parts and battery removed) to clean the inner chamber.

Let us know what you find!

This thread is very large so forgive me if this has been covered. I have a kick on the way, and would like to know what I will need to do to make it function with the VMod XL. Thanks in advance.

If you go find post 2553 and read forward a bit, you will see lots of Kick mod discussion and pictures of a few versions.

The key is that the little brass wire spring of the kick needs to touch a good conducting metal that is also attached to the ground (below the spring).

Anyone have some of that thin copper "tape" they could spare for tearose?

After seeing your post I decided to try it. Opened a fresh pack of 1.7 XL Resurrectors and put one in. Will not fire. Tried all five of them and none will fire on my Vmod. Obviously they are not making connection. Anyone else run into this?

Thanks

 

[Andy Thatcher]

Are they the XL's or normal Resurrectors that are longer than the Boge's ?

Haven't tried the XL's on the VMod so alas can't comment.

Do they work on other mod's ?

 

[AlmightyDun]

Talked to Brian about my malfunctioning VMOD and he's going to be sending me out a new chassis immediately. I've also placed an order for an XL and hope to get my wife to finally quit the analogs and come over to the light side. Everything I've read about the excellent customer service is an understatement. Vapage, as well as Brian, really know how to treat a customer well. Can't wait to get my complimentary clothes for the inconvenience!

They are the Smok Tech XL's from Crystal Clear Vaping. They work fine on my eGo batts and Lavatube. Maybe I need to pull the center post out a little on them?

 

[tearose50]

I've had to pull the pin out a bit once and awhile -- for various mods.

For the vmod -- I sometimes turn a bit more, until it is tight. The threads need a little breaking in time. I had to do that at first---but not now.

 

[Andy Thatcher]

Try as tearose suggests and let us know.

Not had the problem so would be useful info.
